COMPENSATION If Your application to become an Affiliate is approved by Marketing Boost, You will receive a unique Affiliate ID. The Affiliate ID will be incorporated within each URL which You will use to advertise Marketing Boost. You will have the opportunity to receive a commission for each sale (“Sale”) that is registered using Your Affiliate ID.
In the event that a prospect (“Prospect”) has multiple Affiliate cookies (“Cookies”), the most recently-acquired Cookie will determine which Affiliate is credited with a Sale. There are some products and services sold that do not have trial periods.
Provided that the Sold Account (as defined below) remains in good status within thirty (30) days from the Sale, You will be paid a commission for each Sold Account that generates a payment to Marketing Boost in a month (“Commission”). Except as otherwise provided herein, Commission payments will be paid on the 1 st and 15 th of each month following Marketing Boost' receipt of payment for a Sold Account, subject to the other terms of this Agreement. In the event the 1 st or 15 th of each month falls on a holiday, Commission payments will be paid on the business day preceding the holiday. All Commission payments are based on the amount of fees received by Marketing Boost, less sales taxes.
The amount of Commissions are as follows:
1. Paid Account: 40% Commission
2. Paid Account Referrals: 10% Commission on sales your affiliate earns
3. Free Account: $10 one time commission*
All Commissions and Bonuses are paid in US Dollars (USD) or otherwise in currencies offered by the payment provider. Some payment methods may incur processing fees that may be deducted from Your Commissions or Legacy Bonus payment. Your combined Commission and Legacy Bonus must equal or exceed 100 Dollars ($100.00) (USD) before You receive a payment from Marketing Boost. If Your combined Commissions and Legacy Bonuses in a 120-day period do not exceed $100.00 (USD) Your Commissions will not be paid and will be forfeited by You to Marketing Boost.
Once a Commission of $100 (USD) or more is earned, You will need to register with our third-party payment provider to receive payment of Commissions. This means You are authorizing third party companies to contact You. Before You can be paid any Commission or Legacy Bonus, You must provide Marketing Boost a completed W-8 or W-9 tax form, as instructed by Marketing Boost, as well as any supporting documentation requested by Marketing Boost or its third-party payment provider. You will be deemed to have permanently waived all rights to Commissions or Legacy Bonuses that were earned more than 120 days before submitting a completed W-8 or W-9 tax form or any ancillary supporting documentation that is requested to confirm the information on your tax form.

Affiliates will not be paid any Commissions or Legacy Bonuses for payments made on Affiliate's own user account(s). Affiliates are not permitted to open a Marketing Boost account under the name of another person or entity, under a fictitious name, or under any name merely for the purpose of obtaining Commissions, Legacy Bonuses or any other compensation. Affiliates may not pay for another person's or entity's account. Affiliates are not permitted to offer cash rebates or other monetary incentives to obtain Sales or Legacy Sales.
Commissions and Legacy Bonuses are paid only for transactions that actually occur between Marketing Boost and a Sale or a Legacy Sale and in which payment is received by Marketing Boost. If payment for a Sold Account or a Legacy Account later results in a refund or chargeback, and if a Commission or Legacy Bonus was paid to You for that Sold Account or Legacy Account payment, then the Commission or Legacy Bonus will be deducted from Your future Commissions and/or Legacy Bonuses.
Commissions for Marketing Boost monthly paid subscriptions are approved to be paid once the subscription has been active for at least 7 days.
Commissions for Marketing Boost annually paid subscriptions are approved to be paid once the subscription has been active for at least 30 days.
Contests and prizes and affiliate commissions If Marketing Boost determines, in its sole and exclusive discretion, that any freemium account or Sale or Legacy Sale was procured fraudulently or new accounts were acquired with the use of incentives or as a result of any violation of this Agreement or applicable law, no contest winnings or Commission or Legacy Bonus will be paid for such Sale or Legacy Sale and, for past sales, such payment amounts shall be deducted from Your future Commissions and Legacy Bonuses, and Marketing Boost may terminate this Agreement immediately, without notice, and without Marketing Boost having any liability to You.
