Order Tracking Flow

Attribution Methods

Orders are attributed via:
  1. Referral Cookie - Customer clicked referral link before ordering
  2. Coupon Code - Customer used partner’s coupon at checkout
  3. Customer Match - Existing customer linked to partner

Coupon Integration

Creating Partner Coupons

Partners can have unique coupon codes:
  1. Create coupon in WooCommerce
  2. Link coupon to partner in Partnero
  3. When used, order is attributed to partner

Automatic Coupon Sync

  1. Go to WooCommerce → Settings → Partnero → Coupons
  2. Enable Auto-create partner coupons
  3. Configure discount amount and type

Subscription Support

If using WooCommerce Subscriptions:

Initial Purchase

First subscription payment creates transaction with commission.

Renewals

Each renewal payment:
  • Creates new transaction
  • Calculates commission (if recurring enabled)
  • Updates partner’s balance

Subscription Management

Handled events:
  • woocommerce_subscription_renewal_payment_complete
  • woocommerce_subscription_status_changed

Tracking Script

The plugin automatically adds tracking to your store:
<!-- Added automatically by plugin (PartneroJS) -->
<script>
  (function(p,t,n,e,r,o){...})(window, document, 'script', 'https://app.partnero.com/js/universal.js', 'po');
  po('settings', 'assets_host', 'https://assets.partnero.com');
  po('program', 'YOUR_PROGRAM_ID', 'load');
</script>

Manual Installation

If not using the plugin, add tracking manually:

Add to Theme

Add to your theme’s header.php or via a custom plugin:
add_action('wp_head', function() {
    ?>
    <!-- PartneroJS -->
    <script>
      (function(p,t,n,e,r,o){ p['__partnerObject']=r;function f(){
      var c={ a:arguments,q:[]};var r=this.push(c);return "number"!=typeof r?r:f.bind(c.q);}
      f.q=f.q||[];p[r]=p[r]||f.bind(f.q);p[r].q=p[r].q||f.q;o=t.createElement(n);
      var _=t.getElementsByTagName(n)[0];o.async=1;o.src=e+'?v'+(~~(new Date().getTime()/1e6));
      _.parentNode.insertBefore(o,_);})(window, document, 'script', 'https://app.partnero.com/js/universal.js', 'po');
      po('settings', 'assets_host', 'https://assets.partnero.com');
      po('program', '<?php echo PARTNERO_PROGRAM_ID; ?>', 'load');
    </script>
    <!-- End PartneroJS -->
    <?php
});
