Tracking Links is designed to let you track the different sources that are driving sales for your event. It provides a way to create and share unique URLs to your page that will track how many sales come in through each unique link. This may be commonly referred to as affiliate link tracking or promo link tracking.

💡Tip: Tracking Links can also be used with conditional logic actions to show or hide options on your page, or adjust price, etc. Learn more here.

How to create tracking links

  • From the Pages screen click the pencil icon on the page you'd like to add tracking links to

  • Hover your mouse over the Promote tab in the top menu bar and select Tracking Links from the dropdown

  • Click the Create Tracking Link button

  • Enter a Name of the Tracking Link. This is often the promoter's name or an organization's name or some way you'd like to identify this tracking link. It is for internal reporting purposes only.

  • Enter the code you'd like to use for this tracking link and click Create Link.

💡 Tip: The code you add will be appended to the end of your page URL for all to see. It will also appear in reports. For example, if my code is 1051, the URL might look like this: https://events.ticketspice.com/music-fest?t=1051

  • Click the copy button to copy the URL and share it

  • Clicking the pencil will allow you to edit and the trash can to delete it

Note: If the page is not published yet, only the code syntax is displayed. Publishing will give the full URL

⚠️Warning: Deleting a tracking link will also delete the associated data
