– The customer’s web browser does not accept “cookies”. The affiliate feature can only work if a browser accepts cookies. (Unless you are using a exclusive affiliate referral coupon).
– The sale was refunded – when that happens affiliate commission is refunded as well.
– The customer did not buy the product within 365 days of clicking the affiliate link. Our cookies expire after 365 days.
– The customer clicked a different affiliate’s link after they clicked yours, and bought the product. We follow the “Last Click” model. That means, the last affiliate link, clicking on which the customer has made the sale, will be recorded in the system.
To ensure eligibility for commission payments, it is mandatory for affiliates to have their referral sources verified. Affiliates can accomplish this by providing the sources that generate their affiliate payments. Failure to respond to the affiliate referral source verification email will result in the affiliate being ineligible to receive commissions for any referrals generated during that particular period. We will send two emails to the affiliate: the initial referral source verification email and a follow-up email. If the affiliate fails to respond to either email within 7 days, their future commissions may not be generated, and any existing commissions may be forfeited.
Please note that we may request verification of the sources used to promote our products at any time. If it is determined that legitimate evidence cannot be provided, Pabbly reserves the right to immediately terminate your participation in the Pabbly Affiliate Program. In such a case, you will not receive any pending payments or future payments for purchases made by your referrals.
Affiliate commissions will be automatically voided if they remain unclaimed. Additionally, affiliate commissions will be voided if the affiliate engages in any fraudulent activity or fails to provide proper evidence of the referral source for the generated commission.
For an affiliate to receive his earned commission, the following criteria must be fulfilled:
– The referred sale must have completed the 60days payout period.
– The total commission must cross the minimum payout amount, i.e. $50.
The verification process for affiliates will be based on the following situations:
– An affiliate will also be considered verified if their referral source has been successfully verified.
– To qualify as a verified referral source, proper evidence must be shared during the verification process.
– Referral sources obtained through word-of-mouth publically or personal customer referrals will be considered verified only when one of the following conditions is met:
• The affiliate provides screenshots or links that support the referral source.
• The customer being referred confirms that the affiliate referred them.
• We reserver the right to contact the affiliate anytime to verify the referral source.
Affiliates discovered engaging in activities that violate our affiliate policy will face account suspension. Any affiliates found employing prohibited methods, such as brand bidding or running unauthorized advertisements, will be blocked.
The following activities are strictly forbidden and may lead to immediate account suspension. Please note that once an affiliate’s account is suspended, it cannot be reopened under any circumstances and all the commission associated with that account will also be voided.
We may modify any of the terms and conditions in this document at any time at our sole discretion. In such an event, you will be notified by email. If any modification is unacceptable to you, your only option is to end the Affiliate Program. Your continued participation in the Pabbly Affiliate Program will indicate your agreement to the changes.
You will get a 30% recurring commission on every sale you bring to us (Applicable to all recurring plans). For a one-time or lifetime plan, you will get a flat 20% commission.
For an affiliate to receive his earned commission, the following criteria must be fulfilled :
a) The referred sale must have completed the 60 days payout period to be added to the payout report.
b) The total affiliate commission must cross the minimum payment amount of $50.
Once both the above conditions are met, the commission will be included in the monthly payout report which is generated on the 15th of every month. Once the payout report is generated we take anywhere between 1-2 weeks to disburse the funds.
Example: If an affiliate refers a customer on January 7th. There will be a waiting period of 60 days before the same customer will be added to the payout report. The 60 days waiting period allows us to cover the refunds or any payment disputes that happen during that period. So, your referred sales from January 7th will be eligible for the commission on 7th March once the 60 days waiting period is completed. Since the payout report is generated on the 15th of every month. The sales commission will be added to the subsequent payout report that will be generated on 15th March.
We take roughly 15-20 days to disburse the funds after the payout report is generated. So the affiliate will receive a commission for the referred customer on 7th January anytime between 15th-31st March.
We want to inform you that self-referrals for affiliate purchases are strictly prohibited. Please note that if you purchase a membership package through your own affiliate link, you will not receive any credit or commission for the transaction. While you may receive an automatic notification from Pabbly Subscriptions indicating that a sale has occurred, please be aware that your affiliate payments will not include this amount. Furthermore, it is crucial to note that the commission will not be generated if the custom domain of the affiliate and the end-user are the same.
Let’s understand this with an example. When a customer lands on our website via an affiliate link, a cookie will get saved on their device and browser. However, if due for some reason, they leave the website without completing the purchase at that time but come back to our website after a few days within the cookie period and complete the payment, then also your referral will work and a commission will be generated against that sale.
Pabbly affiliate program provides a cookie period of 365 days which is the best in the industry. This allows you to get commissions for the referral that is made almost a year back.
We reserve the right to approve or reject ANY of your affiliate commissions on the following basis. You will have no legal recourse against us for the rejection of your affiliate commission.
Approve: The commissions are approved only when the user is still using our service and has an active account. This is subject to any of our free trial periods or 60 days after the sale has been made.
Disapprove: We disapprove of the commission when the referred client’s account is subjected to any refunds/cancellations or violates our affiliate terms and conditions.
Yes, you will be paid until your referred customer stays with us. You will get the commission from the first payment to all the recurring paid by the customer. The commission rate for the first purchase and recurring payment is 30% respectively.
The minimum payout amount is the minimum commission amount that needs to be earned by the affiliate to include it in the payout report. The minimum payout amount is $50.
We follow the “Last Click ” model. That means, the last affiliate link, clicking on which the customer has made the sale, will be recorded in the system. For example, 4 different affiliates, say A, B, C, and D have approached a user to make a purchase. If the user has opened the affiliate links in the following order – D’s link, C’s link, A’s link, and at last B’s link and finally purchased the product through B’s link, then the sale will be recorded against B’s affiliate referral and commission will be generated for B respectively.
The commission amount paid to you will be inclusive of the 18% GST. You will need to send us the invoice to get your payment processed. The invoice shall include your PAN card number and GST Number(if applicable to you). All payments will be done after deducting a 5% TDS amount on the commission payment. We will be depositing the TDS tax payment for the commission earned against your PAN number on your behalf. If you do not fall under the tax bracket, you can claim a refund from the Government.
