?? Getting Started

— Ready to increase sales with your new affiliate program? —

Setup your own affiliate WooCommerce system in minutes. Then launch your coupon affiliate marketing program to help increase your sales!

To get started, simply add the shortcode [couponaffiliates] to a new page. This will assign it as the dashboard parent for generating the unique dashboard page links, which you can share with affiliates.

Upon installation, a small setup wizard will help you get started and automatically generate the affiliate dashboard page for you.

— Migrating from another Affiliates Plugin? —

Migration of affiliate data to Coupon Affiliates is super simple, since for the most part it uses the existing data that’s stored by WooCommerce.

Once you install the plugin, it will look back at the full order history for each coupon, even those created before the installation, and display the stats & commission for these on the coupon affiliate dashboard. All you’ll need to do is assign your affiliate users to coupon codes, configure the settings, then you’re good to go!

FAQ

What is a “coupon-based” affiliate program?

Coupon Affiliates enhances affiliate marketing by integrating coupons as a core feature. Unlike traditional affiliate systems that rely primarily on referral links, this plugin allows affiliates to share their unique coupon codes. These codes not only track sales for commission purposes but also offer customers immediate discounts or special offers, enriching the purchasing experience. However, the Coupon Affiliates system still maintains the flexibility of referral links; affiliates can share URLs that automatically apply their coupon at checkout, and even if a coupon isnt used, you can still make the link alone track referrals, ensuring affiliates receive credit for every sale referred??.

Will there be more features added in the future?

Yes! New features are added frequently, most of which are based on feedback. So if you have any suggestions to help improve the coupon affiliates plugin, please get in touch!

Will this work with my existing coupons and orders?

Yes, once you install the plugin it will look back at the full order history for each coupon, even those created before the installation, and display the stats for these on the coupon affiliate dashboard too.

How do the affiliate referral URLs work?

A referral URL is automatically generated for the affiliate, and can be found on their dashboard. This link can then be shared by the affiliate. Anyone that visits the website using that link, will have the coupon code automatically applied to their account on checkout. Clicks are also tracked, and any sales made via the coupon are tracked as conversions.

Can I assign affiliate users to coupons?

Yes, you can assign affiliate users to coupons, which will give them direct access to their affiliates dashboard page, without needing to use a unique link. Click here to learn more.

What kind of coupon usage statistics are shown?

On the coupon affiliate dashboard, you (and your affiliates) will be able to see a variety of statistics including total uses, discount type, orders total, amount saved, commission earned, and more. You will also be able to see a recent order table (with general info such as date, order total, discount, products, commission etc), and with the pro version you can see a monthly orders/commission summary table for the past 12 months.

GDPR & Privacy

All data used and created by the Coupon Affiliates plugin is stored on your own website. We don’t track or collect ANY of your affiliate program data ourselves. You can optionally opt-in to share some basic usage data which helps us with providing support, fixing bugs, and improving the plugin, and can also opt-out at any time.

Do you provide support?

Yes. If you need any help setting up the affiliate plugin, please free to get in touch and we’ll be happy to help!

How can I report issues/bugs with the plugin?

You can report feature bugs by creating a support ticket. Please provide as much information as possible to make it easier for us to find a solution for you.

How can I report security bugs?

You can report security bugs through the Patchstack Vulnerability Disclosure Program. The Patchstack team help validate, triage and handle any security vulnerabilities. Report a security vulnerability.

Great affiliate plugin

loswiaheros October 13, 2024

I’m using this plugin in PRO version and I really enjoy it a lot! I experienced some issues and bugs on the way, but all after submitting the ticked for support was treated with great car and engagment of the author! Hope to meet on my way more people like Elliot (author of the plugin) – the world would so much easier then…

shareabiz August 21, 2024

I tried out several affiliate programs on WordPress and other platforms. This one is by far the best bang for your buck. They are always adding new features too.

Great & easy plugin with very good support

Julian Stark July 25, 2024

The plugin works as expected. The support ist ready to help. Thanks

lack of the commision acount and that can edit backend

akjiainc July 12, 2024 2 replies

This plugin does not support manual commission payment. There is no remaining commission display, no backend to edit, and no payment form to apply for. So for the free version, a feasible solution is to add an application form on the my-account page. Then after paying the commission once, clear the corresponding affiliate code data. You can add residual commission on the affiliate page and add a manual modification of residual commission option corresponding to the affiliate code in the background. it would be helpful for free plugin users

Stellar Plugin Support

topopti January 22, 2024 1 reply

I can’t say much about how the plugin works as I’m a developer and this is installed on a client’s site, though they do seem to be happy with it! What I can say is that it’s incredibly rare to see such engaged and competent support for WordPress plugins. We ran into an issue on the backend and Elliot was responsive and worked hard to get it fixed, even with multiple emails back and forth the issue was fixed within 24 hours. Cannot emphasize how rare this is and how much it is appreciated as a developer supporting clients. Thank you!!!
