Invite Link Attribution

Track which invite sources actually retain members — not just which ones drive joins. See 7-day and 30-day retention rate per invite link.

Track which invite sources actually retain members

Retention per sourceBot traffic detectionSource quality score

Every invite link tells a different story. An invite posted on Reddit might bring 500 people who all leave in 3 days. A partner server's link might bring 50 people with 60% Day-30 retention. Without attribution, you optimize for joins. With it, you optimize for retention — the metric that actually grows communities.

How It Works

  1. 01System tracks every invite link: creator, date, uses, and which members joined via it
  2. 02Each member's join source is tagged and linked to their activity timeline
  3. 03Retention rate calculated per invite: 7-day, 30-day, and 90-day
  4. 04Attribution dashboard ranks sources by retention quality, not just volume
  5. 05Compare: organic discovery vs DISBOARD vs partner links vs social media
  6. 06Alerts when a high-volume invite source shows abnormally low retention (possible bot traffic)

What It Tracks

  • Retention rate per invite link (7-day, 30-day, 90-day)
  • Total joins per source with trend over time
  • Source quality score (volume × retention rate)
  • Bot traffic detection (joins with 0% Day-1 activity)
  • Top retention sources ranking
  • Invite abuse detection (sudden spike in uses)
  • Partner server attribution tracking

Use Cases

  • Gaming server discovering DISBOARD brings 3x more joins but half the retention of Reddit posts
  • Crypto project learning their Twitter invite link has 8% Day-30 retention vs 34% from YouTube
  • Brand community finding their website embed converts better than any social channel
  • Education server tracking which partner university Discord brings the most engaged students
