I am developing an online shop which has managed to agree with other shops to a comission per sale. Now, the problem, is these other shops don't have any kind of affiliate system. So my question is, is there any way we could arrange an easy way for this?

They don't plan to develop anything as they are small shops, so... my only guess right now is to control on my site how many times the links to them have been clicked to have an estimate of potential clients, but don't know how they can know that user came through my site and purchased something.

Thank you very much for your help!

You could use the Google Analytics utmz cookie instead.

What you do is this -


When your customer is converting or making the purchase, check the value of the utmz cookie.
If the traffic source is a referral from your partner site then chalk this transaction to their name.
Create a report that fetches such transactions for each partner


I got this idea from this post. Also dead sure that there is a git of a class that nicely reads and parses the utmz cookie.

Maybe they could try setting up a conversion goal on Google Analytics and track the amount of visitors you referred that landed on the checkout page?
