July Report for Refgrow : Refgrow Discussion Forums

July report for Refgrow 👇

MRR: $296 (+$134)

Paid users: 30 (+6)

Total users: 376 (+53)

I started making Refgrow about 9 months ago, since then I tried to launch it 3 times under different positioning and even a name and it worked only on the 3rd try.

Perhaps the growth is quite slow, especially when compared to all sorts of viral AI tools, but I think this is normal for this kind of product like mine.

I am still looking for a stable channel for growth and trying different marketing channels. The market is quite competitive and it is difficult to gain trust.

What new things have we released recently?

We've just launched one of our biggest updates yet - the Multi-Tier Commission System! This is a game-changer for scaling your affiliate program. Here's what's new:

🌳 Multi-Tier Commission System

Transform your affiliate program into a powerful two-tier system where affiliates can recruit other affiliates:

• Two-Tier Structure: Affiliates can now recruit sub-affiliates and earn commissions from their referrals

• Configurable Tier 2 Commissions: Set custom commission rates (percentage or fixed) for second-level affiliates

• Automatic Commission Calculation: When a Tier 2 affiliate makes a sale, both the Tier 2 affiliate and their Tier 1 parent earn commissions

• Flexible Duration Settings: Choose lifetime or period-based commissions for Tier 2

• Enhanced Analytics: Track performance across both tiers with detailed reporting

• Project Isolation: Complete security with each project's tier system isolated from others

Why this matters: This creates powerful incentives for affiliate recruitment and can exponentially grow your program. Your top affiliates become program recruiters!

📊 Enhanced Affiliate & Referral Analytics

We've completely revamped our analytics with detailed performance insights:

• Affiliate Details Modal: Click any affiliate row to see comprehensive performance data including total clicks, signups, purchases, and earnings

• Conversion History Filtering: Filter conversions by month/year and conversion type for better analysis

• Monthly Earnings Breakdown: Visual indicators showing earnings trends over time

• Referral Journey Tracking: Complete customer journey from first click to conversion with full transaction transparency

• Real-time Filtering: Dynamic filtering and sorting for better data exploration

✅ Conversion Approval System

Take control of your affiliate program with manual conversion approval:

• Manual Approval Workflow: Enable manual approval in project settings to review conversions before commissions are paid

• Three Status Levels: Pending, active, and rejected conversion statuses

• Admin Interface: Easy approve/reject buttons in the referrals page

• Fraud Prevention: Prevent fraudulent or disputed conversions from affecting your budget

• Automatic Processing: When disabled (default), conversions are automatically approved

Perfect for businesses that need extra control over commission payouts.

⏰ Hold Period Settings

Protect your business from refunds and chargebacks with configurable hold periods:

• Flexible Hold Periods: Set hold periods from 0-365 days to delay when earnings become eligible for payout
