Bl*ckHat Code Breaker question (when does the script know to unlock the content?)

MarketingVet09 · 02-18-2011, 08:12 PM

Hi guys.. I know theres stuff out there like Blam Ads and others, but I'm interested in some incentive offers that dont have a built in content locker..

Lets say I was to use codebreaker with a Maxbounty incentive offer... How does the script know when the CPAction has been completed??.. Trying to figure out how this works...

Anyone that has experience with this please help, thanks

Usually a script like that works with postbacks. So when a user completes an offer the CPA network will send a GET request to a specific url that you provide. BHCB will constantly check if the postback was received, and will unlock if it is.

thanks for your reply, makes sense (going to check out your network also)

*COMPLETELY* wrong.

BHCP does NOT support postbacks. And will never support them. This is simply because there's no single postback standard and integrating 100s of different ones isn't feasible to the product creator.

It works simply by unlocking the content X seconds/minutes (you can define this in the config file) after the user clicks on your CPA link. It has no way of knowing whether the user actually completed the offer so it will unlock the content even if they only clicked on the link and didn't complete the offer.

@AdGateMedia: I'd really suggest you to do your research before making misleading claims like that. Yes - most gateways provided by networks do work on postbacks. No - BHCB does not support postbacks.

Sorry about that. I haven't worked with BHCB in particular, but expected it to have this feature (especially for a paid script). I've developed scripts in the past that do use postback, and it's fairly simple to do.

Sorry for the wrong information.

you can set time for BHCB.. by default its timed as 2 minutes.. after 2 minutes it will unlock by itself.. however you can change the time to longer period..

Deadbolter is a brand new, much better solution that does support postback.
