Why we built this

The wick is the struggle. The flame is the hope.

We're Andy and Selvia. We've been together since high school.

Around the same time we were thinking about Wick of Hope, we went through real personal hardship. We had a couple of miscarriages. With our first, we saw the heartbeat. Then we were told the news.

Hope is a word everyone can relate to. Everyone sees it differently. For us, it's the hope of one day starting a family.

That's where the name came from. The wick stands for our struggles. The flame stands for hope. Every candle we hand-pour is a reminder that something as small as a flame can make a real impact.

If your audience can feel that, we want you in.

What makes this different

Most candle programs send a code. We send a relationship.

Honest answer: most affiliate programs are a discount link and a 10% rate. Here's what you actually get with us.

01

Hand-poured by us, not a factory.

Every candle that ships to you is poured by us in our London, Ontario studio. Small batches, real ingredients, real care.

02

FSC-certified wooden wicks. Clean ingredients.

100% coconut soy wax blend with no paraffin mixed in, paired with FSC-certified wooden wicks that gently crackle. Clean fragrance and essential oils, free from parabens and phthalates. Non-toxic, GMO-free, no synthetic fillers. Pet and family conscious. Ontario Made certified.

03

A story your audience will feel.

Most candle brands sell scent. We sell what the candle stands for: hope when things get hard. That's not a marketing line. It's why we built this.

A relationship, not a transaction.

Hand-written notes, real check-ins, monthly content angles, seasonal drops. We're trying to build something with you, not just send a code.

Common questions

FAQ

The questions we get asked most. Real answers, no legal-speak.

By your follower count when you join. 10K to 25K is Starter, 25K to 50K is Standard, 50K+ is Premium (by approval). Once we move you up, we don't move you back down.
Right now our program is for 10K and up. If you're close, apply anyway and tell us about your engagement. We make exceptions when the fit is obvious.
Yes, in most cases. We don't do exclusivity contracts. The only thing we ask is that you don't post about a directly competing clean candle brand within 60 days of one of our paid posts. Apply and we'll talk.
Monthly, through Shopify Collabs. You'll set up your payout method (PayPal, bank transfer, or whatever Collabs supports in your country) when you accept the invite.
Yes, your country's advertising standards almost certainly require it. The simplest way: add #ad or #affiliate to any post that uses your code. The FTC requires this in the US, Ad Standards in Canada, and most other markets are similar.
3 to 5 business days. We read every application personally, so we don't auto-approve. If we don't think we're a fit right now, we'll tell you why and keep your application on file.
Both, all of it. Your code works no matter where you post. We just want it to feel honest to your audience and your platform.
