Question:Can you give me more information about the StarWarsShop.com affiliate program?
Answer: If you run a website, the StarWarsShop.com affiliate program is a way
for you to earn money. We will pay you up to an 8% commission when a
visitor to your site clicks through to StarWarsShop.com and makes a
purchase. We pay you based on the subtotal of the order, which is the
total purchase amount of the product (not including shipping &
handling, tax and gift wrap). Once someone places an order you will see
that order in your online real-time report so you can track your
earnings daily. You will receive a check each month if you meet the $25
minimum earnings threshold. The $25 minimum is for all of your
Commission Junction advertisers combined, not just for StarWarsShop.com
earnings. It is free to join the StarWarsShop.com affiliate program.
