Deep Linking

All Apple Affiliate tracking links take the SEO friendly format of:

http://aos.prf.hn/click/camref:XXXX

These can be found in the account management console by clicking on “Admin” and then clicking on “Tracking”.

Explanation of link parameters

Within your publisher links there are a number of parameters you can append. Each parameter is delimited by a forward slash '/' and consists of a key-pair value with a colon ':' separating each key from value.

camref: - This is your unique ID for that particular Apple market. This is used to track clicks and award sales for your account.

destination: - Full http deeplink destination.

pubref: - This parameter allows you to enter your own unique reference or link ID to identify a click. This reference can be tracked from initial click through to sale and is of type VARCHAR (100)

Example To create a deeplink to deliver traffic to

http://www.apple.com/au/shop/buy-ipad/ipad-pro

With a click ID of 'product1'

The full deeplink would be

http://aos.prf.hn/click/camref:XXXX/pubref:product1/destination:http://www.apple.com/au/shop/buy-ipad/ipad-pro

Where XXXX is replaced by your unique camref.

Alternatively using the console under Admin->tracking you could use the real time Deeplink generator. Simply enter the deeplink url into the Deeplink field and the Tracking Link will be automatically constructed for you to copy and paste.
