Student Affiliate Program

Earn 15% on Every Purchase Through Your Link

The Chain Gang Student Affiliate Program gives middle and high school students a fun and easy way to earn money. When someone buys any Dookie Chain merchandise through your affiliate link or QR code, you earn 15% of the total sale.

No inventory.
No door-to-door selling.
No handling cash.
Just school spirit — and real earnings.

Parent Permission Required:
All student affiliates must have a parent or guardian sign the permission form before earning commissions.

How It Works

1. Apply to Become an Affiliate

Fill out the quick online application. Students under 18 must have parent approval.

2. Get Your Personal Link & QR Code

Once approved, you will receive:

  • Your unique affiliate link
  • A QR code you can post, share, or print

These automatically track your referrals.

3. Share Your Link Everywhere

Promote your link:

  • At school and sporting events
  • On social media (with parent permission)
  • To friends, classmates, and family
  • In group chats, clubs, and team pages

4. Earn 15% on Every Purchase

Any item bought through your link earns you 15% commission, automatically tracked in your affiliate dashboard.

You can earn on:

  • Chains
  • Accessories
  • New merch as it becomes available
  • Anything on the store, as long as the purchase comes through your link

Earning Example

If a chain costs $35.99, your commission is:

$35.99 × 15% = $5.40 per chain

Selling:

  • 10 chains = $54
  • 25 chains = $135
  • 50 chains = $270

Your earnings grow as you share with more people.
