Card Art by Helen

Joining Stampin' Up! now involves a simplified, streamlined process that will help you get your journey as a demonstrator off to an even better start.

You'll still choose a current demonstrator as your team leader and pay a fee to join, but instead of choosing a Starter Kit when you sign up, you will receive a coupon code to spend in the online store through your account (which will have been upgraded to give you full access to the demonstrator portal). The value of your coupon code will still be MORE than you paid to join, so you still get more for your money when you sign up!

Let's take a look at how the new process breaks down.
 

Step One: Join

When you sign up as a new demonstrator, you will:

• Choose a team leader
• Read and accept the required legal agreements
• Fill out some personal details
• Pay the $135 fee to submit your application

Step Two: Shop!

Once your application has been reviewed and approved (you shouldn't have long to wait!), you will receive an email with your NEW demonstrator ID and your coupon code.

• Your coupon code, valued at $170, can be redeemed on any order you place as a demonstrator!
• Your order total can be more than your coupon code; you'll just pay the difference.
• Any amount that you spend above the value of your coupon code will be treated just like all other orders you place as a demonstrator. That means it will receive demonstrator discount (20% at first), counts towards your first quarterly minimum, will earn Stampin' Rewards (once over the $25 minimum to qualify), and can also allow you to purchase the Product of the Month ($100+).
• You will also be able to add eight free catalogues to any order (this option does expire after 9 months).

You will also receive a one-time special welcome gift from Stampin' Up! which will included branded merchandise and an exclusive card kit to help you spread the word of your new demonstratorship.

Don't worry if you don't meet the quarterly sales requirement to stay active as a demonstrator. There is still no penalty with nothing to return or repay! If you leave Stampin' Up! for any reason, you can rejoin after 45 days. At that point, you'll be able to choose whether to rejoin with your previous team leader or join a different team. This change applies to current demonstrators too. The only thing to note is that the welcome gift only sent when you join for the first time, so isn't sent if you rejoin later.
 

Paper Pumpkin™ Perk

New demonstrators will also receive a 50% off coupon code for their first Paper Pumpkin kit!

Two months after joining, you will be sent a coupon code by email. That code gives 50% off the first kit in any new subscription. That code will have an expiry date so make sure you plan to redeem it in time! It's a great way to try out Paper Pumpkin yourself as you get started as a demonstrator, making it easier to share it with others.
 

What are you waiting for?

Joining as a Stampin' Up! demonstrator is so much more than getting a discount, although that's great too! You get to join a creative community that celebrates, encourages, and inspires one another. With exclusive benefits such as early access to new products, demonstrator-only training and events, and ongoing inspiration, you'll get to experience shared creativity and meaningful connection, with everything designed to help you get even more from the hobby you love.
