How do affiliates get paid?
When visitors click through the logo that you have properly linked to our site and purchase supplies or gear from Guitar Center, you will receive up to 8% cash referral fee on the orders (not including returns, shipping and taxes, etc.). CJ will calculate your referral fees and send you a check at the end of each month. If your referral fees total less than $25 for the month, they will accrue your referral fees until you reach the $25 floor and pay you at the end of the corresponding month. All payments will be made in U.S. dollars.

How to keep track of orders made through your site?
You don’t have to keep track of orders. As long as you download the links properly, it can be tracked whether or not a visitor originated directly from your site prior to placing an order. Daily updates are also provided so that you can determine how much money you have earned and which links work best for you. This sophisticated tracking system and ease of reporting results from Guitar Center’s partnership with Commission Junction.

Can you paste links to more than one web page?
Yes, just complete one application and use your unique store identification number for all of your sites. CJ will consolidate your checks and your reports.

Guitar Center strongly recommends using a single unique store identification number since it allows you to receive payments more often.

    Non existent affiliate program

    I have attempted to sign up for Guitar Centre's affiliate program via Commission Junction. My request is still pending 3 months later. No response to any of my emails. Shit service, I hope they go bust.
