Two fixes that remove the most volume

highest leverage

Two defects on our side generate a large share of the hardest tickets. Neither is answerable by a macro. Fix them once and the future volume drops.

1

Tipalti forces the wrong tax form

Non-US affiliates (Spain, UK, India, Switzerland) are pushed to Form 8233 instead of W-8BEN, causing 30% withholding or a hard payout block. 17 of the 37 tax tickets are this exact issue. One income-type / payee-classification setting in the Tipalti admin. Fix it once and the whole cluster plus several stuck payouts clear. Owner: Ops / Bea.

Coupon "does not exist" at checkout

An activated affiliate code throws coupon cannot be applied — does not exist at checkout: an activation → WooCommerce sync gap. We already have audit-activation-failures.py for exactly this. Fix the sync, then add self-serve code creation so the "make me a code" volume drops too. Owner: Brycen / dev.
