ShipTanStarter Docs

ShipTanStarter supports affiliate marketing through integration with Affonso and PromoteKit. These platforms help you track referrals and manage affiliate commissions.

Setup

Website Configuration

Update affiliate settings in src/config/website.ts:

src/config/website.ts

export const websiteConfig: WebsiteConfig = {
  // ...
  affiliates: {
    enable: true,
    provider: 'affonso', // or 'promotekit'
  },
};

Configure Affiliate Platform

Based on the affiliate platform you selected, configure the corresponding environment variable:

Go to Affonso and sign up

Create a new campaign

Get your affiliate ID

Add the affiliate ID to your .env file:

.env

VITE_AFFILIATE_AFFONSO_ID=your_affonso_id

Go to PromoteKit and sign up

Create a new referral program

Get your Key

Add the key to your .env file:

.env

VITE_AFFILIATE_PROMOTEKIT_ID=your_promotekit_key

If you are setting up your environment, you can now go back to the Environment Configuration and continue. The rest of this document can be read later.
