A Share Link is a URL that can lead to any site or page (even a site outside Kajabi).

When a visitor clicks on a Share Link, a cookie is placed in their browser for 30 days. This cookie will track the visitor's habits on your site and attribute any profit generated from that visitor to the appropriate Affiliate.

Keep in mind that although you can track the clicks for specific share links, there is no way to determine which Affiliate Link was used by a specific customer or the Affiliate credited.

Create Share Links that lead to any URL, Landing Page, or Checkout Page. As long as the visitor completes a purchase of an Offer on Kajabi using the same browser where they originally clicked the Share Link, the sale will be credited to the Affiliate User.

Truncating an Affiliate Share Link using tools like the Bitly URL shortener will still credit the Affiliate for the conversion.

Note:
Affiliates will only be credited if you set an Affiliate percentage in the Offer. Learn to set up your Affiliate Commission in the After Purchase settings of your Offer.

Generate a new share link

Get started with your Affiliate Share Link by creating your custom link:

  • Open the Sales tab from your Dashboard.
  • Click Affiliates.
  • Select Share Links from the top menu of the Affiliate Dashboard.
  • Click New affiliate link.
    Or, if you've previously created an affiliate link, click New Link at the top right:


Share link editor

Create your link

Enter the name and target URL where you'd like the Affiliate Share Link to redirect. The name and URL will be visible to the Affiliate.

Redirect to a:

  • Custom URL
  • Landing Page
  • Checkout Page

This link will be accessible to every Affiliate User on your site, and will contain their unique tracking info.

Private

Toggle on or off the Private setting in the Share Link Editor to hide the link from your Affiliates or make it accessible to every Affiliate on your site. 

Creating a Private Share Link will not display the Share Link in your Affiliate's Portal. This can allow you to keep the Share Link unpublished or send the Share Link directly to a specific Affiliate only.

Note:
Although you can track clicks for specific share links, there is no way to determine which Affiliate Link was used and who used the link.
