Commission Tracking
What is my commission on a sale?
The commission is calculated on a per item basis. Commission is 25% for all sales over $90.00. The commission on sales $89.99 down to $5.00 is always 20%. And commission on sales $4.95 and under is approximately $0.25.
How do I keep track of how many people buy products from my site?
After you sign up as an affiliate we will assign you a login name and password. You can log in at anytime and check how many people visited our site and how many of those people bought something. You can also check your commission payout for the current month.
How often do I get paid?
The payment schedule is once a month. On the first Monday of the month we send out commission checks to all affiliates.
Will I get a check every month?
The minimum commission payout amount is $10. If you do not make more than $10 in a month, your total will role over to the next month until it reaches $10.
How are international affiliates paid?
Our international affiliates have two options for payment. First, we send them a normal check like other affiliates through the mail in American dollars. Second, we pay them through a PayPal account. Most international affiliates use the PayPal option, which we highly encourage.

Set Up
How do I access my custom banners and links?
After you are signed up and approved as an affiliate, use your username and password to login to your affiliate account. Once you are logged in, click on "Links and Tools", in the top menu bar. On this page you will find your custom URL, as well your custom banners and links.
Promotion
What is the difference between a click and a lead?
A click is generated when a visitor clicks on an affiliate link and goes to our homepage. A lead is created when a visitor, who is already on our site, signs up for the free newsletter. The lead can, and often does, turn into a sale.
