Head-to-head

RedTrack vs ClickMagick

Both tools record the click and send the conversion back to the ad platforms. RedTrack routes offers and puts the spend on the ad that drove the sale. ClickMagick attributes traffic you send to pages you run, and the starting bill is lower.

By Marcus Flynn, tracking and attribution editor. Updated 24 October 2026.

Pick RedTrack if you rotate offers and you judge each ad by its profit. Pick ClickMagick if you buy traffic to a funnel you own and you want the lower starting price.

Quick answer

RedTrack is our top pick for most people. Choose RedTrack if the click has to pass through a tracker and the number you act on is profit for one ad. ClickMagick is the smaller bill when that traffic lands on pages you already run.

  • RedTrack. Best for buyers who route offers and want spend tracked per ad. From $169/mo.
  • ClickMagick. Best for buyers sending traffic to a funnel they own. From $79/mo.

RedTrack: pros and cons

What works

  • Server-side CAPI is on Solo, the first affiliate plan.
  • It distributes clicks across offers and landers by rule, rotates creatives, and splits traffic for testing.
  • Spend is listed per ad, so ROAS and CPA use that figure.
  • One account covers affiliate offers and a store you own.

What to watch

  • Faster ad-spend sync and Ads Manager are paid add-ons on Solo and Team, so a large account pays more than the plan price.
  • Long sales that close on the phone fit a call-attribution tool such as Hyros.
  • You still set up the UTMs, the pixel and CAPI. RedTrack flags anything that is missing.

ClickMagick: pros and cons

What works

  • Accurate first-party tracking that survives iOS and ad blockers. Conversions are captured on your own domain and posted back to Meta, Google and TikTok through Audience Optimization, so the ad platform's optimization gets a cleaner signal.
  • The price is a flat monthly fee. Standard and Pro have higher visitor caps.
  • Outside reviews talk about reply speed more than any feature. Trustpilot sits at 4.1 out of 5 across 679 reviews, about 90% five-star, and the replies often include a screen recording of the fix.
  • Each morning an email points at what to scale, pause or fix. The account also includes sub-IDs, postbacks to more than 100 affiliate networks, a first-party tracking domain, bot filtering and cross-device tracking.

What to watch

  • You point traffic at your own pages and it attributes the result. Offer rotation and lander splits are a route-through tracker's job, which matters most when many offers run through a redirect.
  • Accuracy still depends on passing click IDs cleanly and configuring postbacks correctly.
  • The entry plan is a lot if all you need is to cloak and count links. Quotas count tracked visitors, so a high-traffic, low-converting funnel can land on the next plan.
  • Independent writeups are thinner than the on-site testimonials. There is little on G2 or Capterra, and ClickMagick says it has stopped actively maintaining its Trustpilot profile. The trial on your own traffic is the check that counts.

The real differences

What each one actually is

RedTrack is a cloud tracker for buyers who route traffic. Ad clicks pass through it. It stamps each click, records the conversion, rotates offers and landers by rule, and reports up through channel, campaign, ad set and ad. One account covers affiliate offers and a store you own. CAPI is on Solo, and spend syncs down to the individual ad.

ClickMagick is a cloud tracker for a solo advertiser or a small team buying paid traffic to offers they own. A script on the page and a link through ClickMagick stamp the click, follow the visitor across devices, and record the sale. The record sits on a first-party domain you control, so a conversion an iOS restriction or an ad blocker would drop can still be stored and sent back. It has tracked traffic since 2014. Buyers mention the speed of support more than any feature.

Routing is the fork

RedTrack sits in the click path. It sends each click to an offer or a lander by rule, rotates creatives, and splits traffic for a test. That is the daily work when many offers run through a redirect. ClickMagick records the visit you send to your own page, then ties the sale to the ad, keyword, placement or email. Sub-IDs and network postbacks cover affiliate offers. Rotation is RedTrack's job. ClickMagick is the simpler setup when the page is already live and you want to see which ad made the sale.

