Coupon Affiliates for WooCommerce (PRO) 5.12.3

The Coupon Affiliates for WooCommerce (PRO) plugin is a highly-rated solution that provides a unique and effective way to run an affiliate program by basing all referral tracking on standard WooCommerce coupon codes, rather than relying solely on referral links/cookies.

The PRO version unlocks critical features for professional, scalable affiliate management, security, and payment automation.

🌟 Key Features of the PRO Version

The PRO version transforms the basic coupon assignment into a complete, sophisticated affiliate marketing platform.

1. Affiliate Management & Engagement

Affiliate Registration System: Allow users to apply to your program through a customizable form. You can choose for applications to be auto-approved or require manual approval. The system then automatically generates the coupon and sends a welcome email.

Dedicated Affiliate Dashboard: Affiliates get a user-friendly, private dashboard to view:

Real-time coupon usage and sales statistics.

Commission earned (Paid vs. Unpaid).

Recent referred orders with product details.

Referral URLs (which automatically apply the coupon at checkout).

Floating Affiliate Widget: A modern, compact widget that gives affiliates instant access to their stats and coupon/link.

Leaderboards: (PRO) Display a leaderboard of your top-performing affiliates using a shortcode to foster competition and motivation.

Custom Notifications: Automatically send email notifications to affiliates when their coupon code is used and they earn a commission.

2. Advanced Commission Structures

Flexible Commission Types: Set commission as a percentage (%) of the total order, a fixed amount per order, or a fixed amount per product. You can even use a combination of these.

WooCommerce Subscriptions: Seamlessly integrate with the WooCommerce Subscriptions plugin to offer commissions on subscription renewals (or toggle it off to reward only the first order).

Lifetime Commissions: Reward affiliates for sales generated by customers they referred long ago, encouraging customer loyalty.

Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) / Tiered Commissions: (PRO) Allow existing affiliates to refer new affiliates and earn a percentage of commission from the sales their sub-affiliates generate.

Performance Bonuses: (PRO) Reward affiliates with bonuses or higher rates when they hit specific sales or performance goals.

3. Payouts, Security & Reporting

Automated Payouts: (PRO) Offers one-click payout integration via:

PayPal Payouts (Mass Payouts)

Stripe Payouts

Also supports generating detailed reports for manual bank transfers.

Payout Request System: Affiliates can submit payout requests directly from their dashboard, and you can set a payment threshold before commission can be claimed.

Advanced Admin Reports: (PRO) Access unlimited date range reports, export data to CSV, and use date comparison features for deep analytics.

QR Code Referrals: (PRO) Automatically generates a unique QR code for each affiliate, perfect for offline or print promotion.

Fraud Prevention: Tools to monitor activity and detect suspicious referrals.

💡 Why Choose the Coupon-Based Approach?

The core advantage of Coupon Affiliates over traditional link-based plugins is:

Visibility: Customers prefer using a visible code (e.g., SARAH15) over clicking a hidden link.

Cross-Channel: Codes work equally well on social media, podcasts, print ads, and in-store, where links often fail.

Trust: Customers feel more confident using a specific discount code provided by a person they trust.
