Printful runs the Printful Affiliate Program. This page is a plain read of what Printful's own affiliate page states. It covers the commission, the tracking window, the payout and the rules. No more and no less.

What the Printful Affiliate Program is

Printful is the body behind the program, and its own affiliate page is the source for every term here. The program pays affiliates for referring customers to Printful. What that pay looks like comes from the page's own words.

Commission, as Printful's affiliate page states it

Printful's affiliate page says affiliates earn 10% commission on each referral's orders for 12 months after the first purchase.

Read that line as written. The 10% applies to orders, and the 12-month clock starts at the first purchase. Both numbers come from Printful's page, and both belong to this program alone.

Printful's affiliate page says its commission cookie lasts 30 days.

A cookie is the marker a click leaves in a reader's browser. It tells the program who sent the reader. The window is how long that marker counts. You can read more about what a cookie window is.

So the two time spans do different jobs. The 30-day cookie sets how long a click counts. The 12 months set how long orders from that referral earn commission.

Withdrawing earnings through PayPal

Printful's affiliate page says earnings can be withdrawn through PayPal, with a $25 minimum.

That means your commission sits until it reaches $25, and PayPal is the named way out. For how payouts work across programs in general, read how affiliate payouts are sent.

Program rules: self-referrals and keyword use

Printful's page sets two rules for affiliates.

First, Printful's affiliate page says it does not approve of self-referrals. Do not send your own purchases through your own link.

Second, Printful's affiliate page says not to use Printful as a keyword in SEO or PPC ads. That rule covers both search rankings and paid ads.

Who Printful says the program fits

Printful's affiliate page says its program fits bloggers, marketing agencies, independent creators and online store owners.

That is Printful's own list. If you are not on it, the page does not say either way. Read the terms on Printful's site before you join, since pages change.
