We purely focus on B2B SaaS companies which want to set up an affiliate program. If you are looking to set up an affiliate program for your course, e-commerce or any other kind of business; we will not be the right fit for you.

3. Create a SaaS Affiliate Program

Go through the onboarding steps, where you fill out your company details. The company name you enter, will be used to created your landing page & affiliate sign up page on Reditus. Once you completed installation, you will have your own landing page and sign up page. Which would look like this;
https://app.getreditus.com/marketplace/companyname
https://app.getreditus.com/affiliate/sign_up/companyname

Your website URL = your SaaS homepage. Easiest is to copy it from the URL bar in our app, as we need to have it exactly as it is.

Determine what percentage of commission you would like to give + how long. We need you to create at least one tier, you are able to change this later.

You are able to change your affiliate tier later.

Technical installation

4. Add the tracking script to your website

For us to track referrals you will need to add a tracking script to your website (including the sign-up page). Use the button "copy to clipboard" to copy the tracking script. You can grab it here: https://app.getreditus.com/saas/settings/installation

Where do you need to install the tracking script:
On your main domain (ALL PAGES)
On the page the sign up happens (where you trigger the sign up snippet, for example; app.getreditus.com/saas/sign_up)

Important notes regarding the tracking script.
We can track sub domain
It needs to be active on all pages + where registrations happen
Do not place it behind the cookie wall.

See these articles for more information:

Why do you not need cookie consent

5. Add the snippet into your signup form & book a demo

We want to know when someone leaves their details via an affiliate. Most common actions are; sign ups & book a demo's.

The Reditus sign up snippet:

gr('track', 'conversion', { email: "email@example.com" });

What you need to know about the snippet
The tracking script has to be live where you fire the snippet
The snippet only sends us information when there is an active cookie (so if someone came from an affiliate link)
The snippet has to be inserted into the code of your registration form
The snippet has to be only fired ONCE. Only fire it at new signups!
Change email@example.com to the actual email attribute from the sign up form.

How does the snippet work?
It looks if there is an active cookie
It sends us the email from the person signing up (to your tool)
We attribute the sign up to the right affiliate (based on the cookie)
