How much is my commission?
Qualifying sales earn a commission of the "net sale." Your net sales are calculated by subtracting shipping, promos, tax and returns or chargebacks from the total sales amount.

How soon after a visitor clicks on the link on my page must they make a purchase for me to earn a commission?
You will earn a commission for up to 30 days after a person visits your site, clicks on our link, then makes a purchase on our store. In other words, if a person clicks on our link from your site and comes to our store, but does not make a purchase at that time, you may still earn a commission if that person returns to our store within 30 days and makes a qualifying purchase. If a person makes more than one purchase from our store within those 30 days, you will earn a commission on each sale!

When will I not earn a commission?
You would not earn a commission if the person clicks on the link of another one of our affiliates between the time they clicked on our link on your site and the time they made the purchase. You also would not earn a commission if the visitor turned off or otherwise disabled the "cookie" set when they clicked on the link from your site to our site.

When are my commissions paid?
Payments are made by the 15th day of the month following the end of a calendar quarter. Payments are made only when your credit due exceeds $20. If you balance for the month is less than $20, your commissions will accumulate and be added with the next month's commissions.

When do I start earning commissions?
Immediately. You start earning commission as soon as your links are up and the first sale is made through these links.
