Use Case

For Affiliate & Partner Networks

You aggregate traffic from dozens of affiliates and route it to buyers. That only scales if partners can onboard themselves, submit safely, and get paid transparently — without seeing your filters or each other. Lead Router is the partner network layer: a self-serve portal, campaign posting keys, payouts, postbacks, and cross-partner dedup.

What Breaks At Scale

Running a partner network is an operations problem

Four things that turn a growing affiliate base into a full-time job — unless the portal handles them for you.

Every partner is a manual onboarding

Without a self-serve portal, each new affiliate means provisioning logins, keys, and posting instructions by hand. That overhead caps how many partners you can actually run.

Partners can see too much

Raw rejection reasons and unfiltered API responses let partners reverse-engineer your filters, your pricing, and each other’s activity. A leaky portal is a competitive liability.

The same lead gets sold twice

When two partners send the same person, you either pay both payouts and eat the dupe, or you sell a buyer a lead they already have. Cross-partner dedup has to happen at intake.

You optimize on volume, not conversions

Without postbacks and conversion tracking, partners chase raw lead counts. You need CPA postbacks and platform conversions so everyone optimizes on what actually monetizes.

How Lead Router Solves It

A partner network that runs itself

Self-serve onboarding, safe submissions, transparent payouts, and conversion tracking — the full affiliate-network stack.

Self-serve partner portal

Each partner logs into their own portal: an offers marketplace to browse and request campaigns, their posting specs, API keys, payout history, a posting log of every submission, sub-users, and webhooks. Partners create their own sub-users and keys without you provisioning each one by hand.

Campaign-level posting keys and API

Every campaign carries its own posting key. Partners post leads with that key as a bearer token — it identifies the campaign and the partner in one credential. Scoped partner API keys read campaigns, leads, payouts, and posting logs. See the lead API.

Payouts and payout reports

Payouts are tracked per partner with reports in the portal. Each campaign carries its own payout terms, and the posting log records what was accepted, rejected, or paid, so partners can reconcile against your numbers instead of emailing for a spreadsheet. Roll it up in reporting.

Partners see only what they should

Partner API responses are stripped to an allowlist, and rejection reasons are sanitized so partners cannot reverse-engineer your filters or other partners’ activity. The portal is self-serve without being a data leak.

Cross-partner deduplication

The engine deduplicates across partners at intake, so the same person submitted through two sources does not get paid twice or sold twice. See lead dedup.

Postbacks and CPA conversion tracking

Configure CPA postback URLs that fire when a lead converts, and push conversions to Google Ads and to Facebook via the Conversions API (CAPI). Partners and your own media buying optimize on downstream conversions, not just raw lead volume. Pair it with the referral program to grow the partner base.

Frequently Asked

FAQ

Questions network operators ask before moving their partners onto a new platform.

Do partners get their own login and portal?

Yes. Each partner gets a self-serve portal with an offers marketplace, their campaigns and posting specs, API keys, payout history, a posting log of every submission, sub-users, and webhooks. Partners can create sub-users and their own API keys without you provisioning each one manually.

How do partners authenticate lead submissions?

Each campaign has its own posting key. A partner posts leads to the submission endpoint with that key as a bearer token, which identifies both the campaign and the partner. Partners can also generate scoped API keys from their portal to read campaigns, leads, payouts, and posting logs.

How are partner payouts handled?

Payouts are tracked per partner with payout reports available in the portal. Each campaign carries its own payout terms, and the posting log records what was accepted, rejected, or paid so partners can reconcile against your numbers.

Do you fire postbacks and conversion pixels?

Yes. You can configure CPA postback URLs that fire when a lead converts, and push conversions to Google Ads and to Facebook via the Conversions API (CAPI). That lets partners and your own media buying optimize on downstream conversion events, not just raw lead volume.

How do you prevent partners from seeing each other’s data or gaming rejections?

Partner API responses are stripped to an allowlist, so partners see only the fields they should. Rejection reasons shown to partners are sanitized so they cannot reverse-engineer your filters or other partners’ activity. Cross-partner deduplication also stops the same lead being sold twice across different sources.
