The cookie lasts your program’s cookie duration (30 days by default).

Add it to your framework

Paste the tag inside <head> on every page, or in your shared layout template.
index.html

Check that it works

1

Open a partner link

Visit your site through any partner’s link, for example https://acme.com/?ref=sam.
2

Read the tracking data

Open the browser console and run:
null means this visit has no referral. tolt.getTracking() returns the same data without waiting.
3

Find the cookie

In DevTools → Application → Cookies you should see tolt_referral and tolt_data. The click also shows up in your dashboard.

Edge cases

tolt.js writes its cookies on your root domain (.acme.com) automatically, so a click on acme.com is still there when the visitor signs up on app.acme.com. Install the script on both. To force a specific domain, add data-cookie-domain=".acme.com" to the tag. Cookies can’t be shared across different root domains.
tolt.js reads the URL once, when it loads. If your router rewrites the URL first, the referral is lost. Load the script in the initial HTML (or as early as possible) so it runs before any client-side redirect.
tolt.js looks for the first of these in the query string (or hash): tolt, ref, aff, via, lmref, fpr, tap_s, afmc, f2f-ref, join, ali. Your program’s links use the parameter you chose in program settings.
