Steps to integrate affiliate networks
Locate the affiliate network you want to connect to your Sovrn account.
Log in to the affiliate network portal and locate the specific credentials for each network (see credential details for each network below).
Copy and paste your credentials into the fields on the Sovrn platform.
Once you’ve entered your network credentials, tap the ‘Verify account’ button at the bottom of the flyout.
The affiliate network's status will be ‘Pending’ until the credentials are verified. Once verified, the reporting and affiliation status will show as ‘Active.’
Once the affiliate network is ‘Active,” you may use the Commerce tools, including creating affiliate links and price comparison tools, for your direct merchant relationships. You will also see an aggregate of revenue and performance data in the Sovrn dashboard and the delivered reports.
