STEP 1 — Adding Clickadu as Traffic Source
Go to Traffic Source, Menu side, and click on > + Connect new Source; from the list of options, select > Integrated DSPs
From the list displayed, look for Clickadu. To connect with them, you will need to provide only two fields.
1- API Key: Your Clickadu API Key
Where to get your API Key from Clickadu?
Log in to Clickadu and look at the left side Menu the option > API, click on it, and you will see your API key. Copy and go back to LandingTrack to paste that value in the field: APIKEY
Back on LandingTrack, paste your API Key
After clicking on the button > Connect, we have an extra step — Check API, click on it.
The slide-out will show you your credentials, check them and, if all looks good, click on the orange button> Check API
Green Check¡ means we are fully Integrated with Clickadu and we can start automating all your Campaigns but, We will suggest you add some more steps like — URL Tokens and Outgoing Postback
Now that we are synchronized with Clickadu let’s have a look at > the Edit button.
The following Parameters and Tokens will be provided by default for each Clickadu URL :
- source={zoneid} — (you need it to track the site)
- bid={cost} — how much you gonna pay for 1 impression (working for pop’s = 1 click)
- cmp={campaignid} — campaign ID as registered in their system
- b=[ban] — use it to track the banner
So, if you need to add some extra Tokens to get more details from your visits, you can have a look here:
1.2 — Postback (Optional):
We are missing only one thing to finish the full integration with Clickadu, adding their postback :
To set it up on LandingTrack, it should be like:
IMPORTANT: aid=127749 is a unique ID of each advertiser, therefore, those numbers are not to be shown exactly as it is, YOU WILL HAVE A DIFFERENT AID NUMBER.
We have only replaced the Clickadu Token ${SUBID} by {{PID}} LandingTrack one.
STEP 2 — Creating a campaign (Dimension) on LandingTrack
Go to the Offers side menu and select the Active offer/s you want to send traffic to by clicking on the checkbox. Remember that you can select one or multiple ones
Select an offer by clicking on the attached box
Once you have selected the ones you want to run click on > the Actions button and then create a dimension.

With Clickadu, we can create four types of campaigns in terms of traffic: OnClick (Popunder) — DIalog Ads/Push Up — Video & SKim

Go to your Clickadu account and create the campaign based on the target you need and do not forget to add the LandingTrack name provided for the Campaign and the URL:
Click on the left side of the MENU on Campaigns.
- Campaign Name: Remember — always the one LandingTrack provide you with
- Pricing Model: CPM: Cost per Mil impressions /SmartcCPM: dynamic CPM / SmartCPA: with a CPA Goal.

- Targeting URL: always the one LandingTrack provide you with
- Country and Bid.
Let’s move to Budget — no need as you can set it up on LandingTrack & Targeting option.
Right after adding your targeting options is time for you to decide if you want to get traffic from Anti-Adblock zones — slow connection and 3rd party traffic sources.
After submitting the Campaign just it for its approval (usually takes a few minutes), copy the Campaign ID provided by Clickadu and come back to LandingTrack
Once you have saved your campaign we should get back to LandingTrack, specifically to your Dimension — Profile and click the button sync in order to connect both sides with the Campaign ID you just copied before.
This will be your next view :
Everything has been set up already, our advice — Chill, relax and wait for the traffic to start.
