The all new affiliate program plugin Easy Affiliate is the most comprehensive, secure, and modern affiliate program plugin in the world! If you've enjoyed using Affiliate Royale, get ready to be blown away by Easy Affiliate!
If you're a current user of Affiliate Royale, you can switch to the all new product Easy Affiliate for free by following the instructions below. When you switch, all of your settings, affiliates, transactions, clicks, payments, and other data will be safe, and you’ll be able to access them from within Easy Affiliate.
What's Included In the Mix
- Affiliate Application Process. You can now require that affiliates apply through an application form, then you can approve, reject, or ignore the application
- PayPal 1-Click Payouts. Pay your affiliates via PayPal directly from within the WordPress Dashboard
- Pro Dashboard. A full page SaaS-like dashboard for your affiliates
- Security. Cookies are secured with hash validation to prevent tampering, and there's a Fraud Prevention add-on to detect and prevent fraudulent clicks and sales
- Multiple Cart Item Commissions. For WooCommerce and EDD purchases, Easy Affiliate will track commissions on each individual cart item rather than the order total, allowing you to set a custom commission level or zero commission on individual products
- Add-ons. The following add-ons can be installed at Easy Affiliate > Add-ons (requires an active license):
- Commission Levels. Additional support for adding and removing commission levels (this was in Affiliate Royale core – if you were using more than one commission level you will need this add-on to add or remove commission levels)
- Commission Rules. Allows you to set rules to enable different commission amounts on different products, affiliates, and more
- Fraud Prevention. Detect and prevent fraudulent clicks and sales
- Marketing. Affiliates will be added to these services (if installed) when they sign up:
- ActiveCampaign
- ConvertKit
- GetResponse

Important Note on Custom Code
If you have any custom PHP code that interacts with Affiliate Royale (e.g., using the PHP classes that begin with Wafp, such as WafpUser) the code will need to be changed or removed to avoid fatal errors. In Easy Affiliate, the classes are namespaced to begin with EasyAffiliate\. For example, WafpUser is now EasyAffiliate\Models\User.
If you have any custom styling for Affiliate Royale on the CSS classes that begin with Wafp, you may want to check if your custom styling is affected by the upgrade and fix it if necessary.
