01Overview

About the Polar affiliate program

Polar is a Finnish company that pioneered wireless heart rate monitoring and now makes GPS sports watches, fitness trackers and chest straps for runners, cyclists and endurance athletes. It is known for accurate heart rate data and training tools aimed at serious amateurs.

The program available through LinkApprove covers German orders. Every order pays at least €3.77 and up to €9.06, and average baskets around €137 mean each conversion is worth more than a typical fitness accessory sale. Training and gear review content fits naturally.

From the LinkApprove network
Polar pays at least €3.77 on every order, so even small strap or accessory orders earn more than they would on a percentage-only program.

06FAQ

Common questions

How much does the Polar affiliate program pay?

The Polar affiliate program pays about 2.8% per sale (paid per order, from €3.77 to €9.06, and estimated from LinkApprove's average commission and order value on the program). Average order value on the program is €137, so commission per conversion is calculated against that basket rather than a single item price.

What is the cookie duration for the Polar affiliate program?

The Polar 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 Polar affiliate program?

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

Which countries does the Polar affiliate program accept?

The Polar program accepts traffic from DE. 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.
