Partner programme terms
Last updated 10 November 2026
This page is the agreement between you and Velo Canada (86 N Bend St #108, Coquitlam, BC V3K 6H1) when you join our partner programme. By sending an application you accept it. We have tried to write it the way we would explain it across a table.
A. Joining
- Every application is reviewed by someone on our team, usually within one business day. We tell you the outcome whether it is yes or no.
- A referral code is set aside for you when you apply. Until your account is accepted, links built on that code do not earn anything.
- Joining is free. We set no minimum audience and ask for no exclusivity. What we assess is the places you intend to promote us.
- Each email address holds one account. Sending a second application from the same address does not open another account.
B. Your commission
The rate is 30% on each order you refer. It does not change by tier and applies from your first order. The rate is multiplied against your commission base.
Your commission base is a fixed share of the order’s product total, valued at the price the customer actually paid after any discount (a promo code, your own partner code, a bundle price). Sales tax is excluded. So is shipping. We use the discounted price because commission on a discount the customer never paid would be commission on money that never arrived.
The share is the same for every order and every product. It does not rise or fall with our shipping costs or anything else that happens after checkout.
You can check every payment. For each referred order your dashboard lists the product total, the commission base, the rate and the commission, and the email we send when the sale is recorded lists the same four figures. If anything looks off, write to team@apollobrands.net and we will walk through the order with you.
C. How an order is credited to you
- Clicking your link places a first-party cookie. The order is yours if it is placed within 90 days of the click, a window that can grow to 365 days as your sales clear (see section D).
- Your partner code works without any cookie. A customer who enters it receives 10% off full-price cans, and we attribute that order to you.
- A link click takes priority over a code. If a customer arrives through your link and then enters a different partner’s code, you are credited.
- Between two links, the most recent click is credited.
- Credit is fixed when the order is placed. Pausing your account later does not remove credit for orders already placed.
- Link tracking needs cookies. We cannot credit an order where the buyer blocked or cleared them, or switched devices, and we cannot reconstruct that afterwards. Your code is the safeguard.
D. Tiers
Tiers change the length of your tracking window and nothing else. Commission is 30% on all of them.
- Standard: 90-day window. Every partner begins here.
- Silver: 120-day window. Reached at 10 cleared orders plus CA$250 in cleared commission.
- Gold: 180-day window. Reached at 40 cleared orders plus CA$1,200 in cleared commission.
- Publisher: 365-day window. Reached at 120 cleared orders plus CA$4,000 in cleared commission.
An order is “cleared” once it has been paid to you, or once it has passed the 30-day hold with no refund. Orders that are only placed do not count. A longer window also covers clicks made before you reached the tier. We do not move you down a tier automatically if a later refund takes you back under a threshold.
E. Payment
- Commission is recorded when the referred order is paid and then held for 30 days, which covers our refund period.
- When the hold ends it becomes payable and is included in the next payout run.
- If an order is refunded before its commission is paid, the commission is reversed. A payout we have already sent is final and will not be recovered from you.
- We pay out using the method and details saved on your account: Interac e-Transfer, PayPal or crypto. Email us before a payout to change them.
- Tax on your earnings is your responsibility. We withhold nothing.
F. Conduct
The following are binding conditions of the programme:
- Self-referrals earn nothing, and refunded orders reverse.
While you carry our link or code, what you say about these products reflects on us. That is why we review each application before an account goes live.
G. Ending the arrangement, and changes
Either side can end your participation whenever it chooses. Where we pause or close an account because these terms were broken, commission that has already passed its hold is still paid and commission still inside the hold is forfeited. We may revise this agreement. Any revision is emailed to you before it takes effect.
