Voucher Codes
Affiliates may only promote codes that are provided through the Heritage of Scotland affiliate programme, either through the interface or directly from Heritage of Scotland Affiliate Manager.
Heritage of Scotland reserves the right to withhold payment of commission if unauthorised voucher codes are used in an affiliate sale. We appreciate that consumers may use voucher codes that they have found via a site other than that which is awarded the sale and this will be investigated before decisions on commission payment are made. Any affiliate found to be displaying unauthorised codes may also have their commission set to zero until the code(s) are removed.
Voucher code terms and conditions must be clearly displayed onsite, any affiliate found promoting codes which do not have the clearly marked T&Cs available may have their commission set to zero until the T&Cs are visible.
Where voucher codes are issued with an expiry date this should be clearly displayed and codes should be removed or explicitly marked as expired after this date unless you are advised otherwise. Any affiliates displaying expired codes without marking them as being expired may be suspended from the programme. Please also ensure that you observe the IAB voucher code best practice guidelines.

Productfeed

Payment
Your commission will be paid to you monthly, any queries regarding when you will receive this payment should be directed to AWIN. Please note that we validate sales after 30 days (full price) and 30 days (Sale) returns window has passed, so the earliest you will see a tracked sale either approved or declined is around 90 days after the sale date. The payment of the commission will then be dependent on the time of the month that the sale is validated, and also on the payment status of the Heritage of Scotland programme.
Transaction Queries
For any sales purchased through a cashback site where the sale has either not tracked into a customer's cashback account or has tracked through at the wrong amount, transaction queries can be raised through the relevant cashback partner. The customer will have 6 months from the purchase date to raise a transaction query, and any transaction queries raised after the 6 month period will not be considered.
Google Shopping & PLA Activity
With the recent ruling against Google in the EU, Google Shopping has undergone changes to allow for more competition amongst Comparison Shopping Services, otherwise known as CSS. Any bidding on Heritage of Scotland products against Google and other competitors in this space will receive 0% CPA.
If you wish to run any Google Shopping or PLA activity, please contact us first. Any affiliate seen to run Google Shopping or PLA activity on brand terms without permission will receive 0% CPA until the matter is resolved.
