Frequently Asked Questions
What is an Affiliate?
An Affiliate is a friend of Far Canal who would like to earn credit for introducing more people to our great range of t-shirts. Credit earned can be used to buy Far Canal t-shirts.

How does it work?
Sign up as an Affiliate. Then create links and banners from individual designs or the Affiliate area on the site. This will contain your Affiliate ID which is used to give you the credit if someone clicks that link and becomes a customer. Once that customer has created an account, you - the Affiliate - will get credit for everything that customer buys, for ever.

What is Comission?
Comission is the credit that is applied to an affiliates account 30 days after the order is placed from one of your links. No cash alternative is available, all credit can be used in part or full payment for Far Canal t-shirts and other garments. Any Charity design is excluded from the Affiliate Comission scheme.

How do I get people to Far Canal?
Once you are an Affiliate you can create links and banners to put on your own website or in emails to send to your friends and family. These links will contain your Affiliate ID so we can tell who sent that new customer to us. Please do not spam people, we here at Far Canal do not condone or reccomend spam as a form of advertising.

How do I get paid?
You do not get paid as such. Any Affiliate Comission is applied to your account as credit which you can use to pay for Far Canal t-shirts and other garments. You can use your Comission Credit at any time, once it's been applied to your account.

What if I'm a Club or Organisation Member?
The Club Affiliate Scheme works slightly differently to the Individual Affiliate Scheme. As a Club or Organisation, someone from the Club (usually the webmaster and known as the Responsible Person for that Club) must first create the Club Affiliate Account and specify a Keyword for the Club. The RP must then pass the Keyword to the Club Members via the website, email or verbally. This is done to legitimately identify Club Members when they come to Far Canal to create their Customer Account. Once a Club Member has created their Customer Account and made a purchase, the Club will get credit for the purchase and the Club Member will get a 3% discount. The RP for the Club can decide when to use the Credit accrued on the Club Account, the idea being that the Club can claim t-shirts etc to raise more funds for the Club. For example, to use as Raffle prizes at the Club Rally.

Can I earn more Credit?
The more customers you send who make purchases the more credit you can earn. If you have a retail business and would like to take orders for Far Canal or stock Far Canal T-shirts, there are other levels of Affiliate you can take advantage of. Please contact us for details.

How do I create links & banners?
Once you have created your Affiliate Account there will be a 'Create a Link' link on each Product Info page. This will create a link to that Product with your Affiliate ID number embedded in it. You can then send this by email or place it on your website, Facebook or Blog<. Banners are created from within the Affiliate area of the website./p>

I know I've made sales, but they're not showing up?
There is a 30 day processing period before Affiliate Sales are credited to your account. This is to allow for returned orders, failed payments and the like If you believe a sale was made and mopre than 30 days have passed please contact us and we'll see if anything has gone wrong.

How can I see how much credit I've got?
Qualifying Sales will show up in the Affiliate Summary area of the site, showing how much Affiliate Comission you have earned. The amount of Credit available on your account will show up when you sign in as a Customer. The values may differ depending on whether you have spent any credit or sales are still within the 30 day processing period.

I don't know my Club keyword. What can I do??
You'll need to contact your Club Responsible Person (usually the Club webmaster or other committee member). They will furnish you with the Club Keyword. You can choose your Club Association at any time from within your Account Details section of the site, once you have the keyword. If you leave the Club or no longer want to get that 3% discount you can choose 'none' at any time as well.

Where do you get your hair cut?
PCGuru, the Webmaster for Far Canal, hasn't had a hair cut for 3 years. If he were to get a hair cut it would either be Chris the Barber, who's shop is on the block next to PC's house or he'd get the clippers out and do it himself. I have no idea where Garry get's his cut.
