Channel Attribution: One Honest Scoreboard for Every Channel

Email ROI lives in your ESP, SMS in your texting tool, social in a scheduler, ads in two ad managers that disagree, organic in GA4, revenue in Stripe. Six tools, six definitions of "conversion", none comparable. Datalenk measures every channel with one system, one attribution model, and one currency: revenue.

What it does

• Every channel, same rules: organic, email, SMS, social, paid and AI assistants, all measured by one referee applying one attribution model (your choice of first-touch, last-touch or position-based), consistently.
• One currency, revenue: clicks, opens, likes and impressions become a means to an end, and the end is money, so channels are finally comparable.
• No self-attribution bias: ad platforms each claim the same conversion; Datalenk gives you the neutral count, so you stop scaling campaigns that quietly lose money.
• Cross-channel journeys: a visitor who starts on social, continues via email and converts after an ad does not fracture into three unrelated sessions.

How it works

1. Add the script and use tracked links across your channels (the universal join that survives copy-paste).
2. Connect Stripe so every channel ends in revenue, not a proxy metric.
3. Open the Channels report: organic, email, SMS, social, paid and AI, side by side, ranked by money.

Why this matters

Siloed measurement does not just hide the truth, it actively misleads: the loudest channel wins the budget, not the most profitable one, and teams routinely cut their best channel because it reported modestly in its own silo. Putting every channel in one currency makes the budget decision a sort, not a debate. And it usually reveals that the cheap channels (organic, email) were underfunded all along.

Honest scope

The measurement layer is live: tracked links, channel classification, revenue tie-in. Native connections to specific marketing tools (Klaviyo, Meta Ads, Google Ads and more) are rolling out and on the roadmap; until a given one ships, you still measure that channel today via tracked links and the script, and add the deeper native connection when it lands.

FAQ

What is multi-channel attribution? Measuring every marketing channel with one system, one model and one currency (revenue), so channels are directly comparable instead of each reporting in its own silo and units.

Do I need a perfect attribution model? No. One consistent model applied to every channel and tied to revenue beats six inconsistent ones. Consistency across channels matters more than precision within one.

Does Datalenk send my emails or run my ads? No. It measures what they earn. Keep your sending and ad tools; Datalenk gives you the neutral, revenue-based scoreboard.
