What Is A Dynamic Offer Postback URL?
A dynamic offer postback URL is an alternative solution to providing your advertiser with multiple offer-specific postback URL’s. Typically, a new postback URL is generated per Offer that you create and will contain a hardcoded Offer ID value.
This alternative method leverages a CAKE token that is placed in the advertiser’s landing page to dynamically send the CAKE Offer ID and Request ID as a single value. This enables your advertiser to deploy a single Postback URL for server tracking across multiple offers.
What Is The #oreqid# Token?
#oreqid# is a token that is required when configuring a dynamic offer postback URL. This token combines the Offer ID and Request ID into a single value. When you click on a standard CAKE tracking link, you can see the structure in the Landing Page URL has the Offer ID first, then the Request ID value second, separated by a dash. Because this value includes the Offer ID, it eliminates the need to hardcode the Offer ID (o= parameter) on multiple postbacks.

How To Configure A Dynamic Offer Setup
To configure a dynamic offer setup, follow these steps:
- Ensure the advertiser can capture and store at least 1 dynamic value passed to their landing page(s)
- Have the advertiser identify the parameter that will receive the oreqid dynamic value
- Add #oreqid# to that parameter on the Offer Redirect Parameters field.
- Provide the advertiser with the dynamic offer postback structure (see above)
- Run a test to ensure the oreqid value is returned into the r= of the postback
