Remerge utilizes the IGAWorks: Adbrix Original click tracking link to achieve the following goals:
- Ensure the most optimal user experience by deep linking the user directly to a specific in-app location.
- Notify IGAWorks: Adbrix Original of a Remerge click.
The following guide takes you through the process of Android tracking link generation with IGAWorks: Adbrix Original. To support you with an especially user-friendly implementation, we have split this guide into two parts: the first is meant for your Developer, while the latter, Marketer. In case of any questions, please reach out to your Remerge Account Manager.
