Additional Details

Approved Trade members only

Participation is limited to approved Paint Laboratory Trade accounts. Applying does not automatically enroll an account.

Flat 6% commission

There are no tiers. Commission is calculated on qualifying net merchandise sales, excluding shipping, taxes, refunded products and returned products.

Trade pricing can still apply

A referred professional may qualify for normal Trade pricing. The referral program does not require an additional customer discount.

Attribution is tracked through Shopify Collabs

Participants receive an individual tracked link or attribution code. Commission applies to qualifying orders attributed through the active tracking associated with that account.

No permanent ownership of a customer account

Referral commission is based on tracked attribution. A past referral does not make all future purchases by that customer permanently commissionable.

No self referrals

Referral links and codes cannot be used to earn commission on your own purchases or purchases made primarily for your own business.

Codes are for attribution

Unless specifically stated otherwise, referral codes do not provide an additional customer discount.

Normal program review applies

The Paint Laboratory may review, decline or reverse commissions associated with fraudulent orders, misuse, prohibited advertising or other activity that does not reflect a legitimate referral.
