To register as an affiliate you must have an active StrikeLines account.
We review and moderate all affiliate registrations, and we appreciate your accurate and honest information. Please note that the review process may take a few days.
If you’re approved you’ll be given a unique referral ID that you can use to promote StrikeLines via referral links. Check out your private Affiliate Area for visits and referrals information, creatives, graphs and more!
You’ll earn a sweet 15% commission when a customer purchases charts (hardware is excluded) using your referral link. Here’s the breakdown of earnings by each license level we sell:
We pay out affiliate commissions in USD by check to your mailing address in the first week of every month. As we have a 30-day money back guarantee, we only pay commissions that are older than 30 days. The minimum payout balance is $50.00, so you receive a decent chunk of cash when payouts come around. And there’s no maximum payout balance!
In order to receive a payout for your referrals, please make sure your mailing address is correct in your StrikeLines.com account.
We do not allow referrals to be generated on your own purchases. We do not offer recurring referrals.
When a potential customer clicks on your referral link, a cookie is stored in their browser to track your referral. The cookie is then stored for a generous 30 days to give your referred customers time to decide if they wish to purchase StrikeLines, or ask us any pre-sale questions they may have.
A referral won’t be awarded if:
Referrals older than 30 days and in good standing (i.e. the purchase has not been refunded) will be included with each commission payout (if the commission balance totals $50.00 or over). If a purchase is refunded, a commission won’t be paid out for that referral.
We reserve the right to reject affiliate commissions for any reason. Commission rejections may occur for the following reasons:
By becoming an affiliate you agree to receive emails from StrikeLines. These emails will be sent to affiliates only, on an ad-hoc basis, and may include important information regarding the StrikeLines affiliate program. These emails will also provide you with relevant news and updates to help you effectively promote StrikeLines. As an affiliate you may be privy to embargoed or time-sensitive information in these emails (this information may only be promoted after an embargo is lifted). And we won’t spam you, ever – promise!
We reserve the right to reject affiliate applications for any reason. We also reserve the right to choose whether we provide an explanation or reasoning for affiliate application rejection. Below are just a few reasons why an application may be rejected (this is not an exhaustive list):

Please don’t leave us! We encourage all of our affiliates to actively promote StrikeLines to keep earning referrals. If we can help you come up with ideas on how to promote StrikeLines, please let us know – we’re here for you! An affiliate account is considered dormant if no visits have been generated after a 6-month period. A dormant affiliate account will be temporarily deactivated if no visits have been generated after 6 months.

The prohibited promotional methods listed below aren’t meant to scare you off – they’re here to protect you, and us, and our customers from any freaky or fraudulent activity, which is something we take pretty seriously
Buying ads through services like Google AdWords, social ads, or retargeting ads and using our brand keywords and your affiliate link will result in affiliate account deactivation.
Links, ads, emails, comments… any type of spam. Please respect the posting rules of any 3rd-party websites you use to promote StrikeLines. P.S. This is not an exhaustive list of spam methods; if we decide that your activity is spam, it’s spam.

If you’re unsure or concerned that some activity you’re about to proceed with may be considered prohibited, please ask us.
