Partners Tab Overview
The Partners tab is where the money side of your operations comes together — third-party services you've connected, your payout ledger, your affiliate URLs, and (for admins) the commission rules that govern revenue share.
What's inside
| Section | What it's for | |---|---| | Connectors | OAuth-connected services: Stripe, Cloudbeds, Acuity Scheduling, Google Calendar | | Payout ledger | Full transaction history (commissions, refunds, adjustments, withdrawals) and balance | | Affiliate links | Generate tracking URLs and QR codes for partner sharing | | Commission rules (admin only) | Define % or flat amounts per booking, with tier conditions — see Payout Ledger & Commissions for usage |
Who can do what
| Role | Can use |
|---|---|
| Site admin (manage_options) | Everything, including the Commission Rules editor |
| Multi-vendor admin / vendor / owner (manage_woocommerce, listing_owner) | Connectors, Payout ledger (own), Affiliate links |
| Staff (hilucy_staff) | View-only on payouts; cannot connect / disconnect services |
Daily glance
Most owners check Partners once or twice a week to:
- Confirm Stripe is healthy and primary
- Confirm Cloudbeds (if connected) is still authorised
- Eyeball the payout ledger balance
- Review any pending entries that need approval
If you see a connector with a red "Re-authentication required" badge, that's the only urgent action — fix it immediately so booking flow doesn't break.
