Setting up the affiliate programme

Choose the attribution model and commission rule, add influencers and partners, generate tracking links, then approve and mark commissions as paid.

4 min de lecturaÚltima actualización: 2026-08-30

The affiliate plugin measures the people who bring you sales — influencers, resellers, referring customers — through trackable links, and records a commission on each sale. Two settings hold the programme up: who a sale is credited to (attribution) and how much commission it earns. Decide both before you add a partner; changing them later does not restate past commissions.

Antes de empezar

  • The affiliates plugin enabled
  • A decision on the commission: percentage or fixed amount, and on what base
  • Your returns window — auto-approval must be set longer than it

Pasos

Las pantallas son ilustrativas; los datos de tu panel serán distintos.

  1. Paso 1: Set the attribution and commission rules

    Satış Ortakları → Ayarlar is the programme's constitution. The attribution model decides whether a sale counts as first touch or last touch, and the attribution window sets how many days a click stays valid. The default commission type and value are what a new partner is proposed. With 'Kargoyu baz tutardan hariç tut' on, commission is computed on the goods total only.

  2. Paso 2: Add your first partner

    On Satış Ortakları → Partnerler press 'Yeni ortak'. Leave the referral code empty and one is generated; type your own if you want something a person can say out loud, like 'ayse10'. Partner type only splits reporting — what decides the money is the commission type and value on this form, which override the defaults for this partner.

  3. Paso 3: Generate tracking links and QR codes

    'Paylaş' on the partner row opens the share-links dialog. Pick a platform and a target type, put a path like /products/urun-slug in the target field, and 'Bağlantı oluştur' produces both a full share URL and a short URL. Give the influencer the short one with 'Bio için kopyala', and use 'PNG' for an in-store QR poster. Generate a separate link per platform — it is the only way the breakdown means anything.

  4. Paso 4: Optionally give the partner their own panel

    The partner form carries a 'Mağaza yönetimi erişimi ver' switch: turn it on and that person can sign in to the store admin and see only their own affiliate statistics, nothing else. In their sidebar they get 'Ortaklık İstatistiklerim'. It saves you sending a screenshot every month.

  5. Paso 5: Approve and pay the commissions

    Under Satış Ortakları → Komisyonlar every record starts as pending. 'Onayla' approves it; once you have paid, 'Ödendi işaretle' records that and the panel asks for an optional payout reference. If the order was returned, 'İptal et' reverses the commission. Pending records auto-approve once the settings' auto-approval period elapses, so keep that period longer than your returns window.

  6. Paso 6: Read the programme on the overview

    Satış Ortakları → Genel Bakış puts attributed revenue, clicks, conversion rate and the three commission stages (pending, approved, paid) side by side. The funnel tells you where you lose people between click and order: plenty of clicks and no add-to-carts is not a partner problem, it is the page the link lands on. For per-partner detail, open Satış Ortakları → Partnerler; the page itself is headed Ortaklar.

Consejos

Keep auto-approval longer than your returns window

'Otomatik onay süresi (gün)' approves pending commissions by itself. Offer 14 days of returns and set this to 7 and you have paid commission on orders that came back. Setting it to 0 disables auto-approval entirely.

One link per platform

Using a single link in both an Instagram bio and a WhatsApp status makes the platform breakdown useless. You may create as many links as you like for the same partner and target; the commission still lands on that one partner.

Preguntas frecuentes

What happens if I leave the referral code empty?
One is generated and the links work with it. If you want a code an influencer can say out loud, type it yourself — changing it later breaks every link already distributed.
Two partners' links were clicked. Who gets the commission?
The attribution model decides: first touch credits the first click, last touch the click immediately before the order. Once the attribution window has elapsed, that click no longer counts at all.
How do I claw back commission on a returned order?
Press 'İptal et' on that row under Satış Ortakları → Komisyonlar; the record moves to reversed and drops out of what is owed. On an already-paid commission it leaves a record to offset against the next payout.
