Affiliate for WooCommerce

Create and embed affiliate registration forms anywhere on your WooCommerce store using a shortcode and allow people to join your program.

Choose what information you need from them – name, email, social profiles, how they will promote your brand, etc.

You can customize the default form using Elementor Form Builder and Contact Form 7 to get more details about the affiliates.

Recruit unlimited affiliates and streamline onboarding by approving applications manually (recommended) or automatically based on user roles.

Give affiliates multiple ways to promote — referral links, vanity coupons, or dedicated landing pages. Track every visit and conversion accurately, no matter how they share.

You can customize tracking parameters (e.g., ?ref= or ?aff=) and let affiliates personalize their IDs to create clean, branded links like – https://demo.storeapps.org/?ref=48 or https://demo.storeapps.org/?aff=35.

Reward affiliates automatically when customers purchase through their links, coupons, or landing pages — all seamlessly managed.

Create flexible commission plans by product and category, brand, product taxonomy, affiliate and affiliate group (tags), user role, payment method, coupons, or referral medium.

Also set commission plans based on revenue generated, past orders, order subtotal, first or repeat purchases, last referral days, subscriptions and renewals, multi-tiers, or set lifetime commissions — giving you complete control over your affiliate program.

You also get the Preset and Duplicate options to quickly create commission plans. See how to setup commission plans →

Set up hundreds of commission plans like these:

• 20% storewide commission but 30% commissions for three affiliates.
• 40% commission for Instagram influencers, 30% for Ambassadors.
• 25% commission on “Sports” category only.
• $10 flat commission on Macbooks (brand-specific).
• 30% commission on first orders (referral program).
• 15% for affiliates generating below $5,00 in revenue, otherwise 20%.
• $20 commission on prepaid orders, zero on COD.

Set up multi-tier commission plans where affiliates earn from their own sales as well as from the sales generated by affiliates they refer.

For example, John refers Lijo, and Lijo refers Gifty. When a customer purchases through Gifty’s referral link, all three — Gifty, Lijo, and John — earn a commission.

Create two-tier, three-tier, or multi-level structures with an unlimited number of tiers to grow your affiliate network.

Integrate with WooCommerce Subscriptions plugin and set commission plans for both parent subscription orders and subsequent renewals.

• 30% only on parent subscription (zero commission for renewals).
• 25% for first payment and subsequent renewals until canceled.
• $15 on first payment, $10 for subsequent renewals for a specific product.
• $20 on first payment, $10 for the following nine renewals.
• Zero commission on first order, 15% for next six renewals only to John on social media marketing course.

Attract and retain affiliates by offering lifetime commissions, allowing them to earn from all future purchases made by customers they refer.

Enable or disable lifetime commissions for specific affiliates or groups, giving you full control over your affiliate program.

Create and share ready-to-use marketing campaigns, also known as advertising campaigns or unlimited creatives with your affiliates using the familiar WordPress editor.

Provide branded assets like banners, logos, landing pages, videos, swipe files, ready-to-use HTML codes, ebooks, infographics, charts, slides, audio clips and other assets to help them promote effectively.

Maintain consistency with brand guidelines, product visuals, and affiliate terms, and restrict access by sharing specific campaigns with selected affiliates or groups.

Pay affiliates in bulk via PayPal (MassPay/Payouts) directly from the plugin or automate payouts using Stripe and PayPal with controls like refund periods and minimum or maximum payout limits.

Another option to settle commissions are store credits and fixed cart coupons via Smart Coupons plugin. Affiliates can use them on your store to make purchases.

You can also mark commissions as paid and then pay manually via bank transfer, wire transfer, check payments. Alternatively, mark reward points and assign them to affiliates via the Points and Rewards plugin.

Track what your affiliates are promoting and how they’re performing with real-time insights, including a leaderboard of top-performing partners.

Orders are automatically linked to affiliates, and commission statuses update as order statuses change — pending, completed, refunded without any manual effort.

Get deeper insights with product and customer-level performance, conversion rates, and detailed visitor data like referral source, conversion medium, device, and browser.

Give affiliates a self-serve dashboard (affiliate area or affiliate portal) within their account to manage everything — from generating referral links and requesting coupons to tracking commissions and performance.

Affiliates can access campaigns, marketing assets, and key metrics in one place, while you can also display the dashboard on any page using a shortcode.

A built-in ‘Network Tab’ lets both affiliates and admins track and manage multi-tier relationships and referral chains.

Organize affiliates using tags and assign tailored commission plans, campaigns, or rules for each group.

Use default or custom tags like “Influencers” or “Dormant” to segment affiliates, and quickly find, filter, and manage them with powerful search and predefined labels.

• Export affiliate data to CSV — all or filtered.
• Monthly performance summary emails to keep affiliates motivated.
• Affiliate program performance directly to owner’s inbox each month.
• Direct link tracking – Let affiliates link to your site without their referral link.
• Credit first or last affiliate with commission who referred the customer.
• Allow or block self-referrals (affiliates earning on their own purchases).
• Ready-to-use affiliate terms and conditions templates
• Prevent affiliate signup spam with reCaptcha, manually approve affiliates
