Referral Email Sent to Affiliates for Free EDD Product Checkouts – How to Stop?

—

Hi Kento,

We have discovered that zero priced EDD products being checked out are still triggering referral emails to affiliates (if sent by affiliate that is).

Do you know of a way to account for this and bypass email trigger if only thing in cart is zero-priced product?

We are trying to mitigate “hey I made referrals, but didn’t make any commissions.” type emails 🙂

      Cool, many thanks for sharing these!

      I also like the post and how you explain the solution using a different rate for vendor products. I think this is a great example on how people can synergize, great job! 🙂

    Hi there,

    Yes there is a way to avoid these, there’s no direct option you could set but you can inhibit the notification using a filter.
