Outlink enables Shopify stores to set up links to external / affiliate products.
External / Affiliate Product
An example of this would be a product that you link to on Amazon and you receive a commission when your user purchases after clicking that link. They are a great way to make some extra income on your site.
Replace Add to Cart with External Link
Regular products on Shopify can be converted to affiliate products by replacing the ‘Add to Cart’ button with a link button that redirects the user to the affiliate product page.
Setting Up External Links with Outlink
1 – Outlink allows you to specify an external URL for any product on your store. This will be the affiliate link that leads the customer directly to the outside site. You can enable/disable the external link anytime with a click of a button.
2 – You can also specify the text to be displayed on the external link button. So you are not confusing or surprising your customers, you can have the button say something like “Buy On eBay”. That way they know what is going to happen and you are not misleading them.
With Outlink you can add one affiliate product or create an entire affiliate site with thousands of products. You can also sell digital products – apps, music, files, data, software, services, coupons, etc.
