Gumroad affiliate tracking - FAQ
Why not just use Gumroad's built-in affiliates?
Gumroad's built-in affiliates work well if you only sell on Gumroad. Affiliate Manager adds a cross-platform dashboard, fraud checks, and one payout view for affiliates who also drive sales on Stripe, Shopify or Whop.
Does it cost a percentage of sales?
No - flat $9/month, no per-sale fee, regardless of volume.
Can I combine Gumroad with my other stores?
Yes - track Gumroad alongside Stripe, Shopify, Whop, Lemon Squeezy and 45+ platforms in one dashboard.
What happens to commission when a sale is refunded or charged back?
On Whop, refunds are detected automatically: the sale is marked refunded, the commission comes off the balance, and if it was already paid out a clawback adjustment nets it out of the affiliate's next payout. On other platforms refunds do not sync yet, so cancel a refunded sale before it is paid out - and set a refund hold period so commissions only become payable once your refund window has passed.
What happens if a webhook fails or arrives late?
Webhook events are processed idempotently, so a retry from the platform cannot double-count a sale or pay a commission twice. Late events are attributed on arrival using the stored click data rather than being dropped, and you can trigger a manual sync to reconcile a window where the connection was down.
How long does setup actually take, and what do you need from me?
Connecting the platform takes a few minutes: you authorise the integration or paste an API key, and we register the webhook for you. The part that takes longer is deciding your commission structure and cookie window. You do not need a developer, and you do not need to change your checkout.
Do affiliates have to sign up for anything to get paid?
No. Affiliate Manager tracks what each affiliate has earned and builds the payout list on your schedule (manual, weekly or monthly), then emails you who is owed what. You pay them through your own Stripe, PayPal, Wise or bank - we take 0% - and mark each payout paid.
