Referly keeps you in the loop by email as your program runs — when a new affiliate joins, when a sale comes in, and when a payout is ready. This page lists the emails you receive as the program owner and how to control them. You manage them in your program’s Settings. In the left sidebar, select Settings, open Program Details, then Email Notifications. Under Your Notifications you’ll find a card for each email, each with a toggle. Switching a toggle takes effect right away — there’s no separate save step. These emails go to the address on your account.

Affiliate activity

New affiliate sign-up

Get notified whenever someone new joins your program. If your program reviews applicants first, this is your cue to approve or decline them.

New referral

Get notified when an affiliate brings in a new referral, so you can watch momentum build across your program in real time.

New sale

Get notified each time an affiliate drives a sale. If your program does high volume, this can be a lot of email — turn it off with its toggle if you’d rather track sales from your analytics instead.

Payouts

New payout ready

Get notified when commissions have built up into a payout that’s ready to be processed.

Payout batch paid

Get notified when a payout batch is successfully paid, so you know your affiliates have been paid out.

Payout batch failed

Get notified when a payout batch or an individual payout fails, so you can act on any failed payouts quickly.

Summaries and other activity

Weekly summary

Receive a once-a-week recap of how your affiliate program is performing — a quick pulse-check without logging in.

Content reward submission

Get notified when an affiliate submits work for one of your content reward campaigns and it’s waiting for your review.

New chat message

Get notified when an affiliate sends you a new message, so a question doesn’t sit unanswered.

Turn an email on or off

Each card under Your Notifications has a toggle. Switch it off to stop that email; switch it on to resume. Your change is saved automatically.
