Vendors have the ability to create affiliate contests to be used as motivation for affiliates.

To set up your own Leaderboard widget, take a look at our quick demo, or follow our step-by-step guide below:

Once you have created the contest, you can view the leaderboard within your Vendor account, by accessing the Affiliates β†’ Marketing β†’ Contests Section.

You can view your Leaderboard Widget and copy the code to embed it onto your own page of choice by clicking on the 3-dotted menu icon, and selecting the Leaderboard option.

Simply copy the code, and paste it onto a page as an HTML / Custom iFrame code in your Landing Page Builder options:

Once you embed the Affiliate Contest Widget onto any webpage, all contest stats will be automatically updated and displayed dynamically for you without you ever having to calculate sales totals and manually creating leaderboard updates.

Please Note: The Contest Widget only takes the selected products into consideration when presenting affiliate-related sales stats.

The Affiliate Summary within your dashboard in PayKickstart would include sales of all products affiliates are approved to promote.

In case products offering the β€œSplit Pay” option are selected within the Contest’s options, the Contest Widget would show the full amount that would have been received once all split pay payments had been completed successfully if an affiliate makes a sale of that product, where the customer had chosen to pay via the Split Pay option.
