An affiliate becomes a Master Affiliate (also referred to as a Parent Affiliate or Referrer) only when they are subscribed to the Sub-Affiliate Channel.
An affiliate must be subscribed to the Sub-Affiliate Channel to act as a Master Affiliate
This determines whether the affiliate is eligible to refer other affiliates
The Sub-Affiliate Channel can be managed in:
Admin > Affiliate Dashboard > Channels

Operators can configure Master Affiliate eligibility in one of the following ways:

• Automatic assignment at registration

Affiliates are automatically subscribed to the Sub-Affiliate Channel upon registration, enabling Master Affiliate capability from the start.

• Manual assignment by an administrator

An operator can manually subscribe an existing affiliate to the Sub-Affiliate Channel after account review, enabling Master Affiliate functionality later.
Note: Only affiliates subscribed to the Sub-Affiliate Channel can refer other affiliates and participate in the Master/Sub-Affiliate structure.
