Auto-Enroll Customers and Let Affiliates Recruit Sub-Affiliates
Besides assigning people by hand, you can grow a hierarchy automatically in two ways. Both require a campaign with at least two commission tiers.
Auto-Enroll Referred Customers
Turn buyers into network members after they purchase through an affiliate.
- Open the campaign and go to Additional Settings.
- Switch on Auto Enroll New Customers as Sub-Affiliates.
- Save the campaign.
When a customer completes a successful referred sale, they are placed beneath the referring affiliate. Leads and form submissions alone do not trigger enrollment; a completed sale does.
Let Affiliates Recruit Their Own Team
- Make sure the form you plan to use contains First Name, Last Name and Email. Without them the sign-up page shows an error.
- Open the campaign's Additional Settings.
- Enable the Sub-Affiliate Sign-Up Page and choose the form.
- Save.
The affiliate finds their recruitment URL in the Affiliate Portal and shares it. When a recruit completes the form, they become a sub-affiliate and appear in the hierarchy. Affiliates can also see their existing sub-affiliates in the portal.
Campaign Settings Versus Global Settings
- Campaign settings affect only the campaign you are editing.
- Global settings set the defaults for campaigns you create in the future.
- Changing a global setting does not update campaigns that already exist.
Troubleshooting
If the sign-up link gives an error, reopen the form and confirm all three required fields are present.
Good to know: Decide on your global defaults first so each new campaign starts with the right enrollment behavior.
