Feature · Link Tracking

Know which DMs actually convert

Sending 10,000 DMs feels great — until you realize you have no idea how many people opened the link. Waveloop tracks every link it sends, so you see real clicks, not just delivery counts. Suddenly you know which automation, which post, and which offer is actually pulling its weight.

One toggle, per automation

Track a link — or send it raw

Link Tracking is a simple ON/OFF switch on every automation. Default is ON. Flip it OFF for the handful of links that must arrive untouched. You decide, link by link.

Tracking ON · default

Count every click

Links are wrapped so each tap is counted, then passed through our safe branded loader before landing on your page. You get real click numbers per automation — the truth behind your DM volume.

  • Real click counts, not just DMs delivered
  • Compare which automation and post convert best
  • Safe branded loader — clean, trustworthy hop

Best for: landing pages, blog posts, YouTube links, lead magnets, your own site — anything where you want to measure conversion.

Tracking OFF

Send the raw link, untouched

Some links break the moment they're wrapped or redirected. With tracking OFF, Waveloop sends your exact URL — no wrapper, no hop, no "leave app?" prompt. It just works, every time.

  • Amazon, Coupang & other affiliate deep links stay intact
  • App deep links open the app directly — no interstitial
  • Coupon & attribution codes pass through exactly

Best for: affiliate deep links, coupon links, and app links that must not be redirected to keep your commission and attribution.

Mix and match freely: track your landing pages, keep your affiliate deep links raw — in the same account, at the same time.

Why it matters

Stop guessing. Start measuring.

DM volume is a vanity metric. Clicks are the number that decides whether a campaign made you money. Link Tracking turns your automations into a scoreboard.

See true conversion

Know exactly how many of your DM recipients actually tapped through — per automation, not a blended guess.

Find your winners

Compare posts and keywords side by side, then double down on the ones that quietly drive the most clicks.

Protect your commissions

Flip tracking OFF for affiliate deep links so redirects never break your attribution or trigger "leave app?" prompts.

Safe by design

Tracked links pass through a clean branded loader — no shady shorteners, nothing that erodes recipient trust.

Zero setup

It's already ON. Build an automation, drop in your link, and the clicks start counting — nothing to install or configure.

Full control

Per-automation, not account-wide. Track what you want to measure and keep the rest raw — no compromises.

How it works

Three steps to real numbers

01

Add your link

Drop the URL into your comment-to-DM, story-reply, or keyword automation like you always do.

02

Choose ON or OFF

Leave tracking ON to count clicks, or flip it OFF for affiliate and app deep links that need the raw URL.

03

Read the results

Watch click counts roll in per automation and finally know what your DMs are really doing.

Questions

Good to know

Does tracking change my link? +

With tracking ON, the recipient taps a wrapped link that counts the click and passes through a safe branded loader before arriving at your exact destination — the page they land on is unchanged. With tracking OFF, nothing is wrapped at all: Waveloop sends the raw URL exactly as you entered it.

Will it break my Amazon or affiliate links? +

That's exactly why the OFF toggle exists. Some affiliate and app deep links — Amazon, Coupang, coupon links, mobile app links — break or throw a "leave app?" prompt when they're wrapped or redirected. Flip tracking OFF on those automations and Waveloop sends the URL untouched, so your commissions and attribution stay intact.

Is tracking on or off by default? +

On by default — so you start measuring conversion from your very first automation. It's a per-automation switch, so you can keep it ON for your landing pages and turn it OFF only for the specific links that need the raw URL.
