Frequently Asked Questions

  1. What is an affiliate program? How does it work?     top
    An affiliate program is a revenue sharing program where the affiliate (that's you!) drives traffic to a merchant's web site (that's us!) in exchange for referral commissions. When a visitor to your site clicks on the affiliate link to our site and completes a purchase, you get a commission on every item they buy!

    We have partnered with Commission Junction to provide our affiliates with tracking, reporting, prompt monthly payments, and the flexibility of being an affiliate for any of Commission Junction's other merchants.

    Once you sign up for and are accepted to our program, you will be taken to the Commission Junction 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 earned and even learn about how many impressions each of your links has received.
  2. How do I get started?     top
    • Step 1: Sign up! If you are already a Commission Junction publisher, click here to become a CoutureCandy affiliate!
    • Step 2: We manually review all applications within 3 business days. Once your application is approved, we will send you setup instructions as well as banners and text links that you can put on your web site.
    • Step 3: Collect your commissions.
  3. Who can participate?     top
    Just about anybody! Whether you run a large commercial web site, a small personal blog, a non-profit site, or anything in between you are welcome to apply to join the program. We also welcome owners of opt-in e-mail newsletters. All applications are manually reviewed, and we reserve the right to refuse any application, especially if the site or e-mail list contains objectionable material, participates in unsolicited e-mailing, is a "parasite", or if it violates the Commission Junction Publisher Service Agreement.
  4. Does it cost anything to participate?     top
    No! As long as you are an active affiliate, all you need to do is keep linking and collect your commissions.
  5. How are sales tracked from my site?     top
    Once your application is accepted, you will be given a unique affiliate ID.

    Commission Junction records all transactions from your site in real time, meaning that all impressions, links, and sales are tracked instantly. The Commission Junction Members Area has all of the reports and tracking resources you will need to see how you are doing. You can use these reports to find out which of your links are performing the best and to optimize your site for maximum sales.
  6. How much will I earn? How and when do I get paid?     top
    Earn up to 16.5% for anyone who earns over $1500 in commissions in a given month. Otherwise commission payouts are set at 15%.

    Commission Junction pays affiliates monthly and when the commission balance is $25 or more. Please refer to the Commission Junction Publisher Service Agreement for more information.
  7. Who is Commission Junction and why is CoutureCandy using their service?     top
    CoutureCandy has teamed with Commission Junction, a leader in third-party affiliate marketing programs to handle our affiliate program. They will be able to provide affiliates with trusted third-party tracking, real-time reporting, and monthly commission checks. For more information about Commission Junction, and learn more about affiliate marketing, you can read the Commission Junction FAQ.
  8. What is a parasite? What is your policy regarding parasites?     top
    The term "parasite" refers to technology (including browser plug ins, helpers, toolbars, popups, etc.) that intercepts and changes an affiliate's link. This technology is also known as "unsolicited commercial software" and is often found in Adware and Spyware software. Parasite activity essentially "hijacks" the affiliates link and the affiliate commission gets redirected to the parasite, instead of the affiliate who rightfully earned it. This type of software is normally installed unknowingly, often without the end user's consent. For an excellent description of parasite software, how it gets installed, and how to remove it, visit Doxdesk.com.

    We are committed to preventing any parasites from becoming part of our program. If we determine that any of our affiliates are parasites, they will immediately be inactivated and banned from the program. Please e-mail us if you suspect that one of our affiliates may be a parasite.
