Not what I need

by
Hello, It seems that this isn’t what I need. I didn’t realize that I have to buy a whole bunch of plugins. Can you please let me know why Ihave to buy an extra plugin just to make links for affiliates? It seems that I have to purchase separate add ons to do anything with this.
Please let me know and if I have to buy all these addon’s so that I can create affiliate links for affiliates then I think I may need a refund.
Thanks,
James

Hi James,
Welcome to our support forum.
In general you don’t need to use any addon for your affiliates links. The only case where you need an addon to adjust affiliates links, is when you choose to use the affiliate username instead of the id.
In this case, instead of the default ie:
http://www.example.com?affiliate=1
you will have ie
http://www.example.com?affiliate=jim
However, as I mentioned this is the only case and is covered by a single addon, Affiliates by Username.
Except for that, any link to your site can become an affiliate link as long as you add the affiliate URL parameter and the affiliate id. For example:
http://www.example.com?affiliate=1
http://www.example.com/shop?affiliate=1
Each affiliate can see their affiliate links in Affiliates Dashboard Overview. Moreover, with Affiliates Pro version you are using, your affiliates can also use the Link tool that generates URLs automatically.
Kind regards,
George
