If you create your Kobo account on the storebought device, that account is "affiliated", and revenue is kicked back whether you buy your Kobo titles on the web or the device.
If you create your Kobo account via a custom link from the store's website to Kobo, using a custom URL which sends the store's ABA number as a parameter, that account is "affiliated", and revenue is kicked back whether you buy your Kobo titles on the web or the device.
If you buy a Kobo title on the storebought device, that purchase is "affiliated", but if the Kobo account you are using already existed, there was (I think) SUPPOSED to be a way to affiliate the existing Kobo account so that ALL purchases (even web ones) result in revenue for the store.
But I am not aware of any way to affiliate an EXISTING Kobo account in this way.
