Synchronize marketing campaigns

1) Why sync campaigns in the ecosystem

The network campaign affects operators, studios/RGS, affiliate networks/media, PSP/APM, KYC/AML, streamers and analytics. Without synchronization, there are breaks in offers, conflicting windows, loss of attribution and Cost-to-Serve growth.
The goal of synchronization is a single rhythm of events and compatible artifacts (offers, postbacks, limits, flags) so that traffic, payments, content and RG work as one value chain.

2) Synchronization frame

1. Ontology of campaigns: types (acquisition/retention/reactivation/VIP), entities ('campaignId', 'offerId', 'segmentId', 'jurisdiction', 'budgetId', 'flagId').
2. Single calendar: planned releases/tournaments/streams/offers, change windows by region and risk dates.
3. Каноника событий: `offer_view`, `offer_accept`, `mission_progress`, `reward_granted`, `postback_received`, `rg_guardrail_hit`.
4. Protocols and SLOs: API/EDA versions, webhook signatures, p95 delivery and rendering, attribution guarantees.
5. Guardrails: RG, jurisdictions, APM/KYC limits, bug budgets, traffic quotas.

3) Calendar and change windows (Change Calendar)

Green windows: large runs with canary/progressive allowed.
Yellow: local/domain changes with increased observability requirements.
Reds: ban on releases/experiments (tournament finals, peak holidays).
Regionalization: time shift to local prime times and payment weekends.

4) Media ↔ operator ↔ payments/KYC ↔ content

Media/affiliates: receive 'offerId/flagId' and time windows; in postbacks - a single diagram, signature, deduplication window.
Operators: include flags/rules and segmentation; monitor guardrails RG and APM quotas.
PSP/APM: agree on limits, commission rates, fallback routes; "stop button" during p95 degradation.
KYC/AML: withstand SLA stages; synchronously update claim templates by jurisdiction.
Studios/RGS: captures content versions, RTP parameters, missions/tournaments, region restrictions.

5) Attribution and postbacks

Rule: "last optional touch" with windows by channel/jurisdiction.
Postbeck canon: signed webhook (JWS/HMAC), 'eventId', 'timestamp', 'kid', idempotency, cursive history replication.
Dedup: prohibition of repetitions (window ± 5 minutes), storage of hashes of bodies.
Cross-device stitching: tokenization of identifiers, negotiated 'traceId'.

6) Reconciliation with payments and KYC

APM quotas and CR: before starting - APM benches × region × device; in case of degradation - auto cut-over.
KYC funnel: fast-track for low-risk, manual verification of controversial; pass-rate metrics and average stage time.
Single offer contract: texts, limits, jurisdictional amendments; control of localization and legal purity.

7) Real-time orchestration and feature flags

Campaign flags: activation/deactivation of offers, missions, mission parameters, bonus rates, traffic limits.
Rule-engine: geo/ASN/jurisdiction/risk → route/offer/limit/exception.
Auto-dosing: by current SLI (payments/CCM/streaming); at alarm - channel cooling.
Progressive release: 1% → 5% → 25% → 50% → 100% with guardrails and auto-rollback.

8) Showcases and joint dashboards

Campaign panel (real-time): FTD/CR, mission progress, bus lag, p95 API, RG incidents, APM/KYC status.
Scorecards of partners: traffic quality, uptime of integrations, accuracy of postbacks, speed of providing a trace package.
Drills before tracing: click → slice on geo/channel/device → 'traceId' before events/payments.

9) Security, privacy, RG

Zero Trust: mTLS for S2S, short-lived tokens, egress-allow-list.
PII-minimization: tokens instead of personal data, masking in shop windows, detokenization - only in safe zones.
RG guardrails: exclusion of vulnerable segments, intensity limits, mandatory warnings; automatic "red" stop conditions.

