# Outbound Store

`GET /api/out/store/{code}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.getcheapgames.com` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.getcheapgames.com/api/out/store/{code}`
- Auth: none declared

Redirect to a store's own front page, tagged where we can tag it.

The footer lists every store we compare, and those names are now links —
a reader who wants to look at Gamivo directly should not have to retype it.
Routing them through here rather than linking the domain straight keeps the
affiliate id server-side, exactly as the per-offer redirect does, and means
a programme we activate later starts earning without a frontend change.

No interstitial: that page exists to explain a PRICE we are handing off,
and there is no price here. The click IS recorded, as placement 'store'
with no offer, game or price (migration 0063): these are tagged affiliate
exits, and leaving them out meant the networks always counted more than
the dashboard did — the audit found one in two days of logs, against six
counted clicks.

302 rather than 301 for the same reason as the offer redirect: the tagged
destination changes whenever the affiliate id does.

Two ways to tag, and which one applies is a property of the programme.
`tag_url` handles the stores whose own URL takes a parameter — G2A's
`gtag`. A NETWORK programme cannot work that way: the tracked link is the
network's, and the shop's url goes inside it. Kinguin runs on Admitad, so
its front-page link is a configured gotolink rather than anything derived
from `store.domain`.

That value is a setting and NOT an `affiliate_wrap` on the store row, which
is the obvious-looking fix and would break the site — see the comment on
`store_url_kinguin`. A wrap applies to every url for the store, and Kinguin
offer urls come from the feed already tagged.
