Question about affiliates

Finally i started to build my first e comers shop , i will do the drop shipping and also affiliates on this site .
This is for the first time i will have internet store and this is why i would like to know what two-tier affiliate program means , what is tier and what is difference between 1 or 2 tier .
Thanks in advance :)

Hi Etro,

'Tier' means 'level'. A two tier affiliate program pays commissions on two levels/tiers - one, the usual commission on your own affiliate sales and two, a small percentage on the every sale made, by any new affiliate you refer to the program/company using your unique affiliate links.

Hope this helps. :)

Thank you Irene

You are most welcome Etro! :)

Hi.
Etro what do you sell and how is your affiliate program set up?
