What are
the rules and guildelines?
You may
NOT purchase patterns through your own affiliate link.- When
using an affiliate link always disclose it is an affiliate link.
- Do not
use any affiliate links within the Heidiandfinn sewing patterns FB Group. - Please
do not use any other photos but your own when linking your affiliate link. You
may not use other testers or any Heidiandfinn website photos with your
affiliate link. (with the exception of your personal branded promo photos that
are supplied to you via the testing group) you MUST sew up your pattern and
share with your OWN pictures.
- You may however use a cover
photo in combination with your own photos for article/blog post
advertising (ex. My favorite doll patterns). - Please do not share an affiliate
link on its own without your own picture for context or link to a blog
with affiliate links (ex. answering pattern request questions with nothing
but an affiliate link).
- If you
are running a sew-a-long or another event where Heidiandfinn has given you an
exclusive coupon code for your group, please don’t use an affiliate links on
top of the discount. - Affiliate
rate is 10% of the total purchase bought through the clicked link. (If they
checkout with a free pattern you will see that referral, but have a zero
balance for that transaction). - If you
do not adhere to the rules above, your affiliate privileges and payments will
be stopped and blocked immediately.
When will
I receive my payment?
Affiliate
payments are paid through PayPal at the 1st week of every month for the
previous month’s earnings. (Example: February 1st-February 28th earnings will
be paid during the first week of March.
- Commissions are paid at 10%*.
If your referred customer uses a coupon or discount, you will be credited
10% of the discounted total. (*commissions are evaluated on a monthly basis, affiliates with lots
of activity/excellent performance will be eligible for an increased
commission percentage)
- Payments will only be made
when the total is at least $20. For example, if your affiliate total for
March is $18 you will not receive a payment for March. Instead that amount
will be rolled forward until you do reach $20. So if your affiliate total
for April is $5 then you will receive a payment of $23 (March + April). - Each payout will come with a coupon code for a FREE Heidiandfinn pattern of your choice (bundles not included)
- Payments will only be made
when the total is at least $20. For example, if your affiliate total for
March is $18 you will not receive a payment for March. Instead that amount
