Recipes and everyday cooking
Kiribath on a Sunday, a weeknight dhal, a curry you have made a hundred times. Show the cooking, not only the finished plate.
For food creators with a US audience
Taprovan Creator Program
Bring a taste of home to more tables. Share Sri Lankan recipes, pantry discoveries and tea-time favourites with your audience, and earn 5% commission on eligible products bought through your link.
Free to join. Applications reviewed individually, usually within a week.
What you could create
Three directions that suit our catalogue. Bring your own if it fits your audience better.
Pantry discoveries and familiar favourites
Open the box and read the label. Explain what Suduru Samba is for, or why one curry powder is roasted and another is not.
Tea breaks, snacks and sharing moments
Ceylon tea, biscuits and sweets. The small ordinary moments an audience recognises straight away.
Why collaborate with Taprovan

- A US audience that can order groceries from us and receive them.
- Authentic engagement — comments and questions that read as real conversation.
- Honest recommendations, including the parts you would change.
Plainly stated
What this program does not include, so nobody applies expecting it.
- No customer discount code comes with this program.
- Product samples are considered individually and are not guaranteed.
- Using your content in Taprovan's own marketing requires a separate written agreement.
- Acceptance is not automatic. Every application is reviewed by a person.
Disclosing the partnership
Required on every post that carries your referral link.
- Put #ad or #TaprovanPartner near the top of the caption, not buried among the tags.
- Say it out loud in video, and keep any on-screen label readable.
- Only claim what you have actually cooked, tasted or used.
- The US FTC endorsement guidelines apply. Follow your platform's own rules as well.
Frequently asked questions
Who can apply?
Food creators whose audience is in the US. We read every application and approve creators individually, so there is no follower threshold to clear — we are looking at the work and the audience together.
Which products earn commission?
Eligible products in seven collections — Biscuits, Snacks & Sweets; BUD TO CUP; Spices & Curry Essentials; Breakfast Cereals & Traditional Sweeteners; Coconut, Oils & Cooking Essentials; Flour & Traditional Mixes; Health & Personal Care — earn 5%. Everything else in the catalogue currently earns 0%. You can still feature other products; they simply will not pay commission.
Do my followers get a discount?
Not through this program. It does not carry an additional customer discount, so please do not promise one. Store-wide offers that are running at the time apply to your audience the same as to anyone else.
Are product samples included?
Samples are considered individually and are not guaranteed. If you have a specific piece in mind that needs particular products, say so in your application or write to us afterwards.
How are referrals and commissions tracked?
Through Shopify Collabs. Your referral link attributes eligible orders for 30 days after a click, and approved commissions sit in a 30-day holding period before they are released for payout.
Can Taprovan reuse my content?
Only under a separate agreement. Joining the program does not give us usage rights to your photos or video. If we would like to use a piece on our own channels, we will ask and agree the terms with you in writing.
What would you create with Taprovan?
Tell us about your work and the people who watch it. Applications go through Shopify Collabs and are reviewed individually.
