• Visit the Sainsbury's site

Sainsbury's Supermarkets is the UK's longest standing major food retailing chain, having opened its first store in 1869. Sainsbury’s stands for great products at fair prices and with a simple objective: to serve customers well. The Sainsbury's brand is built upon a heritage of providing customers with healthy, safe, fresh and tasty food. Following the same principles upon which Sainsbury’s Supermarkets is founded; Sainsbury’s have developed a non-food range to offer quality, value and innovation.

Why should I promote Sainsbury’s?

Commission rates are awarded on a 30 days cookie as follows:

•£5.00 per new grocery customer*
•Appliances 2% (currently tracked through Sainsbury’s Kitchen Appliances account, 1160, please ask if you have any questions)
•Home & Garden 3%
•Sport & Leisure 5%
•Technology 2%
•Toys & Games 4%

*A new customer is defined as someone who has not registered to purchase groceries within the last six months

Please note, there will be no cross tracking between the groceries section of the site and the rest of Sainsburys.co.uk for the first few weeks of programme launch

A separate account (1945) is operating groceries on Affiliate Window with a separate trackable link and merchant ID. This is a temporary solution and the two accounts will be combined and only one set of links needed in the near future.

Please join account “Sainsbury’s Groceries” (1945) in order to link through to groceries.

Link to groceries (replace !!!id!!! with your ID)

•A voucher for your first sale! Generate your first sale and as a welcome we’ll send you a £10.00 Sainsbury’s voucher. Simple as that!

•An Online Trolley Dash! One lucky winner will be invited to Sainsbury’s HQ and given a designated amount of time on the site to add as many products to their basket as they can. Their prize is the contents of the basket!

•You choose the prize! If you’ve promoted Sainsbury’s by writing a great blog post, reviewing a product, designing a page, using a content widget or with any other creative work you want to show off and we like what you’ve done then you can choose your prize from this list

Competition Terms and Conditions

The ‘voucher for your first sale’ and ‘Online Trolley Dash’ competitions will run from Monday 10th August to Friday 11th September 2009 inclusive and do not include grocery leads. Prizes will be awarded based on sales which are validated as ‘approved’.

The ‘Online Trolley Dash’ competition winner will be chosen at random from all approved sales generated within the time frame. The more sales you make the higher your chances of being selected.

Entries for the ‘You Choose the Prize’ competition will be on a discretionary first come first serve basis. Entries must include the URL, a screenshot and your affiliate ID and be sent to - sainsburys@affiliatewindow.com

Good luck!

Hi

Just wanted to introduce myself as the Affiliate Manager at Sainsbury's. We're all very excited about the new programme and want to work closely with all affiliates to help you get the most out of it.

You can see what I'm up to and keep up to date with news and information here: Sainsbury's Affiliate Blog

Congratulations on the launch of the affiliate program for this massive brand. Great incentives.

[Barry]

Finally got round to logging in and putting them on my site

I was particularly impressed with the clarification of their dedupe process against their own internal marketing - its fantastic to see it spelled out in black and white - and most of all it looks a fair system.

Well done.

Thanks

Baz

Is the Sainsbury's sales reporting real-time?

I've just noticed a handful of sales going back over the last few days, which have only just appeared in my commissions reports.

[LucyHutchings]

Hi Andrew,

Reporting on the account is live

If you could send me details of your affiliate ID then I can look into this for you

Please email me on lucy.hutchings@affiliatewindow.com

Thanks

Hi Lucy

I must apologise as I failed to take into account the apostrophe in the merchant name Sainsbury's. :blush
My own sales database wasn't updating correctly due to me being a numpty, so sorry for any confusion and thanks for the speedy reply.

[LucyHutchings]

Hi Andrew,

Ah phew glad to hear there isn't an issue! Thanks for letting us know though - if you do need anything or have any questions regarding Sainsbury's feel free to drop me a line

Thanks

Lucy

woo hoo! - made my first sainsburys sale.

Will the £10 voucher be posted out? or is it a voucher code type of affair?

The vouchers will be e-vouchers and will all be sent out when the competition closes on 11th September.

Now that Sainsburys Kitchen Appliances has closed, for products from Sainsburys Kitchen Appliances, do we simply switch links to the Sainsburys program and therefore all Sainsburys Kitchen Appliance products will be present in the Sainsburys feed?

Hi there,

Appliances will go live on the Sainsbury's programme (ID 2339) on Tuesday 29th September.

At this point the feed will also include appliance products and commission will be payable at 2% (Sainsbury's pay including VAT).

I apologise that there is a slight time gap, in the meantinme if you are not already joined up to the sainsbury's account you can sign up in preparation for when the appliances category is live.

If you have any questions please feel free to get in touch.

Thanks,
Anjulie

Yes, I do have a question.

Why is Sainsburys Kitchen Appliances being closed prior to appliances being available via the Sainsburys program? I am not impressed.

can't appliances be split out from the main feed via a separate feed? It doesn't make sense to include kitchen appliances with gift items
