Is there a way to only pay commission for client signup to an affiliate for e.g. 1 year then stop for that signup?
Since it is not the affiliate that is keeping the client but the service and support provided by us

Yes. You can configure the affiliate system to provide commission on a one time basis. For this, you just need to enable "Affiliate Pay Amount" as One Time Payout for all products (Edit Product -> Other tab). 

Hope it helps.

Onetime is unfortunately not the same as a year which equals 12 monthly commission payments.
And you can't pay a year's commission before the person was a client for a month and then the client cancels or stops paying.

that was previously requested by a feature request 4 years ago - but it only got two votes and was therefore never implemented...

At the moment affiliate commission can either be paid as one time or recurring indefinitely. It would be great to be able to specify how long we would like the recurring commissions to last for Eg 12 months.

So if an affiliate signs up 2 clients, the affiliate would get 12 months of recurring commission from each of those clients, and then the commissions would stop from those 2 clients

... even if you added your vote to it, I don't think that's going to make any difference.

you could check in Marketplace for third-party solutions - e.g I know Kian's Commissions Manager addon can terminate recurring commission after x months, but I don't know if it still works with the latest versions of WHMCS.

I suppose ultimately it could be solved by a hook, running via the cron, that terminates the link between the product and the affiliate after x months..
