PromoteKit is an easy-to-use affiliate marketing software for companies using Stripe. PromoteKit provides 2 different ways for Memberstack users to track affiliates: affiliate links and affiliate promo codes.

How To Set Up an Affiliate Program with Memberstack and PromoteKit

To start, you’ll need to create a PromoteKit account. Then, go through the onboarding steps until you reach Step 4: PromoteKit Integration, and click the Memberstack option. Choose whether you’d like to use affiliate links or affiliate promo codes for tracking, and follow the corresponding instructions below.

Affiliate Links Setup

  1. Copy the script under Option 1: Affiliate links, and embed the script in the <head> section of your Memberstack website.
  2. Once the script is added, remember to publish your site. Then click Ok, I’ve completed this back in PromoteKit.

When testing the integration, keep in mind that referrals will only be tracked in Stripe live mode. If you’d like to test the integration in live mode without spending any money, you can create a 100% off promo code in Stripe.

To test the full referral flow:

  1. Sign up on your own affiliate portal, and create your own affiliate link.
  2. Click your own affiliate link, and go to sign up and checkout on your Memberstack website.
  3. During checkout, apply the 100% off promo code if you don’t want to spend any money.
  4. After checking out, check back in PromoteKit to make sure the email you used to checkout shows up as a referral.

Affiliate Promo Codes Setup

  1. Create a coupon for your affiliates in Stripe - you can follow our documentation for creating a coupon in Stripe.
  2. In PromoteKit, refresh the page, click the default coupon code dropdown, and select the coupon code you just created.

That’s all that’s needed for the promo codes setup. PromoteKit will automatically create new promo codes in Stripe when new affiliates onboard on your affiliate portal. The promo codes integration currently only works in Stripe live mode.