The conversion feed

Both record the conversion on a domain you control and send it back to the ad platforms. RedTrack starts that on Solo and places spend next to the conversion. ClickMagick starts it on Starter through Audience Optimization, and a daily email flags what to scale, pause or fix. Both filter bots. The routing and the bill are what separate them.

Who it fits

RedTrack fits a buyer who routes offers or buys on several channels and wants affiliate campaigns and a store in one account. Setup takes longer, and the bill grows with events. ClickMagick fits someone sending paid traffic to one funnel who wants a flat visitor price and a fast reply when a pixel breaks. The offer still has to convert. The tracker shows which ad the money followed.

What each one costs

Builder is off the affiliate plans. Solo, Team and Enterprise are the three that remain.

  • Solo. The monthly price is $169. A year paid up front is $1,420, a 30% discount, and RedTrack's pricing page keeps that rate when the year renews. The same page lists the yearly price as $118 a month. The plan includes 5 million events, one user and five ad accounts on each ad platform. Past that allowance, events are $0.04 per 1,000. An event is a click, a conversion or a postback. Impressions cost extra. Spend on each ad updates every 60 minutes. CAPI for Meta, TikTok, Google and Snapchat is on this plan.
  • Team. Team costs $399 a month and $3,352 for the year. Coverage is 20 million events and five users. Extra events are $0.035 per 1,000, and spend syncs every 30 minutes.
  • Enterprise. Enterprise is $999 a month, or $8,392 billed once for the year. It covers 75 million events and 15 users. Past the cap, events are $0.025 per 1,000. Ads Manager and Scale Rules are included on this plan.

Each affiliate plan opens with a 14-day trial. Faster sync, and Ads Manager on Solo and Team, are add-ons priced by monthly ad spend.

Stores have their own plans. Relay has no monthly charge for one store and uses last-click attribution from UTMs. Brand is $99 a month at the $250,000 revenue tier, with three stores and multi-touch attribution, or $832 for the year. Agency is $599 a month at that tier, with unlimited stores, or $5,032 for the year.

ClickMagick bills a flat fee by tracked visitors. Starter is $79 a month, or $66 a month when the year is paid as $790, for 10,000 tracked visitors. Audience Optimization is included on Starter. Standard is $199 a month, or $166 a month on a prepaid year, for 100,000 visitors, unlimited affiliate campaigns and Click Shield. Pro is $349 a month, or $291 a month on a prepaid year, for 1,000,000 visitors. The trial lasts 14 days. The signup page says you do not pay today. Annual plans include two months free.

ClickMagick is cheaper to start on both monthly and annual billing. Starter's monthly price sits under Solo's list price and under Solo's yearly rate. The ClickMagick cap counts visitors. The RedTrack cap counts events. The lower bill is the price of the smaller cap.

Our pick

RedTrack

Choose RedTrack if the click has to pass through a tracker and the number you act on is profit for one ad. ClickMagick is the smaller bill when that traffic lands on pages you already run.

Frequently asked questions

Should I choose RedTrack or ClickMagick?
Open RedTrack when offers rotate and you act on profit for a single ad. Open ClickMagick when the page is already yours and the starting invoice is the constraint.
Is RedTrack or ClickMagick cheaper?
The smaller published price is ClickMagick, whether the invoice is monthly or yearly. RedTrack's first plan is the larger allowance, and it counts events. A visitor cap and an event cap measure different things. A week of your own traffic is the fair comparison.
Do both send conversions back to the ad platforms?
Both send the sale back from the first paid plan. RedTrack puts ad spend in the same row. ClickMagick sends the sale through Audience Optimization.
Which one can rotate offers?
RedTrack can send a click to an offer or a lander by a rule, and it can split that stream for a test. ClickMagick follows affiliate offers with sub-IDs and a network postback, and it scores the visit you pointed at your page. That routing layer is the practical split.
