It will be displayed as follows:

Where will the settings be done?

Go to Jobster Settings > Extensions > Affiliate > Scroll down to 'License' > Note the license key > Save Changes.

After that, press the 'Activate' button and make sure your license is showing as active.

Go to Jobster Settings > Extensions > Affiliate. Notice there are two parts of the settings: All the Referrals and Registered Referrals

1. All the Referrals – these settings will apply to all of the visitors/affiliates, regardless if they already have a registered account or not. Settings are fairly self-explanatory. Just a couple of options are offered:

–  Pay per unique visit: set to ON if you want each user to pay every time he enters your site (depending on how many days you set on Cookies life).

Pay per job purchased: paying the affiliate who referred a buyer a percentage of the job value, or fixed amount, along with a limit to that amount (for example, I wish to pay affiliates 5% of each job purchased, with a limit at $5)
Cookie life: You can set a number of days the system would remember a particular user from the day he/she had accessed the referral url. If that particular user returns within the specified time period, and makes a purchase, the affiliate will still be credited for that sale.
EG: If the same user accesses your site multiple times on one month ( As I have it set to 30 days ) he will only pay once. If he enters after the 30 days after the registration, he pays again.

2. Registered Referrals: the following settings are applied only to users who registered through an affiliate link.

–  Pay per registered user: each user that registers through an affiliate link will have to pay the sum admin sets there. This sum will be taken only once!

–  Pay for the first job published: the admin gets money for the first job published by each seller.

–  Pay per job purchased: the admin gets money for every purchased job. It can be a fixed sum (setting a max number of transactions ) or a percent ( also by setting a limit of money and a max number of transactions).

–  Pay per job sold: the admin gets money for every sold. It can be a fixed sum (setting a max number of transactions ) or a percent ( Also by setting a limit of money and a max number of transactions).

–  Pay per job featured: the admin gets money for every featured job. It can be a fixed sum (setting a max number of transactions ) or a percent ( also by setting a limit of money and a max number of transactions).

–  Pay per balance top up: the admin gets money for every top up job. It can be a fixed sum (setting a max number of transactions ) or a percent ( also by setting a limit of money and a max number of transactions).

Where can I see the reports/statistics?

The admin can check on every user as follows: Go to Admin > Users > Select a user > Edit > Scroll down to 'Actions' section

How each user can see affiliate reports?

Go to your profile > Payments >  Affiliate reports and you will find the reports and how much money was earned.
