You do not need any technical knowledge, and you do not need to keep the confirmation page open.<\/div>\n<h2>Quick answer<\/h2>\n<p><strong>After you apply, your application goes into a review queue and you are taken straight back to the Affiliate Dashboard page, where it shows as pending. Nothing is approved automatically &mdash; someone on the team reads every application. Once you are approved you receive an email, and that same page turns into your full affiliate dashboard with your referral link, statistics, referrals and payouts.<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure style=\"margin:28px 0 42px;\"><video controls preload=\"metadata\" style=\"width:100%;aspect-ratio:16\/9;border:0;border-radius:10px;box-shadow:0 5px 25px rgba(0,0,0,0.12);display:block;background:#000;\" src=\"https:\/\/mymahotsav.com\/kb-img\/what-happens-after-you-apply-to-become-an-utsav-affiliate-mtm44zuy-walkthrough.mp4\">Your browser cannot play this video.

If a sign-in box appears where the dashboard should be, you are simply signed out &mdash; sign in and open the link again.<\/li>\n<li>Open <strong>Utsav Affiliates<\/strong> from the top menu, then <strong>Affiliates &rsaquo; Affiliate Dashboard<\/strong>. The direct link is <strong>https:\/\/mymahotsav.com\/utsav-affiliates\/affiliate-dashboard\/<\/strong> &mdash; this is the one page you will use from now on.<\/li>\n<li>Have the email address on your account to hand, and make sure you can open that mailbox.

It is the same link every time, so you can bookmark it now.<\/div>\n<h2>Step 1 &mdash; You land back on your Affiliate Dashboard<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Fill in the Affiliate Registration form and select <strong>Register<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>You are taken straight back to the <strong>Affiliate Dashboard<\/strong> page. That redirect <em>is<\/em> the confirmation &mdash; there is no separate &ldquo;thank you&rdquo; screen to save.<\/li>\n<li>While your application is being read, this page shows a short line telling you that your affiliate account is pending approval. There is nothing to click and nothing more to send.<\/li>\n<li>Once the team approves you, the very same address opens the dashboard below, with a menu down the left for <strong>Affiliate URLs<\/strong>, <strong>Statistics<\/strong>, <strong>Graphs<\/strong>, <strong>Referrals<\/strong>, <strong>Payouts<\/strong>, <strong>Visits<\/strong>, <strong>Creatives<\/strong>, <strong>Order Details<\/strong>, <strong>Lifetime Customers<\/strong>, <strong>Direct Links<\/strong> and the <strong>Affiliate Leaderboard<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<figure style=\"margin:34px auto 42px;text-align:center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mymahotsav.com\/kb-img\/what-happens-after-you-apply-to-become-an-utsav-affiliate-mtm44zuy-01.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Click to view full size\" class=\"docbot-zoom\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-radius:10px;box-shadow:0 5px 25px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.1);border:1px solid rgba(0,0,0,0.06);display:block;max-width:100%;height:auto;margin:0 auto;cursor:zoom-in;\" src=\"https:\/\/mymahotsav.com\/kb-img\/what-happens-after-you-apply-to-become-an-utsav-affiliate-mtm44zuy-01.png\" alt=\"The Affiliate Dashboard after approval, showing a welcome heading, Last 30 days and All-time figure cards, and the affiliate menu down the left\" \/><\/a><figcaption style=\"margin-top:14px;font-size:0.9em;color:#6b7280;line-height:1.55;\">The Affiliate Dashboard as an approved affiliate sees it. Until you are approved, this same page shows a short &ldquo;pending approval&rdquo; line instead of these cards.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Step 2 &mdash; Watch your status move from pending to active<\/h2>\n<p>Your application carries one of four statuses. You never set these yourself &mdash; the team does &mdash; but knowing what each one means saves a lot of guessing:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Pending<\/strong> &mdash; your application has arrived and is waiting to be read. This is where every new applicant starts. No referral link is issued yet.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Active<\/strong> &mdash; you have been approved. The full dashboard, your referral link and your earnings all become available.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Inactive<\/strong> &mdash; an affiliate account that has been paused. The affiliate tools stop being available and new referrals are not credited while it stays that way.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Rejected<\/strong> &mdash; the application was not accepted this time. The affiliate tools do not appear, and you are welcome to ask the team what would make a future application stronger.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once you are active, open the dashboard whenever you like to see how you are doing. The <strong>Last 30 days<\/strong> row covers recent activity and the <strong>All-time<\/strong> row covers everything since you joined, with <strong>Unpaid Earnings<\/strong> and <strong>Total Earnings<\/strong> side by side and a <strong>Recent referral activity<\/strong> table underneath. A brand-new affiliate sees zeros in every card &mdash; that is normal, and the figures only move once someone uses your link.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"margin:34px auto 42px;text-align:center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mymahotsav.com\/kb-img\/what-happens-after-you-apply-to-become-an-utsav-affiliate-mtm44zuy-02.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Click to view full size\" class=\"docbot-zoom\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-radius:10px;box-shadow:0 5px 25px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.1);border:1px solid rgba(0,0,0,0.06);display:block;max-width:100%;height:auto;margin:0 auto;cursor:zoom-in;\" src=\"https:\/\/mymahotsav.com\/kb-img\/what-happens-after-you-apply-to-become-an-utsav-affiliate-mtm44zuy-02.png\" alt=\"The same approved Affiliate Dashboard showing Referrals, Visits, Conversion Rate, Unpaid Referrals, Paid Referrals, Unpaid Earnings and Total Earnings cards\" \/><\/a><figcaption style=\"margin-top:14px;font-size:0.9em;color:#6b7280;line-height:1.55;\">The same dashboard, close up on the figures.

