# Set provisions for affiliates

Our affiliate marketing extension offers comprehensive options for setting provisions/commissions for your affiliates according to your needs. Below, we outline the most important options.

### Standard provision

In the configuration, you can simply activate the option "Also give provisions for products that are not in affiliate product groups". This allows all products to be provisioned with a standard rate - even those that do not belong to an affiliate product group. If this function is deactivated, only products from affiliate product groups will be provisioned. The value 10 would correspond to a standard commission of 10 % for each product. The standard rate is, of course, overwritten by the values from affiliate product groups, if they have been specified.

Further information on configuration can be found here:

{% endcontent-ref %}

### Affiliate product group

Affiliate product groups can be used to define exactly which products should receive which provision. Values specified here naturally override the standard commission. One possible use case would be to combine all products for a specific brand in an affiliate product group and assign them a common commission rate.

Practical: Affiliate product groups apply to all affiliates by default, but affiliates can also be assigned to created affiliate product groups. The assigned groups then only apply to the respective affiliates. This allows you to finely control which affiliate should receive which commission. Generally applicable affiliate product groups can also be overridden: If a product is in both a general affiliate product group and an assigned affiliate product group, the group in which it is located will naturally be prioritized for the assigned affiliate.

Products can be added to affiliate product groups manually, but it may be easier to add entire categories or dynamic product groups. To do this, click on the three dots to the right of a group in the affiliate product group overview and select "Add category" or "Add dynamic product group". Products and subcategories that are already associated with the group will not be added again.

### Individual provision multiplier

If provisions for certain affiliates are to be higher or lower than those defined in the standard or via affiliate product groups, this can be controlled individually for each affiliate using the individual commission multiplier.\
By default, the multiplier is 1, meaning 100 % commission is paid out. 1.1 is 110 % commission, while 0.9 is 90 % commission.\
You can find this option in the edit view of an affiliate detail page in the administration area under Marketing > Affiliate partners.

### Provision according to the number of orders

This can be used to define that every order promoted by an affiliate changes the provision rate for their future promoted orders. The rate can be changed either upwards or downwards.

You can also define how often the change may take place and thus set a limit. In addition, you can define the factor of increase or decrease per order. 0.1 represents a 10 % change per order, while 0.05 represents a 5 % change.

### Consider discounts in the provision calculation

In the extension configuration, you can set discounts to be taken into account in the provision calculation. This means that affiliates receive a correspondingly lower provision if, for example, a promotion code was redeemed or a discount was applied in the order. We recommend testing this feature in your online store beforehand, together with your promotions.

### Calculate provisions on the basis of net prices

If you want commissions to be calculated based on net prices instead of gross product prices, you can easily activate this configuration. By default, this configuration is disabled, so that the provision is always calculated based on the product price that a customer actually paid.
