Starting an affiliate program with a difficult setup

Shopify Apps
1

Hi everyone,

we have a quite unique setup and are struggling with setting up an affiliate program.

Our setup:

  • Our site: www.loewi.com

  • Website is on wordpress

  • People either buy a stand-alone product or a subscription (via bold subscriptions) via buy-buttons, which directly lead to the checkout

  • Bold subscriptions doesn’t allow any UTM parameters within their URL

  • our customer never enter the shop.loewi.com domain

Does anyone have an idea of how we could set up a working affiliate program, e.g. are there any apps out there that can handle our setup?

Thanks for your help,

Philipp

You can try the Affiliate Marketing app from Secomapp, which is extremely easy to set up, it also supports integrating with Bold Subscription and provide an accurate tracking process. The tracking options could be via the affiliate link, coupon code, customer email or SKU.

The app also works with Shopify buy button, you just need to add the third-party tracking code on the WordPress website and the app will track the click.

Hello @loewi,

Even though this reply may be a bit late, I’d like to share an alternative you may find useful.

You can consider EmbedUp ‑ Affiliate Buy Button, an affiliate-friendly solution for selling Shopify products directly on WordPress and other external sites. It lets you embed customizable product or collection components while keeping everything synced with Shopify in real time and allowing customers to browse and checkout seamlessly on the page.

Key features include:

  • Embed Shopify products or collections (up to 50 components)
  • Support for up to 10 product variants per product
  • Unlimited products when embedding collections
  • UTM and campaign tracking
  • Order tracking
  • Affiliate management (create affiliates, assign components, track performance)
  • Analytics for campaign and visitor-to-conversion performance

The app is fully integrated with Shopify and available on the Shopify App Store. If this aligns with your setup, their 24/7 support team can help you evaluate it further.

Hope this helps.