10) Campaign economics

Value Map: channel/offer contribution to CR deposits, ARPU/LTV, retention.
Cost-to-Serve: per rps/txn/event/stream, cost of fraud protection, returns, manual KYC.
Credits/penalties: adjusting SLO budgets (postback delivery, p95, attribution accuracy).
CPH (Cost-per-Hop): for cross-chain routes - the upper limit of the step cost.

11) Operating model

11. 1 Roles and RACI

PM campaign (R/A): goals, segments, offers, release plan.
Affiliate Lead (R): Media, Postback, Brand Security.
Payments/KYC Leads (C): quotas, SLA, fallback.
SRE Lead (C/A by stop buttons): SLI/SLO, alerts, cut-over.
Security/RG Officers (A on guardrails): privacy and responsibility.
Data Steward (C): event/metric diagrams, conformance.

11. 2 War-room

Incident channel (P1/P2), action checklist, go/no-go criteria, SLA per trace packet (≤ 60-90 s), RCA template "no blame."

12) SLI/SLO campaigns (targets)

Postback delivery: ≥ 99.9%, p95 ≤ 1-2 s.
Render of the offer showcase: p95 ≤ 1.5-2.0 s.
Lag event bus: p95 ≤ 200-500 ms.
APM CR deviation: ≤ 5-10% of the baseline median, otherwise auto cut-over.
KYC pass-rate/time: targeted for jurisdictions; exceeding → cooling of traffic.
Audit coverage: ≥ 95% of critical paths with 'traceId'.

13) Anti-patterns

Two truths on metrics: different FTD/CR formulas - disputes and loss of trust.
Postback Zoo: different schemes/signatures/windows - take and losses.
Experiments without guardrails: the rise of RG incidents and compliance.
Jitter/limit-free retreats: traffic storm and double rewards.
SPOF-gateway of offers/redirects: inaccessibility at peak.
PII in showcases: leaks and regulatory risks.
There is no single calendar: overlays with releases/payment windows.

14) Synchronized Campaign Launch Checklist

1. Ontology/data contracts: 'campaignId/offerId/segmentId', event schemas and postbacks.
2. Calendar: change windows by region, "red dates," progressive release plan.
3. Flags/rules: routing, quotas, limitter, RG-gardrails, stop buttons.
4. Payments/ACC: APM, SLA and fallback quotas, test payments and KYC runs.
5. Dashboards: real-time campaign panel, scorecards of partners, alerts.
6. Attribution: signatures, dedup, history cursors included; conformance tests.
7. Security/privacy: mTLS/JWS, tokenization, SoD; DPIA/DPA.
8. Pilot/canary: 1-5% traffic; auto-rollback; change log.
9. RCA procedures: templates, owners, SLAs for audit packages.

15) Maturity Roadmap

v1 (Foundation): general calendar, ontology of offers/events, basic attribution and postbacks, real-time panel.
v2 (Integration): progressive releases, auto-dosing by SLI, agreed APM/KYC quotas, scorecards of partners.
v3 (Automation): ML-hints of segments/channels, predictive cut-over payments/CCL, auto-rollback by error budget.
v4 (Networked Orchestration): federated synchronization between circuits, common rule-engine, collective campaigns with distributed budget.

16) Success metrics

Business: uplift CR/FTD/ARPU/LTV, share of "mission complete," CAC and payback

Technical: p95 render of the offer showcase, delivery of postbacks, lag tires, MTTR at cut-over.
Compliance/RG: PD incidents = 0, share of routes to permitted jurisdictions, RG triggers/1k active.
Partnership: time to provide a trace package, attribution accuracy, SLO execution.
Economy: Cost-to-Serve campaigns, credits/penalties, ROI from cross-chain synchronization.

Brief Summary

Synchronization of marketing campaigns is the coordination of all domains (media, offers, payments, KYC, content, RG) around a single ontology, calendar and protocols. The canon of postbacks, real-time orchestration of features and quotas, guardrails and general showcases shorten the path from signal to action, reduce costs and increase predictability of the result - throughout the network of participants at the same time.
