This agreement describes the entire terms and conditions for participation in the Mysteries on the Net Marketing Affiliate Program. This web site is owned and operated by Management Strategies, Inc. (MSI) In this agreement, the term "Affiliate" refers to you (the applicant). Wherever the agreement refers to "you" or "your," it means "the Affiliate." "We" or "our" refers to MSI.
AFFILIATE SITE
MSI will create a unique URL for you when you submit a complete Affiliate Signup Form.
COMMISSIONS
You will receive 30% of the revenue as a commission from orders placed through your Affiliate Site. For a sale to generate a commission to an Affiliate, the customer must complete the order form and remit full payment for the product ordered.
You will receive 5% of the revenue from orders placed through the Affiliate Sites of those sub-Affiliates (2nd tier affiliates) which you have sponsored into the Affiliate Program. Commissions will only be paid on sales which are made through qualified Affiliate Sites.
Due to an increasing amount of International fraud - this program is now ONLY open to those persons living in the US, Canada, UK, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand.
PAYMENT
MSI will send payment (via check or Paypal) for the applicable commissions on or about the 15th of the month for the previous month's commissions. If any order that generated a referral fee is returned by the customer, or if there are any chargebacks, the amount will be deducted from the next monthly payment.
If there is no subsequent payment, the Affiliate will be invoiced. MSI will only pay commissions of $50 or more. Monthly commissions will be totaled and the payment will be issued when the amount reaches that benchmark.
ORDER FULFILLMENT
MSI will be solely responsible for processing every order placed by a customer on the Affiliate Site.
CUSTOMERS
Customers who purchase products and services through the Affiliate Program will be deemed to be customers of MSI. Accordingly, all MSI rules, policies, and operating procedures concerning customer orders and service will apply to those customers. We may change our policies and operating procedures at any time. Prices and availability of our products and services may vary from time to time. MSI policies will always determine the price paid by the customer.
