Ed (a WildKatanaDesign Blog reader) has suggested the need for an affiliate system that is compatible with Paypal Subscriptions. I agree that this feature is needed, and am making plans to build and release it soon. Here are some features of the system that come to mind:
Feature Ideas:
- Users will have a unique referral link, something like http://www.example.com/anyurl?a=uid
- Affiliates can view their referrals in a tree-view page
- Affiliates can receive commissions (configurable by admin) up to 5 levels deep
- Payout to be made with the Paypal Masspay API or individually
- Charts to show best-selling affiliates and total paid to affiliates
- Cookies used to help ensure affiliates are credited with referrals
Any other ideas? Feel free to sign up and post your ideas here.
Is there any way you could also tie in a one off payment for a downloadable ebook via paypal as well? This is the next project on the list for me. Thanks Leighton!
