What are Affiliates?
Affiliates are external partners (influencers, bloggers, brand ambassadors) who promote your store using a unique referral link and earn a commission percentage on each successful referral. Unlike regular referral customers who organically share with friends, affiliates are manually added by you and tracked separately.How It Works
- You add an affiliate with their contact info and commission rate.
- Referbro generates a unique referral link for them.
- The affiliate shares the link with their audience.
- You track performance and export reports from the Affiliates page.
