Each of the methods described below offers a unique approach to referring your visitors suited to your specific promotional needs.
Referral Code
The traditional affiliate method for linking website visitors to an affiliate page is through the use of an affiliate referral code.
Your affiliate account is assigned a unique referral code when its created. You can append this code to the end of any URL pointed to our website to track your visitor.
This type of code can be used to link to use from content, images, sidebars, and footers on your website. It can also be used when posting on your social media pages or in the descriptions of your videos on streaming platforms like Youtube, Twitch, Tik Tok, Instagram, or Rumble.
To use your unique referral code you’ll first need to login to your affiliate account dashboard. Visit the Affiliate URLs area to find your custom URL. You’ll see a URL like this:
You can copy this link and use it across your website, social media profiles, or anywhere you can post a hyperlink.
Notice the “?ref=1” at the end of the URL. In this example, the number “1” is the unique affiliate code for the account.
You can append ?ref=1 to the end of any URL pointing to our website.
Here is an example of how you can link to Cannabiva’s Full Spectrum CBD Oil page using this method:
https://www.cannabiva.com/product-category/full-spectrum-cbd-oil/?ref=1
Using ?ref=YOURUNIQUECODE at the end of any www.Cannabiva.com URL link will allow you to track every visitor click and you’ll receive a referral commission when that visitor purchases an item.

Custom Slugs
Custom slugs are a unique way to use your referral URL to link visitors to our website and products.
Rather than using the unique ID Code issued to your affiliate account during the activation process, you can replace your affiliate code number with anything, including words or a series of letters or numbers.
For example, instead of using https://www.cannabiva.com/?ref=1 to link anchor text or a banner to our website, you may want to use the word “cbdinfo”.
To set up your custom slug, visit your affiliate account Settings Page as shown in the screenshot below. Then, enter your preferred slug and click “Save custom slug.”
Once you’ve created your slug, you can view it in the Affiliate URLs area of your dashboard:
You can now create a unique referral link to any page of our website using either your referral code or your custom slug.
Here is an example of how you can link to Cannabiva’s homepage using this method:
https://www.cannabiva.com/?ref=cbdinfo
Here is an example of how you can link to the Broad Spectrum CBD Oil page (or any other page on our website) using this method:
https://www.cannabiva.com/product-category/broad-spectrum-cbd-oil/?ref=cbdinfo
Visitors who arrive at our website by clicking a link tagged with your unique slug will be counted under your affiliate account.
