1. Program Overview


Red Apple Lipstick is a clean, allergen-conscious cosmetics company. Our affiliate program is designed for bloggers, content creators, influencers, and email marketers who align with our mission and customer base. We do not accept coupon sites, cashback platforms, browser extension affiliates, or trademark bidders. Aggregator networks (e.g., Skimlinks, Sovrn) are permitted with limitations (see Section 3).



2. Commission Structure



  • Base Rate: 10% per sale (net of returns, taxes, and shipping)

  • Manual Tiering: Commission increases are not automated. Higher rates are granted manually based on quality, transparency, and performance. There is no auto-escalation.

  • Performance Guidelines:

    • 12%+ may be offered to select affiliates producing high-quality, content-driven referrals.

    • 15%–20% reserved for pre-approved VIP partners or long-term high-performers.



  • Aggregator Policy: Aggregator networks (e.g., Skimlinks, Sovrn, etc.) are limited to a flat 8% commission. No tier increases apply to these accounts, regardless of volume.

  • Cookie Duration: 30 days

  • Commissions are voided on canceled, refunded, or fraudulent orders.
