About AffiliateWP Signup Referrals 1.2
AffiliateWP Signup Referrals is an add-on for AffiliateWP, listed under marketing and affiliate categories. The developers are given as Pippin Williamson and Andrew Munro. The idea is simple: instead of paying only on a sale, you can reward an affiliate when a visitor they referred signs up for an account on your site.
The listing does not describe settings, payout options or supported registration forms, so read the documentation in the package. The file on record is version 1.2, about 31 KB, with a release date of November 2021. Test it with your current WordPress and AffiliateWP on a staging site before relying on it.
Requirements
- AffiliateWP (the parent plugin) installed and active
Key features
- Referrals for sign-ups
- Credits an affiliate for a referred user registration rather than a purchase.
- Built for AffiliateWP
- Adds to your existing AffiliateWP program instead of replacing it.
- Small package
- The file is around 31 KB, so it is a single-purpose add-on.
- Useful without a shop
- Fits sites where the goal is account creation, such as a members area or a trial account, not a checkout.
Is it right for you?
A good fit for
- Sites that want affiliates paid for registrations
- AffiliateWP programs for software trials or community sites
Look elsewhere if
- Stores that only pay affiliates on completed orders
- Sites without AffiliateWP
How to install AffiliateWP Signup Referrals 1.2
- 1
Download the file

- 2

Notes for this product
- Activate AffiliateWP first. The listing does not state which registration forms are covered; check the documentation in the package.
Setup: using AffiliateWP Signup Referrals 1.2
- Confirm AffiliateWP works. Make sure affiliate links are tracking visits before adding this add-on.
- Activate the add-on. Install it and look for its new options in the AffiliateWP settings.
- Set the referral amount. Choose the reward for a sign-up, following the package documentation.
- Register a test user. Use an affiliate link in a private window, register, and check that a referral appears.
Common problems and fixes
A test sign-up creates no referral
- Why it happens
- The visitor was not tracked through an affiliate link, or the registration form is not one the add-on handles.
- How to fix it
- Open the affiliate link first in a clean browser, register with the standard WordPress form, and check Referrals in AffiliateWP.
“The link you followed has expired.” when uploading
- Why it happens
- The zip is larger than your server's PHP upload limit (upload_max_filesize / post_max_size).
- How to fix it
- Raise the upload limit in your hosting control panel, or unzip the file and upload the folder to wp-content/plugins with your host's file manager or SFTP.
“The package could not be installed. No valid plugins were found.”
- Why it happens
- The uploaded zip is a bundle (or a theme), not the plugin itself.
- How to fix it
- Unzip the download once and upload the inner zip named after the plugin.
“Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.”
- Why it happens
- Usually a PHP version older than the plugin needs, or a second copy of the same plugin (for example the free version) still active.
- How to fix it
- Check your PHP version under Tools → Site Health → Info, deactivate any other copy of the plugin, and enable WP_DEBUG_LOG to see the exact error.
Licence or “updates unavailable” notices
- Why it happens
- The developer's licence key isn't included. Features that call the developer's servers (template libraries, cloud APIs, automatic updates) need it.
- How to fix it
- Everything that runs locally works without it. For a newer file, use Request an update from your account.
Frequently asked questions
Does it work without AffiliateWP?
No. It extends AffiliateWP and needs it active.
Does it pay on purchases too?
That is handled by AffiliateWP and its integrations. This add-on is for sign-ups.
Which registration forms does it cover?
The listing does not say. Check the documentation in the package and test with your own form.
