All commissions will be paid in $US and drawn on a US bank.

If a wholesale or distributor account customer also decides to become an affiliate, commissions will only be paid on their referrals' purchases, but not on the wholesale account customer's purchases.

Commissions are on sales before taxes and shipping charges. No commissions are paid on gift certificate sales, fraudulent orders, orders that are charged back or cancelled, or if items are returned for a refund. In such cases your commission will be voided and reversed on your account. Commissions on an order are payable beginning on the 30th day after an order's payment clears at our bank. Checks are mailed for payable commissions during the first week of each month when your account commissions have accrued to exceed $30.00.

An affiliate's account may be disabled and deleted following 6 months of inactivity, which is defined as no sales generated from the affiliate's link. If an inactive affiliate account is closed and there is at least a $1 balance in the account at that time, a check for the balance in the account will be sent to the affiliate. If the balance is below $1 at the time of closing of the account, that amount will be forfeited.

We hope you enjoy bringing the quality and value of our products to your acquaintances or website visitors and enjoy earning extra money for yourself along the way as our valued affiliate!
