How the Affiliate Manager Works
Once a campaign is published:
Each affiliate receives a unique affiliate link by email.
Affiliates share their link with their audience.
When a customer signs up through an affiliate link, commissions are tracked automatically.
Payout Tracking Flow
On the 1st of each month, commissions appear under Payout → Pending.
The account owner reviews payouts and chooses to approve or deny them.
Approved payouts are exported as a CSV file.
Payments are made manually via your payment gateway using the CSV.
After payment, the payout status must be marked as Paid in Affiliate Manager to keep reporting accurate.

Affiliates cannot log in to view stats, leads, or buyers.
Affiliates cannot download lead or buyer lists.
Existing recurring buyers cannot be retroactively tagged to imported affiliates.
