    Hi,

    Im just wondering if someone used an affiliate link and ordered free membership or paid. Whether or not that affiliate will get paid if user ends up purchasing something months later.

    Thanks

    This depends on affiliate programm settings. Both ways are possible.

    How would you set it up? I know about Recurring payments and setting each product/subscription to a certain percentage.

    I've never seen no settings to allow or disallow payments to affiliates for any other subscriptoins ordered.

    Is it just the "Affiliate commissions for first & Following Payments Settings"? I have them both enabled and set the percentage.

    Is there anything I have to do, and will it not work unless the (p3p) cookie is still active on there computer months later which would be highly unlikely?

    Thanks.

    To disable commission for specific products you need to set commission settings inside product to zero.
    aMember will not add zero commissions.
    When user purchase first time, aMember store affiliate ID in his profile, so when user will purchase anything in the future, affiliate ID from profile will be used. Even if cookie will expire.
