Is my site eligible to become an affiliate?

The affiliate team does have criteria that we look for when evaluating pending applications. Sites that we approve generally have these characteristics:

• Sites that have content related to home furnishings, design and decorating.
• Sites that are actively maintained. You will have an increased chance of making sales if your site(s) are kept current with our products and any available marketing promotions/campaigns.
• Enthusiastic website managers who are interested in making money!

What if I have multiple sites?

Once you become an affiliate, you can place our banner and links on one or all of your sites. However, placing links on sites not related to home furnishings and decor might generate fewer sales.

What are my responsibilities as an affiliate?

Your responsibilities include actively putting up links and banners soon after becoming an affiliate. Once your links are up and running, please be sure to check out our newsletters and the CJ or GAN interface for new marketing campaigns to keep your site fresh. Keep in mind that we have four different catalogs in our annual cycle, so this can be a guide for updating your site.

What are Home Decorators Collection’s responsibilities?

Our responsibilities include answering your questions in a timely manner, giving you access to updated links, banners and landing pages and anything else that you will need to help you generate revenue.

How do I know I will be credited for sales coming from my site?

• Once you have been accepted into CJ or GAN’s program, you will have access to an assortment of banners and links that will all have tracking codes.
• These tracking codes are administered through CJ and GAN’s interface and will track sales generated through your website.
• You will be able to see the order in the interface after it has been placed through your site.

How do I know how much I have earned?

You will also be able to track commissions earned through CJ or GAN’s interface. There are many reports available through the interfaces that allow you to track your sales.

How am I paid?

CJ or GAN will pay your commissions directly on a monthly basis.
