We have answers:

Q: Who can participate?

Anyone with a SurveyGizmo user account. Yes, even free account users and those who haven’t run a single survey can take part. Need an account? Visit your Affiliate Tab under your Account Settings to activate your affiliate status and get your affiliate ID number (different from your account id).

Q: How does it work?

You link to any page on SurveyGizmo (blog post, article, home page, etc.) or use one of our banner links. The link has a tiny bit of code identifying it as coming from you. When a user clicks that link, we write a cookie to their computer and track when/whether they sign up for a SurveyGizmo account.

Q: What if a referral signs up for a free account but upgrades later?

No problem. If they upgrade to a paid account, you get the same benefit. Your ID is saved at the time an account is created and doesn’t expire. When they become a paid account you’ll get the credit.

Q: When do I get credit for an affiliate signup? How long does this last?

One month and one day after your referral signs up with us. What this means is that when the user is successfully billed for their second month you’ll get the credit. Affiliate rewards are one-time payments and do not recur, but rather than giving you a percentage and having the money trickle in, you get paid upfront.

Q: What if my affiliate signups downgrade?

It’s our job to make our customers happy and keep them around. You get paid upfront after the user’s second payment. If they leave us afterwards, you still keep your referral reward. If they upgrade/signup again later, however, you won’t get the reward again.

Q: How can I track this?

Keep track of everything in the Affiliate tab of your account page. You can check your balance and signups, and you can get the affiliate code and links to place on your site.

Q: When do I get paid?

We send out checks quarterly for everyone with $99 or more in their accounts. If you have less it will stay on the books and you’ll be paid out at the first check cutting when your account is over $99.

Q: I have questions? I have an idea!

Q: Anything else I should know?

Now that you mention it, you should know that a user must come to the site via your affiliate link and not delete their cookie before signing up. That’s the only way we can track this program. In other words, it won’t work to contact us later and say, “Hey, my friend signed up last week, but didn’t have a cookie…” We do our best to make sure the system works smoothly and reliably, but things can go astray, (cookies deleted, switching browsers or computers, etc.) If these things happen, console yourself with the fact there are another 5 trillion internet users who still need the joys of SurveyGizmo userdom.

Also, you should probably read our Affiliate Terms and Conditions.
