Sevol - Affiliate Program for WooCommerce

Sevol turns your WooCommerce store into an affiliate program, and the whole program is free. Not a trial, not a locked feature list: unlimited affiliates, no commission taken on your sales, no account to create anywhere. Give each affiliate a referral link and, if you want, a WooCommerce coupon of their own. When a customer buys through that link or that coupon, Sevol records the referral, calculates the commission and waits for the order to actually be paid before approving it. Everything runs inside your own WordPress. The free plugin makes no external requests at all. What you get

• Affiliate signup with your approval: nobody starts earning until you let them in. You can also register affiliates yourself.
• Optional terms of the program that the affiliate has to accept at signup.
• One referral link per affiliate, with a tracking cookie whose lifetime you choose.
• Native WooCommerce coupons tied to an affiliate, so the sale is credited even when the buyer never touched the link.
• Commission approved only when the order reaches a paid status, and reversed automatically if the order is refunded.
• Commission rules per product, per category and per individual affiliate, as a percentage or a fixed amount per unit.
• A front end affiliate dashboard through the [sevol_painel_afiliado] shortcode, with clicks, referrals, approved earnings and pending earnings.
• Withdrawal requests: the affiliate asks for a payout once they reach the minimum you set, and sends their payment details with it.
• Commission list with date range filter and CSV export.
• Notification e-mails for the affiliate and for the store owner.
• Test mode, so you can run a few orders and watch the whole flow before going live.
• A setup wizard on first activation, which also creates the affiliate dashboard page for you.

How the commission is decided Sevol looks for a rate in this order and stops at the first one it finds:

1. A rate set on the affiliate.
2. A rate set on the product.
3. A rate set on the product category.
4. The store default.

That way you can pay 5% across the store, 15% on one launch product and a special rate to one partner, without any of the rules fighting each other. Free and paid The affiliate program above is the free plugin, complete. There is no premium tier of it. Cashback is a separate product: Sevol Pro, a paid add-on sold at sevol.app. It gives store credit back to the customer so they come back to spend it. You never need it to run your affiliate program, and this plugin does not nag you to buy it. Interface language The plugin interface, e-mails and admin screens are in Brazilian Portuguese. The plugin was built for Brazilian WooCommerce stores, and things like Pix payout details reflect that. If you do not read Portuguese, keep this in mind before installing. Plugin de programa de afiliados para WooCommerce, em português do Brasil. O lojista cadastra afiliados, cada um recebe um link de indicação e um cupom próprio, e a comissão é calculada por produto, por categoria ou por afiliado. O afiliado acompanha cliques, vendas e ganhos num painel no front end e pede o saque por lá. Sem taxa por venda, sem limite de afiliados e sem enviar dado nenhum para fora da sua loja. Built to behave

• Compatible with HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage), declared through the official WooCommerce API.
• Does not touch the checkout. No extra field, no script injected into the page your customer pays on.
• Standard WooCommerce hooks only. No core file edits, no database hacks.
• No calls to external services. Nothing about your store, your customers or your affiliates leaves your server.
• An affiliate never earns a commission on their own purchase.
• Clean uninstall: removing the plugin removes its tables, options and metadata.

1.0.3

• On the Sevol admin screens, the default footer text is replaced with an invitation to review the plugin on WordPress.org.
• The readme is now in English, with a note making clear that the plugin interface is in Brazilian Portuguese. No other behavior changes.

1.0.2

• Security: CSV exports no longer let a cell be read as a spreadsheet formula. An affiliate picks their own display name and payment details, so those fields could carry a formula that ran when the store owner opened the file.
• Security: affiliate coupons are now capped per affiliate, and only an approved affiliate can create one. Before this, the form could be submitted over and over and a rejected affiliate could still create working discount coupons.
• Security: the referral cookie is now set with HttpOnly, SameSite=Lax and, on HTTPS stores, Secure.
• An affiliate whose signup was rejected no longer sees the affiliate dashboard.

1.0.1

• Hardened input handling: every value read from a request is now sanitized at the point it is read, including array fields.

1.0.0

• First public release.
