Tracking link
A tracking link is the unique, signed URL Attribloom mints for each affiliate. When a prospect clicks it, Attribloom records a tamper-proof click and routes them to the App Store or store, carrying the attribution that later ties a conversion back to that affiliate.

Every affiliate gets a distinct link to share in a bio, video, story, or email. The link carries a signed click identifier, so a click cannot be forged or reassigned to a different affiliate.
Attribloom records the click server side and hashes the visitor IP rather than storing it raw. On the App Store the link hands off through a clipboard interstitial so the affiliate can still be resolved after the install; on the web the click is matched at checkout. No third-party cookies are involved.
Frequently asked
Can a tracking link be forged or reassigned?
No. The click identifier is signed, so a tampered or invented link does not resolve to any affiliate and earns no commission.
Does a tracking link rely on cookies?
No. The click is recorded server side and matched through a signed identifier (and, on iOS, a clipboard handoff), so it does not depend on third-party cookies.
