Create an Affiliate Program with Svelte

Step-by-step guide to integrating affiliate tracking in your Svelte application

Svelte is a modern JavaScript framework that compiles your code to highly efficient vanilla JavaScript. If you're looking to monetize your Svelte app through an affiliate program, you've come to the right place.

This comprehensive guide will walk you through everything you need to know about setting up an affiliate program with Svelte, from initial setup to tracking conversions using Svelte stores and SvelteKit server routes.

Whether you're building a single-page application with Svelte or a full-stack app with SvelteKit, an affiliate program can help you grow your user base and increase revenue.

Follow these steps to get your affiliate program up and running in Svelte:

1

Install AffiliateBase SDK

Add the AffiliateBase package to your Svelte project using npm or yarn.
bash
npm install @affiliatebase/sdk
2

Create Svelte Store

Create a Svelte store to manage affiliate tracking throughout your app.
typescript
// stores/affiliate.ts
import { writable } from 'svelte/store';
import { AffiliateBase } from '@affiliatebase/sdk';

const affiliate = new AffiliateBase({
  apiKey: import.meta.env.VITE_AFFILIATEBASE_API_KEY,
});

export const affiliateStore = writable(affiliate);

export const trackConversion = async (data: {
  affiliateId?: string;
  amount: number;
  type: string;
}) => {
  await affiliate.trackConversion(data);
};
3

Create SvelteKit API Route

If using SvelteKit, create a server route for secure tracking.
typescript
// src/routes/api/affiliate/track/+server.ts
import { json } from '@sveltejs/kit';
import { AffiliateBase } from '@affiliatebase/sdk';
import type { RequestHandler } from './$types';

export const POST: RequestHandler = async ({ request }) => {
  const body = await request.json();
  const affiliate = new AffiliateBase({
    apiKey: process.env.AFFILIATEBASE_API_KEY,
  });
  
  await affiliate.trackConversion(body);
  
  return json({ success: true });
};
4

Track Conversions in Components

Use the store in your Svelte components to track conversions.
svelte
<!-- components/CheckoutButton.svelte -->
<script>
  import { trackConversion } from '../stores/affiliate';
  
  const handleCheckout = async () => {
    await trackConversion({
      type: 'purchase',
      amount: 99.99,
    });
    // Your checkout logic
  };
</script>

<button on:click={handleCheckout}>Checkout</button>
