Shopify Affiliate Program

calling all affiliate marketers shopify
is a huge platform and their affiliate
program has just changed let's talk
about it so first and foremost i want to
kind of walk you through what they have
in terms of how you can apply getting
started and of course i'm going to go
through the commission change and what
it means for you says create new
entrepreneurs earn more than just
commissions grow your brand with shopify
access exclusive opportunities and earn
a commission through our referral
program become a shopify affiliate now
they don't have a whole lot of
information when it comes to this but
what i do want to let you know is that
they've actually moved over to impact
that's going to be where all the stats
are that's where you can see if you've
made any actions like a trial and of
course if that trial has converted into
a paid conversion because that's where
the the best of the commission aspect is
going to be i'll talk about that more in
a sec talk some from some of their
affiliates so it has some of the faqs
i'm going to answer these what is the
affiliate program it includes
entrepreneurs educators influencers and
content creators who inspire and teach
their audience about entrepreneurship
with shopify the program is free to join
which is good and allows you to monetize
your audience and earn commissions from
each new shopify merchant referral uh
what requirements do you need to apply
if the own and run an active website
have an established audience create
original content such as online courses
seminars blog posts or videos have an
experience with shopify or other
ecommerce platforms and you have to read
and of course agree to the shopify
partner program agreements uh however i
know if it's accepted our team will
carefully review your application in
most cases applications to the affiliate
program are processed within 15 days how
a referral is tracked so once you're
accepted to the affiliate program you
will receive unique reference handling
your affiliate link and tracking all the
referrals and so on and so forth once
again that's going to be done in the
impact what is the commission structure
ironically enough it doesn't say
specifically but i took a screenshot of
the inside of impact which i'll show you
soon since you're eligible to receive a
commission for merchants that you refer
to a paid shopify plan through your
affiliate link there is no maximum
number of merchants you can refer and we
want to earn as much as possible how
does payment work that's going to be
through impact and so on and so forth so
first and foremost i want to talk to you
before what it used to be it used to be
a 200 percent so what do i mean by that
if someone bought the 29 per month plan
you get paid 29 in one month and then
like the month after you get paid 29
again so pretty much you would double
whatever they signed up for so instead
of that they've actually moved to just
any time a trial moves over to a paid
plan you're just going to get a one-time
payment of a hundred dollars now this is
going to be so much better if you've
been an affiliate in the past and say
you were promoting shopify and you found
that most people were getting basic
which i've seen in my experience because
if you think about it a lot of people
who are just getting started are mostly
gonna go for the basic plan
especially for the fact that if there
don't have a ton of sales they don't
have a ton of traffic they don't need
all the bells and whistles it makes
sense to do that so given the fact most
people are going to be on basic that's
going to be around was that 58 you would
get per customer now that's going up to
a hundred okay so here is the screenshot
i took for you so first and foremost
there's going to be the free trial api
so whenever someone clicks on your link
and they get started with a free trial
it's going to show up as an action in
your account for impact and of course if
they transition on over and they get a
paid plan regardless of what it's going
to be it's going to be a hundred dollars
one time okay so that's going to be the
really big difference i think that's an
overall upgrade like i talked about
because there's going to be so many more
people who just go for the basics
starting off as opposed to someone
getting like one of the huge accounts up
and running unless you're the type of
person who's looking just for
individuals those types of accounts then
yes it's not going to be as good but
overall i think it's a big improvement
you get a 100 one time and that's going
to be the commission change keep in mind
i'm recording this you know when this
video releases this can always change
you know they they might do something
different but that's going to be like
pretty much the big overview in terms of
the switch being paid the 200 percent
based upon the plan that they sign up
for as opposed to just paying you 100
one time so that's all the details i
talked about when it comes to the
pricing what it used to be the
commission change and of course how you
can sign up i'll leave a link down below
where you can apply and like i said
they're going to be on impact now they
used to have their own platform within
shopify but they've changed that as well
thank you so much for watching i hope
you got some value out of this and it
answered a lot of the questions when it
comes to the shopify newer affiliate
program that's about it thanks again for
watching and i'll talk to you soon
