Create Referral

The POST /v1/referral endpoint is used to create a new referral with the provided tracking ID.

A Referral is used to simulate a user in your platform in order to better track the conversions, you should create a referral when a user signs up after using a Partner's link/code.

Request Body

• tracking_id (string, required): The unique tracking ID for the referral. You can get this Tracking ID from the click event registered in the GET /v1/:code/hit route.

• external_id (string, optional): This is the ID of the user in your platform, it is not required, but strongly recommended in order to make the relation easier and better track the users, you can either send us the external_id or save the referral ID in your platform to maintain the relationship.

• user_agent (string, optional): The user's user_agent when signing up.

• ip_address -> The user's IP Address when signing up

If you are creating the referral from your back-end, it is strongly recommended to send the user's user_agent and ip_address in order to have better results in the Fraud Detection System, if you are sending it from the front-end or using our SDK, we'll automatically get all headers needed from the client.
