What are the program terms?
Read the full Hot Topic Partner Program Terms & Conditions. These terms also contain our Influencer Guidelines which are provided to help you comply with FTC requirements and our expectations.
Can I use content from your site?
You can share any content from our website including product images, and can re-post or share from our social channels, but we’d love it if you posted your own original content!
How much commission do I earn?
Base commission for the Hot Topic Partner Program is 10% on full-price purchases. Commission may increase during specific promotional periods or on specific product categories. Commission increase opportunities will be communicated to Partners via email.
Is there a limit to how many sales I can earn commission from?
No. The more sales you refer, the more you get paid.
Do I earn commission from the products added to my Storefront? Or from sales of any product on the Hot Topic site?
You can earn commission from almost anything on site, as long as the customer uses your affiliate link! If a customer clicks through your affiliate link, any purchase made within 14 days counts towards your commissions. Customers can navigate anywhere on the page, and make a purchase within 14 days and it'll be attributed back to you accordingly (unless they've clicked through another Creator Club member's link in the meantime). Note: Commissions are paid on net sales (i.e. after returns). Gift cards, gift boxes and charity items and similar items excluded.
How do I get paid?
You will receive an email from our partner, Tremendous, clearly stating that the funds are Brand commissions. The email will come from rewards@reward.tremendous.com. You then need to follow the prompt to collect your funds via bank account or other payment method.
What if I did not receive my payment?
Please reach out to support@htpartnerprogram.com
Who do I contact if I have questions on my commissions, rewards and/or the program?
Please contact support@htpartnerprogram.com
What happens if I stop creating and selling?
If you have not driven sales in 3 months, we may remove you from the program. You will have to reapply to be reactivated. If, for any reason, you need to pause your membership, please email support@htpartnerprogram.com
