This feature allows customers to fill out a signup form and become affiliates for an event. Once they have signed up to be an affiliate, you can track sales and commission that needs to be paid. Sales they generate can be reported and tracked and commission rates can be established for each ticket sold.

Once a user has created an affiliate account for themselves, they can use social share tools from their dashboard page. Sending invites from the affiliate dashboard will only send an invitation to the event, it does not provide any discounts.  Below are instructions on how to turn on affiliate signups.
