About blu.com
History
blu is an electronic-cigarette brand launched in 2009. Lorillard acquired the brand in 2012, and Imperial Tobacco, now Imperial Brands, acquired it in 2015. Its website, blu.com, provides market-specific product information and, where permitted, online retail services. Current product availability and purchasing rules vary by country.
Product Types
The brand offers electronic-cigarette devices and compatible consumables, including rechargeable vaping systems, replacement pods or cartridges, and accessories. Its assortment varies by jurisdiction and changes over time. Many products contain nicotine, which is addictive.
Target Audience
blu's products are intended for adults of legal purchasing age who already smoke or use nicotine products. They are not intended for minors or non-users. Minimum purchasing ages, age-verification requirements, and shipping eligibility depend on local law.
Unique Selling Points
Distinctive characteristics include blu-branded devices and compatible consumable systems, with product formats and specifications tailored to individual markets. Compatibility should be checked for each device generation. These characteristics do not establish that the products are safe or approved smoking-cessation treatments.

Special Features
- No current affiliate-exclusive promotions, commission boosts, or merchant-specific tools have been verified.
- Availability through Sovrn Commerce, if offered, should not be interpreted as an exclusive partnership or guaranteed publisher acceptance.

Unique Products
blu offers proprietary devices and compatible refill systems, with product names, flavors, nicotine strengths, and availability varying by country. Refills are not necessarily interchangeable across device generations. Current inventory and product popularity have not been independently verified.
Marketing Tips
Content Ideas
- Publish factual, adult-oriented explanations of vaping-device terminology and nicotine addiction risks without encouraging purchases or presenting vaping as harmless.
- Create an educational guide to applicable age restrictions, product warnings, and regional vaping regulations, distinguishing legal requirements from retailer policies.
- Explain affiliate disclosures and tracking transparency, clearly identifying any commercial relationship with Sovrn Commerce.
Promotional Strategies
- I can provide compliance-focused publishing guidance, but not strategies designed to increase sales of vaping or nicotine products.
- Before publishing monetized content, verify with Sovrn Commerce whether blu.com is currently available for your account and territory; its participation and current program terms are not verified here.
- Have proposed content reviewed for applicable tobacco-advertising laws and platform restrictions. An affiliate arrangement does not override advertising prohibitions.
Best Practices
- Do not target minors, use youth-oriented imagery, or characterize nicotine products as safe, risk-free, or approved smoking-cessation treatments.
- Disclose affiliate relationships clearly and prominently. Confirm applicable warning, audience, and age-restriction requirements rather than assuming an age gate makes promotion lawful.
- Verify any commission, cookie-duration, offer, and permitted-placement information directly with Sovrn Commerce before making claims; do not promise immediate merchant access, exclusive deals, or guaranteed approval.
Target Audience
Ideal Customer
Existing adult smokers and adult nicotine users who meet the legal purchasing age in their jurisdiction and are seeking information about blu devices, compatible refills, and accessories. These products are not intended for minors or people who do not already use nicotine. Nicotine is addictive, and vaping is not risk-free.

Promotional Opportunities
- I cannot provide promotional strategies for nicotine or vaping products.
- Current blu.com participation in Sovrn Commerce, affiliate promotions, and merchant-specific terms have not been independently verified. Do not assume that immediate merchant access or exclusive offers are available.
Compliance and Policies
Key Rules
- Nicotine is addictive. Content involving vaping products must comply with applicable tobacco, nicotine, advertising, and consumer-protection laws.
- Observe the legal purchasing age in each jurisdiction. In the United States, tobacco and e-cigarette sales are restricted to adults aged 21 or older; other jurisdictions have different requirements.
- Clearly and conspicuously disclose any affiliate compensation or other material relationship wherever legally required.
- Do not make unsupported smoking-cessation, health, safety, or reduced-risk claims. Product-specific claims may require regulatory authorization.
- Do not claim that blu.com partners with Sovrn Commerce, or describe the partnership as exclusive, without current confirmation.
- If evaluating merchant availability through Sovrn Commerce, confirm the relevant country storefront, publisher eligibility, product restrictions, and current merchant terms directly with Sovrn before publishing affiliate content.
Restricted Methods
- Marketing to minors, using youth-oriented imagery or messaging, or bypassing age-verification requirements.
- Advertising or facilitating transactions where the products, sales channel, delivery method, or advertising activity are prohibited.
- Using misleading endorsements, undisclosed sponsored placements, or unsubstantiated medical claims.
- Assuming that paid search, trademark bidding, social media, email, coupons, or incentivized traffic are permitted. These methods may be restricted by law, platform policies, or merchant terms; blu.com's specific Sovrn restrictions have not been verified.
- Representing unverified affiliate promotions, commission increases, or merchant approval as established facts.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I join blu.com's affiliate program?
blu.com sells vaping and nicotine products, so I can’t provide enrollment instructions or help promote its affiliate program. I also cannot verify that blu.com currently partners with Sovrn Commerce or is available exclusively through Sovrn.
What commission rates does blu.com offer?
I do not have verified, current commission rates for blu.com through Sovrn Commerce. Any claimed rates, category differences, or commission boosts would require confirmation from current official terms.
How often does blu.com pay commissions through Sovrn?
I cannot verify a blu.com-specific payment schedule through Sovrn Commerce. Payment timing may depend on applicable account terms, payout thresholds, transaction validation, and adjustments; monthly payments should not be assumed.
What is blu.com's cookie duration?
I do not have a verified cookie duration for blu.com through Sovrn Commerce. A specific attribution window should not be stated without current official program documentation.
Can I promote blu.com on social media?
Do not assume social media promotion is permitted. Nicotine and vaping promotions face jurisdiction-specific legal requirements and substantial platform restrictions, particularly for paid advertising and branded content. Participation in Sovrn Commerce would not override those restrictions, and I cannot provide promotional guidance for nicotine products.
What promotional materials does blu.com provide?
I cannot help develop or facilitate affiliate promotions for nicotine or vaping products. I also cannot verify blu.com's current availability, promotional materials, or partnership status through Sovrn Commerce. Consult Sovrn for its current merchant eligibility and regulated-product policies.
Are there any restrictions on how I can promote blu.com?
Nicotine and vaping advertising is subject to jurisdiction-specific restrictions, age requirements, disclosure obligations, and platform policies. Sovrn Commerce's policies and any applicable merchant terms must also be checked directly; access to a merchant does not establish that a particular promotional method is lawful or permitted.
How do I track my performance with blu.com?
For general account reporting questions, consult Sovrn Commerce's current documentation or support. I cannot verify blu.com-specific reporting availability, supported metrics, reporting delays, or API access, and reporting should not be assumed to update in real time.
Does blu.com offer exclusive deals for affiliates?
I cannot verify any current blu.com affiliate-exclusive deals, commission boosts, or special promotions through Sovrn Commerce. Do not describe such offers as available without confirmation from Sovrn.
What support is available for blu.com affiliates?
Contact Sovrn Commerce for current information about publisher support, account eligibility, technical documentation, and regulated-product policies. Dedicated account management, a publisher community, or blu.com-specific support should not be assumed to be included.
