The affiliate programme
Every holder of an active licence receives an affiliate link and code. When someone buys with them, you earn a commission. The buyer pays the same price and gets the same licence.
The full rules are in the Affiliate programme section of the terms of use.
Find your link and your code
Section titled “Find your link and your code”Open your client area, Affiliate programme section. There you will find Your affiliate link and Your code, with a Copy button. The link is also in your welcome email.
The buyer can also enter your code in the Referral code field of the payment page. That code is then the one that counts.
To choose your code:
- Click Choose my code.
- Enter 3 to 24 characters: lowercase letters, digits and hyphens, with no hyphen at the start or end.
- Click Save.
You can have up to 5 codes. Links you have already shared keep working. A code that could pass for Island Pilot, Epic Games or a payment provider is refused.
What you earn
Section titled “What you earn”The commission is 10% of the amount paid, which is €18.90 on a Solo plan and €24.90 on a Duo plan. It does not apply to your own purchases.
Timings and payment
Section titled “Timings and payment”- The commission stays pending for 30 days after the sale.
- It then becomes available.
- SAUL CORP pays the available commissions to your PayPal account, at the start of each month, from €50. Below that, the amount carries over to the following month.
You need a PayPal account that can receive these payments. Any fees that PayPal charges on your account remain your responsibility.
Connect your PayPal account
Section titled “Connect your PayPal account”- In the Getting paid section, tick the box to accept the programme terms.
- Click Connect my PayPal account.
- Sign in on PayPal’s page and authorise sharing your address, your name and your account status.
You then return to your client area. SAUL CORP never sees your PayPal password. To change account later, use Change PayPal account.
Until the connection is open, the client area displays: “Connecting a PayPal account opens soon. Your commissions stay yours in the meantime.”
Track your results
Section titled “Track your results”| Indicator | What it counts |
|---|---|
| Visits | Visits that came through your link |
| Sales | Purchases made with your link or your code |
| Pending | Commissions that are not yet available |
| To be paid | Available commissions |
| Paid | What you have already received |
You never see the buyers’ identity.
Commission cancelled or taken back
Section titled “Commission cancelled or taken back”- During a payment dispute, the commission is on hold.
- It is not due if the sale is refunded or the dispute is lost.
- If it has already been paid, it is deducted from the next payout.
The rules to follow
Section titled “The rules to follow”Present Island Pilot fairly. The following are forbidden:
- promises of income, and inaccurate prices or features;
- misleading advertising, or a code presented as a discount;
- unsolicited messages;
- paid ads on the name “Island Pilot”;
- a site or account imitating those of Island Pilot.
Disclose the commercial nature of your posts, for example with “affiliate link” or “paid partnership”, as the law requires.
Fraud or a breach results in the cancellation of the commissions concerned and the end of the partnership. Commissions earned fairly remain due.
Taxes and stopping
Section titled “Taxes and stopping”Commissions are your income: you declare them yourself, along with any contributions due. SAUL CORP reports the sums paid to the tax authorities where the law requires it. To stop, write to contact@saulcorp.com.
