What does an affiliate do?
An Affiliate is a webmaster or Internet marketer who takes on the role of promoting the Influencer Accelerator Academy products, Influencer Accelerator Academy, the Influencer Accelerator Academy website, or any of our other properties.
How does this affiliate program work?
To participate in the Affiliate Program, you must apply to be an Affiliate, which enables you to create an Affiliate Link. An "Affiliate Link" is defined as a web URL or hyperlink which contains (either within the link or via any redirect or link-cloaking software) the Affiliate's ID with the intention of tracking referred traffic to Influencer Accelerator Academy or any of its properties. When an Affiliate directs or sends a prospective buyer to Influencer Accelerator Academy or related website(s), or any of our other properties via a correctly formatted Affiliate Link and that visitor then purchases a product from Influencer Accelerator Academy or any of our other properties - the Affiliate will receive a commission from Influencer Accelerator Academy or any of our other properties on the sale of that product (the "Commission"). All Commissions are paid in US dollars.
Payments
Due to our refunds policy, we start paying affiliate commissions no sooner than 30 days after consumer’s purchase through your link.
Once you start sharing your affiliate link with others, you will be able to see the following information in the Affiliate Center:
Number of people who have clicked on your links.
Number of sales you've referred.
Chargebacks
If we are charged back (due to a customer refund) at any time up to 12 months from the date of sale, we charge you back for that Commission.
If you have questions about Commissions, message us at affiliates@proudmouth.com
