track one particular action on my wbsite di i can compnsate affiliates

Hi there,

Yes this is possible to track a referral and grant a commission to the referring affiliate programmatically. All you need to do is track when this action is submitted and usually this is possible through a hook. If this action provides a hook then you can use it and add a referral using Affiliates API function
affiliates_suggest_referral( $post_id, $description, $data, $amount, $currency_id, $status, $type, $reference ).

Reference:

Kind regards,
George

Thanks for the feedback. Should I choose necessarily affiliates company or affiliates pro or the free version is enough to do this?

Hi there,

You’re welcome. That depends on the features you are looking for. Perhaps if you can share the details, I can give you a more suitable answer.
Also, keep in mind that the aforementioned function works only for the free version of the plugin.

Kind regards,
George

FYI extended info on the use along with links to reference implementations and pointing to advanced APIs available with the premium versions are in this article https://www.itthinx.com/2022/12/11/tracking-user-actions-with-affiliates/
