How To Generate Affiliate Links For Your Products

Generated affiliate links are unique URLs created for each affiliate promoting your digital product. These links are automatically generated when a customer becomes an affiliate after purchasing your product. Each link contains a special code that allows Pillar to track and attribute sales to the correct affiliate.

How affiliate links work on Pillar:

1. As the original creator, you can generate as many unique affiliate links as you like for your digital product, each with its commission percentage (or the same for all)
2. Share each link with a single person to make them your affiliate
3. Your affiliates will need to sign up for Pillar to share your affiliate links
4. The affiliate adds the link to their Pillar store using the “Pillar Affiliate Link” product menu option
5. Visitors who click on the affiliate’s link are taken to the original creator’s product, but the sales are tracked and attributed to the affiliate
6. You make money on the sale and the affiliate receives their commission

To generate Affiliate Links for a product:

• Open the Advanced tab of your product
• Use the Generate button to create as many links as you like
• Set commissions (these can be the same or different for each link)
• Copy and share your links with individual affiliates
• Publish the product to save your links

If you received an affiliate link from a creator, you will need to “claim” the link by adding it to your Pillar store

To claim a link and become an Affiliate:

1. If you don’t already have a Pillar account, you can make one on https://get.pillar.io
2. Once you’ve logged in, go to My Store and click Add Product

3. In the product menu, choose “Pillar Affiliate Link”

4. Add the link and write a title & description

5. Publish the product and you’re all set!

Use the “Affiliate” tab on the sidebar to see all your links and earnings
