impact.com November 2024 publisher and creator release notes

Connect your PayPal account through OAuth

With this release, you’ll now have a simple OAuth flow to connect your verified PayPal account, making it easier and more secure for you to withdraw your earnings to PayPal.

Preview and edit Assets more easily

The Assets page (found under Content in the top nav bar, and formerly known as “Ads”) lets you see all the assets that your brands have made available — such as images, videos, coupons, and text links. When you click into any given asset, you’ll see three tabs where you can preview the asset, edit the underlying code, or add parameters to the associated tracking link. 
We realized that the previous names for the first two tabs were sometimes causing confusion, so we’ve renamed them to Preview and Asset Code.

Merging Proposals and Invites into "Applications"

Experience a more streamlined experience in the Partner UI with the merging of the Proposals and Invite screens into a single, unified “Applications” screen. This update is designed to simplify your interactions by consolidating application processes from new and existing brands in one place, allowing you to filter and prioritize applications easily.

• You can now handle applications from new and existing brands on a single screen, with options to filter based on application type.

• To help you focus on high-priority applications, new filters are available by status and category (e.g., industry type), making it easier to customize views and keep lists manageable.

• You can now apply bulk actions—such as rejecting multiple brands at once, helping to reduce list clutter quickly and efficiently.

• Added functionality includes search, date filtering, and new status and category filters, enabling you to locate relevant brands and applications faster than ever.

• When selecting an application, we have a new slide-out panel offering enriched brand data in a clean, comprehensive view for faster review.

Stay on top of things with the To-Do-List widget

Whether you use the latest task management software or a growing pile of sticky notes on your desk, you’ve got some process for keeping track of what needs doing. We hope the new To Do List widget will make that a bit easier for you.

The To Do List will appear on your dashboard once our system sees that you have a task to complete. We’re starting small — right now, the widget will only show you system-generated tasks such as to review proposals or invitations sent by brands, or to create your first tracking link for a program you’ve recently joined.

Give it a try and let us know what you think!

Enhanced Tracking Link Generator

We’ve made it easier for creators to generate tracking links that accurately reflect their campaign activity. Now, when you select a brand with active campaigns, you will immediately be prompted to choose the specific campaign and task, ensuring you use the correct tracking links every time.
