What Is AffiliateWP?
AffiliateWP is a premium WordPress plugin that lets you create, manage, and scale a complete self-hosted affiliate program directly from your WordPress dashboard — no SaaS platform fees, no third-party networks, no monthly limits. You own your data, your affiliates, and your program — completely.
With one-click integrations for WooCommerce and 28+ other popular WordPress eCommerce, membership, and form plugins, AffiliateWP connects seamlessly to your existing store or platform in minutes. Set commissions, generate affiliate links, track every referral, and pay your affiliates instantly — all from one clean, intuitive dashboard.
Core Features
Advanced Affiliate Tracking
AffiliateWP tracks every referral with industry-leading accuracy — even on servers with aggressive caching. Track referral links, affiliate coupon codes, custom affiliate landing pages, cross-domain promotions, direct link tracking, and more. Cookie-based tracking ensures affiliates get credit for sales even when customers return days later, with fully configurable cookie expiration windows.
1-Click Integrations with 28+ Plugins
Connect AffiliateWP to your WordPress store or platform in a single click. Supported integrations include WooCommerce, Easy Digital Downloads, MemberPress, Paid Memberships Pro, WPForms, Gravity Forms, Formidable Forms, Elementor, WP Simple Pay, MemberMouse, LifterLMS, LearnDash, Restrict Content Pro, and many more — making it the most widely compatible WordPress affiliate plugin available.
Flexible Commission Structures
Set global commission rates as a percentage or flat amount, then override them at every level — per affiliate, per product, per category, or per integration. Run different commission structures for different parts of your business simultaneously, with a clear, documented rate hierarchy that always applies the correct rate automatically.
Affiliate Coupon Code Tracking
Assign unique coupon codes to individual affiliates and track all sales made through those coupons automatically. Affiliates can promote their coupon code on social media, YouTube, podcasts, or any channel — and every sale is attributed to them accurately without requiring a traditional affiliate link.
Custom Affiliate Dashboard & Affiliate Portal
Give your affiliates a professional, fully branded frontend dashboard where they can view their stats, generate referral links, access creatives, check earnings, and request payouts — all without accessing your WordPress backend. The Affiliate Portal addon upgrades this experience further with a sleek, modern dashboard interface that keeps your affiliates informed, motivated, and active.
Easy Affiliate Management
Manage your entire affiliate program effortlessly from one screen. Approve or reject affiliate signups in one click, configure manual or automatic approval workflows, set up automated email notifications for key events, view individual affiliate performance stats, edit affiliate details, and manage referral statuses — all from the AffiliateWP admin panel.
1-Click Payouts via Stripe & PayPal
Pay all your affiliates in one click using the built-in Stripe Payouts or PayPal Mass Payment integration. Affiliates receive their earnings directly to their bank account or debit card — saving you hours of manual payment processing every month and keeping your affiliates happy with fast, reliable payouts.
Detailed Affiliate Reports
Get full visibility into your affiliate program performance with detailed, real-time reports. View referral counts, earnings, visit data, conversion rates, and top-performing affiliates — filtered by date range, affiliate, and status. Make data-driven decisions to grow your affiliate program and maximize your return from every affiliate relationship.
Smart Fraud Detection & Prevention
Protect your revenue with AffiliateWP’s built-in fraud detection technology. The system automatically identifies and flags suspicious referral patterns — including self-referrals and known fraudulent behaviors — helping you avoid paying out commissions on illegitimate sales before they cost you money.
Fully Internationalized — 30+ Languages
Launch your affiliate program in any language. AffiliateWP is fully translated and supports over 30 languages — making it the ideal choice for businesses with international affiliate networks and multilingual WordPress websites.
Developer Friendly — Hooks, Filters, REST API
AffiliateWP is built on WordPress’s core foundation and is fully extensible. Customize every part of the plugin using hooks, filters, and template overrides. The full REST API with Create, Update, and Delete operations gives developers complete programmatic control over affiliate data — and Zapier integration connects AffiliateWP to 700+ external web services and automation workflows.
