What is the Sharkscope Affiliate Program?

The Sharkscope Affiliate Program allows you to earn commission by promoting Sharkscope through your website and channels when new users who you have referred then go on to purchase Sharkcope subscription(s).

Who can join the Sharkscope Affiliate Program?

Any businesses (who own and operate their own websites) or individuals can join as long as they have a website or can demonstrate they reach an audience with interest in online poker, then they're likely to succeed. Of course, they will also need to abide by the Sharkscope Affiliate program Terms and Conditions.

How do I sign up as an affiliate?

Simply sign-up here.

How much commission can I earn?

You will be able to earn a percentage (your commission rate) of all revenue you bring in. The commission rates will be agreed when you join and can depend on the type of subscription purchased and also the number of sales made. For example, we may apply a sliding scale that means as long as you make 2 sales and less than 10 sales, you'll get a 10% commission rate, above 10 sales we may apply a 20% rate. The good news is that if you refer a new paying customer, then if that customer makes future purchases, you will receive commission on these as well!

How does Sharkscope track referrals?

We use client-side cookies to track a user from your site to ours. When a user clicks our link on your site we are told which Affiliate referred the user and store that information on the client's machine as a cookie. When the user then registers we create an association between that user and you as an Affiliate. If and when that user later makes a purchase, we then look to see if there is an Affiliate associated and attribute the revenue accordingly.

What happens if a customer clears their cookies before signing up?

If this happens, we are unlikely to be able to track that user, unfortunately.
