Mandatory S2S postback for Awin affiliate advertisers.

Auth: Per-tenant API keySetup time: 10 minutesPlan: Growth+ plans

Awin is Europe's largest affiliate marketing network. Since April 2025, Awin has made server-side (S2S) conversion tracking mandatory for all advertisers — merchants without S2S face a 32.6% penalty on tracked conversions. Layer Insights sends a compliant S2S postback to Awin for every order that can be attributed to an Awin affiliate click.

Coming Q4 2026

This integration is on the roadmap. We'll notify you when it's available. In the meantime, you can request early access below.

Frequently asked questions

When will this be available?

Awin integration is planned for Q4 2026.

What is the 32.6% penalty?

Awin applies a deduction to conversion counts for advertisers who don't use S2S tracking, as it considers browser-only tracking unreliable. This directly affects the commission data reported in your account.
