If you're a creator on Pensight with a Pro subscription, you have access to your own Creator Affiliate Program. This allows you to create and manage affiliate relationships to help promote your products. Here’s how it works:
Creators with a Pro subscription can create custom affiliate invite links from the Affiliate Program dashboard. Each link includes a unique code that can be shared with multiple affiliates. You can set a custom affiliate % earnings with each link. When an affiliate signs up using your invite link, they’ll start earning a commission on any of your products they help sell.
Each invite link directs the prospective affiliate to a dedicated page that includes:
All public products sold by the creator can be part of the affiliate program, and affiliates earn commissions across all of the creator’s products purchased in the 30 day window from when a client clicked on the affiliate link. You can adjust commissions for individual affiliates, but all products share the same commission for a particular affiliate.
You can assign different affiliate commission percentages to affiliates by creating different affiliate invite links or by manually updating the affiliate commission after they have joined your affiliate program.
When an affiliate receives your invite link, they’ll need to log in or sign up for a Creator account on Pensight. They can use the free Basic plan for it. Pensight account is necessary for them to be able to participate. Once they are logged in, they can simply click “Become an affiliate,” and they will be added to your affiliate program instantly, without requiring any additional approval.
Once affiliates have signed up, they’ll gain access to their own Affiliate Dashboard, where they can track their commissions and affiliate links. Here's what they’ll see:
The dashboard displays key information about all the affiliate programs the user is part of, including:
Pensight helps track affiliate commissions automatically. Affiliates earn commission for any products sold by the creator for 30 days after the client visits creator's store via affiliate's link.
Payouts are handled manually by the creator. Once an affiliate has commissions that are due, the creator should contact the affiliate directly to arrange a payment via Paypal, Venmo, CashApp, Gift Card, or a bank transfer . Pensight provides a chat function to facilitate communication between both parties.
Pensight initially creates commissions in an "On hold" status, to account for any potential refunds. After 30 days, commissions are automatically moved to “Due” if there has not been a refund or to “Needs review” if there has been a refund. The creator can also manually change the commission to “Needs review” or “Due”.
Creators are responsible for manually paying their affiliates once commissions are due. Affiliates can request payouts by contacting the creator via email or the chat feature. Once the creator pays the affiliate, they can manually mark the commission as “Paid” in their dashboard. Pensight is not responsible for any unpaid affiliate commissions.
If a product is refunded while the commission is on hold, at the end of the hold period the system will automatically mark the commission as "Needs review." The creator can then decide whether to still mark the commission as “Due” or mark it as “Rejected”.
Creators have access to an Dashboard, where they can manage their affiliates. They can view:
By clicking on an affiliate, the creator can access a detailed page showing:
Creators also have the ability to review and update commissions when necessary.
