## Manage Programs

The **Manage Programs** setting allows you to enable or disable referral and affiliate programs globally. When disabled, the selected program will no longer be active for participants.

### **Referral**

Toggle this option to enable or disable the referral program in your store. When disabled, customers can no longer refer others or earn rewards, and the reward setup will pause.

### **Affiliate**

You can enable or disable the affiliate program as needed. Disabling this option will prevent affiliates from promoting and earning commissions.
