How Product-based commission work

Program owners assign specific commission rates to individual products or product groups. An affiliate promoting a premium product earns a higher rate than one promoting a basic tier. Partnero supports product-level commission rules that override the program default when a referred purchase matches a specified product.

Why it matters for your program

Product-based commissions give program owners precise control over which products affiliates prioritise. They are especially useful for businesses launching new products, clearing inventory, or managing margin differences across a catalog. Affiliates are naturally drawn toward the products that earn them the most — product-level rates let you align that incentive with your business priorities.
