If a client have the eMember plugin and wp Affiliate plugin in the same web, how the wp Affiliate count a sale?

I supose that I need to integrate the PayPal subscription button with eMember. But I don’t know how can I integrate de wp Affiliate with the eMember plugin.

Hi, To keep things simpler we prefer to have the following options:

1) You can directly hook a PayPal button with eMember

or

2) You can directly hook a PayPal button with the affiliate plugin

or

3) You can use eStore to hook both eMember and the affiliate plugins together

A PayPal hosted button doesn’t allow us to execute a lot of necessary code on the page so it becomes complex to try and connect them together.

Yes, you can connect eMember and the affiliate plugin together with a PayPal hosted button but it look a little complex.

Given your scenario, I would recommend you to go with option number 3. You will find that this option is easier, hides a lot of integration complexity and gives you a better setup flexibility option.

Thank you for your response, Key Master.

But, to work in the same web with eMember and WP Affiliate, it is necessary to buy the eStore plugin?

The WP Affiliate doesn’t count a sale with a button created with eMember?

Thank you.

Hi, Yes, it can do it if you use option 1 mentioned in the following documentation:

However, if you are setting up recurring/subscription payment buttons using PayPal hosted button then it will need a little more work involved but it is doable too.

My recommendation would be to get eStore, eMember and the affiliate plugin together for the subscription button scenario. However, if you are totally set on only doing this with eMember and the affiliate plugin and hosted PayPal button, I will tell you how to do that.

Thank you very much, dear admin.

I’ll try the option 1.
