I'm looking for the ability to have a URL that will direct traffic to the site. This URL will be based on the affiliate id. If someone makes a purchase, I can easily see that the affiliate sent them to the site. So far it appears as though the module does support this functionality but I'm not 100%. It has URLs and has affiliate ids and even has reports for clicks, etc, but so far I haven't seen any mention of tracking a sale based on the URL or affiliate.

Can this module do this? A la Amazon affiliate program? Or is this just a traffic tool?

thanks.

I am using Commerce Affiliate for which this module is a requirement. As far as I see I can refer a site using site.com/ref/{user_id}/{campaign_id}, and this shows in Affiliates Overview window. But the issue is admin has no option to find out which customer the referral actually belongs to (or is there any, I don't know).

I am also looking into the code to see more of it. IF bojanz could reply, it would have been a help.

You can use it that way with some extra configuration, look here http://drupal.org/node/1869620#comment-7011678 and here http://drupal.org/node/1279148

As reference, the Commerce Affiliate helper module is what you need. That will look for an affiliate ID on the persons browser (cookie) and will add that to the Commerce Affiliate database database.

What is still being worked on is a UI for all the data. The data is being recorded and all the data needed to create an "Amazon" like affiliate program is there.
