Customer affiliation

-- HikaShop version -- : 2.6.1

Hi!

I wasn't too sure where to ask the question, so please be gentle if I made a placement mistake

New project and new requirements, I am now being asked to create a shop where customer access is dependent of a physical (as in "I met you, here is the site where you need to log in") recommendation and the need to identify customers based on the origin of their coming.
My idea at this stage is to provide a unique ID per people who send customers and be able to calculate commissions based on this ID.
Commission can be calculated outside of Hikashop as long as we can make an export with purchases per ID.

Is this something available, and if not, is there a better way to do that?

Thank you.

Thank you very much, I am checking now

Hi again!

Same project, new requirements. Now the client wants something slightly different in the sense that the "website visiting customer" gets to visually select his reseller and then buy from him.(every reseller sells the same products).
There is still the issue of managing ratio per reseller but if we can track sales by resellers then it's just a spreadsheet calculation.
How would Hikashop do with the above? What options are needed?

Thank you.

Great, thank you for the prompt reply.

so 10 days later and some changes. Now the client would like his customers to have a login per reseller and then identify themselves to make the purchase. For example
1. you go to the website and it is password protected
2. you log in with a user/pass your reseller has given you
3. in return this assigns you to this reseller
4. then you can browser, register and purchase normally
5. as you were initially identified to this reseller your purchase will be attributed to this reseller

Is this easily implemented and if not, what direction can I take?
Thank you.

Oh and on top of that, can some merchants have their own merchants, meaning they also get a commission on their merchants sales?
Thank you.
