Commission Payments with Store Credits

Store credits are a great way of paying affiliates their commission. By paying affiliates their commission through store credits, they end up using it to make purchases on your store.

GoAffPro provides merchants with the option to pay their affiliates using store credits. These include paying them by issuing gift cards, store discount codes, or even personal coupon codes for making purchases.

Here we take a look at how paying affiliates with store credit works and its benefits:

Gift Cards

Merchants can issue gift cards to affiliates by crediting the amount owed to them in that gift card. Gift cards have the benefit of being reusable and can be clubbed.

With GoAffPro, merchants can issue gift cards to affiliates outside of the app and then mark the payment as paid within the app.

For issuing gift cards, affiliates also need to have a customer account in the store. GoAffPro does provide an option for account syncing, where affiliates are registered as store customers automatically.

Store Discount Codes

Merchants can pay their affiliates through store discount codes, which affiliates can then use while making purchases in the store. Store discount codes can only be used once and cannot be clubbed with other offers.

GoAffPro provides merchants the option to pay affiliates with store discount coupons from within the app itself. They can also allow affiliates to self-redeem discount codes from their account dashboards.

Personal Coupon Codes

Personal coupon codes, while not a method of payment, it can be offered as an incentive for affiliates to join the program.

Affiliates do not earn any commission on the usage of personal coupon codes, which makes it convenient for merchants to issue them. GoAffPro provides merchants with the option to generate personal coupon codes for affiliates automatically.

Merchants can also choose to give the affiliate a discount code that can either provide a percentage/flat rate discount or a free shipping discount. There is also an option for setting up the personal coupon code style.

GoAffPro provides merchants with the option to pay affiliates with store credits. Merchants can choose to pay affiliates with gift cards or store discount codes, with an option for self-redemption of store discount codes. It also provides merchants the option to generate personal coupon codes for their purchases on the store. Check out the app: GoAffPro

  Hello Carolina
  
  Yes, you can do that, there are two types of store credits: Store discount coupons and Gift Cards.
  
  i. In the case of store discount coupons, you can set it up: https://docs.goaffpro.com/how-tos/pay-affiliates-with-store-discount-coupons
  
  And pay affiliates with store discount coupons from within the app.
  
  NOTE: you can enable the self redemption option and use conversion factor option to give additional discount on their redemption amount. Guide: https://docs.goaffpro.com/how-tos/pay-affiliates-with-store-discount-coupons/self-redemption-of-store-discount-coupons
  
  ii. For gift cards, you will have to issue the gift cards to affiliates outside the app: https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/products/gift-card-products/issue-gift-card
  
  And then mark it as paid within our app: https://docs.goaffpro.com/how-tos/mark-affiliate-payments-as-paid
  
  Additionally, to make this process easier, we do have an option, where affiliates can be automatically registered as store customers (making it easier to issue gift cards to them): https://docs.goaffpro.com/how-tos/register-affiliate-accounts-as-store-customers
  
  Thank You
