Suppliers
Configure lead sources with cost tracking and API keys.
What is a Supplier?
A supplier represents a lead source — your own advertising, a lead vendor, a form on your website, or any system that generates leads. Each supplier gets a unique API key for authenticating lead submissions.
Cost Tracking
Track costs per supplier to calculate your true blended cost per lead and profit margins.
| Cost Mode | How It Works |
|---|---|
| Fixed | A fixed cost per lead (e.g., $25/lead). Set once and it applies to all leads from this supplier. |
| Variable (Meta Ads) | Cost is calculated from actual Meta ad spend synced automatically. Requires Meta integration. |
API Key
Each supplier gets an API key generated automatically when created. Use this key in the x-api-key header when sending leads to the ingest API.
Keep your API keys secure. If a key is compromised, delete the supplier and create a new one to generate a fresh key.
