Hi all,
It occurs to me that cookies aren't shared between browsers, and many traffic sources on mobile use their own in-app browser. Basically every social media app has its own in-app browser (even the gmail app has an in-app browser on android).
Is there any way to overcome the fact that many (if not most) people probably have their payment information autosaved on only their primary browser that they normally use to make purchases?
If they click your link in, let's say, in the Instagram app (within the in-app browser) and it they get to the checkout page, at this point many people will copy that link and paste it into the browser that has their payment info autosaved, so they don't have to manually enter it (or, they just open their preferred browser, and use google to navigate back to the sales page.
In both cases, they probably lose your affiliate tag on their url. I wonder how many sales affiliates lose to this. Is there any possible solution?
