Affiliates
the kivikis affiliate advertiser program
what is an affiliate program?
An affiliate program tracks online purchases made by a customer after clicking on an ad. The owner of the site where the ad appears receives a portion of the revenue generated through the ad.
how does it work?
You, the proprietor of a website or blog, set up an account with Commission Junction, our third-party affiliate service, and sign up to carry our advertisements on your site.
Then you select an ad from our library that you'd like to appear on your site.
That's it. If the ad sends us traffic that results in a sale, we share the revenue from that sale with you.
what's in it for me?
By enrolling in our affiliate program, you can offer your visitors an array of kivikis products — with none of the expense or risk inherent in operating an ecommerce website. Once users click on the ad, they're directed to our site, where we take care of order fulfillment, customer service, and everything else. Then, within the next month, Commission Junction issues you 10% of the total order value. This way, you can stay focused on developing your own site's content. The more visitors you have, the more potential kivikis customers you'll attract — and the more profits we'll share with you.
what if I'm not an html coding whiz?
Don't worry. Together with Commission Junction, our third-party affiliate ad service provider, we supply all the graphics, coding, and step-by-step instructions you need. You simply choose the ad from our library that you think would most appeal to your readers. Once you've picked out the ads, working them into your website is a simple process, and we have a dedicated affiliate manager ready to answer any questions.
how do I keep track of the referrals I've made?
Once the ads are up, you don't need to do anything. Commission Junction, our third-party provider, tracks and reports all activity generated from your site. Each kivikis link has an embedded tracking code, so you'll be able to see all the activity through your account with Commission Junction.
how do I get paid?
Commission Junction tabulates publisher-driven sales on a monthly basis, and then pays publishers (by check or direct deposit) from kivikis's account with Commission Junction. Please note there is no cost to you for participating in the program: kivikis pays all administrative fees.
who can participate?
We carefully evaluate all prospective affiliates to make sure they are a good fit for our brand (and we encourage you to do the same). While we are open to all inquiries, from casual, day-to-day bloggers to mainstream websites, we will not partner with any site that we feel could damage our brand or reputation. These include but are not limited to sites that feature sexually explicit material, gambling, violence, or discrimination of any sort. We reserve the right to refuse partnering with any site for any reason.
how can I find out more information?
Commission Junction has an extensive FAQ page available here. For answers to questions regarding kivikis ecommerce, or for more information about our company and product line, please email us at affiliates@kivikis.com.
how can I sign up?
Set up an account with Commission Junction, then find the kivikis page. Once we approve your site, you'll be able to choose your ads and begin earning commissions immediately!
Note: kivikis and Commission Junction are fully independent entities whose contract is indefinite and can be terminated at any time.
