Description

The Affiliates creates an affiliate program managed directly through the website dashboard, generating trackable referral links for each registered partner and automatically calculating commissions on sales attributed to each link. It targets users who maintain digital products, courses, or subscription plans and want to expand reach by paying commission for concrete results, without relying on external platforms like ShareASale or Refersion.

Who is Affiliates for?

  • Those running niche e-commerce stores who prefer partner referrals over recurring paid traffic spend.

How to Download Affiliates

The Affiliates is available for download here at Ultrapack. After receiving the .zip file, install it in Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, select the file and activate. Once activated, the affiliate program management menu appears in the WordPress side panel, ready for commission rule configuration and the registration of the first partners.

Affiliate marketing remains one of the best cost-per-acquisition channels when well executed, and keeping the program on the site avoids the cut taken by intermediary platforms and preserves the partner base under your control. The Affiliates consolidates registration, link tracking, commission calculation, and reporting in the same dashboard where the rest of the site is already managed, eliminating context switching between tools.
