Affilia – Affiliate Program

Affilia is a self-hosted WordPress affiliate plugin for creating and managing a WordPress affiliate program from your own site. It helps administrators enroll existing WordPress users as affiliates, provide unique referral links, attribute supported WooCommerce orders, manage commissions, and give affiliates a frontend dashboard.

As an affiliate plugin for WordPress, Affilia keeps core affiliate data in your WordPress installation. Affiliates can log in, access their dashboard overview, generate referral links, review their wallet balance, manage their profile, and download affiliate data as CSV. Administrators can manage affiliate status and profiles, configure confirmed commission options, review referral and commission records, and approve or reject commissions.

The Lite workflow supports WooCommerce classic checkout and Cart and Checkout Blocks. Referral attribution uses a first-party cookie, and approved commission updates are reflected in the affiliate wallet balance. Affilia also declares compatibility with WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS).

Why use Affilia Lite?

Affilia Lite is an affiliate management plugin for WordPress for site owners who want direct control over their core affiliate workflow. When comparing a WordPress affiliate plugin, consider how clearly it handles affiliate enrollment, links, attribution, commissions, dashboards, records, integrations, and data ownership.

With Affilia Lite, you can:

• Manage affiliates from the WordPress administration area.
• Give affiliates a frontend dashboard and unique referral-link tools.
• Attribute supported WooCommerce orders to affiliates.
• Configure global percentage or fixed commission amounts.
• Review referral and commission records before approving or rejecting commissions.
• Keep affiliate-program data under your control in WordPress.

How Affilia Lite works

1. An existing WordPress user logs in and enrolls as an affiliate.
2. The affiliate opens the frontend dashboard and generates a referral link.
3. A visitor follows the link, and Affilia stores the affiliate attribution in a first-party cookie.
4. When that visitor completes a supported WooCommerce order, Affilia creates referral and commission records.
5. An administrator reviews the commission and approves or rejects it.
6. Approved commission amounts are reflected in the affiliate wallet balance.
