Mainly, the referral URL will be updated with the newest URL for each promotion they enter.
Troubleshooting
If you have connected to MailerLite and data is not being added to your group, these are the most common reasons as to why:
Email already in MailerLite
The email address entered into the promotion may already be in your MailerLite group, so it will not be added again.
Email already entered into ViralSweep
The email address entered into the promotion has already been entered into the promotion previously, so therefore it is not passed to MailerLite. This can happen if you set up your MailerLite integration after you have already entered the promotion.
Delay in reporting
MailerLite is having a delay in reporting. Try checking again in a few hours.
