How do I get started? #
You can apply to join the Flows Trading affiliate program by visiting our Affiliates page.
If you’re approved into the Flows Trading Affiliate program, you’ll be able to log into your affiliate dashboard using the Affiliate Tool. The affiliate dashboard is where you can find information about your affiliate referral link, the traffic and conversions you’re generating through your affiliate referral link, and the payments you’ve received through the affiliate program.
This is also where you’ll receive important communications regarding the program from our affiliate support team.
You should also ensure that your information on file with us, including your email address, is complete, accurate and up-to-date at all times. We may send communications to the email address associated with your account. You will be deemed to have received all notifications, approvals, and other communications sent to that email address, even if the email address associated with your account is no longer current.
What is an affiliate referral link and how do lead submissions work? #
Once you’ve logged into your affiliate dashboard, you’ll be able to find your affiliate referral links. These links are unique to your affiliate account and direct people to the destination you’ve chosen. If someone visits Flows Trading using your link and hasn’t visited before, they’ll be tagged as “referred by you.” This tag will last for a designated number of days (i.e., the cookie window), which is communicated in the affiliate dashboard.
Other things to know about the referral link and leads submitted by affiliates:
- You will only use the linking code we provide without manipulation.
- If someone does not use your approved affiliate link(s) to sign up for a Flows Trading subscription, you will not receive the commission.
- All domains that use your affiliate link must be listed in your affiliate profile and shared with Flows Trading.
- We may choose not to accept a purchase submitted by an affiliate in our reasonable discretion.
- A lead submitted by an affiliate is not considered valid if their first click on the affiliate referral link is after the program agreement has expired or terminated.
- Once we have received the lead information, we may elect to engage with the prospect directly, regardless of whether or not the lead is valid. If a lead is not valid then we may choose to maintain it in our database and we may choose to engage with them. Any engagement between Flows Trading and an affiliate lead will be at Flows Trading’s discretion.
What is the cookie window? #
Your affiliate referral link has a tracking cookie that lasts for a set number of days to allow you to get “credit” when someone uses your link to sign up for Flows Trading and make a subscription purchase.
Any person who clicks on your affiliate link who hasn’t previously visited Flows Trading will be tagged as “referred by you” with this tracking cookie. If they make an eligible subscription purchase within a designated days after being tagged, you’ll be eligible to receive a commission for their first subscription purchase. If someone does not purchase an eligible subscription within the designated cookie window, you will not be eligible for a commission payment, even if they decide to purchase after the time period has expired.
How do I build an affiliate referral link? #
Once your affiliate account has been approved, you can easily create your own referral links to share with your audience.

Enter the page you want to link to (for example,
/pricingor/app).Click Generate URL — your unique affiliate link will appear below.
Copy and share this link anywhere you promote Flows.Trading (social media, blog, videos, etc.).
