CourtReserve → AppsFlyer · Conversion tracking

Connecting CourtReserve to AppsFlyer

CourtReserve books racquet and club facilities where the real product is the membership, and court reservations are members consuming what they already bought. AppsFlyer exists because mobile app attribution is a different problem from web attribution, and on iOS a large share of it is now aggregated and delayed by design rather than by accident. The join between them succeeds or fails on one thing: whether the AppsFlyer device identifier, appsflyer_id reaches the CourtReserve membership before the conversion happens, because AppsFlyer can only match a conversion it can tie back to a click it recognizes.

The problem

Why this join usually fails

CourtReserve → AppsFlyer-specific issues
Leak #01

The AppsFlyer device identifier, appsflyer_id never reaches CourtReserve

The single most common cause. Registration and booking pages are CourtReserve-hosted, and members book from an app for years after joining.

Leak #02

Court bookings fired as conversions

It is the most frequent event in the system, so it is the one people wire up. It produces enormous conversion counts entirely composed of people who already paid.

Leak #03

Web conversions sent to a mobile attribution platform

This is the common error and it produces confident nonsense. A purchase made on your website has no device identifier and no install behind it. AppsFlyer will either discard it or attribute it to nothing, and the revenue disappears somewhere between the two systems without anyone noticing it went.

Leak #04

Nothing reconciles afterwards

An upload that succeeds is not an upload that matched. AppsFlyer shows the event on the raw data export with its attributed media source. Check the raw export, not the aggregate dashboard, and confirm the event carries a device identifier rather than landing as organic.

Architecture

How CourtReserve and AppsFlyer actually connect

Two systems that know nothing about each other. Everything below exists to give them one shared reference.

  1. Step 1

    CourtReserve holds the truth

    A member booking three courts a week generates a hundred and fifty bookings a year and one sale. Only one of those is a conversion.

  2. Step 2

    AppsFlyer needs a click to match

    AppsFlyer needs the device identifier and an event name it recognizes, plus the revenue value for in-app purchases. A server event about a user with no linked device cannot be attributed to an install.

  3. Step 3

    The identifier is the bridge

    The AppsFlyer device identifier, appsflyer_id, captured at the visit and carried into the CourtReserve membership. Without it there is nothing to join on and no tool fixes that.

  4. Step 4

    The event source decides reliability

    Send memberships at their contract value and non-member court fees as their own smaller event. Member bookings carry no value.

  5. Step 5

    Deduplication at the destination

    AppsFlyer deduplicates in-app events by its own event identifier. Sending the same purchase from both the SDK and your server produces two events and double-counts revenue in every dashboard downstream, including the ad networks AppsFlyer forwards to.

Diagnose it honestly

Working vs. broken, side by side

Both states look identical from the AppsFlyer dashboard, which is why this runs for months before anyone notices.

Normal — not a fault

  • The AppsFlyer device identifier, appsflyer_id present on the membership

    Visible on the record itself in CourtReserve, not merely captured somewhere on the site.

  • Sent from the CourtReserve membership and payment record

    Server-side, so it does not depend on the customer's browser still being there.

  • Deduplicated correctly

    AppsFlyer deduplicates in-app events by its own event identifier. Sending the same purchase from both the SDK and your server produces two events and double-counts revenue in every dashboard downstream, including the ad networks AppsFlyer forwards to.

  • Reconciles with the source

    AppsFlyer's count and CourtReserve's records agree within a few percent over a closed window.

Actually broken

  • The AppsFlyer device identifier, appsflyer_id missing on most records

    Registration and booking pages are CourtReserve-hosted, and members book from an app for years after joining.

  • Sent from the browser

    Anyone who closes the tab, blocks the script or converts without a page load is invisible. It is the most frequent event in the system, so it is the one people wire up. It produces enormous conversion counts entirely composed of people who already paid.

  • Counted twice, or not at all

    This is the common error and it produces confident nonsense. A purchase made on your website has no device identifier and no install behind it. AppsFlyer will either discard it or attribute it to nothing, and the revenue disappears somewhere between the two systems without anyone noticing it went.

  • Nobody has reconciled it

    The dashboard shows a number and no one has compared it to CourtReserve. A wrong number that nobody checks is indistinguishable from a right one.

