# Passing traffic source parameters

To pass parameters from traffic source to affiliate network, we need:

  1. Set up the affiliate network.
  2. Set up an offer.
  3. Set up the traffic source.
  4. Assign traffic source to the campaign.

For this example, we'll take:

  • Exoclick as traffic source.
  • Adcombo as an affiliate network.

# Adding traffic source

Add a traffic source. Choose "Exoclick.com" as template:
