Frequently Asked Questions

How does the TSR Affiliation Program work?
When you write a blog, post an image or story on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter (or anywhere else appropriate) with a link back to TheSewingRevival's website (we give you a special link), and if the person who clicked the link ("the referred customer") eventually makes a purchase, then you receive commission as a % of the $value of that purchase which will be paid to you (via your PayPal account). The commission rate is currently 20%.

How does TSR (and I) keep track of referrals than turn into purchases?
The software we use tracks the unique code we give you, all the way through the purchasing process and records the sale (and your commission) automatically. You can login any time to your Affiliate account with us to check your details and referral sales. We provide you with login details once your request for registration is accepted.

Can anyone become an Affiliate? 
As long as you share a passion for sewing and our values of authenticity, creativity and diversity (a celebration of personal style).

When and How will I get paid?
We pay out using PayPal. So please use your Paypal email address at sign up. Or you will need to add that email address to your PayPal account. 
You get paid the first week of every month for commission on the prior months referred sales.  For example, sales that result in referrals you have made in January, will be paid in the first month of February. 

Will the commission always be calculated at 20%?
Not necessarily. We reserve the right to increase or decrease our commissions on certain promotions or products. You will always be informed if the rate of commission changes and you always have a choice on whether you participate in a product promotion or not.


How do I add a link to a post?
1. Login to your account.  This will take you to your Affiliatly homepage. 

2. Copy your unique Affiliate Link from the "Info" Page Tab and embed it anywhere on your site. Attach it to a photo, banner or text (copy and paste it). It will look something like this https://www.thesewingrevival.com/?aff=[YOUR_UNIQUE_REF_HANDLE]. This link is to the Sewing Revival Homepage only.

>You can also create a specific link to a pattern or sewing video with the 'link generator'. Videos are a great way to introduce customers to TheSewingRevival.com.
>You can create links to any TSR page or product by adding your unique Affiliate Code ?aff=[YOUR_UNIQUE_REF_HANDLE] at the end of the relevant URL address. Refer "Deep Links" in the FAQ below.

4. Once you have embedded the link on your website by attaching it to a photo, banner or text (copy and paste), make sure you ask potential customers to click on it. After all - you need them to click through to generate your commission.

5. That's it. You're done.
