Affiliate and partner program

Japan eSIM Affiliate and Partner Program: 5 Ways to Join

Five ways to partner with ESIM KIMONO. Every partner gets a personal code and a commission on paid orders, set in writing before you share a single link.

Nishiki Market food stalls, Kyoto — Creators and reviewers

Shibuya scramble crossing at night, Tokyo — Agencies, hotels and schools

Ameyoko market crowd, Tokyo — Business trips and groups

How partners get paid

Commission on paid orders, after refunds, paid monthly by PayPal or Wise. You get your rate in writing with your code; it depends on your track and monthly orders, and you can decline before sharing a link. A sale counts when your link brought the buyer's first visit to our site in that browser within the last 30 days. There is no partner dashboard yet; a monthly order report comes with each payout.

1. Affiliates: creators and reviewers

For travel blogs, YouTube, TikTok and Japan guides. You get a personal link (esimkimono.com/?aff=YOURCODE), and a free test eSIM if we approve your review request.

2. Travel agencies and tour operators

For agents selling Japan trips. Put your link or QR code in itineraries, booking emails or the trip pack. Whole groups can order together: see tour group eSIMs and terms for agencies.

3. Hotels, hostels, schools and communities

For places that host travelers heading to Japan, language schools and expat groups (eSIM for students). You get a QR code that carries your partner code, plus our printable airport rescue card for the front desk.

4. Business trips and group orders

For companies sending staff to Japan and event organizers. Send dates, headcount and data needs to get a written quote. We answer install questions by email before departure. Hotspot needs: see business trips.

5. Marketplaces and integrations

Email your monthly traveler volume and what you need (links, bulk orders, white label). We reply case by case; there is no public API today.

What your audience gets

The same catalog price as everyone, with no inflated price to discount from. There are no audience discount codes today. Readers who leave their email get $10 of credit held for them; it applies at checkout once we switch it on, and we email them that day.

What every partner agrees to

Our Japan plans run on KDDI 4G and 5G; name it that way. Quote the fair use rule: unlimited runs at up to 10 Mbps with no daily ceiling. Say you are a partner. Make no ranking or price claims without your own test data.

Apply

Email [email protected] with four lines: the track number, your site or company, your country, and your audience size or trips per year. An automatic reply confirms we have it; your code and rate follow by email.
