Use coupon code attribution on Stripe, Paddle, Polar, Creem, Lemon Squeezy or Apple. Create a discount code in your payment processor, register it in LinkJolt against an affiliate, and LinkJolt matches the discount when an order uses it. No checkout code changes needed.
Coupon code attribution lets you track affiliate sales with zero checkout changes. It covers Stripe coupons, Paddle, Polar, Creem and Lemon Squeezy discounts, and Apple offer codes. Lemon Squeezy takes one extra step: its webhook never names the code, so LinkJolt reads it through a Lemon Squeezy API key you save under Integrations, on the Payment Links tab. On Gumroad, GoPay or WooCommerce, LinkJolt does not read discount codes, so use tracking links there instead.
Some processors send an id rather than the code itself, so the code alone is not always enough to match a sale.
On Stripe, Polar and Creem you can also let LinkJolt create codes in your own account. If you have set that up on the Coupons tab, the coupon form defaults to creating the code for you, so switch it to "I already created it in Stripe" (or Polar, or Creem) to follow the steps above. A campaign can also give every approved affiliate their own code automatically, created in your Stripe, Polar or Creem. Paddle, Lemon Squeezy and Apple codes are always added by hand.
Either way, LinkJolt never edits or deletes a code that already existed in your account. Deleting a coupon in LinkJolt stops the tracking, and the code stays live in your processor until you remove it there.
Register the code in LinkJolt before the affiliate starts sharing it. Orders placed before the code is registered cannot be matched retroactively without a manual backfill.
This is the simplest path for merchants who do not want to touch their checkout, and it pairs well with tracking links for full coverage.
How long does an affiliate stay credited after someone clicks their link?
30 days. A click stores that affiliate's details in the visitor's browser for 30 days, and a purchase made in that period is credited to them. The window is fixed: there is no setting to change it per campaign or per plan.
Where do I put the script when my landing page and checkout are on different platforms?
Put the script on every page a visitor sees before they pay, starting with the landing page. It only rewrites Stripe Payment Link, Polar checkout, Gumroad and Lemon Squeezy links for you, so for any other jump to a different domain you have to carry the tc, aff and cid parameters across yourself.
How do I install the LinkJolt tracking script?
Copy the one line script tag from the Integration Hub in your dashboard and paste it into the head of every page a visitor can land on. Copy it rather than typing it, because the tag carries your own merchant ID and a wrong ID never raises an error.
An affiliate's coupon code is not being attributed. What should I check?
Confirm the exact code is registered against the affiliate, that you filled in the ID field your processor actually sends, and that the affiliate is not rejected or suspended. Stripe promotion codes need their promo_ ID.
