Like CJ req
quires that yo
ou send the tracking id witth the sid parrameter (sid=trackingId) an
nd Link sharee requires tthat you send
d the tracking id with the m
mid parameteer (mid= trackkingId) So all you have to do iss write the su
uffix for each ttype of url onn this page. U
Use {TRACKING
G_ID} as a plaace d is taken to ssuch a store site, holder forr sending the click trackingg id. When a vvisitor clicks tto a price and
this { TRACKING_ID} is replaced by tthe click id an
nd thus whenn the store sen
nds back the csv containin
ng purchasess, this click id is returned there to identtify who the vvisitor is, and thus award tthem the cash
