4) Tracking & Attribution
You earn commission on orders placed by customers who reach U.S. Hot Stamps through your tracking link.
Tracking uses last-click attribution. If a customer clicks more than one affiliate link, only the most recently clicked link counts.
The tracking cookie is stored for 1,000 days.

5) Commission & Payouts
Commission rate
The standard commission rate starts at 5% of the referred order’s product subtotal. Shipping, tax, and coupon discounts are not part of that subtotal. The amount is calculated from the product subtotal when the order is placed. Top performers may receive a higher rate or bonus incentives at our discretion.
When commission is credited or reversed
Commission is credited when the referred order reaches Processing. Moving the same order to Shipped or Complete does not add another commission. If the order is later Refunded, Reversed, Charged Back, or Voided, the commission for that order is reversed.
Your commission balance
Your affiliate account shows four amounts:
• Pending — credited commission still inside the 30-day holding period.
• Available to Withdraw — credited commission that is at least 30 days old and not reserved by a withdrawal request.
• Withdrawal in Progress — amounts you have requested that are not yet paid.
• Total Paid — amounts already paid out.
The 30-day holding period starts when the commission is credited (when the referred order reaches Processing).
Using commission at checkout
Affiliate commission is not store credit and is never applied automatically at checkout. If you have available commission, you may choose to apply some or all of it on an order. A coupon and commission may be used on the same order. You may place your own orders while waiting to withdraw. Self-referral fraud is not allowed (see section 8).
Withdrawals and payouts
The minimum withdrawal is $50.00. Payouts are processed monthly, manually, to the PayPal email or bank account saved on your affiliate profile. Cheque is not supported. Update your payout method to PayPal or bank transfer before requesting a withdrawal.
Submitting a withdrawal request immediately reserves that amount so it cannot be requested again. Paid requests are not deducted a second time. Withdrawals are not sent automatically through the card or PayPal checkout networks. Other payout methods may be available upon request.
