The Offerit Commissions Admin is located within the Commissions Admin, and allows you create special commissions for selected affiliates, landing pages, offers, etc. This can be accessed by going to the Commissions Admin and clicking the Commissions tab at the top of the page.
Contents
Special Affiliate Commissions
The Commissions Admin allows you to give affiliates a special commission for referrals made to a specified offer. To access the Commissions Admin, go to the Commissions Admin and click the "Commissions" tab at the top of the page. Here, you will find direct links to "Edit Commission Details," "View Offers in this Commission," "Edit Default Commissions," and "Setup Commission Changes."
To set up a special commission, click the "Setup Commission Changes" icon next to the commission you would like to add special commissions for. On the "Commission Change" page, click the tab on the left side of the screen to "Add Commission Change" and you will find options to specify an affiliate to affect, as well as landing page(s), offer(s), and country (or countries). Select what you would like to affect with your new commission change, then click Save Commission Change. You can add multiple commission changes for different affiliates if you so choose.
Configuring a New Commission Change
You can also choose to change the type of your Commission Change. You can choose to disable the commission, make it a temporary change, switch to a tiered commission, or make a recurring change. For more information on creating a temporary commission change, please see the Temporary Commissions section below.
On the next page, you can enter your desired commission changes. For more information on setting up commissions, see the Configuring Commission Settings of our Offerit Adding Commissions article.
Note: Make sure to note your payment changes. This way if you believe an affiliate is being paid disproportionately, you will be able to check your notes to see if you have set up a special commission.
Temporary Commissions
If you would like to set up a Temporary Commission Change for a commission, go to the Commissions Admin, click the Commissions tab, and click the "Setup Commission Changes" icon. On the next page, select "Temporary Change" from the Change Type drop-down menu. Once you have done this, you can configure the rest of the current page however you wish. Set the affiliate, landing page(s), option(s), offer(s), biller(s), and country(s) you would like to include in this change, and click Save Commission Change.
On the next page, you will be able to define when you want this temporary change to begin and end. Input when you want your change to start in the "Start Time" box, and when you want it to end in the "End Time" box. When you have defined that, you can fill in the details of your commission change and click Save. Offerit allows you to make multiple temporary commission changes, so if you would like to create another temporary commission change, just follow the above steps again.
Configuring Your Temporary Commission Change
Tiered Commissions
To add a Tiered Commission change, go to Commissions Admin and click the "Edit Commission Changes" icon next to the commission you want change. On the next page, choose "Tiered Commission" from the Change Type drop-down menu. Set any other limitations you want, then click Save Commission Change. On the next page, configure your desired default commission changes and click Save.
This will then bring up a separate set of commission changes, where you will be able to add another tier of commissions. This way, you will be able to give affiliates higher or lower commissions based on how many customers are referred by those affiliates.
Configuring Tiered Commissions
To configure this, use the "Start on Sale" box to determine when you want the default commission to change for affiliates. For example, you can set it to change commission amounts after they refer 100 customers by inputting "100" in the "Start on Sale" box and configuring the rest of the corresponding commission amounts.
You can also set a time period for your tiers to reset back to the default by using the drop-down menu under "Reset". The "Raise" drop-down menu determines when the affiliate's pay raise will go into effect after they hit the amount of sales you previously specified; you will be able to choose between "Next Day," "Next Period," "Next Sale," and "Entire Period." When you are done configuring your new Commission Tier, click Add to add your new payment change. You can add as many new Commission Tiers as you like by repeating the steps detailed above.
Editing Commission Changes
Editing a commission change will not immediately affect an affiliate's payout for the commission to which you are applying the change. Offerit will simply set the original commission change to end, while creating a new commission change with the edited details in its place. For every edit that has been made to a commission, a new commission change will be created in its place with updated details. This allows Offerit to keep an accurate historical track of commission change records.
Precedence
You can control the precedence of your commission changes applied to an affiliate through the Commissions Admin. To change the order of your commission changes, click the Commissions tab and click the "Edit Existing Commission Changes" icon next to the commission change you would like to edit.
On the next page, you can use the Up and Down arrows to change the order of your commission changes. The commission change with the highest precedence (first in the list of your changes) will always be the commission change that is applied to your affiliate's commission-- this allows you to offer special commissions to certain affiliates by giving a special commission change higher precedence than the standard commission change(s).
