Affiliate System Development

I have a SaaS platform for building e-commerce stores, and I want to develop a simple and scalable Affiliate Marketing System for individuals and companies to bring customers and earn commissions.

1. Affiliate Dashboard

A dedicated dashboard for affiliates that includes:

Sign up / Login
Unique referral link (e.g. domain.com/signup?ref=XXX)
Basic stats:
Total registered users
Paid subscriptions
Total commissions
Clean and simple UI
2. Referral Integration
Use the existing signup page (no new pages needed)
Implement referral tracking:
When a user signs up via a referral link → save the referral source
Automatically link the customer to the affiliate
When the user pays → attribute the sale to the affiliate
3. Tracking Flow
Affiliate generates link
Customer clicks → referral stored
Customer signs up & pays
System records the sale for the affiliate
Dashboard updates automatically
4. Commission System
Support percentage or fixed commission
Commission counted only after successful payment
Affiliates can view earnings in dashboard
Admin can control/edit commission settings
5. Technical Requirements
Frontend: React / Next.js
Backend: PHP Laravel
Database: MySQL
Auth: JWT or token-based
Deliverables
Full Affiliate System (Frontend + Backend)
Affiliate Dashboard
Tracking & Commission system
Clean, scalable code
Basic documentation
Notes
UI/UX design is ready
No need for separate landing pages per affiliate
Goal: simple, efficient, and scalable system
