Deriv Partner Dashboard & Analytics Guide: How to Track Clicks, Conversions, and Commission Reports
In digital affiliate marketing, there is a fundamental rule: what you cannot measure, you cannot scale. If you blindly distribute tracking links across social media channels without monitoring performance data, you are operating in the dark. You will not know which traffic source produces depositing traders, which marketing campaign wastes your time, or why clicks fail to convert into funded accounts.
The Deriv Partner Console (powered by enterprise tracking engines like MyAffiliate and native DynamicWorks infrastructure) is one of the most comprehensive analytical terminals in the brokerage sector. It provides real-time click auditing, demographic geo-tracking, multi-tier partner reports, and granular lot volume logs.
However, for newcomers, the partner portal can appear intimidating. With dozens of analytical columns, unfamiliar financial terms, and multi-tier filters, it is easy to feel overwhelmed.
In this guide, we break down every section of the Deriv Partner Console in clean, simple, human-friendly terms. You will learn how to read performance graphs, track conversion rates, audit sub-affiliate production, and configure custom sub-IDs so you can scale your marketing with confidence.

1. Console Overview: The Main Performance Command Center
When you log in to your partner workspace at partners.deriv.com, you arrive at the home screen. This screen functions as your executive dashboard, displaying high-level performance snapshots over the current calendar month:
- Total Commission Earned: Your gross accrued partner earnings for the current billing cycle, broken down across Revenue Share, Turnover lot rebates, and Master Partner overrides.
- Signups (Registrations): The total count of individuals who clicked your links and successfully created a Deriv account.
- Real Accounts: How many of those registered users upgraded from demo accounts to live real-money accounts.
- First-Time Depositors (FTDs): The crucial conversion metric indicating how many users completed their first capital funding.
- Active Traders: Total individual accounts that executed at least one real-money market transaction during the active period.
2. Understanding Clicks, Hits, and Conversion Ratios
Understanding the difference between raw traffic and real commercial engagement is essential for managing your acquisition channels.
| Dashboard Metric | Technical Definition | Healthy Benchmark |
|---|---|---|
| Direct Hits (Raw Clicks) | Total clicks received by your tracker, including multiple clicks from the same user. | Baseline traffic volume metric. |
| Unique Hits | Filtered user sessions counting individual distinct visitors based on browser cookies and IP tracking. | 65% to 80% of Direct Hits. |
| Signup Conversion Rate | Percentage of unique visitors who complete free account registration (Signups ÷ Unique Hits). | 8% to 15% on warm traffic. |
| Deposit Conversion Rate | Percentage of registered signups who go on to fund real money (FTDs ÷ Total Signups). | 10% to 25% with educational funnels. |
If your dashboard shows 1,000 clicks but only 2 signups (a 0.2% conversion rate), you have an alignment problem: your promotional messaging does not match what visitors find when they arrive on the landing page. In contrast, educational channels that explain how to use the platform routinely enjoy 10%+ conversion rates.
3. Mastering the Reports Tab: 4 Essential Performance Views
The real analytical power lies inside the Reports tab in the navigation menu. Here are the four reports you should audit regularly:
1. Traffic Summary Report
Shows day-by-day traffic velocity. You can filter by date ranges to see how a specific YouTube video release or Telegram announcement impacted traffic surges.
2. Registrations Report
Surfaces timestamped logs of every client account that registered under your ID. This report lists anonymous client identifier numbers (e.g., CR numbers or MT5 IDs), country of origin, and registration date. You use this report to verify members who request entry into your free private VIP community.
3. Commission Summary Report
Delivers a complete financial accounting of your earnings. You can view daily turnover rebates generated across MT5 Synthetic Indices alongside monthly Revenue Share balances.
4. Geo-Distribution Report
Displays your audience by country. This helps you understand where your traffic originates so you can tailor your content (e.g., highlighting local payment methods or regional language guides).
