💯 Setting an Affiliate's Commission Rate to 0% on a Product

Explains that setting a product's Affiliate Commission Rate to exactly 0% stops affiliate commission across all product types and automatically drops running subscriptions to the base fee at renewal.

🎉 Full control over affiliate commissions

Want to run an affiliate program but keep commission off certain products? You've got it! Setting a product's Affiliate Commission Rate to exactly 0% is all it takes, and it works the same way everywhere. 🙌

✨ What setting the rate to 0% does

When you set a product's Affiliate Commission Rate to exactly 0%, affiliates earn no commission on that product, simple as that! This works the same way across every product type that supports affiliates, including memberships, 1:1 coaching, courses, communities, digital products, link products, webinars, coaching calls and custom/DM products. No exceptions, no surprises! 🎯

🛠️ How to set it

  1. Open the product you want to update.

  2. Find the Affiliate Commission Rate field for that product.

  3. Enter 0 as the value, then save your changes. That's it, you're done! 🚀

⚠️ Why you must actually enter 0

Here's the important bit: the Affiliate Commission Rate only takes effect as 0% when you've actually typed 0 into the field. Leaving the field blank or unset is NOT the same thing, and it won't stop affiliate commission the way setting it to 0 does. So if your goal is zero commission on a product, double-check that the field clearly shows 0, not an empty box! ✅

🔄 What happens to existing affiliate subscriptions

Already have an affiliate earning a subscription-based commission on a product? No worries! If you set that product's rate to 0% afterward, the commission won't change mid-cycle, it automatically drops to your base affiliate fee right at the subscription's next renewal. 🙌

Best part? You don't need to touch anything in Stripe by hand. WithMe handles the whole transition for you automatically when renewal time rolls around. 🎁

❓ Quick FAQ

Does 0% commission affect my earnings or fees? Nope! WithMe takes 0% commission on every sale you make, on any plan, this is completely separate from what you choose to pay affiliates. Stripe's standard payment-processing fee still applies to transactions, but that goes to Stripe, not WithMe. 💸
