Lesson
The guided setup
Walk through the onboarding flow end to end, from creating your organization to picking a plan.
The first time you sign in, Afflo runs a guided onboarding that takes you from an empty workspace to a connected store and a first program. Each step has its own Skip button, and your progress is saved if you leave — so you can pause and come back without losing anything.
The steps, in order
With Shopify selected, the flow runs:
- Create Organization — the shared workspace your team and data live in
- Select Your Integrations — Shopify is the recommended pick; WooCommerce shows as Coming Soon
- Connect Shopify — enter your store name and authorize on Shopify’s side
- Email Domain — enter the domain your outreach emails will come from, add the DNS records Afflo shows you, then verify
- Invite Your Team — add teammates by email
- Create Your First Program — name, commissions, and tracking basics
- Choose a plan — plan selection happens on Shopify’s hosted page, not inside Afflo
- You’re All Set — the confirmation screen that drops you into the app
What to have ready before you start
- The Shopify store name and admin access — connecting is what starts order syncing, and attribution, samples, and billing all hang off it
- A sending domain you control DNS for — unverified domains trip spam filters, which quietly kills your outreach before it starts
- Your teammates’ email addresses, if you want to invite them in one pass
If you skip a step
Nothing breaks. Skipped steps can be finished later from Settings — the store connection under Settings → Stores, the team under Settings → Team. Skipping is for ordering, not for avoiding the work.
