    Hi everyone,

    I wonder if someone can help me to find a solution for a problem that I've been thinking over and over again but can't get a solution for it!
    I run a service that works as a bonus when I'm promoting an affiliate offer.
    So imagine I sell a service this way: If you want my service you must sign up for this offer (affiliate offer) and I will give you my service!
    Imagine offer a strategy/ software for betting on casino if a customer sign up trough a casino that I'm affiliate! Got it?
    The thing that I can't find a solution is how can I run an affiliate sales force for it? Because I'm already part of an affiliate sales forces being already affiliate of other person!
    I'm sure that must be a solution because I know that some of my competitors have sub-affiliates!
    The problem is if they are already promoting an affiliate offer how they track the sales, visits, etc of each sub-affiliate they got?
    I know that is possible to generate different affiliate codes, but that way I will have to give all the sub-affiliates acess to my main affiliate account and they will be able to see all sales I made and the others made?
    Well hope that I've been clear. I know this is a little bit confusing. Anyway if you have an idea of make this work or a solution let me know!

    Thanks for your attention!

    Really depends on your affiliate program. The main thing your affiliate program needs is a postback. This will send data to your web server when a sale occurs on your affiliate account. This may include information like amount, sub ID, etc.

    Then you can store this data in your database, the sub ID being your affiliate code, and build a control panel to display this data to your affiliates.
