What is affiliate coupon code tracking?

Affiliate coupon code tracking is a method of attributing sales to affiliates using unique promo codes instead of referral links or browser cookies.

Each affiliate gets their own code. When a customer enters that code at checkout, the sale is automatically credited to the correct affiliate and commission is calculated in real time. No link click needed. Just the promo code.

Why do you need coupon tracking

Affiliates promote in places where links aren't practical:

1
Podcasts — listeners can’t click
2
YouTube videos — descriptions get skipped
3
TikTok and Instagram — no clickable in-video links
4
Live events and webinars
5
Word of mouth

Promo codes capture what links miss

When affiliates share a memorable code, customers remember it and enter it at checkout. You see exactly who drove the sale.

Common questions about coupon code tracking

Can I use both promo codes and referral links?

Yes. Many businesses use referral links for blog and website affiliates, and promo codes for podcast and video affiliates. Partnero tracks both.

How do affiliates get their codes?

Two options:

  1. Auto-generation: Enable this feature to automatically assign a unique code to every affiliate based on your naming rules.
  2. Manual assignment: Create specific codes and assign them to individual affiliates. Great for VIP partners or custom campaigns.

You can use both methods together.

Can I give one affiliate multiple codes?

Yes. Assign as many codes as you need to a single affiliate. Useful for running different campaigns or testing discount amounts.

What if I already have coupons in Stripe or Shopify?

Partnero imports your existing coupons when you connect. You don't need to recreate anything. Then assign those imported coupons to specific affiliates.

Do I need a developer to set this up?

No. Connecting Stripe, Paddle, Shopify, or WooCommerce takes a few clicks. Most users finish setup in under 10 minutes.

What happens when someone refunds?

Partnero automatically adjusts the affiliate's commission. No manual work needed.

Can affiliates create their own codes?

You control code creation. Auto-generate codes, manually create and assign them, or do both, but affiliates can't create codes themselves.

Can I assign different discount amounts to different affiliates?

Yes. When you manually assign codes, each affiliate can have a different discount. Give top performers better codes, or test which discount amount converts best.
