Cloaking Google ADS via tracking template.

[googlermarket]

Does anyone have a solution to cloak affiliate links via Google Ads successfully? We want to do brand hijacking campaigns and impersonate the brand's ad without them seeing that traffic came from google.

Here's an example:

We want to run brand hijacking campaign on google ads.

In google ads the ad's final url would be : http://expressvpn.com/ (safe page)
The money page would be : http://pxf.com/123 (impact affiliate link that redirects to http://expressvpn.com/ with an affiliate cookie)

And we would want to use the cloaker to deceive Google that we are sending traffic straight to http://expressvpn.com/ without the affiliate link hop.

How would that work? We are using a click tracker and it only allows us to define a hop url/offer, which is then hardcoded into a tracking template they provide. We have trafficshield too.

Yes, you can — you can use a fake referrer.

Could you elaborate?

You're providing so many details and being blunt about deceiving google, this kinda raises flags about your true intentions here
