Overview

This guide covers the updated agency linking & data authorization process that allows you to link with agencies and give them access to your data so they can better support you. When linking with an agency, you are also setting a commission split, which is the percentage of your TTS commission earnings that you would like to split with the agency for the support they provide to you.

Linking with Agency

Step 1: In the Partnerships page or Notifications page, you will see a notification for a new link request to click on and view the details. Here, you must accept that you understand you will be sharing your data and that you will be sharing revenue with the agency by clicking the checkboxes and pressing Accept. Once accepted, you will see the linking and revenue sharing details and can also choose to unlink from the agency.
Note: We recommend that you set up offline contracts with agencies that specify the percentage of TTS commission that will go towards the agency, and we recommend that the duration of these offline contracts aligns with the duration that is specified on the linking invitation.
Step 2: You can also choose to Decline the linking request in the previous step.

Accepting Extension Requests

Step 1: Once the Agency has submitted an extension request, you will receive a notification in the Partnerships page or Notification page. You must confirm that you understand you will be sharing your data and then click on Accept.
Step 2: If you Decline the extension request, don't respond to it within 7 days, or the original link expires during this time, then you will see that the request has been declined or expired.

Accepting Commission Rate Adjustments

Step 1: Once the Agency has submitted a new fee agreement request, you will receive a notification in the Partnerships page or Notification page. You must confirm that you understand you will be sharing your data and then click on Accept.
