You can create various programs for affiliates with different commission rules, which helps you categorize and manage affiliates with ease.
To create a new program, you can go to Program and click the Create program button in the top right corner.
There must be at least ONE program.
Next, give your program a descriptive title (you can always change this later) and click Create.
Duplicating a program copies its settings, but affiliates remain with the original program, preserving your existing affiliate relationships and performance metrics.
To duplicate a program, you can go to Program, choose the program you want to duplicate and then click the three dots in the upper right hand corner and click the Duplicate this program button.
Default commission is the commission given to all affiliates in the program when they successfully bring orders. You can choose between Percent of sales, Fixed amount per order, or Fixed amount per item.
To set up the default commission rate for your program, go to Program > Edit, there in the Edit page, you will find the Commission rules section.
Percent of sale is a certain percentage of the order's total sales.
For example, if you set the commission rate to 10% of sale, your affiliates will receive 10% of the order's total sales each time they bring back orders.
Affiliate commission rates can vary greatly depending on the niche, the products and services being promoted, or the affiliate program in use. Here are some recommended ranges of commission rates for different niches:
Fashion
5-15%
Beauty
15-20%
Jewelry
15-30%
Health & Wellness
10-30%
Fitness
10-20%
Home & Garden
10-20%
Baby
5-15%
Food & Beverages
5-20%
Pets
10-20%
Sexual Wellness
10-15%
However, please keep in mind that this is just our recommendation. It's best to calculate and decide your affiliate commission rate based on your own store's profit margins. To make sure that commissions are calculated on the exact base you want, please set up Commissionable Sales!
Fixed amount per order is a fixed amount for every order.
For example, if you set the commission rate to $3 per order, your affiliates will receive $3 each time they bring back orders regardless of the orders' value.
Fixed amount per item is a fixed amount for every item of the order.
For example, if you set the commission rate to $3 per item, your affiliates will receive $6 each time they bring back orders of 2 items.
(version-based) Tiers are different commission rates for different affiliates based on their all-time personal sales performance. Tiers can be reset so that all affiliates will start at the same tier after a certain cycle.
