What is Affinity Button.com?
Affinity Button.com is an online shopping centre which allows vendors to promote their e-commerce sites to shoppers.

 

The principal works similarly to a shopping mall with shoppers browsing the various retailers. Each vendor is displayed for the shopper on a random basis whilst allowing the shopper to narrow their search to specific types of product.

What is an 'Affinity Button'?
An Affinity Button™ is an icon installed on a Buttonholder's website, desktop or e-mail template which allows direct access to the Affinity Button.com website.

What is the benefit of the Affinity Button.com Shopping Centre?
Every visit to the vendors offering products or services displayed on the AffinityButton.com website made through an Affinity Button will automatically generate a payment to any pre-selected Beneficiary (subject to security rules).

There is no limit to the number of Beneficiaries able to benefit from visits through an Affinity Button™ and there are no geographical constraints – the good causes or projects may be located anywhere in the world. However, an actual payment is not made until the amount due to the Beneficiary has reached £30.

All vendors offering goods and services through the Affinity Button.com website are selected to avoid 'inappropriate' goods or services being offered through the Affinity Button.com website. Every effort is made to ensure that the Affinity Button™ link is 'safe' for all consumers to use irrespective of age.

All vendors on this website are expected to offer high standards of quality and service to consumers.

Who can be a Beneficiary?
