Do You Support any Tracking Codes?

 In

We support not one, but two, tracking codes:

Source Code, which you can access via a “sc=” query parameter, and

Ref (short for Reference) Code, which you can access via a “rc=” query parameter.

In technical jargon, you simply append one or both of the following to

the URL for the landing or payment page to which you direct folks:

?sc=YOURCODE

?rc=YOURCODE

?rc=YOURCODE&sc=YOURCODE

(where YOURCODE is any string of characters you like). A full URL would look like this, for example:

https://donate.democracyengeine.com/samplepage?rc=20100608ask3

Anyone following that link and making a donation would have

“20100608ask3” put into the Ref Code field in our database.

You can also append both a Ref Code and a Source Code to the same contribution by including both parameters as follows:

https://donate.democracyengeine.com/sample?sc=gen_email&rc=20100608

This example would add “gen_email” as a Source Code and “20100608” as a Ref Code.
