Can I use content from your site?

Yes, you can share any content from our website including product images and re-posting from our social channels, but we’d love it if you post your own original content!

What marketing tools are provided by Gesswein?

We provide a user-friendly dashboard where you can create referral links, access seasonal campaign content and media, and explore content suggestions. Gesswein will also create your own affiliate shop collection page featuring your promoted products for you to share with your audiences. Affiliates can submit products to be included on their shop collection through their affiliate dashboard.

What happens if I stop sharing and selling Gesswein products?

If you have not driven sales for over 6 months or do not reach the minimum net annual sales required for the basic affiliate level, we may remove you from the program. You can re-apply to be reactivated. If you need to pause your membership, you can contact us.

I don’t have a website, social media, YouTube account, or other online presence, can I still join as an affiliate?

We require our affiliates to have some platform to promote Gesswein products. If you have a social platform that is not listed
