Add a New Custom Parameter
First, go to Offers > select an offer in the list > Custom Parameters. To add a new Parameter, click on the + button. You can also go to Manage > Add Custom Parameter.
In the window, fill in the following fields:
- Status — Active or Inactive. Select the Active status to make the custom parameter available immediately, and the Inactive status to disable the custom parameter for now.
- Affiliate — Pick an affiliate or leave blank if you want these parameters to be effective for all affiliates.

Note:
The Throttle Rate to Pending (Rejected or Trash) is used to optimize interaction with advertisers. After setting a specific rate, conversions have a certain probability of transitioning to the pending/rejected/trash status during creation. Thus, for a small number of conversions, the percentage and actual count of pending/rejected/trash conversions may not match, but for larger volumes, they should be as close as possible to the set rate.
As for statistics, conversions are counted with the status in which they were actually recorded. For example, if a conversion is set to Rejected, it will be counted as a rejected conversion in statistics.
Don’t forget to click the Add button to apply changes.
