Your start: 25 % for 6 months
Every new affiliate starts on the same tier: your code gives 25 % off for the first 6 months after your first link, no matter how much revenue you refer in that time. Your community has a real reason to use your code from day one, and you do not have to work your way up to a good tier first.
After the starter phase, the revenue you refer sets your discount tier, following the ladder in the next section. If you already bring in enough revenue during the starter phase for the ladder to go above 25 %, the higher value applies right away.
After that, your discount grows with your reach
After the starter phase, the discount of your code follows the revenue you refer through your links. What counts is the revenue of the last 12 months (rolling). The higher the discount, the more revenue the next percentage point costs:
- 5 % to 10 %: every €100 of revenue +1 percentage point
- 10 % to 20 %: every €150 +1 percentage point
- 20 % to 31 %: every €200 +1 percentage point, then the maximum is reached
- 25 %to start, 6 months
- from 5 %then by revenue
- up to 31 %maximum
- 12 monthsrolling

| Revenue through your links (last 12 months) | Discount of your code |
|---|---|
| Starter phase: the first 6 months, whatever the revenue | 25 % |
| then, without revenue | 5 % |
| €500 | 10 % |
| €2,000 | 20 % |
| from €4,200 | 31 % (maximum) |
Your kickback: for the revenue you refer you collect Budnuts Bucks just like on your own purchases (0.1 Bucks per €1).

Frequently asked questions about managing links
Since August you manage your links yourself under My account › Referral links. The questions that come up most often:
- How many links may I have? One to start with. Each link has its own name so you can see which channel brings what, say one for Instagram and one for your newsletter. We unlock more on request, just ask in the chat.
- How much discount does my link give? New affiliates start at 25 % for 6 months. After that your ceiling follows the revenue you referred in the last twelve months, according to the tiers above (5 to 31 %). Your customer account shows until when your starter discount runs. Per link you can choose a value up to that ceiling. Without a requested value the link always tracks the ceiling.
- What does "ceiling" mean? The highest discount your codes may give. It sits with you as the referrer, not with the individual link. If it drops because revenue falls out of the twelve-month window, all links follow automatically.
- Can the code be combined with other vouchers? In part: exactly one main or referral code applies per order, and your code is one of those. The buyer can redeem additional codes on top (for example promotional or welcome codes, where combinable), and Budnuts Bucks as well, those do not count as a voucher. You cannot use your own code yourself.
- Why is a link shown as "paused"? Then we have paused it for the time being, usually after talking to you. The code does not work during that time, the statistics are kept.
- Where do I see what my links have brought in? On the same page, per link: orders, revenue, Bucks. The Bucks land on your account automatically, see Budnuts Bucks.
