Partner sales from Stripe Payment Links, Buy Buttons and Pricing Tables

If you sell with Stripe's no-code checkouts, partner sales are now credited automatically. Nothing to change in your checkout.

If you sell through a Stripe Payment Link, a Buy Button or a Pricing Table, Affitor now credits the sale to the partner who sent the customer. You do not need to change your checkout or add a parameter.

How it works

When a visitor arrives from a partner link, the Affitor tracker already on your page passes that click to Stripe. It adds a client_reference_id to every buy.stripe.com link and to every <stripe-buy-button> and <stripe-pricing-table> on the page, including ones that load later. Stripe returns it with the completed checkout, and Affitor credits the partner.

It works for one-time payments, subscriptions, the first invoice and renewals.

What you need

  • Stripe connected to Affitor.
  • The hosted tracker on the page that holds the checkout.

Good to know

  • First click wins. If the buyer is already a customer of another partner, they stay with that partner.
  • A client_reference_id you set yourself is kept, unless it starts with aff_.
  • Visitors who have not given tracking consent, when you use consent mode, are not passed to Stripe.
  • If you record clicks yourself and set data-affitor-clicks="off" on the tracker, it does not add the value.
