After termination of your Affiliate status and relationship, you agree to remove all the promotional materials referring to MerchantPro from your website and emails, otherwise your actions will be considered trademark infringement and will be punished according to the applicable law.

5. Affiliate performance tracking

When an Internet user clicks on your Affiliate link, a cookie is set in their browser containing your affiliate identification information. When this person decides to acquire a paid service plan on MerchantPro, the script will match their cookie to identify the Affiliate who will be awarded the commission. Visitors sent through your Affiliate link may make a purchase later in time and the commission will still be awarded, if the Visitor has created an account on MerchantPro within a timeframe of 30 days since the customer has been referred to MerchantPro by the Affiliate. The commission is calculated based on the value of orders placed and paid by the referred customers.

6. Commissions

The commissions represent {COMMISION} from the value of the order without taxes and are calculated only for orders that have been placed and paid.

The Affiliate will be paid the commissions, at such time as the account balance is {WITHDRAW_LIMIT}, after submitting a withdrawal request. The payment method is chosen at the discretion of MerchantPro.

MerchantPro can pay you the commissions only based on an invoice issued by you to MerchantPro. The invoice must contain the value of the commissions plus applicable taxes.

MerchantPro reserves the right to organize price discount campaigns or other promotional activities that may influence the prices of the service packages. In these cases, the commissions will be calculated based on the prices of the service packages that apply at the date of the purchase.

If a user referred by the Affiliate requests a refund, the commission paid initially to the Affiliate will be withdrawn from the Affiliate’s payable commissions.

If the Affiliate account and relationship is suspended or terminated due to the Affiliate breaching the terms and conditions of the present Agreement, MerchantPro reserves the right to not pay the Affiliate the commissions.
