Cookie is a value stored on the client’s computer. When a user comes to your website via an affiliate link, a cookie is saved on the user’s computer. We use cookies to track affiliate referral.
Each cookie has an expiry date. In our Affiliates Manager plugin, the expiry duration of the cookie is set in the Cookie Duration field.
By default, the duration of the cookie is set to 30 days. This means, if a user comes to your site via an affiliate link and purchases something within 30 days, the affiliate who referred the user will receive commission for it.
You can increase the value of the cookie duration field if you want to offer a longer time duration.
