I've registered, how do I create my first arcade?
When you're logged into your account, click Create new arcade.
What should I call my arcade?
Your arcade should ideally reflect the types of merchants you'll be adding to it, or the people you'll be targetting. e.g. mobilephoneshops, charitysites or smithfamilysites.
Arcade names cannot contain merchant names or Trademarks.

How do I add sites to my arcade?
After you've named your arcade you will be presented with your arcade sign. Click the 'add site' link within the sign. You will be presented with a directory of sites to choose from. Locate the merchant you want to add and click 'Add to arcade'.
Adding endorsements
As you add each merchant you will be prompted to add your own endorsement (except on financial type merchants due to FSA regulations). A good endorsement is your tool to give your favourite merchants a push and therefore help your commissions.
Endorsements or arcade descriptions should not be misleading in anyway. If misleading comments are reported, we may remove the text, the merchant or close the arcade.
If you have the time, you may want to mention specific offers. In this situation you must make sure you remove mention of those offers once they expire.
Promo codes.
Please see the merchant directory description for limitations on the mention of promo codes. This is generally encouraged, but occasionally the merchant prohibits this.
Note, merchants keep us up to date with the latest offers. If a merchant is in your arcade, and an offer is available, this will automatically appear within your endorsement area. If your visitors take up the offer, you will receive commission.

Why can't I add endorsements to financial type missions.
Due to rules laid down by the F.S.A. (Financial Services Authority) you are unable to add personal comments next to financial type merchants.
You are able to add these to your arcade and earn commission from them, but the information displayed will be locked default text as provided by the merchant.
