What is the Hike IT Affiliate Program?

The Hike IT Affiliate Program is a way for you to earn commissions simply by placing banners, with our embedded links, on your website to refer visitors to our Hike IT shop or even making a video with your affiliate tracking link, promoting us in a forum and so on. Once the visitor makes a purchase, after having clicked on one of those banners/link, YOU - as the affiliate - can earn up to 10% commission on the referral sale of Hike IT products that your link generated.

How does it work?

It couldn't be simpler! We've streamlined our entire affiliate process ensuring ease of use, while still maintaining accurate tracking records. Here's how it works:

• Visitor clicks on an affiliate link on your site or in an email.
• The visitor's IP is logged and a cookie is placed in his browser for tracking purposes.
• The visitor browses our site and may decide to order.
• If the visitor orders (the order need not be placed during the same browser session--cookies and IPs are stored indefinitely), the order will be tracked and registered as a sale for the affiliate.
• Hike IT will review and approve the sale. This process may take up to sixty (60) days.
• Affiliates receive commission payouts via PayPal on the 15th of every month, if their balance is at least $150 USD.

That's it! You send us business, we send you money!
