How to Test an Offer in CAKE for Tracking Accuracy

Once you have completed your offer setup and your advertiser has placed the conversion/event pixel(s), it is best practice to test the offer prior to having live traffic. The testing process will enable you to verify that clicks, conversion/events, and leads are all tracking properly. This process can be done by you, your advertiser, or anyone who is provided with the URL to the testing page.

To locate the testing environment from the Offer card, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the Home tab
2. Click the Test button 

Once you are on the test page, follow these steps:

1. Click the Clear button to clear any existing CAKE cookies 
2. Click the Turn On button to enable Test Mode 
3. Click on the encrypted link to be redirected to the advertiser's landing page
4. On the landing page, complete all necessary steps in the funnel to trigger the conversion
5. Return to the testing page and click See The Results

After completing all the steps in the conversion funnel, navigate back to the testing page and click the See The Results button. Click details will be shown in the first column and conversion/event/lead details will be shown in the second column.
