How does the "Link Interceptor Marketing Tool" work?

The Link Interceptor lets you “stop” an outbound link for a moment and show a TravelNet offer first. Your visitor clicks “Book here”, sees a short “Before you go…” offer, and can either sign up (and become your lead) or continue to the original link as normal.

Before You Start

You will need:

Active Marketing Tool

An active Marketing Tool in your My Marketing Tools section

Your Website Access

Access to your website builder (e.g. Wix, WordPress + Elementor, Cornerstone, etc.)

Outbound Link

The outbound link you want to intercept (for example: OTA link, affiliate link, external booking system)

Step-by-Step Guide

01

Open your Marketing Tool detail page
 
  • Log in to https://app.travelnet.id
  • Click the bar chart icon in the left menu to go to My Marketing Tools.
  • Click on the tool instance you want to use (or the Detail button) to open its detail page.

02

Go to the Link Interceptor integration
 
  • On the tool detail page, look at the right side of the screen.
  • You see different integration options (Embed, Button, AutoPopup, Exit Intent, etc.).
  • Click on “Link Interceptor”.

03

Read the instructions in the window
 
  • A new Link Interceptor window opens.
  • At the top, you see a short explanation of how this tool works.
  • Below that, you see the settings you can change.

04

Set the link text (what visitors see)
 
  • In the field called something like “Link Text”, type the text you want to show on your site.
  • This is what the visitor will click.
  • Common examples:
    • “Book here”
    • “See tour here”
    • “Check availability”

05

Choose the link style
 
  • In the field “Link Style”, choose how the link should look:
    • Button style – looks like a button on your page.
    • Normal hyperlink – looks like a simple text link.
  • Pick the style that best fits your website design.

06

Add your redirect URL 
 
  • In the field for “Redirect URL”, paste the link where the visitor should finally go.
  • This is usually:
    • An OTA link (Booking.com, Expedia, Viator, etc.), or
    • An affiliate link, or
    • Another external booking page.
  • This link will still work as normal after the TravelNet step.

07

Copy the Link Interceptor code
 
  • In the same window, you will see a code box.
  • This is the code that creates the special “intercepted” link.
  • Click inside the box and copy the full code, or use the Copy button

08

Open your Website Builder
 
  • In a new browser tab, log in to your website builder (Wix, WordPress, Cornerstone, Elementor, etc.).
  • Open the page where you want the TravelNet tool to appear (for example, your home page or a campaign page).

09

Add a “custom code” or “HTML” element
 
  • In your website builder, look at the list of elements or widgets.
  • Find an element named something like:
    • “HTML”
    • “Custom code”
    • “Raw content”

10

Add the Link Interceptor to your page
 

Depending on your system, you can:

Option A: Use a custom code/HTML block

  • Add an HTML / Custom code / Raw content element where you want the link or button to appear.
  • Paste the Link Interceptor code into this element.

Option B – (Coming soon) Use link-only integration

  • Soon, you will also be able to copy just a special link and use it directly in your text or existing buttons, without adding a code block.
  • For now, use the code block method.

11

Save and publish your page
 
  • Click Save and then Publish/Update in your website builder.
  • Open the page in a new browser tab.

12

Test the Link Interceptor
 
  • Click your new link or button as a visitor would.
  • You should see a “Before you go…” style pop-up or step with your TravelNet offer (for example a Dream Trip or eSIM deal).
  • Then:
    • If you sign up, you become a lead.
    • If you click No / Continue, you are sent to the original redirect URL (OTA, affiliate, etc.).
  • Your affiliate or tracking link still works as before.
