Affilibee for WooCommerce

Requirements

• WordPress: 6.7 or later
• WooCommerce: 7.0 or later
• PHP: 7.4 or later

Quick Start

1. Install the plugin
   • In WordPress, go to Plugins → Add New.
   • Search for "Affilibee for WooCommerce".
   • Click Install Now, then Activate.
   • Alternatively, you can download from WordPress.org and upload manually.
2. Create a Live API Token in Affilibee
   • Go to Integrations → Affilibee API in Affilibee.
   • Create a new Live API token and copy it.
3. Add the Live token in plugin settings
   • In WordPress, go to WooCommerce → Settings → Affilibee.
   • Paste your Live API token into the Live API Token field.
   • Save your settings.
4. Optional: Add a Testing API Token
   • Create a Testing API token in Affilibee.
   • Paste it into the Testing API Token field in your plugin settings.
   • Save your settings.
5. Start tracking
   Affiliates are credited for orders based on the affiliate slug in your store’s URLs. We strongly recommend placing a test order before going live, see below.

Verify your setup (recommended)

1. Enable Test Mode
   In WordPress, go to WooCommerce → Settings → Affilibee and check Enable Test Mode. Save. Test Mode uses the testing API endpoint so your test orders won’t affect live reports.
2. Use the test tracking link
   

   Visit your WooCommerce store with the affiliate parameter added to the URL, for example:
   https://your-website.com?affiliate=test

   This parameter (?affiliate=test) simulates a click from an affiliate with the slug “test”.

3. Place a test order
   • Log out of WordPress admin or use a private/incognito window.
   • Visit your store using the link above.
   • Add any product and complete checkout.
4. Check the order in WooCommerce
   Go to WooCommerce → Orders, open the test order, and confirm the affiliate slug (test) appears in the order details.
   
5. Verify in Affilibee
   Go to Integrations → Affilibee API → Request Log . Make sure your request shows as successful. Expand the entry to review the payload (order rows, amounts, and customer data).

How it works

• Cookie placement
  When a shopper visits with an affiliate parameter in the URL, the plugin sets a 30-day first-party cookie. Credit follows a last-touch model (the most recent affiliate link before purchase gets credit).
• Affiliate slug on order
  On order creation, the affiliate slug is stored in the order meta. You can verify it on the WooCommerce order detail page.
• Order submission
  When an order is marked Completed, the plugin submits the order to the Affilibee API so the affiliate is credited.
• Segment slugs
  Segment slugs aren’t supported with WooCommerce. Use SKUs in Affilibee to apply different commissions per product.
• API request logs
  All requests to the Affilibee API are logged. Use them to troubleshoot order tracking issues. If a request fails, review the error message. Need help? Contact support.
• Disclaimer
  Custom themes or third-party plugins can affect functionality. If you hit compatibility issues, contact support or your developer.
