The Add to Affiliate Campaign workflow action enrolls a contact as an active affiliate in a specific affiliate campaign. Once added, the affiliate can use their referral link to drive sales and earn commissions.
When to Use This Action
Best when you want recruits to land in a specific campaign — for example, a seasonal promotion or a product-specific program — instead of just being added to the master Affiliate Manager list.
How to Set It Up
- Choose the action type: Pick Add To Affiliate Campaign.
- Name your action: e.g., Enroll Affiliates in Campaign XYZ.
- Select the affiliate campaign: Choose the campaign from the dropdown.
Example: Tag Triggers Campaign Enrollment
