AffiliateWP Order Details For Affiliates

AffiliateWP Order Details For Affiliates adds a dedicated view for referral-related order information. A logged-in affiliate can see the details associated with each referral from the affiliate dashboard, while administrators control which affiliates receive access and which fields appear.

Referral context in one place

The add-on addresses a specific gap in an affiliate workflow: a referral record can show that a conversion happened, but the affiliate often needs more context about the underlying order. This extension puts that information alongside the affiliate’s existing dashboard rather than requiring a separate reporting route.

The same information can also be displayed on another page with the included [affiliate_order_details] shortcode. That gives site owners a choice between keeping the view inside the standard dashboard and placing it within a custom affiliate-facing page.

Details administrators can expose

The field list is broad enough to support both basic commission checking and more detailed order follow-up. Available details include:

• Order number and order date
• Order total and referral amount
• Customer name and email address
• Customer phone number in WooCommerce
• Customer shipping and billing addresses in WooCommerce

Administrators can disable specific information from showing, rather than treating the order record as an all-or-nothing disclosure. That field-level control is important where affiliates need confirmation of an order but should not receive every customer detail.

Access and email delivery

Access can be enabled globally for all affiliates or assigned on a per-affiliate basis. The global option suits programmes with a consistent disclosure policy, while individual control supports a more selective arrangement where only certain partners need order visibility.

The add-on also emails the order details to the affiliate when the referral is created. This makes the information available without requiring the affiliate to revisit the dashboard, and gives the referral event a corresponding order summary in the affiliate’s inbox.

What to weigh

The main reservation is the sensitivity of the information involved. Names, email addresses, phone numbers and full billing or shipping addresses are customer data, so enabling broad access requires a clear decision about what affiliates genuinely need. The global setting is convenient, but it can also apply disclosure more widely than intended if the field controls are not reviewed carefully.

There is also a platform limitation in the field list: phone numbers and address details are identified as WooCommerce-only. Sites using another supported commerce setup will not have those particular details available through this add-on. Finally, per-affiliate permissions provide useful control but introduce administrative work when a programme has many partners or different disclosure rules.

Who it suits

This is aimed at AffiliateWP site owners who want affiliates to understand the orders behind their commissions. It fits programmes where referral amounts need to be reconciled against order totals, where partners require customer or fulfilment context, or where an email record is preferable to dashboard-only access.

It is less appropriate as a general customer-data reporting layer. Its value comes from connecting order details to AffiliateWP referrals, with the shortcode, access settings and field exclusions handling the presentation. For a tightly managed affiliate programme, that focused approach keeps the feature set understandable while leaving administrators responsible for the disclosure policy.
