What is the commission on orders referred from my website?
Standard affiliate commission is 3% of the net cost of the items sold to customers referred from your website excluding amounts collected that include any fraud, bad debt, sales tax, cancellations, shipping/restocking charges ("Net Sales"). For example: A customer referred from your website purchases an item for $800.00 and pays $200.00 for shipping. The total order is $1000.00. You will be paid 3% of the $800.00 (Net Sales) which would equal $24.00 in commission! [top]

When will I receive my commission check?
We pay commissions on the 15th (approx.) of every month. Approximately 15 days following the end of each month, we will send you a check for the commissions earned on products during that month, less any taxes that we are required by law to withhold. However, if the commissions payable to you for any month are less than $50.00 (the "Commission Payment Threshold"), we will hold those commissions until the total amount due is at least equal to the Commission Payment Threshold. [top]

What is a CID?
The CID portion of the link is your unique identifier and is used to track sales referred from your site and to apply commissions. It is very important that you include your CID in every link that points to ReadySetHome.com to prevent commission being applied to the wrong account. [top]

Does readysethome.com offer XML to affiliates?
ReadySetHome.com is working on a system that will provide affiliates with a standardized XML based catalog of our products, shipping calculations and checkout processes. With this XML feed, our affiliates will have the ability to fully integrate our products into their site while maintaining their site's look and feel. This allows for the complete control of the catalog structure and cart layout by the affiliate. Please check the Affiliate News section of your Affiliate Center for updates. [top]

Where can I view how much commission I've earned?
