How It Works

Yes, absolutely! Whether you are an affiliate or a vendor, having a PayPal account and a Stripe account is mandatory to activate your account on our platform. Indeed, we offer end customers two payment options: Stripe and PayPal. Your earnings will therefore be paid directly to the account corresponding to the payment method chosen by the customer at the time of purchase.

No, there is no minimum payout threshold. We instantly transfer each transaction, regardless of the amount, unless the vendor has set a refund period. In this case, commissions (for affiliates) and revenue (for the vendor) will be paid automatically upon expiration of the refund period.

Affilspark does not use a tracking cookie system. We operate with the "Last Click" attribution model, which means that the commission is automatically awarded to the affiliate whose link generated the last click before the purchase. Example: if a customer clicks on Affiliate A's link, then later clicks on Affiliate B's link before completing their purchase, Affiliate B will receive the commission. This system ensures that the affiliate who directly contributed to the final purchase decision is rewarded. Attribution is done in real-time at the moment of the transaction, without depending on any validity duration or expiration.

The platform allows you to generate unique affiliate links and track performance across different marketing channels directly from your dashboard.

No, each product or service must be created as a separate offer on the platform, with its own specific commission rate. For example, if you offer a sales funnel composed of multiple products (basic training, advanced training, coaching, etc.), each element must be configured individually as a standalone product. This allows you to assign a customized commission rate to each one, based on its value and your business strategy. This approach offers optimal flexibility: you can thus offer different commissions depending on the level of engagement required for each product, while maintaining a clear and transparent structure for your affiliates.

Affilspark enforces a strict anti-fraud and abuse policy to protect the integrity of the platform and all its users. Any user can report behavior that violates the terms of service, law, or good business practices by contacting contact@affilspark.com with available evidence. Each report is carefully reviewed. Depending on the severity of the facts, we take appropriate measures: formal warning, temporary account suspension, or permanent account closure. Additionally, in accordance with our legal obligations, we systematically and promptly transmit to the competent authorities (tax administration, police, justice system, or others) all information relating to users involved in an investigation or judicial request, including identity, transaction history, and banking data.

Yes, you must use two separate accounts because you cannot create both an affiliate and a vendor account with the same email address. You need to use two different email addresses. However, you can use the same PayPal and Stripe credentials for both your affiliate and vendor accounts.

Yes, registration on the platform as an affiliate or vendor is free.

Earnings are distributed transparently between the vendor, affiliate, and platform. Our simple principle: we charge 10% fees on vendor revenue and 5% fees on affiliate commissions, never on the vendor's offer price—unlike most platforms. This keeps us exceptionally attractive for both parties. Real example: A vendor offers a €100 product with a 20% commission rate (€20). After the transaction: Vendor receives: €80 - 10% = €72 Affiliate receives: €20 - 5% = €19 Platform receives: €9 For comparison, on platforms charging 10% on the full vendor offer (€100): Platform: €10 (often + extra fees) Vendor: €72 (if no other fees apply) Affiliate: only €18 The gap seems small for one sale, but across high volumes, it becomes significant—especially for affiliates, and potentially for vendors with additional fees. Calculate your exact earnings based on units sold using our commission calculator at the bottom of the page. Happy selling!

Your earnings (commissions for affiliates) or revenue (for vendors) are automatically transferred to your Stripe or PayPal account based on the payment method chosen by the customer at purchase. You can then freely transfer them to your bank account.

Our referral system allows both affiliates and vendors to build their own network and earn additional revenue from their referrals. For affiliates: The 5% platform fees we normally charge on affiliate commissions are redirected to you when affiliates you refer make sales. Simply share your unique referral link from your dashboard. Anyone who signs up as an affiliate through your link becomes your referral, and you earn 5% on all their future sales. For vendors: Share your referral link from your dashboard. When someone signs up as a vendor through your link, you become their sponsor and earn 50% of our platform fees (i.e., 5%) on all their transactions. This creates a powerful multi-level earning opportunity while maintaining full transparency. (See "How are earnings distributed?" for fee breakdown details.)

No, self-referral is strictly prohibited.** Any attempt to refer yourself constitutes serious fraud and will result in the immediate permanent closure of all related accounts, along with the filing of a criminal complaint for theft to recover any improperly claimed amounts.

Yes, absolutely! You can freely use your affiliate link to purchase any product or service that interests you, whether for personal use, professional needs, or to recommend to your audience. This allows you to enjoy a significant discount on your purchase while maintaining full transparency in tracking your transactions. But Self-Affiliation is prohibited. See our terms and conditions below.

No, no legal structure is required on our end. However, you must strictly comply with your country's regulations. Requirements vary by jurisdiction: Some countries allow personal sales up to a certain threshold Others require micro-entrepreneur status or company formation Each country has its own specific rules It is your responsibility to verify applicable tax and legal obligations in your jurisdiction. Important: Affilspark provides no legal advice and does not issue invoices for transactions. Administrative and accounting management is your sole responsibility. Numerous invoicing templates are available online.
