Below is a list of FAQs regarding our Affiliate Program Payment and Earnings:
1. How will I know that orders came through my blog or website?
The affiliate links you generate via the Affiliate Area track you as having referred the customer and the Rainmaker platform places a 30-day cookie on each visitors computer, so if a visitor you refer to us doesn’t purchase immediately, but then returns within 30 days, you will still receive the commission for any products they purchase (provided they have not cleared cookies from their browser in the meantime, which is unfortunately out of our control).
2. How much money will I earn through your affiliate program?
Our current commission rate is 50% of the purchase price of our products. This may change in the future, but the commission rate you have when you sign up is the one you will keep for the time of your Affiliate arrangement with us. Please note however that commission is applied to the first purchase only. In general, our products are charged with a one time payment, but The Marketing Untangled Training is also available for a split payment, for which you would only get a commission on the first payment. We therefore recommend you promote the Training at the one time full price. This is a technical limitation of our platform which unfortunately we can not do anything about at this time. Note also that PayPal transaction fees will be deducted from your commission when paid into your PayPal account.
3. How do I know how much commission I have earned?
You can log into the Affiliate Area at any time for access to real time reporting which provides up-to-the-minute information about the commissions you have earned.
4. When will I receive my Affiliate commissions?
All affiliate payments are processed at the end of the month and payments will be sent to you via PayPal no later than by the 20th each month for the previous month’s sales.
5. Can I earn commissions on my own purchases?
As a general rule, Affiliates are not eligible for commissions on purchases made through your own affiliate link.
