Advanced Program Features

Advanced program features give you finer control over how payouts are earned. These options are found in the "Advanced program features" section when creating or editing a program.

Plan requirement: Advanced program features are available on Standard and Pro plans. If you are on the Lite plan, these options will not appear in your program configuration.

Max Referral Limit

Set a maximum number of referrals each affiliate can make for this program.

How It Works

  • Define a numeric limit (e.g. 50 referrals).

  • Once an affiliate reaches this limit, the cap is displayed on the affiliate signup page so potential affiliates are aware of the constraint.

  • This is currently an informational limit shown to affiliates during signup to set expectations about the program's scope.

Configuration

  1. Open the program in Admin > Programs.

  2. Scroll to Advanced program features.

  3. Enter the desired value in the Max Referral Limit field.

Availability

Available for both Sign Up and Transaction trigger programs.

Max Transaction Limit per Referral

Limit the number of eligible transactions that generate payouts for each referred user.

How It Works

  • Define a numeric limit (e.g. 3 transactions).

  • Only the first N confirmed transactions from each referred user will generate payouts.

  • Subsequent transactions from that referred user are marked as ineligible and no payout is created.

Example

If the max transaction limit is set to 3:

  1. Referred user's 1st confirmed transaction → payout generated.

  2. Referred user's 2nd confirmed transaction → payout generated.

  3. Referred user's 3rd confirmed transaction → payout generated.

  4. Referred user's 4th confirmed transaction → marked ineligible, no payout.

Configuration

  1. Open the program in Admin > Programs.

  2. Scroll to Advanced program features.

  3. Enter the desired value in the Max Transaction Limit field.

Availability

Transaction trigger only. This option is hidden when the Sign Up trigger is selected, since Sign Up programs do not track transactions.

Minimum Transaction Value (GMV)

Set a minimum GMV threshold that transactions must meet to be eligible for a payout.

How It Works

  • Define a minimum value in your marketplace currency's major units (e.g. £50).

  • When a transaction is confirmed, its GMV is compared against this threshold.

  • Transactions with a GMV below the minimum are marked as ineligible and no payout is generated.

Example

If the minimum transaction value is set to £50:

  • A transaction with £75 GMV → eligible, payout generated.

  • A transaction with £30 GMV → ineligible, no payout.

Configuration

  1. Open the program in Admin > Programs.

  2. Scroll to Advanced program features.

  3. Enter the desired value in the Minimum Transaction Value field.

The value is in your marketplace currency's major units (pounds, dollars, euros, etc.).

Availability

Transaction trigger only. This option is hidden when the Sign Up trigger is selected.

Trigger-Based Visibility

When configuring a program:

  • If the Sign Up trigger is selected, only Max Referral Limit is shown in the advanced features section.

  • If the Transaction trigger is selected, all three options are shown: Max Referral Limit, Max Transaction Limit per Referral, and Minimum Transaction Value.

This keeps the interface clean by only presenting options relevant to your selected trigger.
