The rules of the SocialSkinz affiliate program. Joining or sharing your link means you agree to these.
What you earn
You earn a commission on the product value (after any discount, excluding shipping and tax) of every eligible order placed through your referral link. Your current rate and tier are always shown in your dashboard.
How a sale is credited to you
When someone clicks your link, we tag their visit for 90 days. If they buy within that window, the sale is credited to you. Your commission is calculated on what the customer actually paid.
When you get paid — the clearing period
Commission is earned when an order is placed, but only becomes payable after a hold period: 15 days after that order ships, once the return window has closed with no refund. Until then it shows as "pending" in your dashboard, then moves to "available."
Returns and refunds
If a referred order is returned, refunded, cancelled, or charged back, the commission on it is reversed. If a refund occurs after payout, the reversed amount is deducted from your next payout.
Getting your money
Set a payout method in your dashboard. Available (cleared) earnings are paid out from there; pending earnings are not yet payable.
What's not allowed
- Buying through your own link for your own orders (self-referral).
- Bidding on SocialSkinz brand terms in paid search, or posing as an official SocialSkinz account.
- Posting your code on coupon/deal aggregator sites, or spamming it.
- False, misleading, or exaggerated claims about the products.
- Failing to disclose that you earn a commission — see our Affiliate Disclosure.
Breaking these can forfeit unpaid commission and end your participation.
Taxes
You're responsible for taxes on what you earn. If you're paid via Stripe and cross the U.S. reporting threshold, Stripe may issue you the appropriate tax form.
Changes and ending the program
We may update these terms, adjust rates, or end the program with reasonable notice. Already-cleared commission you've earned will still be paid. You can leave anytime.