It is filled in for you when you are approved.<\/li>\n<li>Under <strong>Referral URL<\/strong>, use <strong>Copy link<\/strong> to copy the link you share with your audience, or select the QR code image to save, print or share the same link as a code.<\/li>\n<li>Scroll to <strong>Referral URL generator<\/strong> if you want to point people at a particular page rather than the front page: paste the page address into <strong>Page URL<\/strong>, add an optional <strong>Campaign name<\/strong> to keep track of where sign-ups came from, and copy the generated referral link.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<figure style=\"margin:34px auto 42px;text-align:center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mymahotsav.com\/kb-img\/what-happens-after-you-apply-to-become-an-utsav-affiliate-mtm44zuy-03.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Click to view full size\" class=\"docbot-zoom\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-radius:10px;box-shadow:0 5px 25px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.1);border:1px solid rgba(0,0,0,0.06);display:block;max-width:100%;height:auto;margin:0 auto;cursor:zoom-in;\" src=\"https:\/\/mymahotsav.com\/kb-img\/what-happens-after-you-apply-to-become-an-utsav-affiliate-mtm44zuy-03.png\" alt=\"The Affiliate URLs screen showing the custom slug field, the referral URL with a Copy link control, a QR code, and the referral URL generator\" \/><\/a><figcaption style=\"margin-top:14px;font-size:0.9em;color:#6b7280;line-height:1.55;\">The Affiliate URLs screen: your custom slug, your referral link with Copy link and a QR code, and the referral URL generator below.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Step 4 &mdash; See how you compare on the Affiliate Leaderboard<\/h2>\n<p>Select <strong>Affiliate Leaderboard<\/strong> at the bottom of the menu. It lists affiliates in order of earnings, with referrals, earnings and visits under each name. Read the note at the top carefully: the leaderboard counts <strong>only earnings that have already been paid out<\/strong>, so a referral that is still sitting in your Unpaid Earnings shows here as zero. A new affiliate will see their name with zeros for a while &mdash; that is the leaderboard waiting for a payout, not a mistake.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"margin:34px auto 42px;text-align:center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mymahotsav.com\/kb-img\/what-happens-after-you-apply-to-become-an-utsav-affiliate-mtm44zuy-04.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Click to view full size\" class=\"docbot-zoom\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-radius:10px;box-shadow:0 5px 25px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.1);border:1px solid rgba(0,0,0,0.06);display:block;max-width:100%;height:auto;margin:0 auto;cursor:zoom-in;\" src=\"https:\/\/mymahotsav.com\/kb-img\/what-happens-after-you-apply-to-become-an-utsav-affiliate-mtm44zuy-04.png\" alt=\"The Affiliate Leaderboard page listing three affiliates in order, each with referrals, earnings and visits shown underneath\" \/><\/a><figcaption style=\"margin-top:14px;font-size:0.9em;color:#6b7280;line-height:1.55;\">The Affiliate Leaderboard, ranked by earnings already paid out &mdash; unpaid referrals are not counted here yet.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Step 5 &mdash; Why the Affiliate Registration page looks empty afterwards<\/h2>\n<p>If you go back to the <strong>Affiliate Registration<\/strong> page after applying, you will find the heading with nothing underneath it. This catches people out, so it is worth saying plainly: <strong>the empty page is not a fault and your application has not been lost.<\/strong> The form only appears for members who do not yet have an affiliate account. Once yours exists &mdash; pending, active or otherwise &mdash; there is nothing left for that page to show you, so it hides the form to stop you applying twice.<\/p>\n<p>Go to <strong>Affiliates &rsaquo; Affiliate Dashboard<\/strong> instead. That is where your status and, once you are approved, all your affiliate tools live.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"margin:34px auto 42px;text-align:center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mymahotsav.com\/kb-img\/what-happens-after-you-apply-to-become-an-utsav-affiliate-mtm44zuy-05.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Click to view full size\" class=\"docbot-zoom\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-radius:10px;box-shadow:0 5px 25px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.1);border:1px solid rgba(0,0,0,0.06);display:block;max-width:100%;height:auto;margin:0 auto;cursor:zoom-in;\" src=\"https:\/\/mymahotsav.com\/kb-img\/what-happens-after-you-apply-to-become-an-utsav-affiliate-mtm44zuy-05.png\" alt=\"The Affiliate Registration page showing only its heading, with no form underneath, because this member has already applied\" \/><\/a><figcaption style=\"margin-top:14px;font-size:0.9em;color:#6b7280;line-height:1.55;\">The Affiliate Registration page once you have already applied &mdash; the heading stays, but the form is gone. Nothing is wrong.