Create affiliate

Creates a new affiliate in your account with the specified parameters.

This endpoint allows merchants to create affiliates on demand.

Both normal affiliates and customer referrers can be created through this endpoint. To create a customer referrer, simply pass the stripe_customer_id parameter that indicates the Stripe Customer that should receive account credits as rewards.

Rewardful does not send a "Welcome Email" or require email confirmation for affiliates created through the REST API. If you would like to send a "Welcome Email" to these affiliates, you can do so from your application after making the API call, respond to the affiliate.created webhook, or configure on of our email integrations.
