Product feeds are files containing product information that is used by marketplaces, shopping engines, and social commerce channels to display product listings.
Trackier introduces its latest automation feature of Product Feed, wherein a specific brand can share a single csv file with the publishers of their choice which would allow them to choose the tracking link for all the products. Publishers can simply download the csv file present on their interface under 'product feeds' and copy the product's tracking link from it.
Using product feed feature of Trackier, publishers no longer have to manually generate tracking links for different products.
Information in these files are also updated every 24 hours to reflect any changes in the product feed made by the brand.
