Reading your merchant dashboard โ€” what every metric means

8 min read

Six big numbers, one fee invoice, and a handful of operational widgets. Here's what each one tells you and what to do when it moves.

Top row: the six numbers

GMV (this month) โ€” gross merchandise value attributed via PPToGo this month. The number you care about for revenue impact.

Conversions โ€” count of orders attributed via tracking links. Different from GMV because of order size variance.

Active creators โ€” unique creators with at least one conversion in the trailing 30 days.

Average commission rate โ€” weighted average of the commission rate across your conversions. Will drift if you run promo campaigns.

Refund rate (30 days) โ€” % of attributed orders refunded. Anything above 8% triggers a Trust & Safety review.

Outstanding balance โ€” what you'll owe on the next invoice. Settles monthly.

Campaign performance card

Each campaign shows: applications received, approved creators, conversions, GMV, and effective CAC (cost per acquisition = commission paid / new buyers).

Sort by GMV to find your top campaigns. Sort by CAC to find the cheapest.

If a campaign has high applications but low conversions, the offer probably isn't competitive โ€” try bumping commission rate or adding a promo.

Refunds vs chargebacks

Refunds and chargebacks are treated differently per our Agent & Creator Terms (ยง3.1, ยง3.2). Normal refunds โ€” you cancelling an order, customer returning a product โ€” don't reverse the creator's accrued commission. The creator already did the promotional work, so we treat the credit as earned regardless of merchant-side reversal.

Chargebacks โ€” where the customer disputes the charge via their bank and wins โ€” do claw back the commission from the creator's pending balance, because the underlying merchant payment is reversed by the card network. Chargeback handling is shipping in a P1 update; until then, chargeback-flagged conversions are logged for manual review.

If we detect fraud patterns (e.g. self-purchase clusters), we'll flag conversions before payout. You'll see a 'review' status on those conversions for ~48 hours while we verify.

Billing & invoices

Invoices generate on the 1st of each month covering all 'paid' conversions from the previous calendar month. Auto-charged on your saved payment method.

You can download CSV of every conversion (with creator handle, order ID, amount, commission, platform fee) from the Billing โ†’ Statements section.
