USCFE Affiliate-Partner Program

USCFE’s Affiliate Partner Program, commonly known as an Affiliate, Associate or Partner Program, provides you with the opportunity to increase your revenue while connecting your customers to a trusted source for entrepreneurship education.

What is an Affiliate program?
Simply put, an affiliate is someone who sells someone else's products or services in exchange for a commission. When you sign up for our affiliate program, you receive a unique link that you can put on your web site or in your e-mail messages. Anyone who clicks this link will be directed to USCFE’s web site. If they make a purchase, you automatically receive a commission -- your share of the purchase price.

What if my referrals don't buy on the first visit?
When your users click on your USCFE affiliate text, banners, e-mail and other media elements, our shopping cart software places a traceable “cookie” onto their computer with your unique affiliate ID tied to it. There is no expiration date on the traceable cookie. Your referral could visit USCFE months or years later and you would still earn commissions based on their purchases.
