How to Customize AffiliateSale Emails

Affiliate Sale emails are automatically sent to affiliates to inform them that a consumer they referred has signed up on the merchant’s website.

CCBill sends an additional email to the merchant’s registered email address to inform them that an affiliate has successfully referred a sale.
