Affiliayaks programme terms

Lucy & Yak | Version 0.3 | October 2026 

These are the headline terms of Affiliayaks, Lucy & Yak's affiliate programme. If you're approved, we'll send you the full Affiliayaks programme agreement and your offer schedule to read and sign before you start. The signed agreement is the binding contract. If anything here differs from it, the agreement applies. 

Run by: LUCY AND YAK LTD, company number 10850530, Unit 3 Newton Road, Hoyland, Barnsley, South Yorkshire, England S74 0FP, trading as Lucy & Yak. Contact: collabs@lucyandyak.com 

1. Applying 

Anyone can apply. We review each application individually, and applying doesn't guarantee a place. Your partnership only starts once we approve you and you sign the agreement and accept your offer in Shopify Collabs. Accepting Shopify's own terms doesn't count on its own. You must be legally able to enter a contract and meet the eligibility requirements, including minimum age, set out in your offer. 

2. What you get 

You earn 10% commission on eligible net retained sales made through your affiliate link or code. That's the qualifying merchandise value we keep after cancellations, refunds and other adjustments, as set out in your offer. Customers who use your code get 10% off qualifying purchases. We may offer an enhanced rate of 12.5% or 15% to affiliates with a proven record of profitable sales, but only ever in writing, and never automatically or backdated. 

Affiliayaks is non-exclusive and commission-based. There's no purchase required, no fixed fee, no gifting, no minimum posts and no exclusivity. You choose whether and when to promote. Earnings aren't guaranteed. TikTok Shop orders are covered by separate TikTok Shop arrangements, not this programme. 

3. What we ask of you 

Give honest opinions and accurate product information. Label every promotion clearly as advertising, with a prominent "Ad" upfront, and follow ASA/CAP, FTC and platform rules and our disclosure guide. Only promote on the channels approved in your offer. Don't earn commission on your own purchases, use coupon or deal sites or paid ads without our written approval, send spam, or make misleading claims or offers. We'll never ask you to give a false positive opinion. 

4. Getting paid 

Commission is paid through Shopify Collabs once you've activated payouts. It stays pending during a holding period and is adjusted for cancellations, refunds and chargebacks, with every adjustment explained. Your offer sets out the currency, payout threshold, timing and any fees. 

5. Your content 

You own your content. We won't repost it, edit it or use it in ads without your separate, specific permission. 

6. Changes and ending 

Either of us can end the partnership with seven days' written notice. We'll give at least 14 days' written notice of any material change to commission or commercial terms. Commission you've validly earned is never lost because of a change or the partnership ending. 

7. Questions and disputes 

Email collabs@lucyandyak.com. We'll acknowledge your query within five business days and aim to resolve it within 20, and you can ask for a review by someone else on our team. 

8. Privacy and law 

Our programme privacy notice explains how we use your information. These terms and the agreement are governed by the law of England and Wales, without affecting any mandatory rights you have.

 

Affiliayaks programme agreement

Lucy & Yak | Version 0.5 | October 2026

Brand: LUCY AND YAK LTD, company number 10850530, registered office Unit 3 Newton Road, Hoyland, Barnsley, South Yorkshire, England S74 0FP, trading as Lucy & Yak (the Brand).

Affiliate: (the Affiliate).

Approved channels: TikTok, Instagram, Pinterest, Facebook. Offer schedule: October 2026. Programme contact: Affiliayaks team, collabs@lucyandyak.com

This agreement and the completed offer schedule (the schedule), which the Brand supplies before acceptance, set out the terms for taking part in Affiliayaks. Where the schedule expressly varies a commercial term, the schedule takes priority, but it cannot remove commission already earned. Marketing pages and informal messages do not change these terms.

1. Joining

The Brand reviews each application individually. This agreement starts when the Brand approves the Affiliate and the Affiliate expressly accepts this agreement, the schedule and the Collabs offer. Applying, or accepting Shopify's terms, is not on its own acceptance. The Affiliate must be legally able to enter this agreement, meet the schedule's eligibility requirements and Shopify's account and payout requirements, and keep their information accurate. Approval and earnings are not guaranteed.

2. The partnership

Affiliayaks is non-exclusive and commission-based. It requires no purchase and includes no fixed fee, gifting, minimum posts, fixed deliverables or exclusivity. The Affiliate chooses whether and when to promote. Gifting, paid content work or use of the Affiliate's content needs a separate written agreement. Neither party may bind the other or claim an employment, agency or joint venture relationship.

3. Commission and customer discount

3.1 Commission is 10% of eligible net retained sales attributed to the Affiliate, meaning the qualifying merchandise value the Brand keeps after the discounts, refunds and other adjustments in the schedule. The schedule sets out the treatment of tax, shipping, gift cards, subscriptions and product exclusions (which are also reflected in the Collabs offer), the referral window, link and code priority, and how Awin, Mention Me, Comfort Club and other promotions interact.