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Tips and best practices<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Bookmark the Affiliate Dashboard link. It is the single place that tells you where your application stands, so you never have to hunt through menus to check.<\/li>\n<li>Keep an eye on the mailbox attached to your account, including the spam and promotions folders. Approval news arrives there first.<\/li>\n<li>Do not send a second application while the first is pending &mdash; it does not speed anything up, and the registration form is hidden from you anyway once an application exists.<\/li>\n<li>Plan your promotion while you wait. Decide which pages you will share and what you will say, so you can start the day you are approved.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div style=\"background:#eef8f0;border-left:4px solid #2e9e5b;border-radius:8px;padding:14px 18px;margin:22px 0;line-height:1.6;\">&#127919; <strong>Best practice<\/strong><br \/>Applications are read by a person, so the detail you gave about your website and how you plan to promote MyMahotsav does the work for you. A real link and a specific plan &mdash; the audience you reach, where you will post, roughly how often &mdash; is far easier to approve than a blank field or &ldquo;social media&rdquo;.<\/div>\n<div style=\"background:#fff6f1;border-left:4px solid #e0592b;border-radius:8px;padding:14px 18px;margin:22px 0;line-height:1.6;\">&#128161; <strong>Tip<\/strong><br \/>Once you are approved, add a <strong>Campaign name<\/strong> in the referral URL generator for each place you share your link &mdash; one for your newsletter, one for a group, one for a blog post. Your statistics then tell you which one is actually bringing people in.<\/div>\n<h2>Troubleshooting<\/h2>\n<h3>Your dashboard still says your affiliate account is pending approval<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Cause:<\/strong> Every application is reviewed by hand and nothing is approved automatically, so a pending status simply means yours has not been reached yet. There is no fixed turnaround.<br \/>\n<strong>Fix:<\/strong> Leave it with us and check the dashboard again in a day or two, along with the mailbox on your account. Do not reapply &mdash; it will not move you up the queue.<br \/>\n<strong>Escalate if:<\/strong> Several days have passed with no email and no change on the dashboard. Contact support with your account email address and roughly when you applied, and the team will look up your application.<\/p>\n<h3>A sign-in box appears instead of your dashboard<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Cause:<\/strong> You are signed out, or you are signed in to a different MyMahotsav account from the one you applied with.<br \/>\n<strong>Fix:<\/strong> Sign in with the account you used to apply, then open the Affiliate Dashboard link again. If you are not sure which account that was, check which mailbox received your registration email.<br \/>\n<strong>Escalate if:<\/strong> You are certain you are signed in to the right account and the sign-in box keeps returning. Contact support &mdash; do not create a second account to get around it, as your application is tied to the first one.<\/p>\n<h3>No approval email has arrived<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Cause:<\/strong> The message went to a spam or promotions folder, or the address on your account is one you no longer read.<br \/>\n<strong>Fix:<\/strong> Search that mailbox for MyMahotsav and check the spam and promotions folders. You do not have to rely on the email at all &mdash; sign in and open the Affiliate Dashboard, which always shows your current status.<br \/>\n<strong>Escalate if:<\/strong> The dashboard shows you as approved but you cannot receive email from us at all. Ask support to update the address on your account, so that payout and referral notices reach you.<\/p>\n<h3>Your application was not accepted<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Cause:<\/strong> The reviewer did not have enough to go on &mdash; usually a missing or broken website address, or no real detail about how you planned to promote MyMahotsav &mdash; or the site you gave was not a fit for our audience.<br \/>\n<strong>Fix:<\/strong> Get in touch with support and ask what would strengthen a fresh application. Tidy up the page or profile you plan to promote from, then ask the team to consider you again.<br \/>\n<strong>Escalate if:<\/strong> You believe the decision was made in error, or you never received any notice of it. Support can check the record on your account and explain the outcome.<\/p>\n<h2>FAQ<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Q: How is my application reviewed?