Quick Setup

Install and activate the plugin, and the affiliate registration, login, and dashboard pages are created for you automatically. Choose your commission rate and payout method, and your affiliate program is ready to accept signups.

Referral & Click Tracking

• Real-time tracking: Clicks, referrals, and sales are recorded the moment they happen and appear in your reports immediately.
• Configurable cookie duration: Decide how long a referral stays credited to an affiliate (30 days by default).
• IP address tracking: Optionally match referrals by IP address as a fallback when the visitor’s cookie is missing.
• Coupon code tracking: Link WooCommerce coupons to affiliates so they earn commission without needing a referral link (addon).
• Let customers name the referrer: Allow buyers to enter the affiliate who referred them at checkout (addon).
• Ad impression tracking: See how many times each banner or creative is viewed.
• Self-referral prevention: Stop affiliates from earning commission on their own purchases.

Flexible Commissions

• Percentage or flat rate: Pay a percentage of each sale or a fixed amount per order.
• Per-affiliate rates: Give individual affiliates their own commission rate, such as a higher rate for your top partners.
• Product-specific commissions: Set different commission rates for individual WooCommerce products (addon).
• Recurring commissions: Reward affiliates on subscription renewals with WooCommerce Subscriptions and supported membership plugins.
• Automatic reversals: Commissions are reversed when a WooCommerce order is refunded or cancelled.
• Manual commissions and adjustments: Award a commission for an untracked sale, add a bonus, or correct a balance. Every adjustment is recorded as its own line item.
• Bonus for recruiting affiliates: Reward affiliates who refer new affiliates to your program (addon).
• Revenue sharing: Automatically share revenue with partners on specific WooCommerce products (addon).

Pay Affiliates Your Way

• PayPal payouts: Generate a payout file to pay all of your affiliates at once using PayPal Payouts.
• Bank transfer, check, or manual payment: Pay with whichever method you prefer, then mark the commissions as paid.
• Date-range payouts: Pay out commissions earned within a specific period, such as the previous month.
• Payout history: Every payment is logged, so you and your affiliates always know what has been paid.

Affiliate Recruitment & Management

• Unlimited affiliates: Manage one affiliate or thousands.
• Automatic or manual approval: Approve every new affiliate instantly, or review and approve each application yourself.
• Customizable registration form: Choose which fields to collect, mark them as required or optional, and add your own custom fields.
• Terms and conditions: Require affiliates to accept your program terms when they sign up.
• Spam protection: Add Google reCAPTCHA to the registration form (addon).
• Automatic affiliate accounts: Turn your WooCommerce customers or Simple Membership members into affiliates automatically.
• Add affiliates yourself: Create and edit affiliate accounts directly from the admin dashboard.

A Dashboard for Your Affiliates

Each affiliate gets a responsive, mobile-friendly dashboard on your site where they can:

• View their clicks, referrals, commissions, and payment history
• Generate referral links to any page or product on your site
• Create links for sharing on social media
• Grab ready-made banners and text links
• Update their payment details and password

Unlimited Creatives

Upload as many banners and text links as you like, each with its own landing page. Activate or deactivate creatives at any time, and your affiliates can copy the code straight from their dashboard.

Emails & Notifications

• Customizable email templates: Edit the emails sent when an affiliate applies, is approved or declined, and earns a commission. HTML emails and email merge tags are supported.
• Commission alerts: Notify affiliates when they earn a commission, and notify yourself when an affiliate makes a sale.
• Custom dashboard messages: Show affiliates a different message depending on whether their account is approved, pending, or declined.
• Email marketing integration: Add new affiliates to your mailing list automatically with Mailchimp, MailPoet, AWeber, ActiveCampaign, GetResponse, or Keap (Infusionsoft).
