Affiliate Terms of Use
Affiliate Registration & Agreement
As an authorized affiliate (Affiliate) of WP connect (Digital Korner), you agree to abide by the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement (Agreement). Please read the entire Agreement carefully before registering and promoting WP connect (Digital Korner) products as an Affiliate.
Your participation in the Program is solely to legally advertise our website to receive a commission on subscriptions and products purchased by individuals referred to WP connect by your own website or personal referrals.
By signing up for the WP connect Affiliate Program (Program), you indicate your acceptance of this Agreement and its terms and conditions.
Approval or Rejection of the Application
We reserve the right to approve or reject ANY Affiliate Program Application at our sole and absolute discretion. You will have no legal recourse against us for the rejection of your Affiliate Program Application.
Commissions
If a customer purchases a new license subscription through your referral link, you’ll earn a minimum of 20% commission.
Commissions will be paid once a month. For an Affiliate to receive a commission, the referred account must remain active for a minimum of 31 days.
Payments will only be sent for transactions that have been successfully completed. Transactions that result in chargebacks or refunds will not be paid out.
Every month, we pay affiliate commissions directly into your bank account or debit card. The commissions we pay are those that are older than 30 days. Minimum payout balance is $25.00. There’s no maximum payout balance.
You must register your bank account or debit card with our payouts service in order to receive a payout for your referrals.
You cannot refer yourself, and you will not receive a commission on your own accounts. Currently, we do not offer recurring referrals.
Referral cookie lifetime
If a potential customer clicks on your referral link, a cookie is stored in their browser to track your referral. We then store the cookie for 30 days to allow your referred customers to decide if they wish to purchase WP connect’ product, or ask us any questions they may have prior to the sale.
Referrals will not be awarded if the following conditions are met:
- The customer purchases using a different browser than the one they originally used to visit our website (the cookie does not exist in that browser).
- Purchases are made after 30 days (the cookie will expire).
