What the page shows
- Four metric cards at the top: Total Programs, Positive Sentiment, Reach, and Engagement Rate.
- A grid of program cards, each showing the name, description, commission, status badge (Active, Scheduled, Expired, Capped, or Inactive), number of affiliates enrolled, and performance totals.
- A filter bar to search, filter by status, and sort.
Create a program
Click Create Program in the top-right. The wizard has six steps — you can go back or forward at any point.1
Name
Give the program a clear, partner-facing name (for example, “Summer Launch Partners”).
2
Commission
Choose Percentage or Fixed amount, and whether partners earn per sale or per click.
3
Attribution
Set the cookie window (how long a click counts) and the attribution model — first click or last click.
4
Tracking
Review the tracking URL pattern and any parameters that will be appended to your partners’ links.
5
Discount code (optional)
Let Afflo issue a discount code to each affiliate in this program. Shoppers using the code are attributed automatically.
6
Advanced
Optionally set a start and end date, or cap how many affiliates can enroll.
Edit, pause, or delete
Open the actions menu on any program card to edit, view analytics, or delete. A deleted program stops attributing new sales, but historical data stays in your reports.Tips
- Keep your first program simple — one commission rate, a 30-day window, and no cap. You can refine once you see performance data.
- Use separate programs when commissions or terms genuinely differ. Otherwise one program with tiered affiliates (bronze / silver / gold / platinum) is easier to manage.
- Discount codes raise conversion for partners without a link-heavy audience (podcasts, newsletters, offline events).