3.2 Customers using the Affiliate's authorised code get 10% off qualifying purchases, under the schedule's rules. The Affiliate must not promise any other discount or offer unless the Brand authorises it in writing.

3.3 The Brand may offer an enhanced rate of 12.5% or 15% to an Affiliate with a proven record of profitable sales. Increases are never automatic or retrospective, and take effect only once confirmed in a written schedule update.

3.4 Commission is payable only on qualifying website sales attributed to the Affiliate's authorised link or code.

Attribution is not guaranteed for every recommendation, for example across devices or where cookies are restricted. TikTok Shop orders are covered by separate TikTok Shop arrangements, and no sale earns duplicate affiliate commission. The Brand will not change attribution rules retrospectively to remove valid commission. Product suggestions from the Brand do not change eligibility.

4.Honest promotion

4.1 The Affiliate must give honest opinions, claim personal experience only where genuine, check prices, availability and offers before posting, and make no unsupported product, health, environmental, savings or earnings claims. The Brand will never require a false positive opinion.

4.2 Every promotion must be clearly identifiable as advertising before people engage with it, with a prominent "Ad" label upfront and the commission relationship explained where the link appears. A brand tag, code or "affiliate" label alone is not enough. Video and live content must include disclosure in the content itself, spoken where needed. The Affiliate must follow ASA/CAP, FTC and other applicable rules and the Brand's disclosure guide. The Brand may ask for inaccurate or non-compliant content to be corrected or removed.

4.3 The Affiliate may promote only on the approved channels, following platform rules and marketing and privacy laws, and must not: (a) earn commission on their own purchases, create sham transactions, fake engagement, manipulate tracking or impersonate the Brand; (b) use coupon or deal sites, sub-affiliates, browser extensions, or paid search or social ads without the Brand's prior written approval; (c) scrape personal data, send spam, use unauthorised mailing lists, or post in groups without permission; or (d) infringe anyone's rights, disclose confidential programme information, or imply offers the Brand has not authorised.

5. Content and brand assets

The Affiliate owns their original content. The Brand gets no automatic right to repost, edit, sublicense or advertise with it, or to access the Affiliate's advertising accounts. Each use needs separate permission covering scope, duration and any payment. The Affiliate must have permission for any third-party content they use, and may use Brand assets only as authorised for Affiliayaks. No ownership or trademark rights transfer.

6. Payment

6.1 Commission is paid through Collabs under the payment terms in the schedule. The Affiliate must activate payouts and provide the required account and tax information. The Brand remains responsible for valid amounts it owes. Commission is pending during the holding period. Payout timing also depends on billing, payout schedules, minimum balances and the Affiliate's setup. The schedule states the currency, threshold and who pays any fees and conversion charges. The Brand bears its own processing fees, and each party handles its own taxes.

6.2 Cancellations, refunds and chargebacks adjust commission as set out in the schedule. Each adjustment must identify the order, calculation and reason. Commission already paid may be recovered only under the schedule's agreed procedure, with no unexplained debits or blanket forfeiture. Undisputed amounts remain payable.

7. Changes, suspension and ending

7.1 Either party may end this agreement with seven days' written notice. The Brand will give at least 14 days' written notice of changes to commission or other material commercial terms. The Affiliate may stop before a change takes effect, and changes never affect commission already earned.

7.2 The Brand may suspend promotion, tracking or disputed commission where reasonably needed to investigate suspected fraud, serious non-compliance or a material technical or platform problem. Where it lawfully can, it will explain why, let the Affiliate respond, and give an update within 10 business days. Suspension does not cancel valid commission or stop undisputed payments. Shopify may separately restrict accounts under its own terms.

7.3 The Brand may end this agreement immediately for established fraud or serious breach, but will normally ask for a fixable breach to be corrected first. When this agreement ends, the Affiliate must stop new promotion, remove links when asked, and stop using Brand assets except to resolve outstanding matters.

7.4 Valid earned commission survives, subject to agreed adjustments. Clicks made before the end keep their remaining attribution window, and the schedule explains how later orders and final balances are paid if links or codes are disabled. Disputes and final balances are never automatically forfeited. Payment, adjustment, content, data and dispute terms continue after the end where needed.

8. Queries and notices

The Affiliate should raise commission queries with collabs@lucyandyak.com, giving the reference, date and evidence, but no customer payment details. The Brand will acknowledge a query within five business days, aim to resolve it within 20, and offer review by another Brand representative. Formal notices go to the programme email or the Affiliate's recorded email. If delivery fails, they go to another recorded contact or the Brand's registered office.

9. Data, Shopify and law

Each party is responsible for the personal data it processes and must comply with data protection law. The Affiliate must not collect customer data for the Brand without a separate agreement. The Brand's privacy notice explains how it uses Affiliate information. Shopify is not a party to this agreement. If a platform limit prevents the agreed arrangement, the Brand will explain it and agree a lawful alternative, and will not reduce earned commission. This agreement is governed by the law of England and Wales, and disputes are subject to its courts, without overriding mandatory rights. Nothing in it excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.
