You may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, by giving Us written notice of termination, by U.S. Mail or e-mail. We may terminate this agreement at any time, with or without cause, with or without notice. Failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement may result in immediate cancellation of this Agreement by Us and forfeiture by You of any accrued, unpaid commissions. We will pay any pending commissions owed to You through the Termination Date if a cancellation of this Agreement occurs for any reason other than Your violation of this Agreement.

Subject to the foregoing, You are only eligible to earn commissions on sales occurring during the Term, and commissions earned through the date of termination will remain payable only if the orders are not canceled. We may withhold final payment for a reasonable time to ensure against cancellations.

 Promotion and Order Tracking

We will make available to You an affiliate link that will track purchases and allow You to be paid for affiliate referrals (the “Links” collectively, or “Link” individually). You may use the Link only on the approved Website and no other websites.

You and Company will cooperate in good faith to develop and implement such Links. Each Link will permit recipients to navigate directly to a page on Our website or related site, designated by us via a special tagged link format. You will be solely responsible for integrating the Links into your Website to properly enable sales tracking, and we will not be responsible for your failure to do so, including to the extent such failure may result in any reductions of amounts that would otherwise be paid to You under this Agreement.

You agree to not use the Link for any unlawful purpose or for any purpose prohibited under this Agreement. You further agree to not use the Link:

  1. In any way that could damage the Company’s websites, products, services, or generally the business of the Company;
  2. In violation of any statutes, regulations or guidelines set forth by the Federal Trade Commission;
  3. In violation of any data privacy and security law and regulations
  4. To harass, abuse, or threaten others or otherwise violate the legal rights of others;
  5. To violate the rights of Company’s intellectual property or the intellectual property of any third party;

  10. To unlawfully gather information about others.

Referral Fees

We will pay You referral fees (“Referral Fees”) of 25% of gross sales, that We actually receive from the sale of all products that are purchased by users using the Link (“Qualifying Purchase”). We reserve the right to implement a sliding payment scale for products depending on the number of sales or dollar amount that the affiliate earns. Referral Fees will not be payable on sales otherwise made from Our site or related sites, even if the customer previously made a Qualifying Purchase UNLESS Your 30-day cookie for tracking Qualifying Purchases is still valid in the customer’s browser. Our system utilizes a first-click 30-day cookie meaning your cookie will be valid for 30 days in the customer’s browser and if a Qualifying Purchase is made within the same time frame you will earn a commission. Your affiliate cookie cannot be overridden by another affiliate in the same time frame.

A Qualifying Purchase only includes products which You have been approved to receive Referral Fees for.

Payment Schedule

Referral Fees will be payable within sixty (60) days from the end of each calendar month in which payments are received. Payments are typically made within the first 7 business days of a new calendar month for Referral Fees that are at least thirty (30) days old. For example, a Referral Fee earned on November 21st will be paid out in the first 7 business days of January. This gives sufficient time for customers to request a refund under the 30-day return policy.

You agree that We shall only be liable for payment of Referral Fees for money actually received. You shall not be entitled to any Referral Fees on a sale that is refunded, chargeback, or any sale which We do not receive the money due to credit card abuse, fraud or any other reason. We reserve the right to adjust future Referral Fees paid based on refunds, chargebacks, or fraud or other claims received after You have been paid. We may also ask You to refund Referral Fees for refunds and chargebacks that occur after You have been paid.

We pay affiliates via a PayPal account, provided to us when a member joins. If the PayPal email changes, it is Your responsibility to notify Us to ensure proper payments.  We will not resend payments returned due to incorrect payment email addresses.

We will provide reports of sales for which Referral Fees are payable with each payment. This information is accessible via your affiliate dashboard in Thrivecart.
