What Is Manual Sale Attribution?

Sometimes affiliate tracking doesn't work perfectly:

Customer didn't click the affiliate link
Sale happened offline (in-person, phone)
Link was shared incorrectly
Technical issues with tracking

Manual attribution lets you credit the affiliate anyway.

How It Works

Step 1: Access Affiliate Manager

Go to Marketing → Affiliate Manager

Step 2: Find the Customer

Search for the customer who made the purchase.

Step 3: View Transactions

See all transactions made by that customer.

Step 4: Create Manual Attribution

Select the transaction and attribute it to the appropriate affiliate.

Use Cases

Med Spas and Service Businesses

Customer A refers Customer B who books in person. Manually credit Customer A's affiliate account.

Offline Sales

Trade show or event leads that convert later — attribute to the affiliate who generated the lead.

Link Issues

Affiliate link didn't track properly but you know who referred the customer.

Phone Sales

Customer called instead of clicking the link — still credit the affiliate.

Why This Matters for Referral Programs

No risk to you — Only pay when a sale happens
Fair to affiliates — They get credit even if tracking fails
Better relationships — Affiliates trust your program
More flexibility — Handle edge cases properly
