Please advice how to set or customize and necessary plug-ins.

Installed plugins

Our business plan is follows;

Groups
-Platinum member(Independent affiliater)

Product prices(Only one item)
– @ $50 for Customer

– @ $40 for Platinum member(It can be purchased for own use)

Direct referral reward(1st Reward)
-Platinum members get $10 per one sales.
-Gold members get $7 per one sales.
*If existing customers are independent to Gold members, 1st reward does not occur from him/her.

    Thank you for advice.
    It is very helpful.
    I will try to manage “independent scheme” by manual operation.

    Hi Masayuki,

    From your description I assume that Gold and Platinum members qualify as affiliates, while normal customers do not.

    One approach to your setup would be to use the general settings under Affiliates > Tiers for affiliates in general (Gold) and use specific settings for Platinum members.

    To set the general rate, go to Affiliates > Settings and use:

    Default referral calculation : Referral Amount
    Default referral calculation value : 7

    With this setting, affiliates get $7 per sale.

    To set the tier rates in general, go to Affiliates > Tiers and use these settings:

    [x] Enable multi-tiered referrals
    Levels : 1

    Level rates*
    Level 1 : 0.43

    [x] Level rates are relative

    * Note that these are rates, i.e. you cannot set a fixed quantity. To get close to the $3 per sale commission, 0.43 is used which results in $7 * 0.43 = $3.01 per sale for level 1. If you were to use rates with the “Level rates are relative” checked, assuming that the product price is $100, a level rate of 0.03 would grant $3 per sale. If you can base your commissions on total sale amount, that would be another option.

    Platinum :

    You need to set the referral amount for each platinum member specifically, i.e. you would go to Affiliates > Manage Affiliates > Edit the platinum member’s entry > New Attribute:

    Key : Referral Amount
    Value : 10

    This grants $10 per sale for the affiliate. Note that this has an effect on the level 1 rate as well, the level 1 commission would effectively be $10 * 0.43 = $4.30 instead of $3.01 as for Gold affiliates.

    As you have very specific requirements, this would be the closest you can get in my opinion without customizations. I hope that helps.
