2. What is Affiliate Marketing?
2.1 Definition
Affiliate marketing is a performance-based marketing arrangement where we (the affiliate) earn a commission by promoting products or services offered by other companies (third-party vendors or merchants).
2.2 How It Works

- You click on an affiliate link on our website
- You are redirected to the vendor’s website where you can make a purchase
- If you purchase, we may earn a commission from the vendor
- You pay the same price – our commission does not increase your cost
Important: Our commission is paid by the vendor, not by you. It does not affect the price you pay.
