Set up a server-to-server postback
The one postback URL to give your advertiser or source network so conversions flow into Theory Rd.
A postback is a server-to-server ping fired the moment a conversion happens. It carries back the click_id you passed on the click, so Theory Rd. can attribute the sale. Your postback URL:
https://trk.theoryrd.com/api/postback?key=YOUR_NETWORK_KEY&click_id={CLICK_ID}&order_id={ORDER_ID}&revenue={AMOUNT}The parameters
- key — your network postback key (Settings → API). Required.
- click_id — the id Theory Rd. put on the outbound click (echo it back). Required.
- order_id — the advertiser order/transaction id (dedup key).
- revenue — sale amount / what you earn. payout / sale_amount also accepted.
- event_key — sale (default), lead, install, etc. — matches your offer goals.
Fire on approved
Set the postback to fire when the conversion is approved. Theory Rd. dedups on (click_id, order_id), so duplicate fires never double-count, and signature/key auth keeps it secure.
