2. Global Redirect URL
When system receives a request of tracking links, it will check the request information according to predefined rules. If the information do not comply with certain rules, such as GEO Targeting, Device Targeting, or CAP rules, the system will redirect the request to redirect offer.
However, if the request information does not comply with rules of the redirect offer, or the redirect offer is not set, system will redirect the request to an URL set in the configuration item “Network Global Redirect URL”, which in page “Setup > Setting > Tracking Setting”. So, the traffics will be used efficiently.
