Features & Specs
To use AffiliateWP effectively, this Force Pending Referrals Add-On gives you one simple but powerful tool: it makes sure every referral starts off marked as “pending”, so nothing slips by without your say-so. Set it and forget it—until you’re ready to approve.
Why does this matter? Without it, referrals go live immediately and that can get messy if you’re trying to catch fraud, monitor quality leads, or just review referrals before they count. With this addon, you put yourself back in the driver’s seat.
Is it legit? Absolutely—this is the 100% original GPL licensed version. That means it’s legal, update-ready, and free from cracked or nulled versions. You install it like any plugin, and once activated, every referral created through AffiliateWP gets bumped into “pending” status automatically. It’s that quiet.
How do you set all referrals to “pending”?
Setup is as easy as pie. Install the addon, activate it, and the moment it’s live, every new referral lands in that “pending” queue. From there, you can approve, reject, or investigate at your own pace—great if you’re looking to curb spam or keep a clean record of valid leads.
What does this do for your affiliate program?
In a way, it’s like giving yourself a filter. Especially if you combine it with tools like Fraud Prevention or Multi-Tier Commissions, this addon gives you control to vet and validate each referral. And yes, it works smoothly with big names like WooCommerce, Easy Digital Downloads, and MemberPress.
If you’re someone who wants to keep tight control over affiliate traffic and only reward quality referrals, this tool is a must-have. No guesswork, just clarity.
