Celebrating 10 Years of Coupon Affiliates
Today marks a major milestone for Coupon Affiliates.
10 years ago, the first version of Coupon Affiliates was created, beginning a journey that has transformed a simple plugin into a comprehensive affiliate solution for WooCommerce.
We want to take this opportunity to reflect on our history, celebrate how far we’ve come, and most importantly, thank you for being a part of it.
From a Simple Need to a Powerful Solution
Coupon Affiliates began in 2015 with a straightforward request: a tool to help a store owner track their WooCommerce coupon usage.
This initial feature was released as a free plugin, “WooCommerce Coupon Usage”, on wordpress.org.
What happened next was driven entirely by the community.
Users began reaching out with feature requests, highlighting a clear demand for more advanced capabilities. This user feedback was the catalyst for creating the PRO version and guided our development roadmap, one feature at a time.
The most significant evolution was the addition of a dedicated affiliate dashboard, allowing users to track their own coupon stats.
This pivotal update led to a new name and a new mission: Coupon Affiliates.
Our Commitment to Empowering Merchants
Over the past decade, Coupon Affiliates has grown from a single-feature plugin into a full-fledged affiliate program solution trusted by thousands of businesses worldwide.
This growth has solidified our commitment to providing a powerful, user-friendly, and reliable tool for WooCommerce store owners.
