Partner (affiliate) stores

What a partner store is, approving an application, setting commission, editing the store, and what the partner sees in their dashboard.

A partner (called an affiliate in the admin) is a gym, clinic, coach or community that gets its own copy of the Chisel shop at partner.haloweave.store, in their colours and logo, selling the same catalogue. Every order placed on their store earns them a commission. Chisel still takes the payment, ships through the brands, and invoices the customer.

Live examples: medifit.haloweave.store and powergym.haloweave.store.

Approving a new partner

  1. Open the partner with status Pending. Check the owner's name, email and phone, and the requested store address (slug). The slug becomes their web address, so it must be short, lowercase, and not misleading.
  2. Phone or email them. Agree the commission percentage and the payout cadence (monthly is the default).
  3. Click Edit. Set Status: Onboarding, enter Commission %, and fill in the Payout details (bank account with IFSC, or UPI ID). Save.
  4. Ask Haloweave to create their dashboard login (email + password) for now; the invite email is on the roadmap.
  5. Send them their store link and dashboard link: https://<slug>.haloweave.store and https://<slug>.haloweave.store/dashboard.
  6. When their store looks ready (logo, colour, hero, about copy), set Status: Active.

Editing a partner

Click Edit on the detail page. The drawer has everything on one form.

GroupFields
IdentityName, slug, status.
Owner contactName, email, phone.
ThemeBrand colour and primary colour (hex, for example #da1e5d), logo and banner (upload a file or paste a link). The partner can also change the colour and copy themselves.

AboutHeadline, copy and an optional hero video URL for their About section.

Create affiliate at the top of the list opens the same form for a partner you are onboarding by hand, without an application.

Deleting a partner

Delete on the detail page removes the record and asks you to type the slug to confirm. Prefer Terminated status: it keeps the commission history for accounts.

What the partner sees: their dashboard

Partners log in at https://<slug>.haloweave.store/dashboard.

The partner dashboard overview
The partner dashboard overview

Overview shows orders, items sold, gross sales, earnings, commission rate, a 30-day earnings chart, pending payout, recent orders with commission per order, and their store link to share.

Customise Store: the theme editor with live preview
Customise Store: the theme editor with live preview

Customise Store lets them change, with a live preview and instant publish:

  • Brand colour (the whole store re-tints from this one colour) and light or dark default theme.
  • Logo URL, hero headline, sub-text and hero image URL.
  • Promo banner URL, About headline and copy.

Images in the partner's own dashboard are given as web links. If a partner sends you an image file, upload it from the Edit drawer on their Affiliates page instead; the link fills itself.

Catalogue curation
Catalogue curation

Catalogue lets them pick which products their store features. Nothing selected means the full catalogue. Prices and stock are always Chisel's; partners cannot change them.

Orders, Payouts and Settings tabs in their dashboard are marked Soon. Today they see recent orders on the overview and hear about payouts from Chisel.

How commission is recorded

The moment an order is placed on a partner store, a commission entry is created: order value, the partner's percentage at that time, and the commission amount, with status accrued. Refunds reverse the entry. On the payout cadence Chisel finance pays the accrued total and marks it paid. Details on Commission and payouts.
