Affiliate Program
Track partner referrals and commission on ticket sales
Affiliates are partners who promote your event with a unique tracking link. When a sale uses their link, cowtic records clicks and conversions and calculates their commission.
Open Affiliates
- Go to Events and open your event
- Select the Affiliates tab
Create an affiliate
- Click Create affiliate.
- Fill in the form — name, email, commission type and value, and active status.
- Save — cowtic generates a tracking code and shows the full link in the Affiliates table.
Tracking link format
After saving, copy the link from the Affiliates table. It follows this pattern:
Format: cowtic.com/e/your-event-slug?ref=AFFILIATE_CODE
Share this link with the affiliate. Clicks and conversions are attributed when customers complete checkout with the ref parameter.
Performance metrics
The Affiliates table shows per partner:
- Clicks — link visits tracked
- Conversions — completed orders with this affiliate code
- Earned — commission total in the event currency
Edit and delete
Use the row actions to edit affiliate details or delete an affiliate. Deleting removes future tracking for that code.
