Webhooks for Marketplace Affiliates

To get started, navigate to "Your Name" > Edit Your Profile. Within your profile, scroll all the way to the bottom to find the webhooks section. Click "Create New Webhook"

A new window will pop up like the one below.

In the popup, you can choose a topic for receiving webhook notifications. Once a topic is selected, enter the URL where Refersion should send the webhook data. To see webhooks in action, you can set up a test URL to receive the webhooks. RequestCatcher is a great way to test for free.

Webhook Topics

The following events can be send to your URL endpoint from Refersion:

• New Conversion
• Conversion Approved
• Conversion Denied
• New Payment

You can configure multiple webhooks and specify which topics/events you wish to send to each URL. You can also select All Topics, in which case all the events listed above will send out to the designated URL(s).

Note: If you promote for multiple brands, you'll receive multiple webhooks per topic. For example, if you promote for 5 brands, you'll receive 5 "New Conversion" webhooks - one for each brand.
