Link Shortening in Commerce

The Sovrn Commerce link shortening service enables publishers, editors and content creators to create and share affiliate links with their readers. 

Are these links safe? 

Yes! Sovrn Commerce uses market-leading, real-time technologies to detect and immediately block bad redirects, malware, and other threats from bad actors.

What is the difference between a sovrn.co and a redirect.viglink.com link?

Sovrn.co is a vanity URL made to shorten the length of an affiliate redirect link. This is used when the link will be fully visible on a site or when it is posted on social media. Both of these URLs are affiliated in the same way through Sovrn Commerce.

Can I use CUIDs with a shortened link? 

Yes! See how in the article: Create Links in Commerce.

I still need help.
