AffiliateWP – Direct Link Tracking

This AffiliateWP add-on lets affiliates link directly to your site from their own site, without an affiliate link. Visitors click a plain link, and the affiliate still earns the commission.

Affiliates enter their domain or domains in their Affiliate Area. Once you approve a domain, a visit from that site stores the affiliate's ID in the browser's cookies, just like a normal affiliate link. If the visitor completes a purchase or conversion, a referral is created. Links to your site carry no affiliate parameters, so they are more SEO-friendly and visitors cannot strip tracking from the URL.

A Direct Links screen in the WordPress admin shows every domain. You can approve, reject, delete or deactivate domains, enable the feature globally or per affiliate, and cap how many domains each affiliate can enter. Email notifications go to you when a domain is submitted and to the affiliate when it is approved or rejected. A domain blacklist blocks domains from being added and stops visits from them being stored.
