A decision is recorded with its reason and shown to the partner. Reject is the answer to “this is not traffic we want”; suspend keeps the history and stops new earnings — only active affiliates accrue commissions.

Profit is revenue minus commission — what the brand kept after the partner was paid for this trader; ROI expresses it against what we paid out. A losing trader is revenue to the brand, so a negative pft raises this figure rather than lowering it — the sign survives the arithmetic on purpose.

Partners here mostly share links in WhatsApp and Telegram, so a creative is as often a block of copy or a caption as it is a banner. Paused hides an asset from partners without deleting it — links already shared keep working, because attribution is the click's, never the creative's.

Manual adjustment

A commission row written by hand — a goodwill credit, a correction, or a clawback of money already paid. Negative amounts are allowed and are the honest way to reverse a payment: the original row stays in the books.

A click flagged bot was still redirected — a rate limit must never cost the advertiser a visitor — but it was not attributed and cannot earn. A repeat click is the same visitor arriving again inside the unique window: it counts towards gross traffic but not towards the unique figure that conversion rate and EPC are divided by.

Marking a payout paid settles the commissions it covers and moves the affiliate's lifetime paid total. Do it when the money has actually left, not when you intend to send it — approved is the state for that.

Every call in both directions, verbatim: what was sent, what came back, how long it took. This is the answer to “we sent it and you did not record it” — expand a row for the bodies. API keys are stored redacted to ***.
