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
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.
Create your organization
Enter your company name, a short description, and your industry. This is the workspace your team will share.
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.
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.
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.Invite your team
Send invites to teammates by email. You can set their role now or later from Settings → Team.
What to do next
With setup done, a good first-day checklist looks like this:- Create your first program in Affiliate Programs — set a commission and attribution window.
- Invite a few affiliates from Affiliates → Add Affiliate, or share your public sign-up link.
- Watch the Dashboard for your first clicks and conversions.
- Configure Payouts under Payouts → Provider Settings so you’re ready when commissions come due.
