About the BookKind affiliate scheme
BookKind’s affiliate programme is designed to be simple and rewarding, allowing publishers, authors, influencers and media to earn commission on every sale through referral links on websites, via emails, on social media or through any other channel. We have partnered with Awin, a leading global affiliate marketing network, to provide an easy-to-use-programme that allows for affiliates to create links themselves and commission to be sent straight to their account. Follow the sign-up link if you’d like to become a BookKind affiliate.
Benefits of our scheme
- Attractive commission: Earn higher commission on book sales than almost all highstreet and online booksellers. Publishers will earn 8% for new customers you bring to BookKind, and 5% on customers who return to our site within 365 days. Commission is paid up to 90 days after purchase.
- 30-Day Cookies: Earn commission off sales via your links within 30 days of the initial visit.
- It's free, easy to use and transparent: Find the book, add the link, make commission. It's that simple. Plus, you can see your metrics on the Awin dashboard so you can optimise performance and boost your revenue.
- A suite of ready-made logos and banners: check out our toolkit or get in touch if you require bespoke assets to elevate your content. We ask that you exclude the use of any logos from our charity partners, unless communicated otherwise.
- Over 250k books to choose from: From novels to nonfiction, children's books to crossword books. If you can't find a book you're looking for, we can almost certainly have it added, so drop us a line.
Working with BookKind Charity Partners
Most of the books featured on our site are carefully selected by the BookKind team of literary experts. While we work closely with many of our charity partners to highlight authors and topics that matter to them, unless otherwise noted, these organizations do not specifically recommend or endorse any individual books or products featured.
We welcome affiliates mentioning the causes we support, but affiliates should not suggest our charity partners endorse specific titles unless this has been agreed with the BookKind team.

Validation Payments
Publishers should be aware that BookKind transactions are validated after the point that the order has been dispatched and received by the customer. At present, customers can pre-order books – and may order products that are currently out of stock. This can cause delays in the validation of these transaction types. Publishers will be awarded their commission up to 90 days after the initial order date. BookKind will not pay out commission for cancelled orders or returned items.
Restrictions
Affiliates are prohibited from:
1) bidding on BookKind branded keywords or close variants in paid searches
2) using BookKind brand names in display URLs
3) using BookKind affiliate links from sites containing adult content, on expressly religious or political websites
4) using the BookKind brand name in a way that will bring it into disrepute
5) using any codes that have not been directly issued to them by Monwell Limited (BookKind). Any other codes will result in declined commission
6) use our charity partners’ logos without permission, or suggest that specific titles are endorsed by them
We are strict on these terms and will exclude any affiliates who do not comply
