Please help. I really need some guidance because I'm completely new to this stuff and I have no idea how this works :(

Landing page setup:

1. Visitor comes to the landing page.
- We have placed the landing page code from Prosper202 on this page.

2. Visitor fills out form on landing page. Once the user clicks the submit button on the form, they are transferred to our partner's website. If the user is accepted, our partner will send us a postback.
- Currently, I need to provide our partner with our Postback URL, but I'm not sure how it should be setup. In my Prosper202 account, for the Postback URL, I see this
Code: 
http://www.example.com/t202/static/gpb.php?amount=10&subid=

Immediately, I'm wondering how the postback URL will know which network, campaign, and keyword generated the sale? Do I have to add more code to the Postback URL? I noticed the global tracking pixel has &cid=10 at the end of the URL which connects the tracking pixel to the campaign in Prosper202 right? But the Postback URL is the same for each network and campaign I choose to get code for in Prosper202?

3. We are sending traffic to the landing page using links like this:
Code: 
https://www.example.com/landing/?t202id=1510&t202kw={keyword}

Can you please tell me what my Postback URL should look like in order for everything to track successfully? If I'm not using subid's, how can I do this? Ultimately, I want the post back URL to be able to post back which keywords generated leads and connect those stats to our existing campaigns in Prosper202.

Thanks so much guys.. Your help is greatly appreciated.

You should know that prosper assigns a unique numerical subid to each visitor. You can pass that subid to the advertiser using the special parameter enclosed in the double parentheses [[subid]]

When you give your postback URL to the advertiser, you can populate the amount field and ask the advertiser to pass subid (that converted) back to you as a subid parameter. The advertiser has to do that (not you). This will give you most accurate tracking.

Even if the subid is not passed back to you by the advertiser, prosper tries to match it with the help of cookies and/or ip address. This may be somewhat inaccurate since it might miss it once in a while due to various issues.

Makes sense?
 
Thanks for the help, really appreciate it.

So how can my developer get this numerical subid that is assigned to each visitor and pass it to the advertiser? Currently my developer is taking the t202id=1510 and passing it as the subid, but that's not right.

Another person from wickedfire said that the t202id should be passed back as the "requestid"? Is that true? And if so, this leads me to ask again how my developer can get the numerical subid that is assigned to each visitor?

Thanks!!!!
