How to use my Affiliation Link [solved]

We have set up the Affiliates Enterprise program, but we don’t understand how to use the generated links? When trying to connect the generated link to specific context on the website, it is stating that the link is invalid. Here’s a sample of the affiliate enterprise links that are being produced for our affiliates: (?grayceegami_affiliate=c4ca4238a0b923820dcc509a6f75849b). How do we properly use these links?

  1. Hi Grayce,
    When the affiliate visits the affiliates-area page, then he can see his custom link (somethink like this http://www.example.com/?grayceegami_affiliate=c4ca4238a0b923820dcc509a6f75849b)
    If you want to create a custom link to specific page, you can use the [affiliates_url] shortcode.

    1. Hi Antonio,

      We input the Affiliates manually and once Saved in the back end of affiliated enterprise, the full link was not provided. The link was missing the (www.example.com/) only the (?grayceegami_affiliate=c4ca4238a0b923820dcc509a6f75849b) was given? How are we able to view the Full Link Name in the back end of the system? Under the Manage Affiliates tab?
      Do these affiliation links only work by being linked to website context? Or can the links be shared via cell phone and social media without being linked to website context?

      Thank You

      1. Hi,
        Usually the affiliates view their link from the frontend. If you want to share every affiliate’s link manually from the backend, you need to add the website before the affiliate’s param.
        In Affiliates->Manage Affiliates you can see their custom links, but only the param to add to the url. If you want to share these links manually, simply add your website before the param, for example, if your website is http://www.example.com, the links to share are http://www.example.com?grayceegami_affiliate=xxxxx
