How to use FERMÀT Forever Links

Learn how to use Forever Links to control where your traffic goes without needing to update live ad campaigns.

Updated over 2 weeks ago

Forever Links are flexible URLs you can assign to any FERMÀT funnel or external destination. They let you update where your ad traffic lands—without ever needing to touch the ad itself. Perfect for fast iteration and better performance.


What’s in this guide:


What Are Forever Links?

Forever Links are re-routable URLs created inside FERMÀT. They let you point ad traffic to a funnel (or any URL), and later change that destination—without needing to pause or relaunch the ad.

Use them to:

  • Update destinations of live ads without triggering re-learning

  • Quickly switch funnel variants for testing

  • Avoid editing campaigns across multiple ad platforms

All links created in FERMÀT are Forever Links by default.


Creating a Forever Link

You can create a Forever Link from:

A. The Funnel Editor

  1. Go to Funnels → [Select a Funnel]

  2. Click the Link icon (bottom right of the funnel preview)

  3. In the modal, select Create New

  4. (Optional) Enter a Custom Slug and Link Title

  5. Click Generate Link

The link will automatically route to the current funnel slug.


B. The Forever Links Dashboard

  1. Go to Funnels → Links

  2. Click Create Forever Link

  3. Choose a Destination Funnel or External URL

  4. Add a Link Title

  5. Click Save

If your domain setup is incomplete, you'll be prompted to finish it before you can generate new links.


Accessing & Managing Forever Links

To view and manage your Forever Links:

  1. Navigate to Funnels → Links

  2. Search or browse your full list of links

  3. Click the three-dot menu next to any link to:

    • Copy

    • Edit destination

    • Rename

    • View analytics

This dashboard is the central hub for media buyers, marketers, and partners to grab and share links quickly.


Rerouting a Forever Link

To change where a link points:

  1. Open Funnels → Links

  2. Click the three-dot menu next to the link

  3. Select Edit

  4. Update the Destination Funnel or External URL

  5. Save changes


Splitting Traffic

You can route traffic to multiple destinations using two methods:

1. Weight-Based Split

  • Choose two destinations (funnels or URLs)

  • Assign a percentage (e.g., 70/30 split)

2. Geographic Split

  • Route users by location: country, state, or city

To set it up:

  1. Go to Funnels → Links

  2. Click Edit on a link

  3. Set Routing Type to either:

    • Weight-Based

    • Geographic

  4. Enter destinations and rules

  5. Save

Updating split traffic resets analytics for that link at midnight UTC.


Best Practices

  • Launch all ads using Forever Links to allow agile rerouting

  • Use descriptive titles and slugs to stay organized

  • Create one Forever Link per creative to track performance accurately

  • Avoid hardcoding funnel URLs directly into ad platforms
