Troubleshooting
An affiliate's coupon code is not being attributed. What should I check?
I installed the tracking script but clicks are not being tracked. What now?
My Stripe webhook shows 200 but no conversions are recorded. Why?
My team member cannot sign in or is stuck choosing a role. How do I fix it?
Why is an affiliate conversion not showing up?
Why is my dashboard showing the wrong currency?
The commission is automatically reversed and marked refunded, and any payout still queued for it is cancelled. A partial refund reduces the commission in proportion to the amount refunded.
LinkJolt keeps commissions in sync with refunds, so you are not paying out on money you gave back.
When the refund reaches LinkJolt through your payment processor's webhook, the matching commission is reversed and marked as refunded. If a payout for it was still queued and had not been sent, that queued payout is cancelled automatically.
The commission is reduced in proportion to the amount refunded, so the affiliate keeps commission only on what the customer actually kept.
If a commission was already paid out before the refund happened, it cannot be clawed back automatically. Reconcile that directly with the affiliate, or offset it against their next payout.
How are recurring commissions calculated for subscriptions?
When recurring commissions are enabled on a campaign, LinkJolt records a commission on each subscription renewal at your configured rate, until the optional cap is reached. You choose whether the cap counts months or payments.
Can I pay affiliates in their own currency?
Yes. LinkJolt tracks each campaign in the merchant's currency, and payouts can be made through Stripe Connect or CSV export so you can settle with affiliates in the currency that suits them.
Does LinkJolt hold my money or process my payments?
No. LinkJolt never holds or processes your funds. You keep your own Stripe or Paddle account, payments go straight to you, and LinkJolt only records conversions and facilitates affiliate payouts.
When and how do affiliates actually get paid?
You approve a commission, then pay the affiliate by Stripe Connect (automated) or CSV export (manual). On Professional and Ultimate you can turn on auto-payout, which queues approved commissions and pays them automatically within about 24 hours.
