Affiliate groups

Manage your affiliates more effectively by organizing them into groups. This lets you invite new affiliates or manually move existing ones to a specific group.

This way, you can offer tailored terms to particular affiliates. For instance, you might set up a "VIP" group for affiliates who have proven themselves and would like to reward them with better terms, such as a higher CPI or commission rate.

The default group

Once you add a new app to Shoffi, a Default affiliate group for that app is created automatically. The default group terms match the terms you added to the app. You can change them from the My Apps page by editing the app.

Adding and managing affiliate groups

Navigate to the Affiliates page and then to the Groups page in the side navbar.

You can add new groups for each app or edit existing ones. Each group will have its unique invite link so that you can invite affiliates directly to this group.

The group name is internal only and is not visible to affiliates. Affiliates see only the terms, such as commission and CPI.

Please Note!

• Changes to group terms will not affect previous referrals; only new referrals will be subjected to the new terms.

• Once the group affiliate terms are changed, all the affiliates will be notified of the new terms. They are not notified if you only change Disable manual referrals.

Group invite link

Each group has a unique invite link that you can use to invite affiliates directly to that group. You can read more in Invite affiliates.

If Auto Approval is disabled for the app, affiliates who join through a group invite link still need your approval on the Affiliates page before they can promote the app.

Moving an affiliate to a different group

To change an existing affiliate's group, go to the Affiliates page and click the affiliate name. In the Actions dropdown, choose Edit affiliate group.

These terms apply only to new transactions made by stores referred by the affiliate.

Please Note!

• Changes to the affiliate group will not affect previous referrals; only new referrals will be subjected to the new terms.

• Once the affiliate group is changed, the affiliate will be notified of the new terms. They are not notified if the new group only differs by Disable manual referrals.

The custom group badge

Regardless of group assignments, you can still set custom terms for each affiliate using the API or by changing them manually.

If an affiliate has individual terms, a Custom badge appears. This means the affiliate is not using group terms.
