The affiliate sign-up page in 1ShoppingCart asks for key information like full name, company, address, SSN/EIN for tax purposes, paypal email address (if different from the email they use). Also there is an agreement they have to confirm.

I’ve looked around the docs and didn’t see how that is handled here.

Andrea,

Sorry, not yet. This feature is coming soon though – hopefully in v4.0 (mid August).

Hi Ravi –

Is there a way to assign a sale to an affiliate? I just made a sale that should have gone to one and would like to credit them within DAP.

Thanks – loving this software

“No data found” means that no affiliates have made any referrals. If you want order info, go to the “Orders” (previously “Transactions”) page.

Thank you.
Does ‘no data found’ tell me ‘no sales’ or does that tell me that I made an error somewhere?

Mark,

You can run “Affiliates > Reports”.

I see traffic from affiliates.
How do I know when a sale is made? I don’t want to wait until I can run the payments report.

Max, >>When they have signed up for ‘Affiliates’ how do I specify what they can promote?<< They can promote any product on your site (that is being sold through DAP, of course). There's only one affiliate link regardless of which product they promote. Of course, you need to make sure you have actually set up affiliate commissions on the backend for all of your products. Affiliates will not earn commissions on products for which you have not set up any commissions. >>Do I just create the usual PayPal sales page, and they just link to it using the special affiliate link?<< Correct. >>And then the PayPal sends them commission..<< Paypal won't automatically send them any commissions. From the DAP Dashboard, you have to "export" affiliates for payment (say at the beginning of each month), which generates a CSV file that is "Paypal Mass-Pay Ready". You then upload the file to Paypal (click on "Send Payments" > "Mass Pay" in your Paypal account), and then send out payments through Paypal. - Ravi Jayagopal

And then the PayPal sends them commission..
i.e. if they sign up to a one time payment they get 50%
or recurring the get it every month

does dap do that automatically?
confusing!

When they have signed up for ‘Affiliates’ how do I specify what they can promote?

Do I just create the usual PayPal sales page, and they just link to it using the special affiliate link?
