Hi. Nice plugin but when adding an event from another supplier, my client would like to be able to pass an affiliate ID with the ‘Order Now’ so that the event organiser can see that it’s come from my client’s site.
This is the link my client has given me…
http://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/herminia-ibarra-on-making-the-transition-to-leadership-tickets-15418798040?aff=IbarraAffiliate&afu=51759957092As it stands, I can only import the 15418798040 ID and the affiliate isn’t passed through. Is there a way I can do this? I can see that A LOT of people have requested a solution for affiliation.
Thanks.

Currently that’s not supported by the plugin, but I do see this existing feature request which you can add your support to:
Besides that and a couple of other topics here on the forum – one that seems to be by the same user behind the above request and another posted approximately 1 year ago – I’m not sure I have the same impression that it is a large amount of demand for this — that’s not to say we won’t consider adding new functionality along these lines in the future, of course, so please do up-vote the above UserVoice post if you like it.
Thanks!
March 9, 2015 at 5:29 am #946855BenParticipantI think I miss-used the caps ‘A LOT’ there. Didn’t mean to be over dramatic but had just seen some posts on the forum for people wanting the same or similar functionality and there didn’t seem to be a solution yet.
I just got the impression that other people were asking the same thing:
1) https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/eventbrite-affiliate-woocommerce-tickets/
2) https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/referral-affiliate-integration/
3) https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/the-events-calendar-pro-affiliate-program/ (maybe not eventBrite integrated but it would be a similar idea of passing an affiliate ID through).
4) https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/event-pages-and-referrer-url-detection/ (passing a promo code or referral code in the URL to eventbrite – similar to affiliate code)
5) https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/artist-official-events/
6) https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/eventbrite-user-id-error-message/
7) https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/community-events-eventrbrite-plugins/Would be v handy. Thanks.
March 9, 2015 at 8:22 am #946923BarryMemberSo support for affiliate systems in general isn’t uncommon, but not all of those relate specifically to Eventbrite and the final solution would be quite different in almost every case.
This topic for instance relates to WooCommerce Tickets but doesn’t really state which affiliate system they wish to use. This topic is asking about an affiliate program for our own products (ie, the customer is wondering if they can be compensated for recommending our own plugins to others).
This other topic does relate – broadly – to Eventbrite Tickets, but it is more about setting up a custom affiliate system where the site displays a coupon code to the visitor, before they even progress to eventbrite.com, so again isn’t quite the same.
All in all there are lots of enquiries about affiliate systems in general – but not many I can see that actually dovetail nicely with your own request here.
Would be v handy. Thanks.
For sure.
Right now the best way forward though would be to support the existing feature request (if you haven’t already done so) and we’ll certainly evaluate it 🙂
Thanks again!
March 9, 2015 at 8:31 am #946931BenParticipantOK – I did vote it up. Thanks.
March 9, 2015 at 9:01 am #946946BarryMemberOur pleasure 🙂
