What are tracking links?

Tracking links empower you to identify the sources of your traffic, enabling you to optimize your promotional strategies effectively.

Using Infloww's Marketing Analytics features, use tracking links to identify where your traffic originates and monitor fan spending habits. These insights allow you to optimize your promotional strategies and focus on the most effective channels.

Attribution

Earnings are credited to the fan’s most recent tracking or free trial link (rolling attribution). If a fan subscribes through a new link, all future earnings are automatically attributed to that link. This ensures revenue is always tied to the fan’s current active subscription source—not any prior links.


Creating a tracking link

To create a tracking link:

  1. Go to Growth > Tracking Links and select Create link

  2. Give your link a name (this cannot be edited later)

  3. Select the channel source for where you'll use the link (e.g., TikTok, Reddit, Twitch). This will help you analyze the performance later.

  4. (Optional) Choose the list you want to add the new fans to automatically

  5. Click Create to save

Tip: By automatically adding fans to a list, you make it easier to send targeted or group messages later.

Now that you’ve set up tracking links, consider creating using free trial links to attract new fans and further analyze your promotional efforts.


Promo costs

When creating tracking links, you can manually input the promo cost for each campaign to calculate the ROI of your campaign.

To add a promo cost:

  1. Go to Growth > Tracking links

  2. Create a new tracking link, or select the ✏️ icon for the existing link you'd like to edit under Actions

  3. Input the amount spent to promote the link on other channels (e.g. sponsored Instagram posts)

  4. Click Save to confirm

The entered promo cost is used to calculate the ROI metric displayed in the table.


Organize fans by source using lists

When you set up a tracking link, you can also choose to automatically add fans to a specific list when they subscribe through that link.

Create a new fan list

You can create a new fan list in two ways:

  1. From the Create tracking link popup window

    1. Under List, open the drop-down menu and select Add new list

  2. From the tracking links overview dashboard

    1. Click on the gear icon next to the List column

    2. Click on the + New list button

Why this matters

  • You’ll immediately know where each fan came from—whether it was a paid promo, social campaign, or a specific creator collab.

  • It helps you segment fans based on source, making it easier to target future messages or offers.

  • You can use folders as mini-audience groups—perfect for Smart Lists, follow-ups, or revenue comparisons.

Example: Set up a tracking link for a shoutout from a partner creator, and assign it to the folder “Promo with Jane.” All fans who subscribe via that link will automatically be grouped into that folder.


Deactivating active campaign links

Once a campaign is complete, you can simply deactivate the tracking link.

To deactivate a tracking link:

  1. Go to Growth > Tracking links

  2. Click the three dots under the Actions column

  3. Click Deactivate

  4. You'll be prompted to confirm campaign deactivation

  5. Click Deactivate to confirm

Note: Expired campaigns will automatically be hidden from the campaign list. To view expired campaigns, toggle the Show expired switch on.
