This Agreement explains how the Program works, how our Affiliates (“Affiliate(s)”; “Partner”; “You”) are paid commissions, what roles & responsibilities are in place (for you & for us!), and a couple of other important details. This Agreement is designed to answer any questions either of us may have, to help us all avoid misunderstandings or miscommunications, and to make sure this is the start of a beautiful relationship!

1. Our Affiliate Program.

Once you apply, agree to these terms we will review your application and determine eligibility for registration, If your application is approved, you will receive a welcome email with additional information & resources, including access to the Affiliate Portal.

 

Purchases via Website

You will also be provided log-in credentials to the Affiliate Portal (“Portal”) along with a unique affiliate link.

 

An “Affiliate Link” is defined as a hyperlink or URL which contains the Partner’s ID with the intention of tracking referred traffic to the Coaches & Company website (www.coachesandcompany.com the “Website”). When you, as an Affiliate, direct or send a prospective buyer to the Website via a correctly formatted referral link and that visitor then purchases a product or service from our Company – the Affiliate will receive a commission from our Company on the sale of that product or service (the “Commission”).

 

Non-Affiliate Link Purchases

When you, as an Affiliate refer an individual to our Company, and that individual completes a purchase and becomes a customer, you, as an Affiliate, will receive a twenty-five percent (25%) commission from our Company on the sale of that service (the “Commission”).

 

If Company’s products are not purchased via an affiliate link, referrals cannot be tracked by the system and will not be paid out. Notification via email will not affect this policy.

 

Need to Know:

• All Commission payouts are delivered via PayPal and in US Dollars and are deposited directly into the bank account you provide to us.
• We process payouts every thirty (30) days. You can reasonably expect to be paid Commissions within sixty (60) days of the customer/client’s purchase through your link or your personal referral, absent any extreme or out of the ordinary circumstances that may affect the payout process.
• We prepare and deliver commission payouts between the 20^th and the 30^th of each month. If there is ever any delay in the payout process, we will notify you via email.
