CAKE pixel credit vs postback credit is not BuyGoods cash-hop skew
Score tracking skew on a CAKE advertiser settlement export. Line browser-fire conversion $ next to server-post conversion $. Absolute distance ÷ postback $ becomes CK pixel-postback gap %. BuyGoods cash-hop pages never sit on this settlement cut.
Pair: Pixel-vs-postback gap under Traffic. Twin on BuyGoods: BG pixel-postback. Twin on misses: CK postback-miss.
Advertiser settlement stamps
Pixel revenue $ — Dollars CAKE credited from on-page pixel fires inside the settlement window.
Postback revenue $ — Dollars CAKE credited from server-to-server posts in that same window.
CK pixel-postback gap % = |pixel − postback| ÷ postback × 100. When CK pixel-postback gap % runs hot, fix the CAKE offer pixel tag or the postback URL on that advertiser — blank chips stay blank.
Refuse these mixes
Refuse inventing CK pixel-postback gap %. Refuse stuffing miss-rate counts into dollar fields. Refuse treating click-id holes as this skew. Refuse BuyGoods cash-hop CSVs in CAKE boxes. Refuse averaging every offer when one CAKE advertiser owns the gap.
