Earn Extra Cash with our high commission affiliate program!
Dear affiliate-to-be,
Thank you for your interests in reselling our software. We are partnered with ShareIt.com,
one of the most robust e-commerce service companies specialized in software and
shareware sales and distribution, to present to you a very robust and profit making
affiliate program.
With our affiliate program, everything is automated. You get a control panel to
track how many sales your web site has generated, your monthly payment, and you
can even customize the look and feel of the order form to match your site!
What is more important is that you can earn a 20% commission
on sales (297 x 0.2 = 59.4 USD) made through links from
your site. You can direct your visitors to a special order form to purchase our
software, or you can direct your visitors to our website through a special URL and
have a cookie created automatically on their browsers, so that when they purchase
the software, you receive the commission you deserve!
Please note that in order to become an affiliate and start earning
commissions, you need to have a valid, working, and active web site (URL).
ShareIt.com screens each applicant for us and will deny all applicants without a
valid, working, and active web site. By "active" I mean that your website
is not something that shows "under construction", or "this
is a temporary place holder for...." that sort of thing.
It is very easy to sign up as an affiliate. In 10 min., you can start making money
from our new, fully automated, and robust affiliate program!
If you have specific questions (I bet you have some in mind), please take a look
at the following general FAQ's provided by ShareIt.com (not specific to ASPPlayground.NET).
In the following FAQ's, "the Publisher" refers to ASPPlayground.NET (us,
the software company), and "the Affiliate" refers to those who sign up
as affiliates (you). Pay attention to bolded texts in red in the answers below,
which are information specific to ASPPlayground.NET.
- I signed up - what happens next?
Next, share-it! reviews the information of each newly registered Affiliate and then
informs the Publisher. Because the Publisher can either accept a partnership with
an Affiliate right away or decide to review the Affiliate's information, there may
be a slight delay until you are activated as an Affiliate. The length of this delay
depends on how often the Publisher reviews Affiliate information.
ASPPlayground.NET checks emails every weekday so you won't experience long delays.
In any event, we will keep you informed via e-mail as to the status of your request.
Once you have registered and been activated, you will receive your login data for
the Affiliate Control Panel. The Control Panel contains detailed information about
your partnerships and products. After your account is activated by a particular
Publisher, you may then embed links on your Web site and begin to market these products.
In the "Products" section of the Control Panel, you can generate links
to particular products or request authorization from the Software Publisher to market
other products.
Once you receive authorization from the Publisher, you can initiate two types of
sales:
- You can place a direct link to the Publisher's order form. Once
you have decided which products you would like to market, use the Link Generator
in the Control Panel (in the "Products" section) to activate the links
from the product pages to the sales system. These links automatically contain your
Affiliate ID, thereby ensuring that your sales are recorded. Then these links can
then be embedded into your Web site.
- Place a link to the Publisher's Web site. While this method may not lead directly
to sales, it does set a cookie on the visitor's computer that detects whether the
visitor becomes attentive to the Web site because of you. In this way, you receive
your commission in the case of a sale. To place this type of link, use the Link
Generator in the Control Panel.
- How can you make sure that all of my referrals are accounted for?
There are two methods to track your sales: You can choose to rely on the affiliate
ID, which is contained in your unique order link, or you can have us place a cookie
on the user's machine with your affiliate ID stored in it. If the user purchases
the software at a later time, the cookie will be recognized and the sale assigned
to you.
- When will I get paid my commission?
share-it! sends out Payment Reports to affiliates on the 8th of the each month for
the previous month's sales.
Payment is then made on the 15th for the previous month's earnings, provided you
reach the minimum payment amount of 100 EUR/USD or 70 GBP in commission earnings.
- How much commission will I receive?
The commission rate for each affiliate will be set by the software publishers themselves.
They will indicate their standard commission on their website, or you can see the
default commission next to the product name in the product selection list we provide
in the Control Panel. Our affiliate program offers 20%
sales commission, 59.4 USD.
You will be informed of any changes in commission by e-mail that occur after activation
by a publisher.
- Which payment methods and currencies are available for me to receive my payments?
You can receive payments either by check or wire transfer, in USD, EUR or GBP. You
can set your preferred payment method in the Control Panel under "Personal
Data".
- I haven't received my payment for last month's sales, what do I do?
There are many reasons that your payment may have not arrived. If you have pre-set
a transfer limit and this limit has not been reached, or your balance has not exceeded
our lower limit (see question above), the payment will be held until the limit is
reached.
If you did not define a limit for your payment, or believe your payment may have
been held in error, please contact us at affiliates@shareit.com.
Please be sure to give wire transfers ample time to post to your account!
- Are there any costs participating as an affiliate?
There are no monthly or fixed costs to you for participating in share-it!'s affiliate
program.
- What information will I receive on my sales?
You have access to sales reports in the Affiliate Control Panel, where you can view
your sales and earnings by date. share-it! does not provide the end-user customer's
data to you as this remains the property of the publisher of the software.
- How should I promote the products?
You can place the referral links anywhere on your website. It is typically a good
idea to place them with complementing products or related topics to help generate
referrals. Since you have a lot of flexibility with the links, you can also try
out different locations of the links on your website to gauge their effectiveness.
- How can I terminate a partnership with a software author / publisher?
In your Affiliate Control Panel, you can display all your partnerships in the section
"Products". Simply filter by "Partnership exists". For each
partnership, you will find a button "Terminate partnership". Then simply
remove the links from your website after you submitted your termination request.
- Can I adapt the order process to the "look & feel" of my own website?
Yes, you can edit your styles in the Affiliate Control Panel, where you can set
a default style for the order process with the share-it! Style Editor.
Please note that the software license governs all aspects of the affiliate program
above. You can find the up-to-date license agreement here.
