Tracking Codes

What is a Tracking Code?
Synthetix generates revenue via fees collected through the use of different synthetic assets (e.g. atomic swaps & perps). One such method are maker/taker fees charged on entry/exit of perp positions. Protocols and dapps that wish to partner and/or integrate with Synthetix, can receive a portion of fees relative to volumes generated.
A trackingCode is used to associate and attribute volume generated through atomic and delayed orders.
Obtaining a Tracking Code
Tracking codes are ad-hoc and differ on a case by case basis. They are used to attribute volume. If you would like to receive a trackingCode, please reach out in #dev-portal channel on Synthetix Discord.
Volume Attribution
To attribute volume to a tracking code, we provide an amended withTracking method for each market modification call. This allows you to specify a trackingCode as the last argument. If a position is successfully opened a  PerpsTracking event is emitted and used for fee revenue attribution.