Diagnostic sequence

Diagnostic order

Each step rules out a class of cause. Run them in order and the last one usually has a single explanation standing.

  1. 1

    Count memberships carrying the AppsFlyer device identifier, appsflyer_id

    The ceiling on everything else. Do this before debugging anything downstream.

  2. 2

    Follow one real conversion end to end

    From the ad click through CourtReserve and into AppsFlyer.

  3. 3

    Compare conversion count against new memberships

    If conversions outnumber new members by two orders of magnitude, the wrong event is connected.

  4. 4

    Check what share of your revenue happens in the app at all

    If most purchases are on the web, AppsFlyer is not your conversion destination and the work belongs somewhere else entirely.

  5. 5

    Read the match rate, not the success message

    AppsFlyer shows the event on the raw data export with its attributed media source. Check the raw export, not the aggregate dashboard, and confirm the event carries a device identifier rather than landing as organic.

Source-of-truth validation

How it gets proven

Against CourtReserve's own records, not against either platform's dashboard.

Source of truthCourtReserve memberships by start date, kept apart from the court bookings members make.
  • The AppsFlyer device identifier, appsflyer_id confirmed present on a live membership.
  • A real conversion followed from click through CourtReserve to AppsFlyer.
  • In-app revenue events reconciled per transaction against your billing system, with the organic share stated rather than assumed away.
  • New memberships reconciled against imported conversions for a settled quarter.
  • Reconciled over a fully closed window, matched per record rather than on totals.
  • Re-checked 30 days later.

Straight talk

When you don't need this

Worth reading before paying anyone, including us.

  • If AppsFlyer already reports conversions that reconcile against CourtReserve's records within a few percent, this join is working and there is nothing to buy.
  • Measure identifier coverage yourself first — pull your last hundred memberships and count how many carry the AppsFlyer device identifier, appsflyer_id. Ten minutes, free, and it tells you whether any of this is worth doing.
  • A pay-per-play facility with no memberships can treat each booking as the sale it genuinely is.
  • If you have no mobile app, this is not a destination for you. If you have one but sell mostly on the web, send web conversions to your ad platforms directly and use AppsFlyer only for install and in-app events.

Who this is for

Honest about who we’re a fit for.

We don’t take every project. Here’s how to tell if we’re right for you.

Good fit

You’re a great fit if…

  • You run CourtReserve → AppsFlyer (or are migrating to it)
  • You spend $5K+/month on paid ads (Meta, Google, TikTok, Microsoft, LinkedIn)
  • Your reported ROAS doesn’t match what your bank account is saying
  • You want to own your tracking stack — no monthly SaaS fees forever
  • You have 2–4 days to do this once and never think about it again
Not a fit

Skip us if…

  • You spend less than $500/month on paid ads (browser pixel is fine)
  • You want a SaaS dashboard with monthly fees forever (Triple Whale, Hyros)
  • You need attribution modeling — we fix the data foundation, not multi-touch reports
  • You want a 6-month enterprise consulting engagement (we ship in 4 days)
  • You expect us to manage your ad accounts (we don’t — that’s a different service)

If you’re still unsure,book the call anyway— we’ll tell you straight whether we can help.

Got questions?

The honestanswers.

No buzzwords, no upsell. If we don’t know, we say so.

01Why aren't my CourtReserve conversions showing in AppsFlyer?

Almost always because the AppsFlyer device identifier, appsflyer_id never reached the CourtReserve membership. Registration and booking pages are CourtReserve-hosted, and members book from an app for years after joining. Measure coverage before debugging the dispatch.

02What identifier does AppsFlyer need?

AppsFlyer assigns its own device ID and matches installs to clicks through referrer data on Android and Apple's frameworks on iOS. There is no durable cross-device identifier. On iOS without ATT consent, attribution falls back to SKAdNetwork, which returns aggregated conversion values on a delay with no user-level detail at all — so a share of your installs will be attributable only in aggregate, permanently.

03Where should the event come from?

The CourtReserve membership and payment record. Send memberships at their contract value and non-member court fees as their own smaller event. Member bookings carry no value.

04How do I know it worked?

AppsFlyer shows the event on the raw data export with its attributed media source. Check the raw export, not the aggregate dashboard, and confirm the event carries a device identifier rather than landing as organic.
