Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the Nykaa Affiliate Program? What are the benefits of joining NAP?

Nykaa Affiliate Program (NAP) is a program run by Nykaa that allows external content publishers to serve automatic text, image, video, or interactive media advertisements from the Nykaa universe (Nykaa.com, NykaaFashion.com, Nykaaman.com) that are targeted to publishers content and audience and divert traffic to Nykaa.

Nykaa Affiliates can earn every time a user clicks on the affiliate links and makes a purchase on the Nykaa app/website. For example if you are a content creator of a makeup blog, you can choose to advertise popular (precomputed) or curated makeup products from Nykaa.com on your blog to your customers. Your customers get quick access to a collection of curated or automatically suggested makeup products and you make commission when your customers purchase while clicking on those links. These links can be used on social media as well as blogs.
