Referral Reverse Conversion in Google Analytics

So, I have two sites for the client, we will say that www.main.com is their main site, and www.signup.com is the site on which the user subscribes to a particular service.

I recently switched signup.com to universal analytics so that we can implement cross-domain tracking through the autolink plugin.

I used this article to help me set up code for each domain.

Here is what I am on main.com :

<script>
  (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){
  (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),
  m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)
  })(window,document,'script','//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');

  ga('create', 'UA-11865301-1', 'auto', {'allowLinker': true});
  ga('require', 'linker');
  ga('linker:autoLink', ['signup.com'] );

  ga('require', 'displayfeatures');
  ga('send', 'pageview');

</script>

NOTE. I'm not sure what displayfeatures is. I was told that a third-party provider had to configure the code at some point and that I should not delete anything.

signup.com:

<script>
  (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){
  (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),
  m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)
  })(window,document,'script','//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');

  ga('create', 'UA-11865301-1', 'auto'), {'allowLinker': true};
  ga('require', 'linker');
  ga('linker:autoLink', ['main.com'] );
  ga('send', 'pageview');

</script>
