How PartnerDock works
From affiliate signup to tracked referral to paid commission — every step, on the record.
Set up your program
Add your Shopify app, set your commission terms (revenue share, per install, or fixed), and publish your affiliate signup page. Takes under 10 minutes. Your program page is live at getpartnerdock.com/p/[your-app].
Recruit and approve affiliates
Share your program page or invite partners directly. Review applications and approve the right ones. Each affiliate gets a unique referral link — both a PartnerDock tracked redirect and a Shopify App Store direct link in the same format as Mantle (mref). Old Mantle links work automatically — no link changes needed for existing affiliates.
Track referrals, manage payouts
Every click and install is logged. Referrals are attributed with a match confidence label — exact, likely, or manually assigned. Approve commissions, export a PayPal CSV, mark payouts paid, and generate receipts automatically.
Apply to a program
Find a program page, fill out a short application, and get approved — instantly or after review.
Get your referral links
Your unique links are ready immediately after approval. Use the PartnerDock tracked link or the direct App Store link — both shown in your portal.
Track earnings and request payouts
See every click, referred install, and dollar of commission in your portal. Once you hit the payout threshold, request your payout in one click.
