About
Affiliates Manager plugin can help you manage an affiliate marketing program to drive more traffic and more sales to your site.
Security History
What It Does
Affiliates Manager sets up an affiliate marketing program on your WordPress or WooCommerce site, letting you register partners, generate tracking links, and record referrals that convert into commissions. It captures referral data through cookies, handles payout tracking, and exposes affiliate stats in both admin and partner dashboards. The plugin ties directly into WooCommerce order flow, so commissions can be calculated automatically when referred orders complete.
Who It's For
This plugin fits small to mid-sized WooCommerce store owners who want to launch their own in-house referral program without paying a third-party SaaS fee. It suits sites with a defined product catalog, a modest traffic baseline, and an operator comfortable managing affiliate approvals, commission rules, and payouts manually or via export.
Who Should Skip It
If you need advanced fraud detection, multi-tier commission structures, real-time affiliate tracking across high traffic, or recurring subscription commission handling, you should look at SaaS platforms like PartnerStack or Rewardful instead. Sites without WooCommerce integration needs and a low install base should also question whether this lighter-weight plugin will carry their program at scale.
The Bottom Line
Affiliates Manager is a competent, well-maintained option if you run a WooCommerce store and want a self-hosted affiliate program without a subscription fee. Its thin user community and small support footprint mean troubleshooting can be slower than with larger ecosystems, and high-volume or feature-heavy programs should look elsewhere.
