This walkthrough mirrors the guided setup Afflo runs the first time you sign in. You can come back to any step later from Settings or Integrations.

Before you start

  • An email address for your admin account
  • Your Shopify store admin login (if you use Shopify)
  • A company domain if you want to send branded emails

The seven setup steps

1

Choose a plan

Pick a subscription that fits the number of affiliates, programs, and creator searches you expect. You can change plans later from Settings → Billing.
2

Create your organization

Enter your company name, a short description, and your industry. This is the workspace your team will share.
3

Select your integrations

Tick the ecommerce and payment tools you plan to use (Shopify, Stripe, PayPal, and others). Afflo will walk you through each one.
4

Connect Shopify

If you chose Shopify, approve the install from your Shopify admin. Afflo then syncs your orders so sales can be attributed to partners.
5

Add your sending domain

Enter a domain you own (like yourbrand.com) and add the DNS records Afflo shows you. Your outreach and partner emails will come from this domain.
6

Invite your team

Send invites to teammates by email. You can set their role now or later from Settings → Team.
7

Welcome

You’re done. Click Get Started to open your Dashboard.
Any step can be skipped with Skip in the top-right and revisited later. Your progress is saved as you go.

What to do next

With setup done, a good first-day checklist looks like this:
  1. Create your first program in Affiliate Programs — set a commission and attribution window.
  2. Invite a few affiliates from Affiliates → Add Affiliate, or share your public sign-up link.
  3. Watch the Dashboard for your first clicks and conversions.
  4. Configure Payouts under Payouts → Provider Settings so you’re ready when commissions come due.
