Payments
We greatly value and appreciate those who recommend and promote our services and products to others.

Any advertised payments to affiliates for referrals, whether a lump sum or a percentage, refer to the gross amount paid by us. What you receive may be slightly less after considering third party processing fees. Payments to affiliates will primary be via PayPal or other means with payments in US dollars, and PayPal or other merchant processing charges a fee for its services. More information can be found at www.paypal.com.
Affiliate payments are made approximately 30 days after the end of the month in which the payment generating transaction occurred. Fraudulent signups associated with an affiliate, or suspicious activity may result in a longer payment period.
