01Overview

About the On Running affiliate program

On has built the strongest premium positioning of any running brand listed here. The CloudTec sole is instantly recognizable, the Cloudmonster and Cloudsurfer carry real running credibility, and the Swiss-designed apparel and THE ROGER tennis line pull in an aspirational lifestyle audience that spends more per order. Combined with 7% and an AOV near $180, the per-sale economics are among the best in health and fitness.

The catch is that On is a polarizing shoe. The firm, slotted sole either suits a runner or actively does not, and creators who recommend it broadly generate returns that claw commission back after the sale has already reported. On is also particular about how the brand is presented, so scrappy discount-led content is a poor fit. Approval through LinkApprove removes the separate application, but placement expectations still favor creators with a clean, considered aesthetic.

From the LinkApprove network
On delivers among the highest per-sale commission values in the LinkApprove health and fitness roster thanks to its basket size, but we also see above-average return activity on it. The sole geometry does not suit every runner, and creators who recommend it indiscriminately watch validated earnings fall short of what their click volume promised.

02Conversion

Why On Running converts

  • An AOV near $180 at 7% produces one of the strongest per-sale figures in the category
  • The CloudTec sole is visually distinctive, so the product is recognizable in video and photography without explanation
  • Apparel and lifestyle lines lift basket size well above a single-shoe purchase
  • Premium positioning attracts buyers who are less price-sensitive and less likely to abandon in search of a discount

03Audience fit

Which creators this suits

  • Premium running and performance creators with a strong visual style
  • Lifestyle and athleisure channels covering elevated everyday wear
  • Travel and city-running content where design matters as much as performance

06FAQ

Common questions

How much does the On Running affiliate program pay?

The On Running affiliate program pays 7% per sale (standard rate across footwear and apparel; returns are deducted before validation). 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 On Running affiliate program?

The On Running 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 On Running affiliate program?

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

Which countries does the On Running affiliate program accept?

The On Running 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.
