01Overview

About the IKEA affiliate program

IKEA is the default answer to "where do I furnish this cheaply" in nearly every market it operates in, and that scale is the entire case for the program. Flat-pack furniture, kitchen systems, storage, textiles, and the endless small-basket accessories mean shoppers usually arrive with intent already formed and a cart that fills itself past the product they searched for.

The trade-off is rate and attribution. Three percent on a catalog built around deliberately low prices produces thin per-order commission, and a large share of IKEA's business still happens in-store or through click-and-collect where your link earns nothing at all. Country programs also run separately, so a US link placed in front of a UK audience simply will not track.

From the LinkApprove network
IKEA pulls more search-driven traffic than any other home brand in the LinkApprove network, but its rate is among the lowest we carry, the publishers who make it work do so on volume and basket size, never on the commission itself.

02Conversion

Why IKEA converts

  • Search demand is enormous and mostly bottom-of-funnel, people look up specific product names like BILLY, KALLAX, or PAX rather than browsing categories
  • Baskets build naturally: nobody buys one item, which partially offsets the low rate
  • Storage, kids' rooms, and small-space hacks are evergreen content that does not date the way seasonal decor does
  • Assembly, hacking, and modification content has a durable audience that keeps clicking years after publication

03Audience fit

Which creators this suits

  • Small-space, rental, and first-apartment creators
  • Home organization and storage-hack accounts on Pinterest and TikTok
  • DIY and furniture-flip channels building on IKEA base units

04Getting started

How to join the IKEA affiliate program

  1. 1Create a free LinkApprove partner account and submit your content channels for review.
  2. 2Once approved, usually within two business days, open the program directory and find IKEA.
  3. 3Generate a deep link to any IKEA product page, adding sub-IDs for the platform or campaign you are publishing to.
  4. 4Publish, then track clicks and validated commission in one balance alongside every other program you run.

Because LinkApprove already holds the upstream approval, you do not submit a separate application to IKEA.

05Attribution

When you get paid on this program

How a commission is attributed and paidA click starts a 30-day cookie window. A purchase inside that window is attributed to you. The advertiser then validates the sale over a hold period of 30-60 days before it is released in the next payout run.COOKIE WINDOW · 30DHOLD · 30-60 DAYSClickday 0Purchasewithin 30 daysValidatedadvertiser confirmsPaidnext payout run

06FAQ

Common questions

How much does the IKEA affiliate program pay?

The IKEA affiliate program pays 3% per sale (gift cards, food and beverage, and services such as delivery, assembly, and kitchen planning are not commissionable). Average order value on the program is $180, so commission per conversion is calculated against that basket rather than a single item price.

What is the cookie duration for the IKEA affiliate program?

The IKEA program has a 30-day cookie window. A purchase made after that window has closed is not attributed to you, which is why content timing matters on this program.

How do I join the IKEA affiliate program?

You can join the IKEA affiliate program through LinkApprove without applying to IKEA directly. LinkApprove already holds the upstream approval, so once your LinkApprove partner account is approved you can generate tracked links to any IKEA product page immediately.

Which countries does the IKEA affiliate program accept?

The IKEA program accepts traffic from US, UK, EU, CA. Traffic from outside these regions may not be attributed even when the click is tracked, so check your audience geography before committing content to it.

Home & living

How IKEA compares in its category

Home has the highest average order values in the directory and the longest consideration cycles, so cookie windows of 14 to 30 days matter more here than anywhere else. Room tours, restyling content and before-and-after formats convert disproportionately well.
