This document discusses pixels and postback tracking for affiliate marketing. It defines pixels as tracking code that fires when a user visits a website or opens an email. Pixels drop cookies to track user behavior and attribute conversions based on the last cookie placed. Postback tracking uses unique transaction IDs passed between networks and advertisers to track clicks and attribute conversions independently of cookies. The document compares the pros and cons of each method and provides examples of how attribution would work in different scenarios.
