      Hi,
      you need to select ‘Referral amount method’, and set ACM::only_coupons as value.

      Hi Connor,
      I have created this plugin that is easier to configure.
      Download and install de plugin.
      Then in Affiliates->Settings:Commissions set ACM:only_coupons as custom method.
      With this plugin, if the referral is created from a link, then set a 0 value to this (the referral is created).
      If the referral is created from a coupon, then 0.20 as rate is used. If you need to change this value, you only need to change this line:
      public static $rate = 0.20;
      on the plugin file.
      Kind Regards,

          Hi Connor,
          you can compress the file to a .zip file and install this like a plugin, or you can upload the .php file to wp-content/plugins
          Kind Regards,

    Thanks Connor,
    The easiest way to do this is don’t share the affiliate’s link. If you edit your affiliates-area page and only display the coupons, but no the custom links, then the affiliates can not know what is their IDs.
    For security reasons, if you want to filter the referrals to be generated only when a coupon is used, you can create a custom method. You can use this custom method as reference ( It does exactly what you want, but you can use as a reference to create your own solution ).
    Kind Regards,
