**For the second year running online greetings card site charitycards.co.uk has 
raised £40,000 for its partner charities.**

The site sells everyday and Christmas cards, including charity packs and personalised
cards on behalf of 44 participating charities.

The Greetings Card Company, which runs the site, has just launched an improved version
of the site which includes an affiliate programme. Now any charity can earn income
from any sales generated by visitors from its Web site. The Greetings Card Company
will at no charge create a site branded to fit with the charity’s site, and will
pay 10% of ex-VAT sales generated by driving visitors to the site. Payment to affiliates
is made quarterly, assuming that the commission fee is over £50.
