Universal affiliate links
Jaden
Hi, I would like Beacons to come out with universal affiliate links, meaning non-Beacons users can use the link. Stan Store just came out with this feature.
I imagine non-Beacons users would still need to create an affiliate account but they would not need to create a store, create a product as an external link, and then use that product link on another platform. They could just use the universal affiliate link on another platform.

Great to hear your perspective, Jaden! I have a few more questions for you:
- What specific features or functionalities do you expect from the universal affiliate links?
- How do you envision the process for non-Beacons users to create an affiliate account?
- Are there any specific platforms where you would like to use these universal affiliate links?

Hi Jacob Choi-Durham,
- I would expect the direct unique link to be sharable on any site, blog page, or store and link back to my store through my affiliate.
- When they receive an affiliate link in let's say the purchase confirmation email, if they do not have an existing Beacons store account, they could create an affiliate account. They would need to put in paypal information to be paid out but the dashboard would just show which products they have and the links for those products to share in a dashboard style page.
3.I use Beacons for my affiliate product but to better serve my buyers I also have a Stan Store account. It would be nice to have universal links so that customers who use stan store could use the link I send them directly. The affiliate account direction would cut out 4-5 steps from the process of receiving an affiliate product and having it ready to put in someone's store.
