Overview

The standard AffiliateWP REST API gives read-only access. That works for reporting, but it leaves a gap when you want another system to change affiliate data. This extension fills it with full create, read, update and delete operations for affiliates, creatives, referrals, visits and payouts, so those records can be handled by code rather than by hand in the dashboard.

Because the API works with outside systems, including platforms that do not run on WordPress, it fits setups where affiliate data lives in more than one place. You can sync accounts across databases, record referrals from an external store, or update affiliates when a third-party app processes an order. Developers also get documentation and examples for building their own tools.

Features

  • Create, update and delete: Manage affiliates, creatives, referrals, visits and payouts through the API, so you can automate routine changes to your affiliate program and tailor how it runs.
  • External system integration: Track visits and referrals from any website or ecommerce platform, including sites that are not built on WordPress.
  • Cross-database synchronization: Keep affiliate data consistent across several WordPress installations or external databases, so records match wherever they are stored.
  • Automatic account updates: When affiliate details change in an external application, the same changes can be sent to AffiliateWP so the stored information stays current.
  • Referrals from external orders: Generate referral records automatically when an order is processed through an external payment gateway, which keeps referral tracking tied to real orders.
  • Custom affiliate areas: Run affiliate dashboards and management tools hosted outside WordPress, with full freedom over their design and functionality.
  • Developer documentation: Guides and examples help developers build tailored applications that use the extended API features.
  • Builds on AffiliateWP core API: The extension adds to the existing AffiliateWP REST API, giving you more control while keeping the familiar AffiliateWP setup.
