Checks and Payments:

All affiliates must meet a $50 threshold requirement minimum worth of commissions in order to receive a check. If you do not meet the threshold, your profit for that month will simply roll over to your next month's earnings. Ultimately, you'll get paid for all your work.

If you have not received a check, please first verify that the address you entered during enrollment is correct and then email our Affiliate Team. Please be sure to include your affiliate Login, the month and the amount of the check in question, and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

What do I do if I receive a check with the incorrect information on it?
Send an email to our Affiliate Team to request a new check. Please be sure to edit your contact information so we can reissue a check with the correct information. You can expect to receive a new check within a few weeks.

How often is my statistics page updated?
We update your stats page daily. Please note, your stats are not real time and will not reflect new members immediately. However, we are currently developing real time credit card processing software which will allow you to keep better track of your orders and earnings.

It appears that not all of my orders are showing on my stats page. What happened?
All orders must be approved before they will show up on your stats and you are given credit. Expect some of these orders to not be approved due to any of the following reasons:
1. The credit card number supplied was incomplete, invalid, or not accepted.
2. There was a typo on the order form.
3. The credit card order was denied.
4. The credit card was reported as lost or stolen.
5. The order was a duplicate.

How do you track visitors from my site?
When visitors arrive at your site, a cookie is placed on their computers identifying them as "belonging" to you. (All affiliate systems use cookie-based identification.)
If the visitor comes to our site and buys from us, that information is recorded along with your affiliate ID -- thus we know when one of "your" visitors buys from us, and we can calculate your commission.
If a visitor doesn't buy from us the same day he was on your site, you may still earn a commission if the visitor comes back to us later. The cookie lasts forever, so you could still make money days or even months later.

Spam:

What forms of promotion can I use?
The majority of our affiliates promote our service by placing our banners on their sites, but you may also join chat rooms, online clubs, etc. Also we encourage our affiliates to promote their own sites by registering them in dating tops and directories.

What is considered spam?
Spam is considered to be any attempt to deliver unsolicited bulk mail over the Internet. Almost all spam is commercial advertising. Potential target lists are created by scanning Usenet postings, stealing Internet mailing lists, or searching the Web for addresses. Such information is gathered with automated searches to retrieve email addresses for spamming.
