Displaying the Affiliate ID in the Landing Page URL

Adding the affiliate ID into the landing page URL is a great way to customize a page dynamically, so the content is tailored for that visitor. All you need to do is include the [aff_id] shortcode in the URL. ie: http://www.mydomain.com/?[aff_id] http://[aff_id].mydomain.com http://www.mydomain.com/[aff_id] Process would work this way: 1: Affiliate link is clicked and the affiliate cookie is dropped. 2: When Paykickstart redirects to your landing page, it’ll replace [aff_id] with the affiliate id in the cookie (or blank if no cookie is set) 3: You can then grab this affiliate ID from the URL via a server-side or frontend script on your landing page to use as needed. 3B(optional): If using the PayKickstart API calls, attach the value of the parameter in the URL to the affiliate_id request parameter for the related call (e.g. New Purchase, Up/Downgrade etc.)
