  1. Affise MMP SDK Integration in Applications

  • Familiarize Yourself with Affise MMP SDK Documentation: 
    • Android SDK 
    • iOS SDK 
    • React Native SDK 
    • Flutter SDK 
    • Unity SDK 
  • Integrate the SDK into Mobile Apps 
    • Add the Affise SDK to each application according to the documentation for your platform. 
    • Perform basic SDK setup (initialization with your keys and app IDs). 
    • Test SDK performance in a staging environment before release. 
  • Configure User Event Transmission 
    • Set up automatic transmission of standard events (install, launch, etc.). 
    • Add custom events (registration, purchase, screen views, target actions, etc.). 
    • Compare the full list of events with those tracked by your previous MMP to ensure analytics continuity. 
    • Use the Affise MMP dashboard to check that all events are received and displayed correctly. 
  • Release App Updates 
    • Test the integration in QA builds. 
    • Publish updated app versions with the integrated Affise SDK to app stores.
  1. Migration and Setup of Tracking Links, Postbacks, and Integrations

  • Create Apps in Affise MMP

    • Create a new app entry in the Affise MMP panel for each mobile app.

    • Fill in all required parameters (bundle ID, platform, app store links, etc.).

  • Generate New Tracking Links

    • Generate new tracking links for each advertising partner/traffic source (considering new partner accounts).

    • Check parameter transmission (utm, click id, etc.) for accuracy.

  • Set Up Postbacks

    • Set up postback URLs in Affise MMP to send events to partner systems.

    • Verify that all events and parameters are mapped correctly.

  • Coordinate Integrations with Partners

    • Send new tracking links to partners.

    • Ensure partners have implemented and confirmed the new links on their side.

  • Set Up BI/Reporting

    • Test data exports and integrations with your agency’s BI/reporting systems (e.g., Google Cloud, Amazon S3, Power BI).
  1. End-to-End Testing

  • Perform Test Conversions and Events

     

    • Test all tracking links and event transmissions from the app.

       

    • Compare data between Affise MMP and partner systems for accuracy.

       

  • Validate Analytics

     

    • Compare key metrics (installs, purchases, registrations, etc.) between the old and new MMPs.

       

    • Double-check reporting in Affise MMP.

       

  • Check BI/Integration and Postback Accuracy

     

    • Make sure all data is reaching your external systems and partners correctly.
  1. Partner Registration and Tracking Link Setup

  • Register Partners in Affise MMP

     

    • Inform all advertising partners about the need to register on Affise MMP (if they don’t have an account yet).

       

    • Provide partners with instructions or a link for registration: Affiliate registration on Affise 
    • Support partners during the registration and activation process if needed.

       

  • Set Up Partner Tracking Links

     

    • After registration, partners should create their partner tracking links in the Affise MMP system.

       

    • Make sure the new links are coordinated with the agency and correctly transmit required parameters (click id, subid, etc.).

       

    • Ensure all partners update their campaigns to use the new Affise tracking links.
  1. Final Migration

  • Switch All Campaigns to New Affise MMP Tracking Links

    • Fully migrate all traffic to Affise, and discontinue parallel use of the old MMP.

  • Inform All Stakeholders of the Completion

    • Distribute guides and instructions on working with Affise MMP to partners and internal teams.

  • Closely Monitor in the Initial Days

    • Respond promptly to any issues, and closely track event and data accuracy.
  1. Recommendations

  • Plan migration during periods of lower traffic to minimize business impact.

  • Save data exports from your old MMP for historical reference and comparison.
