Affiliate eligibility criteria

Though we'd love to welcome everyone with open arms, it's just not possible. There are so many websites out there and some just aren't appropriate.

Checking your eligibility to become a Boden affiliate is a two-stage process.

Step 1: Affiliate screening

First, you need to apply with Commission Junction. They will then screen you to make sure you are able to join their network.

Affiliate screening saves a lot of time and resources as only applicants that pass this initial screening will be able to apply for the Boden programme. Please note that all applications are screened based on the profile submitted when registering with Commission Junction.

Screening ensures your website is:

  • Aesthetically pleasing and designed to a decent standard
  • Free from any content which maybe deemed offensive or pornographic

Passing this stage will mean you are eligible to join the Commission Junction network. It does not necessarily mean you qualify to become a Boden affiliate.
