Barcode Affiliate Program

The IDAutomation Barcode Affiliate Program provides an automated method of reselling IDAutomation barcode software where IDAutomation pays a 15% commission on all IDAutomation software sold from a valid referral link. 

NOTE: The affiliate program requires an ongoing commitment to selling IDAutomation products through an established website. This barcode affiliate program may not be used to purchase products for the affiliate's own company, a sister organization, or any subsidiary.

IDAutomation Affiliate Program Information

How the IDAutomation Barcode Affiliate Program Works

  • Anyone with a website can join the Affiliate Program if the website provides products or services related in some way to IDAutomation products.
  • IDAutomation's product graphics may be used, although original content may not be copied from IDAutomation's website unless it is rewritten. 
  • Once approved, link to any IDAutomation page from your website with a custom URL.
  • Get up to 15% commission for IDAutomation software purchases referred from your links within 3 months.
  • When ordering for another organization, the "Ship To" information on the order must contain the end-user the product is licensed to, not the reseller or affiliate. This is because the products are licensed to the "Ship To" Information.

Payments to the Affiliate

Payment by PayPal will occur quarterly. If multiple affiliates are involved in the same sale, the most recent referrer is given credit. Payment will be made approximately 30 days after each quarter (every 3 months) for commissions earned in that quarter. The ability for affiliates to receive reports in real-time will be added to the system at a future date.

IDAutomation also provides product PAD and XML files for affiliates that know how to use these.
