The plugin and the widget​

Both are installed on the partner's website, not in this panel. Every link out of them carries the owner's affiliate code, so the sign-up and the bookings that follow are credited to that code.

Questions​

Does this page change any setting? No. It only explains and links.

Where are coupons created? In the Coupon Catalogue. Customers buy them there with points, and Issued Coupons only lists them.

Who pays for a coupon? Your Marketing Wallet, when the customer uses it. Buying it with points costs you nothing.
