<b>Broker Affiliate Panels: The Attribution Window Trap</b>

<b>Broker Affiliate Panels: The Attribution Window Trap</b>

<b>What it is:</b> The cookie/attribution settings inside broker partner panels (Tradeview, Exness Partner, IC Markets IB area) that decide whether your lead counts.

<b>Best for:</b> Affiliates running paid traffic where the gap between click and first deposit is long.

<b>Pros:</b>
— Some panels (Exness) offer lifetime attribution on revenue-share, so a 90-day-late deposit still pays
— Last-click vs first-click is sometimes configurable per link
— Sub-ID passthrough lets you reconcile against your own tracker

<b>Cons:</b>
— CPA deals often hard-cap attribution at 30 days; forex buyers research for weeks, so you silently lose conversions
— Few panels expose the actual window in the dashboard — you have to ask the manager
— Cross-device dedup is weak; mobile click then desktop deposit can drop

The practical move: before signing, ask for the attribution window in writing and whether it differs between CPA and RevShare. Then run a 200-click test with a known sub-ID and reconcile manually. Mismatches above 8-10% mean the window is eating you.

<b>Who should skip this:</b> If your funnel deposits within 48 hours (aggressive bonus pages), window length barely matters — optimize payout rate instead.

<b>Verdict:</b> Read the window before the rate.
