# Social Media

If desired, buttons for sharing the respective affiliate link on social networks can be easily provided. The corresponding buttons are then displayed - if activated - both in the customer's personal affiliate area and on product detail pages.

The display is, of course, adapted to the respective theme of the store - for example, this is what it might look like in the Shopware standard theme:

#### Show WhatsApp button

Displays a button for sharing the affiliate link on WhatsApp. This uses the official WhatsApp API, which can be integrated at <https://api.whatsapp.com/send/> by transferring the desired parameters. If desired and configured, the "Standard text before the link" is displayed.

#### Show Telegram button

Displays a button for sharing the affiliate link on Telegram. This uses Telegram's official API, which offers the option to share content at the URL <https://t.me/share/url> with the desired parameters. If desired and configured, the "Standard text before the link" is displayed.

#### Use Web Share API

This configuration uses the official Web Share API to integrate a native share button. When clicked, the respective browser/operating system displays a full menu for sharing the affiliate link.

#### Standard text before the link

Here you can define a text that will be displayed before the URL in the respective social media application. It can be used, for example, to politely promote shopping in the online store and provide further information.
