1. Go to DashboardClients
2. Click
3. Fill in client details and save

Required Information:

Next Steps:

Configure Your Advertiser Account

Advertisers represent individual websites or brands within a client account. Each advertiser has its own tracking configuration and platform integrations.

🎯 Pro Tip:

Use separate advertiser accounts for different websites, brands, or marketing campaigns to maintain clean data separation and attribution.

Advertiser Configuration:

Basic Information:
  • • Business name
  • • Primary website URL
  • • Industry category
  • • Tracking preferences
Domain Configuration:
  • • API domain (optional)
  • • Library domain (optional)

✅ Quick Setup Recommendation:

Start with your top 2 platforms (typically Meta and Google) to validate your setup. You can add additional platforms later without affecting existing tracking.
