What multi-device affiliate attribution is useful for
Imagine the following scenario: An interested party (= potential buyer) signs up to an autoresponder on their smartphone. This means that they click on a Digistore24 promolink and then get to an opt-in form. The cookie is set on their smartphone.
The interested party then receives an email. However, they read it on the PC and click on the link to the sales page contained in the email. On the sales page, another link takes them to the order form.
Since the user has changed the device, the affiliate may not receive any commission, although they would be entitled to it. This is where multi-device affiliate attribution can be used.
By setting up multi-device affiliate attribution as a vendor, you have the advantage that you can use it to help advertise, which increases the attractiveness of your products for potential affiliates.
