You can configure several custom domains for traffic and events. This will allow you to use different domains for affiliates and advertisers.
Configuring custom domains is not an instant process because it requires admin approval. So, when you need to configure custom domains, please consider doing it at least 24 hours before using them, considering business days. We always recommend contacting your CSM if you need to configure these domains.
Traffic domains
Go to Settings >> Network >> DOMAINS >> Traffic
Here, you can create as many Traffic domains as you need. To do that:
Click on Create
Fill the form
Domain: put here your domain. Only the domain name, without HTTP or HTTPS. For instance: yourcustomtrafficdomain.com
Scope type:
Global: This domain will accept traffic from all the Affiliates
Limited: This domain will only accept traffic from some specific Affiliates.
Affiliates: If Scope type=Limited, you must configure the affiliates that can use this domain for traffic.
Click on the Save button.
Currently, the domain is in a Pending status and will require support from the tech and admin teams.
Once your domains are ready, you will receive a message from the support team.
If you own the domain, the support team will provide you with the DNS records you have to set in your DNS.
