Track partner referrals

Affiliates Pro and Affiliates Enterprise extend the Affiliates system for WordPress sites running affiliate or partner programs. The system records visits from affiliate links and attributes referrals to affiliates. Referrals can relate to customer orders or other tracked actions, and the system includes commissions on referred visitors.

These utilities support programs for sellers, shops, distributors, blogs, membership sites, product launches, and other websites. Partners can use an affiliate dashboard to access links to website pages and view earnings and performance information. Registration can be automated, while unlimited affiliate management sections help administrators organize the program.

Configure dashboards and commissions

Dashboard sections, blocks, shortcodes, and template-based sections let site administrators shape the affiliate experience. The paid editions add tools for managing commission calculations and review.

Affiliates Pro includes all functions available in the free Affiliates system. Its additional functions include:

• A more detailed dashboard with additional sections, shortcodes, and flexible template-based sections.
• Referral rates, including formula-based rates, and advanced commission rates.
• Banner management and advanced notifications.
• Affiliate exports, advanced totals, and mass payment documents and exports.
• More integrations and advanced integration features.

Enterprise program tools

Affiliates Enterprise includes all Affiliates Pro features and integrations. It adds support for multiple tiers, campaigns, and pixel tracking with picture and iframe tracking pixels. Further dashboard sections, blocks, and shortcodes support more structured program management and tracking.

Connect supported workflows

The paid editions support integrations and extensions for e-commerce, events, forms, memberships, lead generation, and lead tracking. The advanced WooCommerce integration includes automated status synchronization, recurring referrals, and product rates. The Events Manager integration records referrals and essential booking data for referred bookings, and enables commissions on bookings.

Form integrations connect affiliate activity with Ninja Forms, Formidable Forms, and Contact Form 7. They can support affiliate registration, referral recording, commission activity, and lead tracking. BuddyPress can display affiliate content in a user profile, while the reCAPTCHA integration connects reCAPTCHA with the affiliate registration form.

The workflow can cover registration and link sharing through visits, referrals, commission calculation, reporting, and exports. The developer framework uses a data model intended for customized solutions.

Install and configure

Install the selected paid edition on the WordPress site. Configure its affiliate dashboard, registration process, management sections, integrations, and referral options. Add relevant blocks or shortcodes to front-end areas so affiliates can access links and performance information, then connect supported e-commerce, event, form, or tracking workflows as needed.
