How Can We Work On CPA Smartlink?

 A Smartlink (sometimes called a Smart Link or Direct Link) is a single affiliate URL that automatically redirects each user to the most relevant and highest-performing offer based on factors like GEO, device, OS, traffic source type, and earnings-per-click (EPC) optimization.

Complete registration and wait for approval. Some networks require initial performance with direct offers before granting Smartlink access.

Create the Smartlink:

• Navigate to the Smartlinks section or "Direct Links" dashboard.

• Name your Smartlink campaign.

• Select global trafficback or per-GEO fallback (where non-target conversions go)  

• Choose which traffic source this Smartlink will target.

Choose Traffic Sources:

• Start with broad traffic: push, popunder, domain redirects—especially pop/push formats often work best and cheapest (~$0.005 CPC)

 Smartlink Best Practices:

Practice	Why it Matters
Use broad targeting	Allows algorithm to learn effectively across traffic
High-quality traffic sources    Higher conversion rate,   faster learning, better EPC
Enable tracking & postbacks	Enables precise measurement and fine-grained optimization
Extract top-performing offers	Scaling top offers via direct campaigns yields higher payouts
Trafficback configuration	Helps monetize residual/non-targeted traffic effectively

What’s Next After Smartlink Success?

• Identify winning GEOs, traffic sources, landers, and offers.

• Move those high-performers into dedicated direct campaigns for higher ROI.

• Continue using Smartlink on low-converting or undifferentiated traffic.

• Always keep tracking tightly integrated and test new traffic sources gradually.
