After inviting an Affiliate

An invited affiliate is marked with an Invite pending banner until they have confirmed their desire to join as an affiliate of your site:

​

If an invitation expires

If your invited affiliate doesn’t confirm within 72 hours, their row updates to show an Invite expired badge in place of a join date. Because they never completed registration, their name won’t be clickable and there’s no Edit option. An expired invitee is not an affiliate. They have no Share Links or Coupon Code, and they cannot earn commission on any sale until they confirm their invitation. You have two options from the row’s action menu:

• Resend sends a new invitation email with a fresh 72-hour window. The badge returns to Invite pending. Once they confirm, they become a full affiliate and can begin earning commission.
• Delete removes the expired invitation from your affiliates list and frees that email address, so you can invite the same person again later.

Invitations still within the 72-hour window show No actions available. Resend and Delete appear only once the invitation has expired.
