Tracking Your Referrals and Conversions

As a LocalZ Community Affiliate (LCA), your Affiliate Dashboard gives you the tools to track how your outreach is performing. You’ll be able to see how many people are clicking your referral link or scanning your QR code, which businesses have signed up, and how much commission you’ve earned so far.

What You Can Track

Your Affiliate Dashboard will show:

1. Clicks and Traffic

• The number of times your referral link has been clicked

• How often your QR code has been scanned (if tracked through landing page hits)

2. Referrals and Conversions

• How many businesses signed up through your link or code

• Which ones have completed a paid subscription

• Which referrals are still pending

3. Commission Breakdown

• Total commissions earned

• Cleared commissions (eligible for payout)

• Pending commissions (still within the 14-day clearing period)

• Lifetime earnings

• Payout history

Why Tracking Matters

• Helps you see what types of outreach are working best

• Encourages you to focus on high-performing channels (e.g., email vs. social media)

• Keeps your fundraising team motivated with real-time results

• Shows how your recurring income grows with each successful referral

Tips for Better Results

• Check your dashboard weekly to stay up to date

• Use what’s working — if you’re getting lots of clicks but low conversions, refine your message

• Follow up with businesses who clicked your link but didn’t finish signing up

• Share your results with your fundraising team to stay energized

Reminder About the 60-Day Cookie Window

If someone clicks your link but doesn’t sign up right away, you’ll still get credit as long as they subscribe within 60 days — no need to worry if they take a little time to decide.
