Different rates for different affiliates

Posted in

Hi there,

we would like to give our affiliates differents rates, depending which affiliates there are.

We want to give our customers the opportunity of “customers recruit customers”. So they’ll get a coupon which they can give other people, if they order they will receive a fixed amount like e.g. 20€.

Other affiliates should recive different rates, here a fixed rate of 10 % is needed. This affiliates are not customers, they are more like calssic affiliates. So we want them to register somewhere (or we register them directly) and provide them a coupon code and a ffiliate link as well.

So we have like these two cases, how is it possible to set this up in affiliate pro? Which Add-Ons (except of WooCommerce integration) is needed?

Can we change the rates for some affiliates as well, like make them individuell? I guess you can to this in “rates” where you can create a specific rate for an affiliate.

Thank you!

    Hi Eugen,

    thank you very much for the answer. It seems like everything works now.

    But I still don’t get how we can recruit affiliates.

    1. For “customers recruit customers” it seems like that it is possible to recruit them when they register as a user after their order. Do we have to put them in the group “customers recruit customers” manually after their registration?

    And for the coupon, at the moment we have to make a coupon for the affiliate and after that the same for WooCommerce so that both sides get the value. Does this works automatically with your plugin “Affiliate Coupon”?

    2. For other affiliates with the fixed rate we want them to register either manually or provide them a link for registration withour a order on our website. Is that possible as well?

    Best regards

      Hi Gerome,

      I trust you are well and safe today!

      With regards to your first inquiry, yes it is possible to have them added automatically to a group upon registration. This is made possible by an extension developed by my colleague. Here’s a link to the plugin:
      * https://github.com/geotsiokos/customers-auto-group.

      You can download and install this on your site.

      You would need to modify line 46 and change the “Customers” to the desired name of a group you would prefer or use as is.
      * https://github.com/geotsiokos/customers-auto-group/blob/master/customers-auto-group.php#L46

      What the plugin does is it automatically adds new customers to Customers group. If you like you can remove lines 43,44,45,47 and add the group name of your choice on line 46 instead of Customers.

      And lastly, it is very possible to have them register them manually. And you can also create a separate group for the customers/affiliate to be who don’t haven’t processed an order.

      I remain available to help if you need any further help.

      STAY SAFE and I wish you a very fine and productive day ahead.
      Kindest regards,
      Eugen.

        Hi Eugen,

        thank you very much for the answer. We’ll try that out.

        For the manually registration, can we send them a link or how does that work? Where do we find the link?

        And for the coupon: At the moment we have to make a coupon for the affiliate and after that the same for WooCommerce so that both sides get the value, we have to create both manually. Does this works automatically with your plugin “Affiliate Coupon”?

        Best regards

    Hi Gerome,

    I trust you are feeling awesome today and that the week has been productive!

    Thank you so much for using Affiliates Pro and for being a valued customer of our plugins.

    With respect to your inquiry:
    > We want to give our customers the opportunity of “customers recruit customers”. So they’ll get a coupon which they can give other people if they order they will receive a fixed amount like e.g. 20€.

    You could install our Groups plugin and perform the following:
    * Create a group
    * From your WordPress admin dashboard, click on Users.
    * From there you should be able to assign the desired customers to the group you created above.

    Configuring the rate for your grouped customers.
    * Navigate to Affiliates -> Rates
    * Add a rate of type Amount and specify the 20€(without the currency symbol).
    * Select the group you created above for the groups option.
    * Click on Create

    With regards to the second inquiry:
    > Other affiliates should recive different rates, here a fixed rate of 10 % is needed. This affiliates are not customers, they are more like calssic affiliates. So we want them to register somewhere (or we register them directly) and provide them a coupon code and a ffiliate link as well.

    You would simply need to:
    * Navigate to Affiliates -> Rates
    * Add a rate of type Rate and specify percentage as 0.1(the represents the 10%).

    To help with the affiliate registration, you can use the following resource to have those setup:
    * http://docs.itthinx.com/document/affiliates-pro/shortcodes/
    * http://docs.itthinx.com/document/affiliates-pro/shortcodes/basic-shortcodes/affiliates_registration/

    Now onto your last inquiries:
    > So we have like these two cases, how is it possible to set this up in affiliate pro? Which Add-Ons (except of WooCommerce integration) is needed?

    Yes, this is possible. And you would need our FREE Groups plugin

    > Can we change the rates for some affiliates as well, like make them individuell? I guess you can to this in “rates” where you can create a specific rate for an affiliate.

    Yes, you can assign rates for individual affiliates when creating the rate.

    Once again, I must thank you for using our plugins and for being an awesome client of Affiliates Pro. We are very glad to know you are using the plugin.

    I wish you a very fun and productive day ahead.
    Kindest regards,
    Eugen.
