Banned cloaked landings vs legitimate redirect hygiene: taxonomy, program vs ad-platform referees, honest bridges, Amazon pointer, and a same-offer audit.
Paid traffic to affiliate offers needs platform reality, kill math, and a 2026 tracking spine (Data Manager offline + Meta CAPI). Map production breaks; open the deep-dives.
Running Meta ads to affiliate offers breaks purchase tracking. A bridge page gives a proxy signal, not a closed loop. SubID revenue matching still decides spend.
Approved affiliate campaigns still die when ad platforms restrict accounts. Build continuity: diversify, document, learn the appeal path early, and hold a cash runway.
