Sharing an external Link with the Affiliate

When you are ready to let your affiliates know that there is an external link they can share and receive affiliate credit on it is easy to pop their link in an email broadcast. 

  1. Add the External link to your affiliate program by following the steps above

  2. Go back to your Affiliates program screen and select the affiliate program

  3. Select the Affiliates tab  and select the affiliate name 

  4. You will be directed to the Affiliate information screen

  5. Scroll down to the Affiliate links for this affiliate box 

  6. Simplero will mask it and you will copy that masked link by clicking the Link icon next to the page name

  7. Simply paste this link in your Broadcast, remove the number and affiliate name and then add liquid_code_ref to the end of it 

For example:

This is the link it tells you:
