Description
The Zapier add-on connects AffiliateWP to the Zapier platform and triggers automated workflows when affiliates, referrals, visits, creatives, and payouts are created, updated, or deleted in your program. This bridge opens access to hundreds of apps such as Mailchimp, Google Sheets, Dropbox, QuickBooks, and Salesforce, allowing you to synchronize registrations, record commissions in spreadsheets, generate invoices, and trigger notifications without needing to write code or maintain custom integrations.
Key Features
- Affiliate triggers: triggers zaps when affiliates are created, updated, or deleted in AffiliateWP.

Who Is It For?
- Affiliate program managers who need to connect AffiliateWP to CRMs, accounting tools, and email marketing platforms.
