```javascript
const response = await fetch('/create-checkout-session', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    priceId: 'price_1234',
    insertAffiliate: affiliateId,

### Initialize and Get Stripe Coupon Code with JS SDK

Source: https://docs.insertaffiliate.com/discounts-for-end-users

Initialize the Insert Affiliate SDK with your company code and retrieve the Stripe coupon code. Use 'getStripeCouponCode' or the more explicit 'getOfferCode(\'stripe\')'. Apply the retrieved coupon to your Stripe checkout session if one exists.

```javascript
import { InsertAffiliate } from 'insert-affiliate-js-sdk';

// Initialize the SDK
await InsertAffiliate.initialize('YOUR_COMPANY_CODE');

// Get the Stripe coupon code for the current affiliate
const stripeCoupon = await InsertAffiliate.getStripeCouponCode();

// Or use the more explicit method with platform parameter
const stripeCoupon = await InsertAffiliate.getOfferCode('stripe');

if (stripeCoupon) {
  // Apply the coupon to your Stripe checkout
  // Example using Stripe.js:
  const session = await stripe.checkout.sessions.create({
    // ... your checkout config
    discounts: [{
      coupon: stripeCoupon,
    }],
  });
}
```

```swift
Purchases.shared.getOfferings { offerings, error in
    if let current = offerings?.current {
        // Display current.availablePackages
        // RevenueCat targeting automatically shows the right offering
    }
}
```

--------------------------------

### Daisy Chain Commission - Percentage Example

Source: https://docs.insertaffiliate.com/affiliate-commission

Demonstrates how a parent affiliate earns a percentage of the original sale amount when a child affiliate makes a sale. The parent's commission is independent of the child's earnings.

```text
Original Sale: $100
Child Affiliate Rate: 15%
Child Earns: $15

Daisy Chain Parent Percentage: 10%
Parent Earns: $10 (10% of $100 original sale)

Important: The parent's $10 does NOT come from the child's $15
Both earn their commissions independently from the original transaction

```

--------------------------------

### Daisy Chain Commission - Fixed Amount Example

Source: https://docs.insertaffiliate.com/affiliate-commission

```javascript
const offerings = await Purchases.getOfferings();
if (offerings.current) {
    // Display offerings.current.availablePackages
    // RevenueCat targeting automatically shows the right offering
}
```

### Create Stripe Checkout Session with Affiliate Metadata

Source: https://docs.insertaffiliate.com/stripe-web-transactions

When creating a Stripe Checkout session, include affiliate and company ID metadata in the session, subscription, and payment intent configurations to ensure proper tracking. This example demonstrates passing these values during subscription checkout.

```javascript
const session = await stripe.checkout.sessions.create({
  line_items: [
    {
      price: 'price_1234',
      quantity: 1,
    },
  ],
  mode: 'subscription',
  success_url: 'https://example.com/success',
  cancel_url: 'https://example.com/cancel',
  // 1. Session metadata (available in checkout.session.completed event)
  metadata: {
    insertAffiliate: insertAffiliate || '',
    insertAffiliateCompanyId: insertAffiliateCompanyId || '',
  },
  // 2. Subscription metadata (persists with subscription)
  subscription_data: {
    metadata: {
      insertAffiliate: insertAffiliate || '',
      insertAffiliateCompanyId: insertAffiliateCompanyId || '',
    },
  },
  // 3. Payment Intent metadata (available on each payment)

### Enable Custom Deep Link on Signup

Source: https://docs.insertaffiliate.com/create-affiliate-affiliate-self-signup
