Our affiliate program is designed to help you generate income in exchange for referring new clients to our company. Listed below are the terms and conditions associated with our affiliate program.
Payment:
• Affiliates are paid a one-time commission for each sale referred to our services. A signup is counted when a customer first clicks on an affiliate referral link, completes the signup process and completes an order.
• Affiliate accounts must be active at the time of the referral. We cannot credit your affiliate account with past sales.
• All affiliate fees are paid 15 days after the end of the month in which the sale occurred. Once your payment has been processed its status will change from pending to sent. EXAMPLE: All referrals made in January will be paid in February on the 15th.
• Affiliates must generate a balance of $25 or more before their account is eligible for payment.
• Affiliates receive commission payments via Check. For larger affiliates with balances of over $10,000 per month we offer Wire Transfer. To setup your preferred payment method, log in to your affiliate account and click on the edit button next to the payee details section.
• Affiliates are responsible for ensuring that all payee information is up to date in the affiliate system. We are not responsible for lost/stolen payments. There is a $35 charge to re-issue payment and it will be deducted from the affiliate earnings.
