# Move your creator program to Spark! without losing a partner

Bring your partners, commissions and links over, run both programs side by side, and turn the old one off once the last sale is credited. Here is what moves and how.

In plain words

## What does switching to Spark! involve?

Switching to Spark! means setting your affiliate program up again in Chargezen: you create your commission profiles, add each partner, issue them new Spark! tracking links, and run both programs side by side until the old links stop earning. Spark! has no one-click import from another platform, so partners move by invitation, not by file upload.

## How to switch

Four steps. Most of the work is the partner list.

1.  1
    
    ### Export what you have
    
    From your old platform, download your partner list (names, emails, commission rates) and your sales and payout reports. Keep the reports: history stays there.
    
2.  2
    
    ### Set up Spark!
    
    Create a commission profile for each rate you pay, then fund the balance Spark! pays partners from.
    
3.  3
    
    ### Add partners and issue links
    
    Add each partner by name and email with their commission profile, or share your sign-up page so they apply. Then issue each one a new tracking link.
    
4.  4
    
    ### Run both, then switch off
    
    Send the email below, keep the old program running at least as long as its cookie window, settle what it owes, then close it.
    

## What moves, and how

Everything you bring over, how it comes across, and what stays behind.

Moving an affiliate program to Spark!
| Item | How it moves to Spark! |
| --- | --- |
| Partners | Add each one by name and email, or share your program’s sign-up page so they apply. There is no bulk import. |
| Commission rates | Create them again as commission profiles and assign each partner to one. |
| Tracking links | Issue new Spark! links. You can set a custom slug, the landing page and UTM tags. Old links keep crediting your old platform until you turn it off. |
| Payouts | Spark! pays new commissions from a balance you fund. Partners choose bank transfer, PayPal, wire or store credit. |
| What the old platform owes | Settle it there before you close it. Spark! starts counting from the day your new links go live. |
| Sales and payout history | Stays with your old platform. Export the reports before you cancel. |

## Good to know

*   Spark! has no one-click or file import from another platform. Partners move by invitation or by applying through your sign-up page.
*   Spark! is affiliate and creator software, not an affiliate network. It doesn’t bring you new publishers. You bring the partners, and you keep the relationship.
*   Sales made through an old link are credited by your old platform, not by Spark!.

## Common questions

### What does switching to Spark! involve?

You set your affiliate program up again in Chargezen: commission profiles, each partner, and new Spark! tracking links. Then you run both programs side by side until the old links stop earning. Partners move by invitation, not by file upload.

### Can I import my affiliates into Spark!?

Not in bulk. Add each partner by name and email with their commission profile, or share your program’s sign-up page so partners apply themselves.

### Do my partners keep their old links?

No. Each partner gets a new Spark! tracking link. Their old link keeps crediting your old platform until you turn it off, so ask them to swap links early.

### How long should I run both programs?

At least as long as your old platform’s cookie window, so sales from older clicks still get credited there. Then settle what the old platform owes and close it.

### Is Spark! an affiliate network?

No. Spark! is affiliate and creator software: it runs your program with your partners, and it doesn’t sell you access to a pool of publishers or take a cut of your sales.

### How much does Spark! cost?

Spark! is $1,990 per year, or $199 a month month to month, with everything included. Creator spend stays yours: Spark takes no cut of it.
