Where can I find my referral link?
Once logging into your affiliate account, you will be able to find your referral URL under “Affiliate URLs” tab. It looks like the following:
https://preventdirectaccess.com/go/ref/your-username.
Your username is what you have entered when registering for our Affiliate Program.
Please note that your affiliate link will return 404 if you’re using it yourself when logged-in.
How much can I earn?
You will earn 21% of every sale which could be as much as $84-125 per lifetime license sale.
Reputable affiliates will get a higher commission, which could be up to 30% per sale. It’s subject to our approval depending on key criteria such as high-ranking websites and quality referring traffic.
Feel free to contact us if you think you deserve a higher commission.
We’re also working on a smart solution of crediting commission based on points (quality traffic) compared to actual sales as of now.
Can I earn commissions on my own purchase?
No. This is considered fraud and is against our Affiliate Program Terms & Conditions.
Could I get additional commissions on PDA extensions?
Currently, we only offer commissions for Prevent Direct Access (PDA) Gold subscription and lifetime license direct sales.
Upgraded license and recurring payments are not counted.
We will consider offering commissions for renewal and upgraded licenses as well as PDA extensions in the near future.
Where can I see that I see how much I’ve earned?
You can see your earnings under Referrals tab in our Affiliate Area. Once we process the payment, you will be able to see what you have been paid under Payouts tab.
How do I get paid?
Referral payments are paid by PayPal. Please create one if you don’t have a PayPal account yet. You can update your payment email under Affiliate Dashboard >> Settings tab.
When do payouts occur?
We will send out payment once you reach the minimum payout of $199.
Even though we offer a 60-day money-back guarantee, we will send your payout amount between 21st-25th in the next month – within 30 days after the sale is credited.
In other words, even if users ask for refund later on, we will still be sending the referral amount to you.
For example,
- If you make 2 sales of $120 on September, 15. You will get your $240 payment on October, 21-25.
- If the sales occur on the 21st onwards of September, you will get payment on November, 21-25.
If a user clicks on my link but then he clicks on another affiliate link and buys Prevent Direct Access Gold, will that sale be counted for me?
No, the last affiliate who referred the customer to us will be credited with the sale.
Why the customer clicked on my affiliate link and purchased but there is no referral in my account?
We will store your affiliate’s ID into cookie when the user clicks on your affiliate link. However, the purchase can’t be covered to a referral if:
- The cookie expires
- The user clears cookie data on this browser
- The user buy our products via a different browser
How long will a customer be attributed to my account?
Our cookie lasts for 90 days. Even if users don’t buy our products right after they click on the link, your referral is still counted if they come back and complete the purchase process within 90 days.
