Reports for Affiliate
To be able to use the platform effectively, Scaleo provides you with a variety of detailed reports on every aspect of the offers you promote. The following guide will walk you through the features and options of Reports available for Affiliates.
You can create detailed reports for a wide range of dates and filter them by multiple breakdowns — parameters that filter out the specific details. They help to deeply analyze the profitability of the particular offer and find out which traffic source is the most effective.

Available Reports
There are five main report categories: Statistics, Conversions, Clicks, Referrals, and Logs. Each of them provides details on the different parameters of your statistics and traffic within the offer. It will help you to control every step for higher efficiency.
- Statistics — the detailed statistics for the promoted offers. The data is broken up into smaller groups that help to track it by certain parameters.
- Conversions — the full list of conversions made through the platform with their status, offer, goal, payout, etc.
- Clicks — all the clicks registered on Scaleo with details like date, offer, goal, location, IP address, etc.
- Referrals — the list of referrals (new Affiliates brought to the network by this Affiliate) with their rate and commissions, earned from their activity.
- Logs. This section includes two tabs: Invalid Traffic and Postbacks.
- The Invalid Traffic Log allows you to see what traffic and which offers did not match the targeting settings. It can significantly help in the correct traffic setting and save money on the traffic investments.
- The Postback Log displays all the called Affiliate postbacks with their date, offer, goal, URL, and result. This data helps to analyze the correctness of settings, fix if something goes wrong, and make sure that postbacks are correctly sent to the Affiliate's platform.
