NEW! Flipkart Affiliate Program introduces App Install tracking/attribution
As you are aware, due to the closure of Flipkart’s mobile website, all the mobile traffic being directed by our affiliate partners will land on Flipkart’s Mobile Apps (if the app is already installed) OR it’ll be redirected to the Flipkart app page on respective OS platform's App Store (if the app is not installed). With the trend of increased app usage in today’s mobile savvy world (especially India), and the attribution of Flipkart App installs as well as orders placed through Flipkart’s Apps, this is a good opportunity for our affiliate partners to earn more commissions.
- In case Flipkart App is NOT installed, the user will be redirected to the Flipkart app page on respective OS’ App Store (Play Store in case of Android, App Store in case of iOS, Windows Store in case of Windows) and affiliate tracking/attribution (for Flipkart App install^) will happen if its installed by the user on his/her mobile device (in such cases, the install will be classified as ‘Fallback’ install)
- In case Flipkart App is already installed, then the user will be taken to the Flipkart App (Android/ iOS/ Windows) and s/he lands on that specific home/ category/ product page (as per the affiliate link) and affiliate tracking/attribution will happen for the order(s) placed on Flipkart App.
For more details, please refer to the What's New! section in your affiliate account homepage or CLICK HERE to know more about how mobile app tracking works.
In short, if the user downloads the Flipkart App after clicking on an affiliate link promoting Flipkart products / deals, affiliates will be paid for every eligible app install (‘Fallback’ installs). If the user already has the app, then s/he is taken to the app & any purchase is done, then the order is attributed to the affiliate and you will be paid as per the category-wise commission rates for Mobile App orders. This ensures that our affiliate partners get paid for every call-to-action (be it a sale or an install) from the mobile traffic directed by them to Flipkart.
NEW! Direct Install (CPI) campaign for Flipkart Apps (Android/ iOS/ Windows)
In addition to being paid for all the eligible ‘Fallback’ installs, Flipkart Affiliate Program has also launched its Direct Install campaign which provides all our affiliate partners to run direct CPI campaigns for Flipkart App installs through owned/paid media inventory (preferably non-incent and good quality incent campaigns). In such cases, the install will be classified as ‘Direct’ install. Flipkart Affiliate Program is the 1st affiliate program in India to launch CPI campaigns for app downloads, apart from the regular CPS campaign for driving sales/orders. While running Direct Install campaigns, please ensure to adhere to the following conditions:-
- Targeting Geography – only India
- Target Devices- Android (version 3 & above), iOS, Windows
- Preferably non-incent and good quality incent campaigns (Financial penalties will be levied and/or suspension of affiliate account in case of wrong / exaggerated / misleading / false communication messages while promoting incent campaigns for app downloads)
- Tracking of installs will be as per 3rd party MMP (Mobile Measurement Platform) data^
The affiliate url for CPI campaign, App Installation Report (‘Report’ as well as ‘Download’ section), etc is available in your affiliate account panel itself. Pls copy/use the Affiliate URL for Direct Install (CPI) campaign from your affiliate account panel (homepage). You also have the option of adding/appending 1 SubID parameter (&affExtParam1=subid value) at the end of this URL for granular tracking of Direct Install (CPI) campaign [Example: http://affiliate.flipkart.com/install-app?affid=test&affExtParam1=ABC123]. For the detailed App Installs Report which has the break-up of Direct Install campaign as per SubID (affExtParam1), you can go to Downloads --> App Installs Report to generate the csv report.
^NOTE- Flipkart uses 3rd party MMP (Mobile Measurement Platform) data for tracking its mobile app installs. Affiliate attribution for Flipkart mobile app installs will happen only if the below 2 conditions are satisfied:
- Only fresh installs will be considered and not reinstalls (this is based on Device ID mapping being done through the MMP)
- The user has to launch/open the Flipkart App within a period of 14 days after installing the app on his/her device in order for the affiliate attribution to happen
