Head-to-head

RedTrack vs AdsBridge

You are down to two cloud trackers you route paid clicks through, and neither one is a server you have to run. RedTrack is the tracker most media buyers reach for first: native server-side CAPI to Meta, Google, TikTok and Snapchat on every plan, and ad spend synced down to the individual ad. AdsBridge is the cheaper option, from $29 a month, and it bundles something RedTrack does not: a landing page builder in the same subscription. The split is not the feature list. It is whether your conversions need to flow back into the ad platforms, and whether you want your landers built into the tracker.

By Marcus Flynn, tracking and attribution editor. Updated 27 September 2026.

Pick RedTrack if you buy paid traffic to offers you own and want native server-side CAPI to Meta, Google, TikTok and Snapchat on every plan plus ad spend synced down to the individual ad; pick AdsBridge if you want the cheapest way to run a tracker and hosted landing pages in one tool and your conversions close through affiliate-network postbacks rather than the ad platforms.

Quick answer

RedTrack is our top pick for most people. The default first tracker for most direct-response buyers: CAPI on every plan, ad-level spend sync, and an entry price a solo operator can carry. One cloud account covers affiliate offers and an owned store.

  • RedTrack. Best for Multi-channel paid-social buyers. From $69/mo.
  • AdsBridge. Best for Budget affiliates who want tracking and landing pages in one tool. From $29/mo.

RedTrack: pros and cons

What works

  • Server-side CAPI for Meta, TikTok, Google and Snapchat is included from the $69 Builder plan, where several rivals gate it behind four-figure tiers.
  • Ad-spend sync down to the ad level means ROAS and CPA reflect what was actually spent, not a number hours out of date.
  • Sits between a pure click tracker and a revenue-attribution suite, so one tool covers affiliate offers and owned DTC.
  • Published, tiered pricing all the way up to Agency, so you can forecast cost as you scale seats and events.

What to watch

  • The fresh ad-spend sync speeds (5 and 15 minute) and the Ads Manager control layer are paid add-ons on top of the plan, so the real monthly cost at scale runs above the headline price.
  • It is a media-buying tracker, not a full multi-touch attribution suite for long, call-heavy sales cycles; buyers who need that look at Hyros.
  • Setup still asks for clean UTMs, working pixels and CAPI hygiene. It surfaces tracking gaps, it does not paper over them.

AdsBridge: pros and cons

What works

  • Cheap to start: $29/mo for 100,000 visits with a 14-day trial that needs no card, well below what Voluum or RedTrack charge to get going.
  • A built-in landing page builder with visual and HTML editors, templates and CDN hosting, so your tracker and your landers live in one tool instead of two subscriptions.
  • Cloud-hosted across seven AWS data centers in 160-plus countries, so there is no server to provision, patch or scale like Keitaro or Binom.
  • The media-buyer basics are all present: a traffic distribution system with rules, split testing, S2S postbacks, tracking without redirects, and Fraud-Guard bot and proxy filtering.
  • It has run under the same company since 2013, so it is an established tracker rather than a new arrival with no history.

What to watch

  • Independent proof is thin and dated. G2 lists no reviews, Capterra has a handful, and most affiliate-forum praise is from 2014 to 2019, so you are largely trusting the vendor's own pages.
  • Landing pages built in its editor are hosted on AdsBridge and cannot be downloaded, so switching trackers later means rebuilding those pages from scratch.
  • Pricing is by monthly visits with per-1,000-visit overage, so a high-traffic pop or native campaign with a low conversion rate can push the real bill well past its tier.
  • Cancellations get no refund under its own billing policy, so a mid-cycle change of mind costs you the rest of the month.
  • Serious media buyers mostly shortlist Voluum, RedTrack or Keitaro, so there are fewer public setups and recent walkthroughs to copy when you get stuck.

The real differences

What each one actually is

RedTrack is a cloud ad tracker you log into to buy paid traffic. You connect your ad accounts, route your clicks through it, and read back every conversion with the ad spend matched down to the individual ad, so profit and ROAS are computed for you rather than pieced together in a spreadsheet. It sits between a pure click tracker and a full revenue-attribution suite, so one account covers affiliate offers you send traffic to and an owned store alike. Server-side CAPI to Meta, Google, TikTok, Snapchat and more is on every plan, and you start it yourself from the $69 Builder tier.

AdsBridge is also cloud, and older, running under the same company since 2013. It does the same routing job, with a traffic distribution system, rule-based split testing, server-to-server postbacks and tracking without redirects, but it bundles something RedTrack does not: a landing page builder with visual and HTML editors, templates and CDN hosting. Your tracker and your landers live in one subscription. It also ships Fraud-Guard bot and proxy filtering, and it starts at $29 a month.

The real split: what happens to your conversions

This is the fact that decides it for most paid-traffic operators. RedTrack was built to get the conversions a browser pixel drops back into the ad platforms. It captures server-side and posts deduplicated events to the Meta, Google, TikTok and Snapchat Conversion APIs on every plan, with no tier gating. If you run paid social or search to offers you own, that feedback is what trains the bidding engine, and it is the core reason to buy a tracker like this. On top of it, RedTrack syncs your ad spend down to the individual ad, so the ROAS and CPA it reports reflect what was actually spent rather than a figure hours out of date.

AdsBridge does not do that natively. It is a route-through click tracker with server-to-server postbacks that reconcile conversions from affiliate networks, and it can track without redirects, but it does not post server-side conversions into the ad platforms' Conversion APIs the way RedTrack does. For a buyer promoting network offers they do not own, that gap barely registers, because the postback to the network closes the loop. For a buyer running traffic to a funnel or store they own, it is the difference between a tracker that feeds Meta and one that only reports back to you.

