Your referral link(s)

You have one personal referral code, and your dashboard shows a ready-to-share link built from it for each active partner campaign — sometimes more than one, if we’re running more than one campaign right now. Anyone who clicks one of your links and later does business with that partner gets tracked back to you automatically. A new campaign shows up on your dashboard the moment it goes live — nothing you need to do to unlock it.

Recruiting your own team

Your dashboard also shows a second link for inviting other people to become affiliates themselves. Anyone who signs up through that link becomes part of your team, and you earn a bonus on their sales going forward — and again, a smaller bonus, on sales made by people they recruit. This works up to two levels deep below you.

How earnings are figured

Every sale generates a commission that’s split a fixed way across up to three tiers: the affiliate who made the sale, that affiliate’s recruiter, and the recruiter’s own recruiter (if there is one). Your dashboard shows your estimated earnings range for each tier while the current month is still open, and switches to your exact final amount once the month closes.

Your team view

The “Your team” section on your dashboard shows everyone you’ve personally recruited, and everyone they’ve recruited in turn, with enough contact info to reach out and help them get started.

Payment info

Enter how you’d like to be paid under Payment Info on your dashboard. This is only ever visible to you — staging.gemzonline.com only ever sees a masked summary, never your full account details.

Tax information (required before you’re paid)

Before we can send you any payout, we need a one-time W-9 (US) or W-8BEN (non-US) form on file — the same Tax Information section on your dashboard as Payment Info. This is standard for anyone earning referral income, not something specific to you. We only ever see a masked summary of what’s on file, never your tax ID.

Minimum payout amount

Payouts only go out once your unpaid balance reaches $50. Below that, nothing is lost — your balance just carries forward automatically to the next payout run. If you’re ever held back for this reason (or for missing tax info above), we’ll email you directly to let you know.

Referring yourself

You’re welcome to use your own referral link if you personally become a customer — there’s no rule against it, and you’ll earn your normal commission on the sale. If that partner also offers buyer cash back, you’d get a separate email with a link to claim it, the same as any other referred customer would. The one thing we do watch for is a second account being created just to stack extra recruiting bonuses on what’s really one person’s own business, which isn’t in the spirit of the program.

Marketing materials

If we’ve made images or other materials available for your current campaigns, they show up in a Marketing Materials section on your dashboard, ready to download and use when promoting your link.

Changing your password

Use the password field near the bottom of your dashboard. You’ll need your current password to set a new one.

Unsubscribing from emails

Every email we send has an unsubscribe link at the bottom. Using it stops future emails to that address — it doesn’t affect your account, your link, or your payouts.
