Manage your affiliates

The Affiliates tab will help you manage all your affiliate details and activities on a single page.

You can add a maximum monthly commission limit on this page, which allows administrators to cap the commissions that affiliates can earn for their referrals. This will help you limit the commissions disbursed by you to the affiliates, keeping commission payouts within acceptable financial limits as appropriate for the business owner.

For example, if affiliate A earns $4,000 in commissions in a month and the maximum commission limit is set at $3,500, the additional $500 commission will be capped.

If an affiliate purchases a product using their own referral link, then they will still receive a commission as per the rates set by you.
