Getting started

Welcome to PalDock! This section will guide you through the first steps of using the platform. The goal is to help you quickly understand the basics, so you can set up your workspace, create your first offers, and start tracking results without being overwhelmed by details.

PalDock is built to be flexible – whether you are an affiliate, an advertiser, or a network, the setup process is streamlined and uses sensible shortcuts. You don’t need to configure everything at once. Instead, you can get started with a simple setup, test it, and then expand as your needs grow.

In this section, you’ll learn how to:

Navigate the interface and recognize the difference between Preview and Edit mode
Understand the concept of Workspaces and how accounts can be connected to more than one
Use the Dashboard to see key metrics and manage your partners
Set up your first Offer and Commission so that conversions turn into payouts
Configure basic tracking so clicks and leads are recorded correctly
Test your setup to make sure everything works before going live

By the end of this section, you’ll have a functioning workspace with working tracking and your first results visible in the dashboard. From there, you can dive deeper into advanced features at your own pace.