Premium Addons — All Included
Recurring Referrals
Award your affiliates a commission every single time one of their referred customers makes a recurring subscription payment — not just on the initial signup. Set separate recurring commission rates (percentage or flat) at the global level or per individual affiliate. Limit the number of recurring commissions per customer if needed. Compatible with WooCommerce Subscriptions, Easy Digital Downloads Recurring Payments, MemberPress, Paid Memberships Pro, and more.
Tiered Affiliate Rates
Motivate your affiliates to drive more sales by rewarding them with automatically increasing commission rates as they hit performance milestones. Set as many tiers as you want based on the total number of paid referrals or total paid affiliate earnings. Enable automatic monthly tier resets to create a fresh performance race every month — keeping your affiliate program energized year-round.
Multi-Tier Commissions (MLM)
Unlock a powerful multi-level marketing commission structure where affiliates earn commissions not only on their own referrals but also on the sales made by the affiliates they recruit — across up to five earning tiers. Affiliates can view their entire network and recruits’ performance from a dedicated Network tab in the Affiliate Portal — creating a powerful, self-growing affiliate sales network with zero manual effort on your end.
Lifetime Commissions
Permanently link a customer to the affiliate who first referred them — so that affiliate earns a commission on every future purchase that customer makes, for life. Set a dedicated lifetime referral rate separately from your standard rate. Build stronger affiliate loyalty by offering lifetime earning potential on every customer they bring in.
Affiliate Landing Pages
Create dedicated, branded landing pages for individual affiliates that they can promote directly — without needing a traditional affiliate link in the URL. Affiliates share the landing page URL, and AffiliateWP attributes any resulting sales to them automatically. Ideal for social media promotion, ad campaigns, and brand ambassadors who need clean, link-free URLs.
Custom Affiliate Slugs
Allow affiliates to request and use a custom, memorable name in their referral URL instead of a generic numeric ID. Branded referral links like yoursite.com/?ref=john are more professional, more shareable, and convert significantly better than generic URL parameters.
Affiliate Product Rates
Set specific commission rates for individual affiliates and individual products simultaneously — giving you the most granular level of commission control available in any WordPress affiliate plugin. WooCommerce and Easy Digital Downloads compatible. These rates override all other rate settings, giving you absolute precision for VIP affiliate deals and product-specific promotions.
Signup Bonus
Attract and activate new affiliates by offering an automatic cash bonus the moment they join your program. Set a global signup bonus for all new affiliates or configure custom amounts per affiliate. A signup bonus immediately gives new affiliates a reason to start promoting — accelerating your affiliate program’s growth from day one.
Affiliate Leaderboard
Gamify your affiliate program with a public or private leaderboard that ranks your top affiliates by referrals, earnings, or visits. Embed it anywhere on your site using a shortcode. Use the leaderboard to run monthly affiliate contests, publicly recognize your top performers, and motivate every affiliate in your program to climb higher.
Store Credit
Pay affiliate commissions as store credit instead of cash payouts. Affiliates receive credit that can be used for future purchases on your WooCommerce store — reducing your cash payout obligations while giving affiliates tangible value. Ideal for product-based businesses with brand enthusiasts and superfan affiliates who love your products.
MailChimp Integration
Automatically add new affiliates to your MailChimp email list the moment they register. Keep your affiliates engaged with automated email sequences, newsletters, promotional updates, and performance tips — all delivered through your existing MailChimp account without any manual list management.
Zapier Integration
Connect AffiliateWP to over 700 web services and automation platforms using Zapier. Trigger automated workflows when affiliates register, when referrals are created, when payouts are made, and more — integrating your affiliate program seamlessly into your broader business automation stack.
REST API Extended
Add full Create, Update, and Delete operations to the AffiliateWP REST API — unlocking complete programmatic control over your affiliate program data. Build custom integrations, external dashboards, mobile apps, or automated data pipelines that interact with your affiliate program through a clean, documented REST API.
Fraud Prevention (Advanced)
The dedicated Fraud Prevention addon extends AffiliateWP’s built-in fraud detection with the ability to flag or automatically block referrals suspected of being fraudulent — based on IP matching, email patterns, and behavioral signals. Review flagged referrals before paying out and protect your program from revenue loss with zero manual monitoring required.
