Q: What is an affiliate program? 

A: Tate + Zoey pays affiliates for promoting our products and deals. Affiliates promote their unique link on their websites, blogs, and social media to send their networks to the Tate + Zoey site. Affiliates earn money for each sale made through their unique link. 

Here is an example: You become an Affiliate and write a blog post about great products for great prices, and you mention Tate + Zoey and use your unique Affiliate link. When your readers click on your Affiliate link, come to our site, and then make a purchase, you receive a commission for that purchase.* 

*Purchase must be made within the cookie period.
