The Commission Structure section allows you to set and manage how commissions are calculated for your affiliate program. This is where you define your default (standard) commission rate and any special commission rates for specific products, categories, or actions.


1. Program Commission Settings

  • Enable lifetime/recurring commissions:
    When switched ON, all future conversions from a customer will be attributed to the original affiliate who referred them, regardless of when the purchase happens. This is useful for subscriptions, returning customers, or long-term client relationships. If switched OFF, commissions are only applied for the specific purchase or session.

  • Save:
    Click the Save button to apply any changes.


2. Standard Commission

The Standard commission is the default rate applied to all products or services unless an extra commission rule overrides it.


3. Extra Commissions

Extra commissions let you create special commission rates for:

  • Specific products

  • Product categories.

  • Actions like newsletter sign-ups.

These special rates override the standard commission only for the matching products or actions.
