Overview

An Offer is a product for which you would like to track performance and Partner earnings.

This guide is specific for Everflow clients with an eCommerce brand/store. To simplify your process for setting up offers, this guide will skip over many fields that we have deemed less relevant for an eCommerce use case.

Please feel free to check out the tool tips within the platform by hovering your mouse over the question mark icons to learn more about each field, or reach out to our support team via in-platform live chat with questions.


A How-To Guide

Creating the Offer

**Please note: Your Customer Success Manager will walk you through the creation of your first Offer during your onboarding stage. To create a new Offer, we recommend that you start by duplicating an existing successful Offer.

To duplicate an Offer, navigate to Offers - Manage > Find an existing Offer - Scroll to right and click on the three vertical dots > Copy. Alternatively, from inside an Offer, you can select Copy from the General card.

Editing the Offer

When you duplicate an Offer, you will start on the General tab for the duplicated Offer. On the General card, click Edit.

If you prefer to create an Offer from scratch instead of duplicating an existing Offer, navigate to Offers - Add.

Setting up an Offer

Complete each of the following steps to properly configure your Offer.

  1. General
    Define the general settings for your Offer.

    • Description

  2. Revenue & Payout
    Define the revenue and payout associated with both the base Conversion (product purchase, etc.) and any associated Events (upsell, page view, newsletter subscription, etc.)
