Commission Calculation
In the Commission Calculation section, you are provided with options that you can enable to adjust the commission calculation on sales.
Include discounts, where the commission will be calculated after deducting the total discount from the order. Here, you can adjust the commission calculation based on the discount percentage, discount amount, or a custom percentage. You can also set exceptions for coupon codes assigned to affiliates.
Exclude Gift Cards, where the commission will be calculated after removing the gift card amount from the product price.
Exclude shipping and taxes, where the commission will be calculated after deducting the shipping and taxes from the order.
Exclude VAT, which can be used to remove the VAT from the product price before calculating the affiliate commission.
Disable commission for Self Referral
If enabled, the affiliate will not receive the commission for their self purchases in the store. You also get the option to disable commissions, when another affiliate purchases through their referral.
Give commission only for new customers
If enabled, the commission will only be given to the affiliate for the new customers who use their referral to purchase in your store. You also have the option to create an exception for affiliates.
Verify Automatically
Our app automatically approves or rejects the sale based on its status in your store. For example, if the sale is refunded or cancelled in your store, the sale will be automatically marked as rejected.
Record Nil Sales
If enabled, the affiliate sales where the commission is $0 will also be recorded. You also have the option to send a notification to affiliates for nil sales. There is also an option to record sales made using the personal codes of affiliates.
