AffiliateWP Allow Own Referrals

Features & Specs

To use AffiliateWP smoothly, this “Allow Own Referrals” addon is a pro tip in itself. Out of the box, AffiliateWP won’t credit affiliates when they buy through their own link or coupon. That’s sensible for most promotions, but what if you want to reward affiliate-owner purchases—this plugin makes that possible.

This is the 100% original GPL licensed version, delivered via QuickGPL—meaning you get a completely legal, secure, and update-ready addon, with none of the security headaches that come with nulled files.

How do I enable my affiliates to earn on their own purchases?

Setup is as easy as it gets. Install the addon after AffiliateWP is already active, verify your QuickGPL GPL version, and activate. No settings panel to fuss with. From that moment on, the system tracks any purchase made with affiliate links or coupon codes—even if it’s the same person. Referrals show up just like any other, no surprises.

This works beautifully with WooCommerce, Easy Digital Downloads, MemberPress—any integration AffiliateWP supports. It’s reliable, simple, and cuts out administrative complexity. If you’re running special deal offers or promotional bundles, this setup might actually motivate those affiliate partners to join in buying too.

Does it mess up tracking or reports?

Not at all. It blends into the flow. Referrals appear in your usual AffiliateWP dashboard—under Referrals—with all the tracking data intact. You still benefit from clear reporting and one-click payouts. And the fact that this is a lightweight addon means you don’t have to worry about slowing your site down. On a caching-heavy or fast-loading WordPress site, everything keeps running smoothly.

In short, if you want affiliates to benefit from their own purchases—say, for testing offers, buying bundles, or special launches—then this GPL “Allow Own Referrals” addon via QuickGPL is your tool.
