Step 1: Technical Setup for Your Affiliate Program
Before you can start earning, you need to set up the technical components of your B2B SaaS affiliate program.
- Install the Tracking Script: This is essential for monitoring your affiliate traffic.
- Install the Conversion Snippet: Capture conversions and associate them with your affiliates accurately.
- Set Up Payment Processor Connection: Integrate a reliable payment processor (like Stripe or Paddle) to manage affiliate payouts.
Step 2: Legal Considerations
To protect your business and your affiliates, ensure the following legal steps are completed:
- Add Reditus to Your Cookie Notice: Inform users about cookie usage for tracking.
- Add Reditus as a Subprocessor: Include Reditus in your legal documentation regarding data processing.
- Create a Partner Agreement: Having clear affiliate terms is crucial. Email us for a template if you want to use our template.
- Link Your Partner Agreement in Settings: Make it accessible for your affiliates to review.
Tip: Establishing affiliate terms at the start will help keep your program on track and legally compliant.
Step 3: Design Your Partner Program
To make your affiliate program attractive and effective, consider these key elements:
- Define Your Commission Percentage: Set a competitive commission that motivates your affiliates.
- Determine Commission Duration: Specify how long affiliates will earn commissions (in months).
- Create Multiple Partner Tiers: Consider offering tiered commissions based on performance.
- Promote Your Partner Program on Your Site: Make it easy for potential affiliates to find and join your program.
- Invite Current Partners / users: Engage your existing network to help kickstart your program.
Example: If your average subscription is $100/month, a 10% commission for 24 months totals $240 for the affiliate. However, increasing that to 30% yields $720. Remember, affiliates are driven by earning potential!
