# Media Channels

> Group and manage sources based on their marketing channel type for better organization and reporting.

Media channels are the platforms you may be driving your 1st party media from. Pingtree has integrations with a number of media platforms including Meta (Facebook), TikTok, Google, YouTube, Bing, and Instagram to name a few. If you have an internal media team and wish to manage your creatives and analyze creative performance, setting these up in media channels will be a great option.

If you work with a 3rd party agency which manages your media efforts and don't want them to have access to your Pingtree account, that's not a problem! You can still create them as a custom source and provide them a tracking link with the attribution parameters you'd need to analyze performance.

Under the **Media Channels** tab, campaign owners can integrate different traffic sources (media channels) into their Pingtree (PT) account to track lead generation more effectively.

   * Meta (Facebook)
   * Instagram
   * LinkedIn

4. Click the **plus (+) icon** next to the desired media channel to initiate integration.

* Tracking URLs are essential for accurate attribution of leads coming from different media sources.
