In order to enable Tapjoy, you need to have completed the following:

  1. Created a Branch Dashboard.

  2. Have Branch's Performance product enabled for your Branch Account.

  3. Implemented the Branch SDK into your mobile app (iOS | Android)

  4. Running campaigns through Tapjoy.

Enable Tapjoy ​

1. Enable Tapjoy in Branch ​

In the Branch Dashboard under Ads > Partner Management, find/search for Tapjoy. If you're already logged into the Branch Dashboard, you can also click here to go there directly.

Click the Save & Enable button.

2. Configure Postbacks ​

Enabling Tapjoy will automatically enable the following postbacks:

  • INSTALL

  • PURCHASE

You can configure these postbacks or add more under the Postback Config tab.

Send All Events ​

Optionally, you can check the checkbox for a given postback for sending all events. When checked, all events will be sent regardless of attribution. Otherwise, the postback will only fire for events attributed to Tapjoy.

Adding Postbacks ​

Click the Add New Postback button at the bottom of the screen. A modal will appear that will allow you to select an event that you are tracking with the Branch SDKs (including Custom Events).
