Affiliate program rules and technical part

[darkdiver]

How to take part in an affiliate program:

To participate in the affiliate program you need to buy something from us, or register at https://userarea.zennolab.com/en/Registration.aspx.
Go to the Profile https://userarea.zennolab.com/en/userarea/Profile.aspx complete information about yourself (affiliate nickname and billing information)
Navigate to Affiliate section https://userarea.zennolab.com/en/userarea/AffiliateProgram.aspx
go to the Information tab, where you'll find your affiliate links for sale. You can also ask the buyer to put your affiliate nickname when he buy directly through the payment page http://zennolab.com/en/buy-it-now/version-comparison/


How it works:

After entering on your affiliate page (for example testuser) http://www.zennolab.com/ru/products/zennoposter/pid/testuser user will be redirected to a page http://www.zennolab.com/ru/products/zennoposter/ and he will get a special cookie, which will identify you with the purchase. Even if the user put the page in the bookmarks, and then returned, then your cookie will deduct that the sale took place from you.

Спойлер: Technology

Technology:

1. Cookie lifetime is one month
2. Cookie is placed only if the person has come to our website the first time. It means he should know about ZennoPoster from you.
3. To set the cookie, you can use a hidden iframe on your own advertising pages of our products, ie even if a user read the ads on your site will not pass on the affiliate link, he will get your cookie. Iframe can be put only on the advertising pages of our products or contain advertising of our products, otherwise we reserve the right not to pay partnership rewards. All transactions from the partners are hand moderated.

If the user wants to buy the program exactly from you, then he must buy directly from your “Buy Now” link http://zennolab.com/en/buy-it-now/version-comparison/pid/youraffnick
Then no strangers cookie will work and you're guaranteed to get rewards partnership.


Conditions for obtaining affiliate commissions:

1. Payouts are made via WebMoney, or via PayPal.
2. If you are an existing customer, then your can get payout after the first sale, if not a client, then after the second.
3. We have 30 days hold period for sales. Also our billing deduct $21 commission from the affiliate for each charge back (You transactions will have unapproved status during hold period, when they will be added to your balance).
4. Is strictly forbidden to share partnership rewards with the buyer. You can offer training, templates, ext. services, but not money. For the promise of a partnership interest to buyers, written in your ad, we reserve the right to ban you in an affiliate program without any payout at all.
5. You receive 10% of the royalties, which came to us from billing, as in some cases have to pay tax VAT (value added tax) http://home.plimus.com/ecommerce/sellers/support-services/sellers-faq#17
6. During special offers partnership interest will decrease.
7. If you buy traffic from PPC or other advertising, do NOT put a link directly to your affiliate url. Set the link to your article or blog about ZennoPoster and already there you can put affiliate links and / or iframe
8. Please do not write anything negative in the title of advertising, such as we saw "Do not buy until you know ZennoPoster the whole truth .." etc.
9. We reserve the right to change the terms of partnership with the notice (in the affiliate news section in the forum and / or e-mail) not less than one week before the changes take effect.

Hello, i just want to know if the affiliate commission includes the 6 month upgrade program and an upgrade version from a user ?

 

[darkdiver]

If user buys a program via you, he will receive 6 month updates as usual.
You will receive 10% of money we got from billing.
But you can transfer affiliate commission to the internal balance and use this money to prolong your update period or upgrade the program from Lite -> Standard -> Pro. You can do it here https://userarea.zennolab.com/ru/userarea/ProductUpdate.aspx
Also you will have 30% bonus if you will transfer your affiliate commission to the internal balance (if you transfer $10 you will receive $13). These means you can buy updates or program upgrades with 30% discount if your are using money earned in our affiliate program.
To transfer money from Affiliate balance to the internal balance use https://userarea.zennolab.com/en/userarea/AffiliateProgram.aspx tab Payouts

Wow that would be great !... but at my first post, what i would like to ask about these kind of scenario..

1. If a user buy from our affiliate link, than after 6 month.. he continue/paid for another upgrade package for 6 month... does affiliates get the commissions from it ?
2. If a user buy from our affiliate link a lite version, then he upgrade to standard/professional... does affilaites get the commission from it ?

 

[darkdiver]

no, you got revenue only for sale, stimulate users to buy Pros.
Also you have a contact email of your referrals. You can work with them.
Also your clients automatically became the affiliates in our program. And if they also sell something , you will get 5% of their sales (up to $30 for your referrals sale).

Great ! It's selling time !

One last request, could you create a blank page on your zennolab.com for the purpose of set cookies using hidden iframe techniques. This to reduce the download time for our advertisement so its looks like a snap compare if it loads all the homepage content... a simple blank would be great..

Thanks !

 

[darkdiver]

For selling ZennoPoster use this page http://zennolab.com/en/products/zennoposter/blank-page we will reduce amount of scripts also in few hours. But we need some scripts to track your traffic and this will not be a very little page.

 

[veeco]

as long as it optimized for the blank page.. that's fine... !
so the format would be

http://zennolab.com/en/products/zennoposter/blank-page/pid/[affilate]

right ?

 

[darkdiver]

yep, your are right.

 

[veeco]

hello,
can i suggest to remove or hide "Ref Code" in buy it now. As an affiliate, we never know who's going to visit my site and convert, while he want to buy, he can erase the ref code easily coz basically the visitor never knew me...

learn from the clickbank, if you reallty have to display the ref code, you can display uneditable small text to display ref code in bottom screen.

also i tried to test: http://zennolab.com/en/products/capmonster/capmonster-lite-samples/pid/myaffiliatecode , but when i try to buy, the ref code is not automatically filled, its different when i use "buy it now" reference: http://zennolab.com/en/buy-it-now/version-comparison/pid/myaffiliatecode. Where the ref code is automatically filled.

"

1. Cookie is placed only if the person has come to our website the first time. It means he should know about ZennoPoster from you."

It means, if client arrive on zenno website 3 months ago, and not buy anything, and today i give him link and explain all, and client buy Zennoposter, i do not get anything ?

today i thing happened, this situation, becouse i not see in my panel any commision, but i know 100% that my old zennobox client buy today zennoposter, on my advice and above my link .

 

[darkdiver]

If you are selling directly, you should use http://zennolab.com/en/buy-it-now/version-comparison/pid/yourid, it will automatically fill your ref code over the cookie system.

Then you are coping link from user are you can see
"For direct sales use this link http://zennolab.com/en/buy-it-now/version-comparison/pid/yourid, in this case you guaranteed to get affiliate reward, It is very useful to give this link if you are selling software via ICQ, Skype, etc."

In your case you can write a ticket to [email protected]. We will update your sale if it missed ref code (we need to know customer's email and date of purchase)

 

[aleksa77]

Thanks, i send him main affiliate code, what is main in my panel, on affiliate page :

http://www.zennolab.com/en/products/zennoposter/pid/bfb52e2b-92d0-4eb2-bf28-5d507587c4f3


This main code, not works if user visit in past zennolab ?

http://zennolab.com/en/buy-it-now/version-comparison/pid/bfb52e2b-92d0-4eb2-bf28-5d507587c4f3


And this last code will works, if user allready visit in past zennolab, right ?

 

[darkdiver]

Both works.
The first one set only cookie (if possible)
The second one writes cookie (if possible) and put it your ref code to the buy no window

Value from Ref code filed has a priority over cookie.
