Questions

The fine print, unblushed.

How and when do I get paid?

Commission is confirmed once an order passes our 30 day return window, then paid out through our affiliate platform. Every click, sale and payout shows in your dashboard.

What counts toward my tier?

Orders placed with your link or code in a calendar month. Hit 10 and you're a Very Bad Influence for that month. Hit 25 and you're a Worst Influence.

Do I need a big following?

Not at all. Small accounts often have the most loyal readers. If your people trust you, we want to hear from you.

Can I use my own code?

Your code is for your community, so commission isn't paid on your own orders. Approved Bad Influences get their own perks instead.

Do I have to disclose?

Yes. Tag every post #ad or #affiliate so your followers always know. It keeps things honest and follows Canadian advertising rules.

Can I post about Do Not Disturb?

Absolutely. Keep it playful, suggestive and platform friendly, never explicit. Pleasure is nothing to hide.

I'm outside Canada. Can I join?

We ship within Canada only for now. Email hello@badlybehavedbooks.com and we'll keep you in mind as we grow.

Where are the full rules?

Everything is in our Bad Influences program terms.

Bad books. Good nights.
