ℹ️
Integrate with Adobe Commerce (Magento) is in beta
Currently, the impact.com plugin integration supports version 2.4.3, 2.4.4, 2.4.5, & 2.4.6 of Adobe Commerce.

impact.com supports a plug-in integration with Adobe Commerce (Magento) e-commerce stores, enabling you to track and send conversions directly to impact.com via our API. Once integrated, you can begin discovering and recruiting partners to drive traffic to your store, create contracts that establish payouts for conversions, access reporting data, and more.

🚧
Supported configurations
This integration does not support multi-store/scope configurations. It will only connect with your default store.
