01Overview

About the Trade Coffee affiliate program

Trade Coffee matches customers to independent roasters through a taste quiz rather than selling its own coffee, which gives creators a distinctive angle in a crowded category. The quiz also resolves the main obstacle to buying speciality coffee online, not knowing which of hundreds of roasts to choose.

Coffee is consumed continuously and repurchased on a short cycle, so a converted subscriber represents a genuinely ongoing relationship for the advertiser. That is why the bounty is meaningful relative to a modest basket, and why the category sustains steady rather than seasonal demand.

From the LinkApprove network
The bounty here is large relative to the basket because subscription economics let the advertiser pay more for a first order than most one-off retailers could. The matching quiz converts readers who find speciality coffee choice overwhelming.

06FAQ

Common questions

How much does the Trade Coffee affiliate program pay?

The Trade Coffee affiliate program pays $20 per new subscriber (flat bounty on a first subscription order). Average order value on the program is $40, so commission per conversion is calculated against that basket rather than a single item price.

What is the cookie duration for the Trade Coffee affiliate program?

The Trade Coffee 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 Trade Coffee affiliate program?

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

Which countries does the Trade Coffee affiliate program accept?

The Trade Coffee 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.
