Getting started on Awin: Payment reporting

Written by 3 minute read

In the final installment of our new publisher training series, we review the payment reports availble to affiliates in the Awin interface. 

Transactions report

The Transactions report offers a complete overview of all transactions that pass through your account.

To run this report:

  • Select the time period. You can either use one of the preset date ranges in the Period filter, or select Custom and set your own date range using the From and To filters below
  • Choose whether you want the date range you selected to be based on Transaction Date, Validation Date, or Amendment Date
  • Select the promotional region
  • Use the Payment Status filter to select between Uncleared- Waiting for Advertiser to pay Awin, Cleared- Waiting for Awin to pay publisher, Cleared & Uncleared, Paid to publisher, or All
  • Use the Transaction Status filter to select between Pending, Pending and Approved, Approved, Approved and Declined, Declined, Bonus, or All
  • If you would like to see only the performance of a specific advertiser, use the Advertiser filter to do so.  If you do not change this filter, the report will show transactions from each advertiser you are joined to
  • You can use the Search for field to find a specific value in one of the following columns: Sale Amount, Commission, IP Address, Click Reference, Order Reference, Transaction ID, or Payment ID
  • Click the Generate Report button to refresh the data

Below the filters, you will see an in depth look at each transaction. The columns include valuable information like click time, transaction date, validation date, payment progress, device used, click reference, and referring URL.

You can check the status of a transaction by hovering over the three bars in the Payment Progress column. The first dot shows if the transaction is pending, approved, or declined; the second dot shows if the payment is cleared or uncleared; the third dot notes if you have been paid. If payment has already been issued, you will also see the payment ID here. Hover over the icon in the Device column to view the click device and transaction device.

At the bottom of the page, you will see the grand totals broken down by transactions status. You can export this data as either an Excel or CSV file by hovering over the Options button.

Payment report

The Payment report details all payments received and broken down into self-billing invoices. You can choose between the Overview and History reports.

Overview shows your next payment amount, the total value of your confirmed commissions, the next day you will be paid, how frequently you are paid, and the method in which you receive payment. This is shown for each currency you earn commission in.

Unpaid Commissions offers a pre-filtered transactions report that displays all approved transactions with unpaid commissions in the lifetime of your publisher account.

You can access the Payment History report by clicking Payment History in the Overview report. This shows the processing date, period, payment method, and amount for every payment you have received. If you click the graph icon in the Action(s) column, it will take you to a pre-filtered transactions report that shows every transaction included in that particular payment. If you click the paper icon, the report will export to Excel.
