Creem Affiliate Program Integration

Through checkout metadata and discount codes. The checkout runs on creem.io, so a cookie on your site cannot follow the customer there. Instead the referral id travels into the checkout as referly_ref metadata — set by the snippet for payment links, or by your own checkout call — and Creem's webhook reports the sale back with it. A partner's discount code attributes on its own, with no link involved.

Yes. Every renewal arrives through the webhook as its own payment, so a partner can be paid for a set number of payments, for a set number of months, or for as long as the subscription runs. Trials arrive too, so a referral shows up before the first invoice is paid.

The commission is clawed back automatically, for chargebacks as well as refunds. One caveat: a partial refund reverses the full commission, not a proportional slice of it.

Yes. Referly creates the code in Creem when a partner joins, so a customer who types it at checkout is attributed with no link click involved. A code created without a product limit is pinned to the products that existed when it was made, so set a limit or recreate codes when your catalogue changes. Automatic code generation is on Business and up.

Yes. Paste a test-mode API key — they start with creem_test_ — and Referly talks to Creem's test API instead of the live one, so you can watch a full checkout land before any real money moves. Swap in the live key when you are ready.

For payment links, none beyond the snippet: it stores the click and sets referly_ref on the checkout for you. If you create checkouts through Creem's API, you pass referly_ref in the metadata, which is one line.
