Affiliates Overview

Affiliates are people that you pay for referring customers to your online store.

The general process for working with affiliates is:

1. Create an affiliate account which includes:

• A special HTML link to your store. This link can be to any page in your store, like your store’s home page, a specific product page, etc.
• A policy for how much you want to pay the affiliate for a referral. For example, you can pay affiliates a flat rate for each referral, or a percentage of any orders that stem from their referral.

2. Your affiliate adds the link that you created to one of their web pages; like a blog, a personal website or another online store. When a customer visits your affiliate’s webpage, and clicks the link, the Miva admin can track:

• That the customer reached your store from a specific affiliate.
• What the customer purchased from your store.

3. Create the payouts. The Miva admin calculates how much you owe each affiliate.

4. Send money to your affiliates using a method that is convenient for you.

5. Make the debt as paid.
