Affiliate Program

Become a WorldChristian.com Affiliate and earn money for referrals

• Place links on your site (or in your email newsletter) that point to our bookstore (or directly to specific titles, authors or categories of titles).
• Visitors who click/use these links to our site, will be tracked on our site, and purchases they make, will be credited to your account.
• You will earn a percentage of their purchase in referral fees.

Why consider linking to the WorldChristian.com Bookstore? This is not just about added business for us and earnings for you, but also about giving visitors to your website access to great titles that challenge, inspire, educate and inform.

Most of these titles are For Christians Seeking Understanding by Reading More Widely, chosen to stimulate thought and understanding about missions, history, current trends and the world within which Christians live and serve.

• Giving access to WorldChristian.com resources adds value to your site.
• We offer one of the best selections of discounted titles for WorldChristians anywhere.
• Not only do we offer discounts on single-copy orders (averaging 20% and more), we also give greater discounts on most titles for quantities starting at ten copies per title.
• We ship all over the world.
• Purchasing from us also enables us to financially support grassroots ministry projects around the world.

Main Link Options

You can link to our general Bookstore page (and let visitors coming from your site browse and find their own titles of interest), or directly to specific titles, authors, publishers or subject categories. Please note: you can also put links into emails and newsletters to encourage your friends, supporters or constituency to look at titles you recommend.

1) Link to our general WorldChristian.com Bookstore page

• You may want to simply link to the main page of our online store, instead of to specific titles or authors, etc. Of course you can also place multiple links on any number of pages on your site, and thus increase your chances of earning revenue; see link examples below.

2) Link to specific titles in the WorldChristian.com Bookstore

• Search among the nearly 4,000 titles in our bookstore for specific titles that are particularly appropriate for your web site or email newsletter that fit your current theme or passion.
• List the title(s) on your site (feel free to copy and paste title information and images from our site¹).
• Embedd the appropriate url link into the information (and book image) on your site that points to the chosen title on our site. You could, for example, add the following phrase next to titles that you feature: "Purchase now at a discount from the WorldChristian.com Bookstore" embedding the appropriate url link (see examples below) into the word "WorldChristian.com" (or any other part of such a phrase).
• The link will include both reference information to the title (e.g., the title's Product ID), and your unique Affiliate ID, which we will issue you upon joining.

See specific examples below.

Referral fees

We will pay you five percent of the amount of purchase². We will make payment once a month if your account reaches a credit of U.S. $25 or more--or later once that credit has been reached.

NOTE: If you want to promote certain in-print titles on your website that we do not currently list in our bookstore, we are certainly open to consider adding them--let us know about them.

¹This permission is only granted to WorldChristian Affiliates.
²Amount of purchase excludes shipping charges and any sales tax collected

The url you will see at the top of the page should be: /productdetails.php?product_id=35326. Copy that url to use on your site (or in an email), and add "&aid=555" (without the quotation marks, and substituting "555" with YOUR Affiliate code.
