I have my affiliate set up with an email address (1) and set to receive system emails in **Joomla User Management**. In Hikashop > Affiliates > Partners > User management he has email address (1) and also another email address in the **Payment e-mail address** field - this is a PayPal sandbox a/c address. Is it OK to have separate email address like this - or do they need to be the same? I am finding that although Affiliate sales are being tracked, nothing is being paid to the affiliate and he is not receiving any notifications to his email address (1) Can you please help me to get this working?

I don't think that there is specific documentation about how to pay the affiliates.

However, the lack of documentations sometimes drives me to despair - I know it is all possible but I just can't find how to do it. You are right, it has many features now, and many possible scenarios are covered - such the may ways Shipping tax can be calculated for example. But I think just documenting what each data field does on each section of the application is not enough now. There needs to be documentation/tutorials that link the sections required to perform common tasks - for example: manual shipping with shipping zones and shipping tax, or the process of creating an affiliate, creating banners, tracking sales and paying commission. May need to hire someone to start adding this type of documentation, it would be a huge boost to the product and it will save users many hours of finding how to configure one area and then finding things are not working because there is another area that needs to be configured &etc. Saying all this, I will still champion Hikashop and the amazing support team.

We don't use a PayPal account on our webshop because of the costs. But we do want to use paypal for the payment for Affliliates. Qustion: Which of the 5 PaPpal payment methods should we use and how can we use it on the back-end and keep it hidden from payments in the webshop on the frontend? Hope to here from you.
