01Overview
About the Sunbasket affiliate program
Sunbasket combines organic meal kits with ready-prepared meals, which broadens its appeal beyond people who actually want to cook. The prepared side converts a time-poor audience that would never buy a recipe box, and that is a genuinely different reader from the meal kit norm.
The flat bounty removes any relationship between order size and payout, and the 30-day window is generous for a food decision. Content that distinguishes the two product lines clearly converts better than treating the brand as a single proposition, because the two lines suit opposite audiences.
The prepared meal line converts a different audience from the recipe kits, so content that separates the two performs better than treating the brand as one proposition. The flat bounty keeps earnings predictable.

06FAQ
Common questions
How much does the Sunbasket affiliate program pay?
The Sunbasket affiliate program pays $30 per new subscriber (flat bounty on a first box order). Average order value on the program is $78, so commission per conversion is calculated against that basket rather than a single item price.
What is the cookie duration for the Sunbasket affiliate program?
The Sunbasket 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 Sunbasket affiliate program?
You can join the Sunbasket affiliate program through LinkApprove without applying to Sunbasket directly. LinkApprove already holds the upstream approval, so once your LinkApprove partner account is approved you can generate tracked links to any Sunbasket product page immediately.
Which countries does the Sunbasket affiliate program accept?
The Sunbasket program accepts traffic from US. 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.
