How to Know if a Sale Was Attributed to Your Shopee Affiliate Link
What Happens After Someone Clicks Your Link
When someone clicks your Shopee affiliate link, Shopee records a cookie on their device. If they buy within the cookie validity period, the sale is attributed to you. This information appears in the affiliate dashboard with statuses such as pending, confirmed or cancelled.
Where to See Sales in the Dashboard
The affiliate dashboard has a section called "Sales report", "Orders" or "Performance". There you find: click date and time, purchase date, product acquired, sale value, estimated commission and order status.
Sale Statuses
Pending means the sale was registered but not yet confirmed. Confirmed means the purchase was completed and the commission is released for payment. Cancelled means the order was cancelled or returned and the commission was reversed. Analysis means Shopee is verifying if the sale followed the program rules.
Why a Sale May Not Appear
Common reasons: the buyer clicked another affiliate link after yours, the cookie expired before purchase, the purchase was made on a different device, the product was in a category without commission, or the purchase was cancelled.
How to Track Results Better
In addition to the Shopee panel, use DivulgaNinja to schedule postings and track which links and times generate more engagement, helping identify conversion patterns.
The questions our community asks the most
These are the questions that come up the most in our groups and support channels about this topic. Each one is answered straight to the point.
How do I withdraw Shopee affiliate commission?
Withdrawals come out of the released balance to the bank account or wallet registered in the dashboard, above the program's minimum. Keeping banking and tax details current avoids the most common cause of rejected payouts.
How long does the Shopee affiliate cookie last?
The link itself keeps working; what is short is the attribution window that starts on the click. Republishing offers regularly restarts that window for every new click.
Do I need a company to become a Shopee affiliate?
No. Individuals can register and receive payouts in a personal bank account. A company only becomes useful once commission volume grows and you want cleaner accounting.
How many groups can I promote to at the same time?
There is no fixed cap: the practical limit is how many channels you can keep supplied with fresh, relevant offers. That is where scheduling helps, since one organised post reaches every group at the times you choose.
How long does a Shopee affiliate link last?
The link keeps working; what expires is the attribution window that starts when someone clicks it. Republishing your offers regularly restarts that window for every new click.
What is the best time to post Shopee offers?
Early morning, lunchtime and early evening usually perform best, when people have their phone in hand. Covering those three blocks every day beats posting many times on a single day.