<\/strong><br \/>\nA: A member of the team opens your application and reads what you submitted &mdash; principally the website or page you gave and your answer to how you plan to promote MyMahotsav. They are checking that the site is genuine, that it fits our audience, and that your promotion plan is a real one. There is no automatic check and no score to beat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: How will I know if I&rsquo;m approved?<\/strong><br \/>\nA: You receive an email at the address on your account. You can also check at any time without waiting for it: sign in and open <strong>Affiliates &rsaquo; Affiliate Dashboard<\/strong>. If the pending line has been replaced by the dashboard with Affiliate URLs, Statistics, Referrals and Payouts down the left, you are approved.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: What if my application is rejected?<\/strong><br \/>\nA: The affiliate tools will not appear on your dashboard, and your MyMahotsav account is otherwise unaffected &mdash; you keep everything else you use on the site. Contact support to ask why and what would help; a clearer website link and a specific promotion plan are the usual things a fresh application needs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: How long does the review take?<\/strong><br \/>\nA: There is no published turnaround, because a person reads each application rather than a system approving them on a timer. Most people simply check back over the next couple of days. If it has been longer than that with no word, contact support rather than reapplying.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Can I use a referral link while my application is pending?<\/strong><br \/>\nA: No. Your custom slug and referral URL are issued when your account becomes active, so the <strong>Affiliate URLs<\/strong> screen is not available to you until then. Any link you invent yourself before that will not be credited to you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Can I apply again if I do not hear back?<\/strong><br \/>\nA: There is no need, and in practice you cannot &mdash; once an application exists on your account the registration form no longer appears for you, which is why that page looks empty. One application is enough; contact support if it has been sitting for a while.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Does applying cost anything?<\/strong><br \/>\nA: No. Applying to Utsav Affiliates is free, there is nothing to pay while you wait, and being turned down costs you nothing either.<\/p>\n<div style=\"display:none\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-mahi=\"context\">\nAlso asked as: what happens after I apply to be an Utsav affiliate; how long does affiliate approval take on MyMahotsav; my affiliate account is pending approval what now; how do I know if my affiliate application was approved; where do I check my affiliate application status; why is the Affiliate Registration page blank after applying; what does pending, active, inactive or rejected mean for an affiliate; what if my Utsav Affiliates application is rejected; do I get an email when my affiliate application is approved; can I reapply to become an Utsav affiliate. Applies to: Utsav Affiliates &mdash; affiliate application review, approval and account activation (Affiliate Approval &amp; Management). Where to find it: Utsav Affiliates top menu &gt; Affiliates &gt; Affiliate Dashboard, direct link https:\/\/mymahotsav.com\/utsav-affiliates\/affiliate-dashboard\/ ; the apply form lives at https:\/\/mymahotsav.com\/utsav-affiliates\/affiliate-registration\/ and is hidden once you already have an application. Canonical facts: submitting the Affiliate Registration form redirects the applicant straight back to the Affiliate Dashboard page &mdash; that redirect is the only confirmation screen; approval is never automatic, every application is reviewed by hand, so a new applicant always starts as pending; while pending, the Affiliate Dashboard page shows a short line saying the affiliate account is pending approval, with no affiliate tools; the four statuses are pending, active, inactive and rejected; once active, the same URL shows the full dashboard with Affiliate Dashboard, Affiliate URLs, Statistics, Graphs, Referrals, Payouts, Visits, Creatives, Order Details, Lifetime Customers, Direct Links and Affiliate Leaderboard in the left menu; approval is notified by email to the address on the member account, and the dashboard can be checked at any time instead; the Affiliate URLs screen holds the custom slug, the referral URL with Copy link, a QR code and a referral URL generator with an optional campaign name; the Affiliate Leaderboard ranks affiliates by earnings already paid out only, so unpaid referrals show as zero; no review turnaround is published; there is no member-facing screen for reviewing or approving applications &mdash; that is done by the team; applying is free.
