I am having trouble winning codes!

We understand the frustration of not winning codes on a tough sign-up. However, if you are not winning in general, we recommend you test various methods and employ some of the tips below.

We want to be clear that, based on our expansive data, the numbers are not impacting your win/lose rates. We have clients who win on ours and lose on their other service providers, and we have clients who perform the opposite. We have clients who majorly outperform others on hard sign-ups and then lose on another hard one. No one has the algorithm figured out completely, but we are as sure as we can be that our numbers are not why you are losing.

Historically, there have been many changes to TM signups. For example, domain email accounts used to win, then + gmail accounts, etc. and then they did not win. I like to think of it as a dial that gets turned up to filter out entries that have specific attributes based on the volume of signups. For instance, you may win with a specific account if the VF is easy but lose if it was a huge tour. Thus, is it best to vary your signup method.

Test the following:

TM accounts have been the main factor that influences winning. Try using brand new and old accounts to see which may hit, as sometimes one hits over the other
Sometimes using the same account for 2 signups at the same time helps win rates
Be sure to not overuse the same IP addresses
Do NOT use domain email addresses

We are all spraying and praying, but if you use variety, you will cover all of your bases and win.

Best of luck!
