Google Play Store Link Generator — Play Store Links With Referrer Tracking
Create a Google Play listing link with the package name and an install referrer for attribution. Use it for install campaigns where you need Play Console and your analytics tool to attribute installs to a source.
Output will appear hereWhat the Google Play Store Link Generator does
A Play Store link targets play.google.com/store/apps/details with the app's package id and can carry a referrer string that Play passes to install attribution.
Methodology and formula
The package name is added to the play.google.com/store/apps/details endpoint, with the referrer string encoded so Play passes it to your app on first launch.
Worked example
- Inputs
- Package com.example.app, referrer utm_source=newsletter
- Result
- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.example.app&referrer=utm_source%3Dnewsletter
Play passes the referrer to the app so the install is attributed correctly.
When to use this tool
Pair the google play store link generator with the short link generator for a tidy shareable address, or the QR code generator when the link has to work on print.
About the Google Play Store Link Generator
A real example
An Android team ships details?id=com.acme.app&referrer=utm_source%3Dqr-poster on venue posters, so installs from the poster are separated from organic Play traffic.
When to use the google play store link generator
Use it for install campaigns where you need Play Console and your analytics tool to attribute installs to a source.
How the link is built
The package name is added to the play.google.com/store/apps/details endpoint, with the referrer string encoded so Play passes it to your app on first launch.
Things to watch out for
The referrer value must be encoded once. Double-encoding breaks attribution reporting.
