Influencer/Affiliate
Klar tracks influencers and affiliates via UTM parameters and discount codes. For the best results, both should be set up — UTMs alone give you attribution, discount codes alone give you only a partial picture.
Requirements
Three things need to be true for accurate influencer tracking in Klar:
Use UTM parameters on all influencer links — not just discount codes. Discount codes alone only tell you about direct purchases; UTMs give you the full attribution picture.
Enter each influencer along with their UTM parameters and discount codes into the Influencer CRM or Influencer/Affiliate Google Sheet.
Use a unique UTM value per influencer. At least one parameter — typically
utm_term— must be unique to each influencer so Klar can identify them individually.
Recommended UTM setup
If you don't have a UTM strategy for influencers yet, or want to standardise your existing setup, use this configuration:
⚠️ Replace all dynamic values with actual values before sending links to influencers. Do not use # in any naming convention — it cuts off the rest of the URL parameters.
Parameter | Value | Type |
| Platform name (e.g. | Dynamic |
|
| Static |
| Campaign name (e.g. | Dynamic |
| Influencer name (e.g. | Dynamic |
