Stripe Product Links Not Tracking Metadata for Affiliates
Currently, the only way for the affiliate program that exists according to level 2 engineers is the internal cart and 1/2 step checkout process. So even though you are integrated with Stripe, and choose to use payment links for connected Stripe account in GHL, connected to the products in GHL, all created within the sub-account, when the affiliate link is used on the site, they click buy the product, go to the product payment link to checkout, at that moment, no metadata is sent into the checkout session payload, which if able to send through the URL or reference the affiliate in the payload if applicable even that would then allow us to capture it post purchase for your affiliate program to track the sale. Currently no data comes through, so the affiliate program fails to record or cookie track, and the system breaks essentially from its core purpose. I understand I can set up a cart and keep it all internally hosted and it work, but for many of us that is not a viable flow of checkout, such as SaaS commonly that runs through Stripe payment links for dynamic URL redirects based on the product purchased for automated customized intake experiences... This would be about a 10-minute update and provide immense value to your affiliate program tracking actually functioning, as currently for us, we have to have manual form submissions for deal claiming which is not adequate at the rate we are scaling up. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE CORRECT THIS ISSUE BY HAVING STRIPE PAYMENT PRODUCT LINKS TRACK AFFILIATE PROGRAM COMMISSIONS. Subject: Re: Affiliate Manager Payout - [#GHL-4251205] Hi Rob, Thank you for your time today, I checked your situation with our SaaS specialists and with some of my colleagues, we agreed that your current setup is not going to work for the Affiliate Manager and I recorded this Loom video explaining what options you have to fix the commission tracking issue: Ticket 4251205 MY PROPOSED SOLUTION: Adding in the payload the URL of affiliate (maybe from cookie) at launch of the checkout integration after button click and then post-purchase send the affiliate URL that is already or should be passed in the session metadata or cookie data, then system can automatically (or automation if need-be) to check against the campaign assigned affiliates, and then continue with the auto-assign based on tier to the affiliate within the global rules for commissions (per tier if applicable to program).
