Bold Subscriptions is a great tool for creating and managing subscription products for your Shopify store. With the Bold Subscriptions and Refersion integration, you can pay affiliates for each recurring order for a subscription or deny the commissions after a certain number of occurrences - whichever better fits your program goals.
PLEASE NOTE: The Bold Subscriptions app has two versions, v1 and v2. Depending on which version you use, you may need to reach out to our team to configure additional settings in your Refersion account to support recurring commissions for renewing subscriptions.
Bold Subscriptions V1:
This version of the app uses the Bold Subscriptions checkout for processing subscription orders. This version of Bold Subscriptions allows you to give affiliates a recurring commission in Refersion when the customer renews their subscription - no additional configuration is needed in your account.
Bold Subscriptions v2:
This version of the app uses the Shopify checkout to process subscription orders. With this version of the app, we can only attribute the first order of the subscription to affiliates. We do not have a direction integration with Bold Subscriptions for their v2 app; however, subscription renewals can be attributed to affiliates using our lifetime commissions feature. Reach out to our team for more information.
In order to determine which version of the Bold Subscriptions app your store uses, please reference this help article.
Add Refersion to Bold Subscriptions v1
From your Shopify's admin panel, go to Apps and click on Bold Subscriptions v1:
On the left navigation panel, go to the Integrations>View All Integrations tab:
Scroll down until you find Refersion:
Click on Refersion and enter your Refersion Public and Private keys, which can be found by going to Account > Settings > Refersion API (more info on where to find your API keys can be found here).
Click Save, and you're all set! The last step is to run a test order.
Managing Recurrence
You can choose the number of recurring orders that should be credited to the affiliate by going to Manage > Offers > Offer Name > Advanced Options.
Under Automatically deny conversions for renewing subscriptions? choose No to always credit the affiliate or set it to Yes and choose the number of occurrences for which you’d like them to receive credit.
Please note that when using Bold Subscriptions, Refersion will not consider the cookie days setting for marking conversions as Unqualified.