Landing pages, and who needs them in the tracker

AdsBridge's built-in lander builder is a real advantage for the operator who wants one tool and one bill. You draft or import a page, host it on its CDN across its data centers, and split-test it against the tracker in the same account, with no separate page builder to pay for. RedTrack does not build landers at all; it routes traffic to pages you host elsewhere and tests them on the click. If you already run your funnels on a dedicated page builder or checkout, that is what you want, and this is a point for neither. If you have no lander tooling and want tracking and pages in one cheap subscription, AdsBridge saves you a second tool.

The catch on the AdsBridge side is ownership: pages built in its editor are hosted on AdsBridge and cannot be downloaded, so moving trackers later means rebuilding those landers from scratch. That is a real switching cost to weigh against the convenience, and it matters most if you build your whole funnel inside the tracker rather than linking out to pages you already own.

Price, and how thin the proof is on each

AdsBridge is cheaper to start and buys more raw traffic per dollar. $29 a month covers 100,000 visits, and its tiers climb to millions of visits for a few hundred dollars, well below what RedTrack charges for the same volume. RedTrack's floor is $69 a month for two million events, where an event is a click or a conversion, and the faster ad-spend sync speeds and the Ads Manager control layer are paid add-ons, so a scaled setup runs above the $69 sticker.

The two are lightly reviewed to very different degrees. RedTrack has the longer, deeper track record: it is the tracker experienced media buyers name first on affiliate forums and in ROAS threads, with years of public setups and walkthroughs to copy when you get stuck. AdsBridge's proof is thin and dated by comparison: G2 lists no reviews, Capterra has a handful, and most affiliate-forum discussion of it is from 2014 to 2019. It has longevity on its side; it does not have a live community of buyers documenting current setups. Trial either against your own numbers rather than trusting the review count.

Who each one is for

RedTrack fits the buyer running paid traffic to offers they own who needs conversions flowing back to Meta, Google, TikTok and Snapchat, wants true ROAS with spend synced per ad, and is happy to pay a higher floor and the add-ons for it. It is the default first tracker for a multi-channel paid-social buyer, and one account covers affiliate offers and an owned store together.

AdsBridge fits the budget affiliate who wants a working tracker and hosted landing pages in one cheap subscription, promotes offers through networks where postbacks close the loop, and does not need to feed conversions back to the ad platforms. At $29 a month with landers included, nothing else in this category gets you both for less.

One caveat covers both. A tracker makes your numbers clearer. It does not fix a weak offer, a broken pixel setup or low Event Match Quality. Pick on conversion feedback, landing pages and cost, then do the work the tracker only measures.

What each one costs

RedTrack is flat, published tiers billed on events, where an event is a click or a conversion. Builder is $69 a month for two million events and one seat, then Solo at $141, Team at $333 and Enterprise at $833, with extra events at four cents per thousand and the same features on every plan. The faster ad-spend sync speeds and the Ads Manager control layer are paid add-ons, so a scaled setup runs above the $69 sticker.

AdsBridge prices by monthly visits, in tiers, with a per-1,000-visit charge once you go over. Starter is $29 a month for 100,000 visits, Professional $89 for 3 million, Advanced $199 for 7 million, Business $379 for 14 million, Agency $499 for 19 million and Enterprise $799 for 31 million. A 14-day trial covers 50,000 visits and needs no card, annual billing saves about 20 percent, and the landing pages are included in the price. Cancellations get no refund under its billing policy.

The two meter different things at different rates. AdsBridge buys far more raw visits per dollar because it is a cheap high-volume router; RedTrack charges more per plan but includes the native server-side conversion feedback and the ad-level spend sync AdsBridge does not. Run your real traffic and conversion numbers through both rather than compare entry tiers.

Frequently asked questions

RedTrack or AdsBridge: which should I pick?
Pick RedTrack if you buy paid traffic to offers you own and want native server-side CAPI to Meta, Google, TikTok and Snapchat on every plan plus ad spend synced down to the individual ad. Pick AdsBridge if you want the cheapest way to run a tracker and hosted landing pages in one tool and your conversions close through affiliate-network postbacks rather than the ad platforms. The answer turns on what your conversions do more than on the feature list.
Is RedTrack or AdsBridge cheaper?
AdsBridge is cheaper on headline price and buys more raw traffic per dollar: $29 a month for 100,000 visits, climbing to millions of visits for a few hundred dollars. RedTrack starts at $69 a month for two million events and adds paid add-ons for faster sync and the Ads Manager layer. AdsBridge wins on cost; RedTrack charges more because it includes the native CAPI feedback and the ad-level spend sync AdsBridge does not.
Does AdsBridge send conversions back to Meta and Google?
Not natively. AdsBridge uses server-to-server postbacks to reconcile conversions from affiliate networks and can track without redirects, but it does not post server-side conversions into the ad platforms' Conversion APIs. RedTrack does, on every plan from $69. If feeding clean conversions back to Meta, Google, TikTok or Snapchat bidding matters, that is the reason to pick RedTrack.
Which one includes a landing page builder?
AdsBridge. It ships a landing page builder with visual and HTML editors, templates and CDN hosting, so your tracker and landers live in one subscription. The catch is that those pages cannot be downloaded, so switching trackers later means rebuilding them. RedTrack does not build landers; it routes traffic to pages you host elsewhere.
Do I need either to run paid traffic?
Below meaningful spend, clean server-side events, Meta CAPI and Google Enhanced Conversions cover most of the value at a fraction of the cost. A tracker like RedTrack or AdsBridge earns its price when tracking gaps get expensive. Neither one fixes a weak offer, a broken pixel setup or low Event Match Quality.
