The referral object

A referral represents a unique visit to your website that came via an affiliate link.

Conversion states

A referral has three distinct conversion states:

State

Description

Visitor

This is the default state for a new referral. It represents an anonymous visitor on your site who has not converted to a lead or conversion.

Lead

A lead is a visitor who has provided their contact information or "converted" to a non-paying state, i.e. a free trial or freemium account.

Conversion

A conversion represents a paying customer who arrived via an affiliate link. A "lead" becomes a "conversion" after paying you any amount
