Custom Attribution: Choose Between First-Touch and Last-Touch
Right now, all affiliate programs in Affonso use last-touch attribution by default, meaning the most recent affiliate click before a conversion receives credit.
I’m exploring whether it makes sense to give program admins the option to choose between last-touch and first-touch attribution, depending on what fits their strategy best.
First-touch attribution would reward the affiliate who originally referred the user, even if another affiliate re-engages them later. This can be useful for longer sales cycles or content-driven discovery.
If this would be useful for your program, feel free to upvote and add any thoughts in the comments.

I think this makes good sense to provide people running programs with the option. It is a way to add overall transparency to the sale attribution.
