Affiliate Terms and Conditions

1. Approve or Reject of the Registration

We reserve the right to approve or reject ANY Affiliate Program Registration in our sole and absolute discretion. You will have no legal recourse against us for rejecting your Affiliate Program Registration. Walton's withholds the right to discontinue the partnership at any time the affiliate represents Walton's brand inappropriately or violates Walton's brand standards. Walton's may terminate the collaboration immediately at their discretion, and all payments will immediately cease 

2. Affiliate Links and Coupons

Affiliate links will be automatically generated. If a person clicks on someone else's referral link and then later clicks on yours, yours is the one that counts. Walton's uses a last-click attribution model. 

Affiliates might or might not be assigned to a coupon code, with details and usage clarified on the Dashboard. If customers both click on the affiliate link and use your coupon code, you will not receive a double commission. You are not allowed to promote a coupon you are not assigned. Affiliates may also advertise merchant websites on online channels such as Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, or TikTok or offline classified ads in magazines and newspapers. 

3. Commissions and payment

If you refer a customer to complete a purchase on our website, you will receive a commission calculated based on your agreed individual offer. The commission total depends on order value and does not include extra fees (tax, shipping cost, etc.). Commission will be eligible on all items up to $100 earned back per item, depending on the commission rate. 

To receive a commission, an affiliate must specify the payment details in settings. The payment schedule will be notified on the affiliate guide page. Once the threshold of $100 has been reached, the default payment time will be every 30 days. 

Walton's will only send payments for successfully completed transactions. The affiliate program is subject to a fair use policy, which gives the merchant the right to review each referral order. The commission status is displayed in the commission tab; any paid commission will be listed on the Payment tab. Transactions that result in chargebacks or refunds will not be paid out. 

4. Marketing tools

We may share promotion media such as banners, logos, or specific collection promotions with you through the https://waltons.com/brand page. You can download media materials here or contact [email protected] for additional marketing material. Additional marketing material may be posted within the affiliates' overflow account. 

5. Cookies and JavascriptSDK

Walton's affiliate program uses JavascriptSDK and cookies to track referrals and attribute sales to the correct affiliate. When a potential customer clicks on an affiliate link, a cookie is placed on their device. This cookie has a duration of 7 days. If the customer makes a purchase within this 7-day period, the sale will be attributed to the affiliate whose link was last clicked. This means that the affiliate will earn a commission for the sale, provided all other conditions are met. It is important for affiliates to inform their audience about the use of cookies and ensure compliance with any applicable data protection and privacy laws. 

6. Removal from the Referral Program

If an affiliate wishes to be removed from the affiliate program, they can contact [email protected]. For any other support questions, please reach out to [email protected] 

7. Non-Compete

We maintain a strict policy prohibiting our affiliates from working with companies offering similar products or services. We reserve the right to terminate our partnership with any affiliate who engages in business with our competitors. If termination is determined, payment will stop immediately.
