To exclude a particular product from generating referrals, carefully follow these steps:
1. Create a New Product Rate
Access the Ultimate Affiliate Pro Dashboard and go to “Product Rates.” Create a new offer, setting the offer amount to 0. Determine the date range during which the offer will be active. Select the specific products and affiliates for which this offer will be valid. By setting the offer amount to 0, it will override the usual referral rate, effectively excluding referrals for this product. For comprehensive details on Product Rates, refer to the linked article.
2. Adjust the Used Referral Amount
Navigate to the Ultimate Affiliate Pro Dashboard > General Settings > General Settings. Under “Which Amount should be used for Referral?”, select “LOWEST AMOUNT.” This setting ensures that if a product’s referral amount is set to 0 in the offer (as done in Step 1), it will be considered the lowest amount for that referral. For more information about this setting, refer to the linked article.
3. Optional: Disable Empty Referrals
In the Ultimate Affiliate Pro Dashboard, go to General Settings > General Settings. Scroll down to “Empty Referrals” and disable it. By disabling this option, the system will not save payment information for referrals with a value of $0. For further insights on this feature, consult the linked article.
To summarize, let’s say you wish to exclude “Product 01” from providing referrals to all affiliates. Follow these steps:
1. Create a new offer targeted at all affiliates, with a duration as needed.
2. Select “Product 01” for this offer and set its amount to $0.
3. In General Settings, set the “Which Amount should be used for Referral?” to “LOWEST AMOUNT.”
4. Optionally, disable the “Empty Referrals” feature to avoid saving $0 referrals.
By following these instructions, you can successfully exclude “Product 01” from generating referrals for your affiliates.
