General Program Information

• What is affiliate marketing?

An affiliate program is a revenue sharing program where the affiliate (that is you!) drives traffic to a merchant's website (that is us!) in exchange for referral commissions. When a visitor to your site, social media accounts or email list clicks on the affiliate link to our site and completes a purchase, you get a commission on any products they buy!

We have partnered with AWINto provide our affiliates with tracking, reporting and prompt monthly payments.

Once you sign up for and are accepted to our program, you will be taken to the AWIN site where you will create your own personal and secure account. Here you can log in at any time to get our banners and links, find out about commissions you earned and even learn about how many impressions and clicks each of your links has received.

Direct deposit or check payment methods cannot be enabled for publishers whose accounts are not set up in USD.

Publishers are paid out around the 1st and 15th of each month, as long as they have accrued at least $25 in locked commission. Due to processing times, we suggest waiting at least a week after your payment was issued. If you still have not received your payment by that point, we can reissue your payment for you.
