**Please Note:** Third parties do not notify NATS about new sales and sign-ups immediately -- there may be up to a 24-hour delay before NATS records third-party transactions.
{% endhint %}

NATS offers My Dirty Hobby integration through the Third Party Admin. However, adding EffexMedia is a 4 step process, which uses the following three admins:

* [Third-Party Admin](/nats-admin/third-party.md)
* [Sites Admin](/nats-admin/sites.md)
* [Programs Admin](/nats-admin/programs.md)

## Third-Party Admin

To add My Dirty Hobby to your NATS install, you must first configure it through the Third Party Admin. On the main Third Party Admin page, click "Add a Partner."

Select "My Dirty Hobby" from the "Add New Third Party Partner" drop-down menu then click the Add button.&#x20;

Next, enter your Tracking Code and Default NATS Code (optional).

Next, navigate to the "Fees" tab to set your My Dirty Hobby [transaction charges and deduction fees](/nats-admin/third-party/third-party-overview.md#transaction-charges), as well as when/where you want those fees deducted (after affiliate payout, from affiliate payout, and before affiliate payout).&#x20;

## Sites

The next step to configuring My Dirty Hobby is to add it to the Sites Admin. To do so, go to the [Sites Admin](/nats-admin/sites.md) and click the "Add a Site" tab at the top of the page if you have not already created a Third-Party site in NATS, or simply select the appropriate site.

On the next page, set your site type to "3rd Party", and give it a site name, a short name, and set your site launch date. Click the "Add Site" button.

## Programs Admin

The next step in configuring My Dirty Hobby will involve navigation to the [Programs Admin](/nats-admin/programs.md) and creating a new disabled program.&#x20;

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Please Note:** You can also create a new enabled program, but we recommend you create a disabled program, as new affiliates will not be automatically enrolled in this program. When you're ready for your affiliates to send traffic through this program, you can enable it to automatically enroll all affiliates in the program.

Learn more about enabling affiliates to programs on our [How to Enable Affiliates to Programs](/nats-admin/programs/common-questions/how-to-enable-affiliates-to-programs.md) article.
{% endhint %}

Fill in the necessary information and choose the "Standard Program" option under the Program Type drop-down menu, then click Add Program.

On the next page, select your My Dirty Hobby site from the drop-down list of Site Tours, or choose your My Dirty Hobby tour from the list of tours, then click Add. Once you have set up your tour, click the pencil icon under Program Default Payouts to edit your payout options for this program. Enter your desired payout amounts or percentages, then click the Save button to save your program.

## Type-in Traffic

After you have finished configuring your site and program, you will be able to get an affiliate link code for your type-in/in-house affiliate account. Once you have gotten the NATS code from that link code, go back to the Third Party Admin, edit My Dirty Hobby, and paste the affiliate's NATS code into the default NATS code field. This affiliate will then receive credit for all type-in traffic sent to My Dirty Hobby. Please see our [NATS Code ](/using-nats/nats-admin-features/linkcodes/nats-code.md#getting-nats-code)article for help obtaining your NATSCode.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Please Note:** If you don't complete these steps, NATS will not be able to track My Dirty Hobby type-in traffic.
