Understanding the Embedded Videos Feature

The Embedded Videos feature in Trackfinity allows you to upload videos that affiliates can embed into their webpages, helping them effectively promote your offers. Once you upload a video, Trackfinity automatically generates a tracking link and embed code for your affiliates to use.



Uploading a Downloadable Video

Follow these steps to upload and manage downloadable videos:

  1. Access Content:

    • Go to the Content category to view existing creative types.

    • Click the View button from the actions dropdown menu to see the available downloadable videos.

  2. Add a New Video:

    • Click the Add Creative button to open a setup pop-up.

Displaying an Embedded Video

Before affiliates can use your new embedded video in promotions, you need to create a SHOW rule. Here’s how:

  1. Add a Rule:

    • Click the Actions button for the video and select Add a new rule from the dropdown menu.

    • On the next page, click the Add Rule button.

  2. Set the Rule Type:

    • Select SHOW from the options dropdown.

  3. Choose the Scope:

    • Specify whether the video should be enabled for selected affiliates, commissions, and offers, or for all of them.

Once the SHOW rule is created, affiliates can access the link code for the video from their Creatives page.
