Description
The Affiliate QR Codes add-on generates a QR code from each AffiliateWP partner’s affiliate URL, displaying the image inside the Affiliate Area so the affiliate can save, print, or share it. Useful for programs that combine online promotion with physical materials, flyers, stickers, and offline campaigns.
Key Features
- Automatic QR code generation: converts each partner’s affiliate URL into a scannable image, with no need for external tools.
- Display in the Affiliate Area: adds the QR code directly to the affiliate’s dashboard within AffiliateWP, alongside the other promotion resources.
- Save, print, and share: lets the affiliate download the image, send it for printing, or share it on social networks and messengers.
- Compatibility with Affiliate Portal: also integrates with the Affiliate Portal add-on, displaying the QR code inside the modern affiliate portal when that extension is active.
- Direct link to the custom URL: the QR code points to the affiliate’s exclusive tracking link, preserving commissions and sales attribution.
Benefits of Affiliate QR Codes
- Simplified offline promotion: lets affiliates take their link to flyers, cards, menus, packaging, and stickers.
- Fewer typing errors: removes the need for the end user to type long URLs with tracking parameters.
- Fast sharing on mobile: the image can be sent via WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram, and other visual channels.
- Autonomy for affiliates: each partner can access their own QR code without depending on the program admin to manually generate images.
Who Is It For?
- Affiliate programs that combine digital promotion with printed materials and in-person activities.
- AffiliateWP administrators who want to offer more link formats to their partners.
- Affiliates who work at events, trade shows, physical stores, restaurants, and field campaigns.
