Thanks to ClickFlare's API integration with ExplorAds, you'll be able to have conversions and revenue accurately pulled automatically into ClickFlare.

The revenue and conversions are pulled with a frequency of every hour for 3 days, from the moment that the conversion happens. So you're assured to always have the most up-to-date revenue

In this article, we'll go over the step-by-step process of setting up the API Integration with ExplorAds.

**What you'll need for the integration:**

* An active ExplorAds Account.

* Your ExplorAds *Email and Password.*

**Adding the ExplorAds integration to ClickFlare**.

<Info>
  Note: In order for the integration to work, you have to send the **\{cf\_click\_id}** to the "**clid**" parameter (check the offer URL example below). That's why you're not giving the option to choose a subid, like for other Feeds.
</Info>

* Lastly, click on **Save.**

  You’ll see the new integration appear under the Revenue Stream Integrations section.

**Postback template for ExplorAds**

Remember to include a postback in ExplorAds to ensure real-time conversion tracking. Below is a template for the postback:

```

<Info>
  **Note**: ExplorAds earnings are consistently reported in EUR. When setting up your ExplorAds offers in ClickFlare, ensure that you choose EUR at the offer level. The system will then automatically convert the currency to your default reporting currency. You can adjust your default currency in the [general settings](/docs/en/settings/general-settings).
