WP Affiliate Platform Questions (F.A.Q)
Please leave a comment below if you have any questions.
@Daniele,
Seems like your first issue is to find a good solution to accept stripe payments. You can try our following free Stripe payments plugin to see if that one works for you to accept payment via Stripe.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/stripe-payments/
If you think it will work, you can then later add the affiliate plugin to the site (which will add the affiliate commission capability). That stripe payments plugin has an integration with this affiliate plugin. So that can be added at a later time.
Pre-sales questions:
Hi, I’m looking for a solution that:
1) let my visitors do a paid subscription through Stripe.
2) when the visitors subscribe, an affiliate id could be saved on their profile for further consultation.
3) the customers can be able to update the details of their cards in the future.
4) an email can automatically be sent to the subscriber (and to the affiliate, if any) in case in a given month the payment fails.
Can I achieve that with your plugin? Could you share some documentation that can help me to achieve what I want?
Cheers,
Daniele
@Kim, you send the payment manually at a regular interval (for example: 2 weeks after the month ends). You can review the commissions before you payout.
Does this plugin also pay the commissions to the affiliate? If they use their link to purchase an item in the shop, the affiliate gets their commission in their account, is it automatically put into their paypal account or do I have to send the payments manually?
@Henk, This plugin is for users who are selling products from their own site and want some affiliates to promote their products.
I am a publisher and a lot of merchants ask me if they can have their products on my website. I run a WooCommerce website and I have no idea how to do that? It’s clear that this plugin is meant for merchants that want to push their products to affiliates or can this plugin also work the other way around so that I can publish products of external merchants if they offer me clear product feeds, and how would that work? thanks a lot 🙂
@Vespa, Yes you can have different affiliate commissions for specific affiliates. However you will need to go in and manually change their commission rate.