4. How to Configure Sub-IDs (s1, s2, s3) for Channel Attribution
If you promote your partner link in multiple places—such as YouTube video descriptions, Telegram pinned messages, and website banner buttons—you must track which specific channel brings results.
Deriv supports dynamic tracking tags called Sub-IDs. You can append parameters directly to your tracking links:
s1: Primary traffic source (e.g.,telegram,youtube,blog)s2: Specific asset or campaign (e.g.,crash_boom_video,pinned_post,header_btn)s3: Geographic focus or audience type (e.g.,scalpers,beginners)
Example of an Optimized Custom Tracker:
https://track.deriv.com/_LXXXXXXXX?s1=youtube&s2=mt5_mobile_setup&s3=beginners
When a viewer clicks this link in your YouTube tutorial, the partner console records s1=youtube and s2=mt5_mobile_setup next to their registration. When you check your reports, you will know exactly which video delivered that depositing client.
5. Monitoring Sub-Affiliate Networks and Override Logs
If you deploy the Master Partner model to recruit secondary content creators and signal providers, auditing their performance is straightforward:
- Navigate to Reports → Sub-Affiliate Summary.
- The table lists every secondary affiliate bound to your master organization.
- Key data columns include:
- Sub-Partner ID: Unique system identifier for that creator.
- Active Clients: How many traders are currently trading in their network.
- Downstream Commission: What the sub-partner earned for their own account.
- Master Override Payout: Your 10% to 20% passive bonus calculated from their production.

6. Advanced Setup: Postbacks and Conversion Webhooks
For agencies managing paid traffic, automated funnels, or media buying campaigns, manual report checking is too slow. Deriv provides server-to-server Postback URLs (Webhooks).
Inside your account profile settings, you can configure an automated HTTP GET/POST callback URL. Every time a user completes registration or funds an account, Deriv’s server pings your third-party software (such as Voluum, RedTrack, or a custom PHP database script) with transaction parameters. This allows you to track conversions, calculate return-on-ad-spend (ROAS), and optimize campaigns in real time.
7. Debugging Discrepancies: Why Clicks Don't Match Registrations
If your data looks unexpected, review these common tracking factors:
- Cookie Windows and Multiple Devices: A user may click your link on a smartphone during the day, but complete their account creation on a laptop that evening. Deriv uses multi-touch tracking, but cross-device registration without logging in can occasionally affect attribution.
- Ad Blockers and Privacy Browsers: Certain aggressive browser extensions strip URL query strings and block analytics scripts, preventing initial click counts from recording even if the user registers successfully.
- Existing Client Profiles: If a user already holds a Deriv trading account registered months earlier, clicking your affiliate link will not count as a new registration. They must request an Introducing Broker account reassignment through Deriv's official support desk.
8. Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) of a Scalable Agency
To build a business generating $5,000 to $10,000+ monthly in recurring commissions, benchmark your performance against these four metrics:
Traffic Velocity
50+ Clicks / Day
Maintained consistently across SEO, YouTube, and Telegram communities.
Signup Velocity
5 to 15 Signups / Day
Indicates clean messaging, trust, and frictionless onboarding guides.
Active Trader Retention
40%+ Monthly
Achieved by teaching sound risk management rather than promoting reckless gambling.
9. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I export my dashboard reports to Excel or CSV?
Yes. Every reporting screen inside the Deriv Partner Console features an Export button, allowing you to download clean CSV or spreadsheet data for bookkeeping and offline analysis.
Does the dashboard show my clients' private personal names or balances?
No. To comply with international privacy and financial data laws (including GDPR), client names, home addresses, and private balances are kept strictly confidential. Affiliates only see anonymous account IDs (e.g., CR numbers), registration dates, and aggregate commission generation.
What should I do if a subscriber claims they signed up under my link, but they don't appear in my reports?
Ask the subscriber for their registration timestamp and their account CR number. Check your Reports → Registrations tab. If they registered recently, allow up to 30 minutes for the database to sync. If they are still missing, they may have used an alternative browser without clicking your link. They can contact Deriv live support to request linkage under your IB code.
