Adding and Editing Affiliates
Select 'CRM' and then 'Affiliates' from the navigation menu to get to the Affiliates Page.
From the Affiliates Page, you can see all of your existing affiliates and their details, including:
Aff Id (affId - used in the tracking string AND as the affId parameter in Import Lead and Import Order to link orders to the affiliate)
The affiliate's name
The names of the campaigns to which they are allowed to send traffic
Their campaign count
You can also search for affiliates by campaign
Click the green + button in the right corner of the Affiliates panel.
Give your affiliate a Source Title (their name in Konnektive) and click 'Create'.
Editing an Affiliate
1. From the Affiliates Page, click the blue edit button next to the affiliate you wish to edit.
2. From the Edit Affiliate Page, you can:
Edit the Source Title and Aff ID
Add and edit passed values
Add to or remove the affiliate from campaigns
See Sub Affs (publisher values) and disable them
Add affiliate pixels
By default, order pixels will fire immediately upon the initial order, and will not be fired on orders using prepaid cards. However, checking “Fire Pixels On QA Approval” will delay the pixel from being fired until the order is approved in Quality Assurance.
Change the source title (the affiliate's display name in your Konnektive instance) and/or the AffID (used to link orders to the affiliate) and click 'Update'. 'Last Update' at the top right of the panel will show the last user to update the source title or AffID and the date they were update.
Click the green + button at the top right to add a passed value (you can have up to 5 per affiliate) or the blue edit button beside the value that you wish to edit.
These are values that the affiliate will send with traffic via the tracking string attached to the end of your website URL.
The numbered values correspond to the sourceValue1-5 parameters for Import Lead and Import Order API calls.
You can change the value names and mark one as the publisher and one as the sub affiliate.
NOTE: You cannot use "SOURCEID" as a value!
Note: When setting up an affiliate, you need to clarify with your affiliate what values they plan to send. An affiliate will have values c1, c2, and c3 by default upon creation. After talking with your affiliate, you will configure the values and then give them the sample tracking string with a definition of each value (ex. Which is the publisher?), or they will tell you what values they plan to send, and you can configure the passed values based on that. The affiliate must send their affId for the traffic/order to be linked to them.
Select the Campaigns tab to see all the campaigns the affiliate is currently in.
Click the green + button, select the campaign, and click 'Add Campaign' to add the affiliate to a campaign.
Click the delete button next to the campaign to remove the affiliate from that campaign.
Note: Affiliate users will not be able to see any data from campaigns that they are not in.
The Sub Affs tab shows all publisher values received for this affiliate.
You can disable sub affiliates (publishers) if you think they are sending bad traffic. Orders attached to disabled publishers will not be processed and instead will be declined with the message "Affiliate 33312 blacklisted." with 33312 in this example being the publisher value.
Disabled sub affiliates can be re-enabled.
Pixels
The pixels tab shows all pixels set up for the affiliate.
Please view this article for directions on how to add a pixel.
