Shopify Affiliate & Partner Question

I am both a shopify partner and affiliate. I have been having my clients sign up via my affiliate link and I create their website using my shopify partner dashboard. When I transfer ownership of the website to my client they must sign up for a full shopify plan. My understanding is that when a client who clicks your affiliate link transfers from a trial plan to a full shopify plan, I would be eligible for the $150 payout that the shopify affiliate provides? Is this correct?

Hi, @EricSnead .

Rio here from the Shopify Community team. Once the client migrates to a paid plan from their trial, you would be eligible for the payout. You can read more about it here.

I’d also suggest checking out our affiliate strategy page. We cover everything you need to know about growing and making more affiliate referrals.

Hey Rio. In my case, this is exactly what happened. A few clients who clicked my link ,upgraded from the free trial to a paid plan however I never received commission for it.

Hi, @EricSnead .

In that case, I want to get you in touch with our partner support team to ensure that everything was good on the link-tracking side. Can you go through our partner support portal, and share the .myshopify.com URLs, as well as your partner information with our team so they can investigate?
