Features & Specs
To get the most out of AffiliateWP, the REST API Extended addon is a real game-changer. The best part? You’re getting the 100% original GPL licensed version—safe, legal, update-ready, and without any cracked or nulled files.
If you’ve ever tried to automate affiliate data across different platforms, you’ve probably noticed the default API is a bit limited—it’s mostly read-only. That’s where this addon steps in. Once you install and activate it, head over to your AffiliateWP settings, flip a few switches, and suddenly your API can create, update, and delete affiliate data just the way you need.
Instead of only viewing reports from your dashboard, you can now actually make changes from external apps or other websites. Want to register affiliates automatically from a different site? Done. Need to sync payouts with a custom CRM or connect referrals to another system? Easy. The flexibility this addon brings is huge—it basically removes all barriers and gives you full control.
How to set REST API quickly?
-
Install AffiliateWP (Pro or Ultimate license required).
-
Go to AffiliateWP → Settings → REST API.
-
Enable the data types you want to manage (affiliates, referrals, payouts, visits, creatives).
From there, it works just like the standard WordPress REST API—so the learning curve is minimal.
This addon is especially handy for developers or anyone running multiple systems. Want to track visits from a non-WordPress site? You can. Need to keep affiliate accounts synced across servers? No problem. With full CRUD support (Create, Read, Update, Delete), you’re free to automate tasks that used to take hours.
And because it’s GPL licensed, you can safely use it on unlimited sites, keep it updated, and know your setup is 100% secure. It doesn’t slow your site down—it just works in the background while you focus on building smarter workflows.
If you enjoy automating processes and want more control over your affiliate program, this addon will feel like giving your dashboard a brand-new superpower.
