Our Hypnobabies Store Affiliate program has “Lifetime Commissions” – when a visitor is directed to our Hypnobabies Store by using your Hypnobabies Affiliate Link, their account is linked to you forever since you brought them to our store. This option is very useful because normally this connection is stored as a cookie in the browser and could be cleared by a user clearing their cookies.

Commissions will be void for customers that ask for refunds or credits for their purchase. We reserve the right to disqualify commissions and terminate affiliate accounts for affiliates that refer customers that ask for refunds or credits.

Commission structure is subject to change at our discretion. We will notify all Affiliates 30 days prior to a commission structure change. Commissions earned under the previous structure will be paid under the previous structure. Commissions under the new structure will be paid under the new structure.
