When you sign up for our affiliate programme we will check everything and approve your affiliate account. Once approved you will have access to a dashboard which allows you to create coupon codes and links.  Your coupon will give people you know 20% off.  Anyone that purchases through your link will be credited to your account (whether or not they use a coupon code). Once credited to your account you will get 10% of their purchase price for the next 2 years. For example: Phil Dunphy purchases £100 of microchips tomorrow using your link. You will get £10 from this purchase. Phil comes back 6 months later and purchases £200 of microchips using any link.  You will get £20 from this purchase.   (Commission is not paid against the VAT included in the purchase)
