Who is a merchant?
A merchant is the creator/owner or manager of the affiliate program who configures and manages the system, sets up campaigns, defines commission rates, creates promo material for the affiliates, oversees the reports, and pays out the affiliates for the referred traffic.
Who is an affiliate?
An affiliate is a person or organization that promotes your company's products or services in exchange for a commission. Affiliates use various marketing strategies, such as sharing links, creating content, or running ads, to drive traffic and sales to your company's website. When a sale or a specific action (like creating an account) is done as a result of their efforts, the affiliate earns a commission in the form of a percentage of the transaction's price or a fixed amount.
Affiliates can be assigned to groups, entitled to different commission rates than others, based on various criteria. This can be managed using the Commission groups feature.
What is a campaign?
A campaign primarily serves to outline the form and amount in which affiliates are compensated for their promotional efforts. A campaign allows the merchant to define the commission rates for clicks, sales, or custom actions (signups, leads, etc.). Multiple campaigns allow defining different commission rates for different products.

What is a commission structure?
Commission structure is a system that defines how affiliates are compensated for their promotional efforts. It defines the rates at which affiliates earn commissions based on specific actions, such as clicks, sales, or custom actions (such as leads, signups, first time deposits, etc.). Commission groups allow merchants to assign different commission rates to various affiliates based on specific criteria.
What are multi-tier commissions?
Multi-tier commissions allow affiliates to get compensation not only for their own efforts, but also for the traffic referred by other affiliates they recruited - their sub-affiliates. This tiered system provides additional income opportunities as affiliates benefit from the performance of their recruited affiliates.
How Multi-Tier Commissions Work:
1st tier: The affiliate earns a commission from sales they directly referred.
2nd tier and higher: The parent affiliate also earns a commission from the sales generated by sub-affiliates they have brought into the program.
