Earn Commission From Affiliate Banner Advertising
The best advice for your scenario?
Commission is paid for sales referred via banner click-thoughs.
Commission on sales
ArtistScope maintains an in-house affiliate sales tracking scheme that records online sales referred from websites that display our affiliate banners. Unlike most other affiliate commission schemes who are more interested in charging you for the privilege of joining, ArtistScope doesn't mess with statistics that cannot be validated. Instead we pay 20% commission on all sales tracked as coming from the banner that you displayed on your website.
Choose which banners are shown
Rather than display whatever comes next in a rotation, as with most affiliate schemes, you get to select which banner is shown on your website. That way you can select one that suits your theme, and more importantly, for a product that you can recommend.
Banner content
All products and services that are promoted via our affiliate banners are for protecting intellectual property. The end users of those solutions are companies wishing to keep proprietary data inhouse, and online tutors wishing to protect lessons and tutorials. Either way, they are wanting to protect intellectual property as a means of protecting their livelihood. Click for more info and the selection of banners.
How it works
By displaying an affilate banner image with a links that contains the product code and your affiliate ID, when anyone clicks on the banner for more info, a browser cookie is created that stores information about their visit. Consequently when they visit that product's order page, your affiliate ID can be recorded against the order for you to receive 20% commissiion. Cookies are valid for up to 45 days so even if they return next week or the week after, you still get commission on the referral. Click for more info.

Frequent Questions and Answers
Q: How long before an account is approved?
After confirmation of registration from our email follow up, as long as it takes for our team to check your details and the suitability of the website that you nominated.
Q: As software resellers we prefer a more exclusive arrangement.
ArtistScope does not need exclusive agents when clients in every country can be serviced directly. Everyone worldwide can communicate in any language and purchase via either credit card, Paypal or bank transfer. ArtistScope has been marketing niche software worldwide since 1998 and the best support is provided by the team who understands how they work. However anyone can apply to be an affiliate and earn commissions. This is the only offer acceptable to us.
Q: How long before commissions are paid?
Commissions are paid at the end of each month based upon confirmed sales, that is, sales that have been confirmed by the client signing our sales agreement and successful delivery/installation.
Q: Please explain about the client's signed sales agreement?
All purchases over $35 require that the client sign our sales agreement which basically agrees that they have indeed evaluated the software prior to purchase, deemed it suitable for their intended use and are who they claim to be.
Q: Is there a minimum qualification before commission is paid?
Yes. Commission is paid when the minimum payout reaches $100 or more so your account needs to accrue/mature to be eligible.
