Affiliate programs are the ideal way to make your website more profitable. Your website visitors can register as your affiliate online, obtain the linking code (URL that redirects to your online store) to be placed to their websites and start generating sales for you. In this case, a new Marketing Campaign is added automatically, and you can count hits and orders placed by your affiliates websites visitors. Your affiliate program participants will also automatically get the customer accounts with access to the Parallels Business Automation - Standard Control Panel.
The Parallels Business Automation - Standard Messenger is pre-configured to send the notification about new marketing campaign both to your account administrator e-mail and to your affiliates (with the affiliate linking code and URL to the Parallels Business Automation - Standard Control Panel).
The PHP store spipped with Parallels Business Automation - Standard provides the pre-defined website page template for the automated affiliates sign-up page. By default, this page is hidden. To show it at your website, you need to edit the site header file.
