Publishers
Publishers are the traffic sources that promote your offers. In Integr8, publisher operations live under Partners in the sidebar. From there you create accounts, configure how each publisher gets paid, run payouts, and manage per-publisher controls like custom payouts, blocked sub IDs, and coupon codes.
Why it matters
Section titled “Why it matters”A correctly configured publisher account is the difference between paying the right amount on time and either losing trust or losing money. Billing details determine whether a publisher even shows up on the payouts run, and per-publisher controls are how you reward strong sources and contain weak ones without breaking the global offer setup.
How the section is organized
Section titled “How the section is organized”Under Partners, the app has three screens. The docs sidebar follows the same structure.
Publishers Management
Section titled “Publishers Management”Create and manage publisher accounts from Partners > Publishers Management. Open any publisher to work through its detail tabs:
| Tab | Docs |
|---|---|
| General | Publisher setup |
| Sub IDs | Sub IDs |
| Custom Payouts | Custom payouts |
| Throttling | Throttling |
| Blocked Sub IDs | Blocked sub IDs |
| Publisher Users | Publisher setup |
| Settings | Publisher setup, Billing |
Account creation, activation, visibility, and publisher user invites are covered in Publisher setup. Billing is configured from the publisher Settings tab. Publishers without billing cannot be paid.
Coupon codes
Section titled “Coupon codes”Coupon codes attribute conversions to a publisher when no tracking link is in play. Manage them from Partners > Coupon Codes.
Publisher payments
Section titled “Publisher payments”Publisher payments is where you review and export payouts each cycle. Open it from Partners > Publisher Payments.
Common pitfalls
Section titled “Common pitfalls”- Forgetting to fill in billing details before the first payment cycle. The publisher quietly disappears from the payouts report.
- Blocking a publisher entirely when only one sub ID is the problem. Use blocked sub IDs instead.
- Using raw sub ID strings in tracking links without creating them in Sub IDs first. Named sub IDs unlock reporting, filtering, and block rules across the platform.
- Leaving Enable Postback Management on for publishers you do not trust. The create flow turns this on by default. Some publishers will create misconfigured postbacks that cause silent attribution loss. Disable it per publisher unless the operator is trusted.
Related
Section titled “Related”- Custom payouts override the global offer payout for individual publishers.
- Affiliate postback setup configures the URLs that fire to publisher tracking systems.
