 Un-encoded linkcodes display a period-delimited list of all information that would be in an encoded string within your URL. This is an alternate way to display affiliate linkcodes; the following example will break down what is displayed in an un-encoded linkcode.
 *'''[[Offerit Tracking Domain|Tracking Domain]]''' – The domain of your Offerit install, necessary for proper cookie tracking. This can be a custom domain as long as it points to the domain of your Offerit Install.

 *'''The non-encoded formats are security-smart!'''  If an affiliate alters a linkcode so that he/she sends traffic to an offer/landing page that can not be promoted, ''the affiliate will not get paid out on any transactions that result from that traffic''.
 *'''The non-encoded formats are NOT fool-proof!'''  If an affiliate alters the linkcode so they are using a commission they don't belong to or using a landing page that doesn't belong to the offer, they will not get the desired payment or the visitor will not land on the right landing page in most cases.
