# How to Add a Sub-Affiliate Under an Existing Partner

In a multi-tier campaign, a sub-affiliate's sales are attributed to their parent partner, so both earn on the commission structure. This guide adds a sub-affiliate under an existing partner.

<Note>
  This feature is only available to affiliate campaigns with 2 or more commission tiers.
</Note>

1. Go to the Affiliate page under **Marketing → Affiliate Manager**.
