Common questions
How do affiliate commissions get paid?
Commissions accrue in the ledger as referred sales come in. When you pay partners, you mark those commissions paid and can export a PayPal mass-payment file to send the money.
Does it work with Shopify?
Yes. Shopify stores install the AffiliateLauncher app from the Shopify App Store and subscribe in Shopify.
Can I use it without Shopify?
Yes. Create a company on this site and your developer can send orders through the API or MCP tools, which come with paid plans (Plus or higher).
What do affiliates see?
Their attributed sales, summaries, and ledger balances, so they know what was earned and what is still owed.
Does it help with 1099s?
It exports 1099-ready payee totals for your records. Filing stays with you or your accountant.
