2. How does the Affiliate Program work?
The ReliaCredit Affiliate Program allows you to earn income by referring customers to our website when those customers purchase products, subject to the affiliate agreement terms and conditions. This is done by placing advertisement, banners, text links and other links directed to our site. Each time a customer purchases one of our offered products, you as an affiliate earn a commission fee based on the commission structure for that product. (See commission table). Each month you will receive a check for the fees earned from the sales generated by your links to our site. This is easy and can be profitable!
