Audience Postbacks

Katalys has built an automated system that can help you create audiences to help you or your partners optimize media buying performance.

This page is about advertiser-specific features for setting up postbacks. If you are a publisher and want to learn about Katalys' industry-leading partner options, read Postbacks & Audiences.

Use Cases

Postbacks enable you to receive more data from Katalys than is available from other platforms. You can receive postbacks from Katalys on all of the data you report, or on just certain data.

Supported Integrations

When you integrated your CRM or website into Katalys' tracking technology, you had many options for deploying the Katalys tech stack. If you wish to enable your partners to get the most out of their media buying campaigns, you must have integrated with Katalys directly. Indirect integrations will still work, but with limited effect as Katalys is not processing all of your attribution data.

For a list of direct integrations, read Katalys Integrations -->

Supported Traffic Flows

Katalys supports multiple common configurations - see supported setups for Google Ads below:

  1. Advertiser-owned campaign → Track Katalys Cost

    • Requires direct-linking setup.

    • Advertisers can pass cost data into Katalys for performance measurement and ROI analysis.

  2. Advertiser-owned campaign → Track Overall Value

    • Enables advertisers to track the total value generated through Google Ads in connection with their Katalys program.
