Your Questions Answered - Hopefully!
Why should I start my on-line shopping from this website?
Your on-line purchases via links from this website generate small and large commissions for
Dalesdown - These commissions can build into a significant income which can support the new building project and general running
costs.
Does it cost me more to shop from this website?
No, but it could cost you less as there are sometimes special discounts and promotions on
this website.
If I buy from the retailers shown on this website, but place my order by phone or post, does Dalesdown still earn
the commission?
No, we only benefit by on-line ordering
What is the catch?
There isn't one! The retailer gets the attention of Dalesdown's considerable supporter network and Dalesdown gets
paid out of the retailer's marketing budget.
How much money can my on-line purchase generate for Dalesdown?
Each retailer has different rates and terms for the commission but generally Dalesdown can earn from 2% to 12% of the
cost of your order - Excluding VAT and delivery charges. This could be 50p on a £10 book from Amazon or £5 on a £100
elecrical item. A £1500 kitchen gives £60 to Dalesdown. A family holiday can give £80 to Dalesdown.
Some commissions are a fixed fee payable for new customers - Eg. £85 commission for some Insurance policies and £150 for a
mortgage taken out via this website. So it can really benefit Dalesdown if you always start your on-line
shopping from here!

Are the companies displayed on this website recommended by Dalesdown?
No, they have only been selected to provide a wide range of on-line shopping opportunities for you and a fundraising
opportunity for Dalesdown. Do contact us if there are any companies that fail to deliver on
their promises and they may be removed from this website. If you have bought from a company on HelpDalesdown then do email
us a review and we will put it on this website to help others.
If I return direct to a retailer's website that I originally visited via a link on this HelpDalesdown.co.uk website, will
Dalesdown still earn the commission?
This varies according to each retailer's rules so to ensure Dalesdown gets the commission please always start shopping from
this website when you are about to make an online purchase.
Are they building a shopping centre at Dalesdown? ;>)
No, definitely not! This website is the 'Dalesdown Shopping Centre' which is a great place to help Dalesdown by starting
your on-line shopping from here. Dalesdown has started a real building project and full details can be seen on the main
Dalesdown Website: www.dalesdown.org.uk
Why don't some of the picture banners display for some retailers?
You might have a security program running on your PC that is blocking adverts so just turn off the ad blocking until you have
finished shopping. We will be adding text links to the retailer's websites soon to overcome this issue.
What about my 'cookies'?
Technical computer answer - A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes
an anonymous unique identifier. Cookies are used to inform the retailer's web sites that you are a referral from the
'HelpDalesdown.co.uk' web site and this is necessary for commissions to be correctly credited to Dalesdown. Most
windows computers have cookies enabled so they will work fine with this website and the retailer's websites. Mac users may
need to enable cookies for this website and for the retailer's websites.
