Your Airtable-powered app deserves attribution-grade tracking too.
However you're tracking referrals on Softr today — a spreadsheet, a generic pixel, or nothing yet — attribution needs to survive ad blockers, the commission math needs to survive an audit, and the payout needs to go out on a rail you already use. Here's what one script tag adds:
Tracking it yourself
Basic click tracking at best — no coupon-code fallback for ad blockers or podcasts, no fraud check before a commission is owed, and payouts mean a manual spreadsheet.
Qanary
One script tag in Settings → Custom Code → Header. Coupon-code fallback, fraud checks before commission, and payouts through Wise or PayPal — the same system whether you're on Softr or anywhere else.
Paste, stamp, verify. Three steps.
1. Paste the tracking snippet — Settings → Custom Code → Header. It sets the
first-party attribution cookie when a visitor lands with
?via=AFFILIATE_CODE and records the touchpoint.
2. Carry the referral into checkout — on Softr's Stripe checkout blocks, keep ?via= on inbound links so the cookie carries it — or, if you use custom forms, pass the visitor's stamp into checkout metadata via a hidden form field.
3. Verify — open your site with a test ?via=,
run a test-mode checkout, and confirm the conversion lands attributed — or ask
your coding agent to run the MCP diagnose_attribution tool.
<script src="https://app.qanary.cloud/qanary.js" data-qanary="YOUR_PROGRAM_SLUG" async></script>
Paste this exact tag into Settings → Custom Code → Header, publish, and it's
live. Swap YOUR_PROGRAM_SLUG for the program slug from your
Qanary dashboard.
One tag. Three jobs.
Sets the attribution cookie
Reads ?via=AFFILIATE_CODE off the URL the moment a visitor lands
and records the touchpoint — no configuration beyond the program slug.
Stamps your Stripe checkout block
Carries the referral through Softr's built-in Stripe checkout block, with a hidden-field fallback for custom forms.
Verifiable end to end
Ask your coding agent to run diagnose_attribution and it walks
visit → identify → webhook → attribution → ledger, so a stalled conversion is
never a mystery.
Whatever's built on top of your Airtable base.
Softr's built-in Stripe block
The most common shape: Softr's native Stripe checkout block. The cookie carries attribution through automatically.
Gated member directories
Softr's own membership blocks gate content on top of an Airtable base — the snippet in the header keeps attributing independent of who can see what.
Marketplace or directory app
A Softr-built marketplace linking out to a separate checkout. Keep ?via= on the links and the cookie carries the referral across.
Migrating from another tool
Swap the old tracking snippet for Qanary's in the same Custom Code field — existing ?via= links your affiliates already shared keep working.
See it side by side.
| Capability | Tracking it yourself | Qanary |
|---|---|---|
| Setup time on Softr | Custom dev project | ~10 minutes |
| Coupon-code fallback for ad blockers | No | Yes |
| Fraud checked before commission is owed | No | Yes |
| Falls back with no page to instrument | No | Yes, via coupon codes |
It works the day you publish.
- Live the moment you publish. The snippet is a plain script tag pasted into a field Softr already gives you — nothing to submit for review, nothing to wait on.
- Doesn't slow down your site. Loads with
async, so it never blocks page rendering while it sets the attribution cookie. - Coupon codes cover the rest. A podcast mention or a DM with no link at all still attributes through a coupon code — see links & coupon codes.
- An agent can paste it for you. Point Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex at Qanary's llms.txt and it can install the snippet and verify it in one prompt.
Fair questions.
Where exactly does the snippet go in Softr?
Settings → Custom Code → Header, then publish. The snippet needs to load site-wide so it catches a visitor landing on any page with a ?via= link.
Does the snippet slow down my site?
No — it loads with the async attribute, so it fetches in the
background and never blocks page rendering.
Does this work with Softr's native Stripe checkout block?
Yes — keep ?via= on the links leading to it and the first-party cookie carries the referral through. Custom forms can also forward the stamp via a hidden field.
Does this work with a Softr app built on Airtable or Google Sheets?
Yes — the snippet tracks visits and checkouts at the page level, independent of whatever data source powers your Softr blocks.
Can an AI agent install this for me?
Yes — point Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex at Qanary's llms.txt
and it can install the tracking snippet and wire a webhook from a single
prompt. See the AI agent page for the exact setup.
