Step-by-Step Guide to Creating an Affiliate Campaign

Step 1: Start by Clicking the “Add” Button

Navigate to the Campaign page and click the “+ Add” button to begin creating your campaign.

Step 2: Choose Your Campaign Source

Select the source for your campaign, such as a funnel, website, or store where your products are listed.

Step 3: Configure Source Details

Choose the landing page where potential customers will arrive. The system will generate a default campaign URL, which includes a unique affiliate link. The placeholder <<affiliate_id>> will automatically be replaced with each affiliate’s unique ID.

Note: Currently, only funnels, websites, and stores support product sales via affiliate campaigns. You can also track leads and reward affiliates for generating leads through forms, surveys, and calendars.

Step 4: Review Your Product List

Review the products associated with your selected source. Add or remove products to ensure that only commission-eligible items are included.

Step 5: Set Default Commission

Establish a default commission for your campaign. You can choose either a flat fee or a percentage of the product price.

Step 6: Customize Product-Level Commissions (Optional)

Optionally, set specific commissions at the product level to tailor payouts based on individual product prices.

Step 7: Enable Multi-Tier Commissions

Access the Advanced Commissions settings to enable multi-tier commissions, supporting up to 7 tiers for more complex commission structures.

Step 8: Configure Tier-Specific Commissions

Assign commissions to each tier by either applying the default rate or customizing them for each level based on performance.

Step 9: Add a Campaign Description (Optional)

Add a campaign description to outline its purpose, making it more appealing to potential affiliates.

Step 10: Assign Affiliates Directly

Review affiliate details, such as their join date and total affiliate count, before directly assigning them to your campaign.

Step 11: Adjust Additional Settings

Further customize your campaign with options such as:

Email templates for affiliate onboarding
Cookie duration for tracking affiliate activity
Payout terms
Including setup fees in commission calculations
Enabling sub-affiliate signups
Auto-enrolling new customers as sub-affiliates

Step 12: Publish or Save as Draft

Once satisfied with your campaign setup, choose to Publish it immediately or Save as Draft for further editing.
