Terms and Conditions for Spread Triggered Cards functionality

The following Terms and Conditions shall further apply to the Spread Triggered Cards functionality of Triggeredcards.com and affiliated sites and applications.  If there is any conflict between these Spread Triggered Cards Terms and Conditions and the preceding Terms and Conditions, the preceding Terms and Conditions shall apply.

Use Links Carefully.  You may use your Triggeredcards.com affiliate links anywhere on your web pages or to email the link address to friends. You may place banners or links within your newsletters, within the content of your website, or within other web related content. However, do not send unsolicited email, or "spam" containing your affiliate link. In addition, do not submit your Triggeredcards.com affiliate link address to any search engines (except if you have a special site which sells our forms). You are solely responsible for the consequences of sending unsolicited email or news postings. Please don't do this.  The site may also be advertised "offline" in classified ads, magazines, and newspapers. You may use the graphics and text provided to you by us, or you may create your own as long as they are deemed appropriate according to the conditions above.

Affiliate Tracking.  When a web surfer clicks through your affiliate link, a cookie is set in their browser that contains your affiliate username. Also, their IP address is tracked in the database along with your affiliate name. When this person decides to buy a product, the script will look for this cookie and/or try to match their IP address to identify the affiliate who will be awarded the commission. Visitors sent through your affiliate link may make a purchase later in time (within 30 days) and the commission will still be awarded if the cookie is present in their browser and/or they are using the same IP address as the one logged in the database.

Zero Tolerance Spam Policy.  Spam is defined as any unsolicited email whether commercial or non-commercial in nature. Spam includes, but is not limited to email spam, fax spam and search engine spam. All affiliates are expected to adhere to a strict no spam policy. If you run a newsletter, e-zine, or other kind of bulk email service, you must have evidence that people signed up to receive email from you. Spam complaints will be investigated thoroughly. Any affiliate that engages spam or in promoting prohibited products or services in connection with their site in any way shall have their affiliate account terminated and could lose any or all affiliate commissions due to them. The site owner also shall be held liable for any and all damages and/or losses that may result as a consequence.

How Commissions are Calculated.  You earn a 20% commission on net revnues (defines as gross revenues less taxes and postage) minus 35 cents for purchases via your Triggeredcards.com affiliate link. 

Note: If Triggeredcards.com must refund a customer purchase you received a commission for, the commission you earned for that purchase will be subtracted from future commission earnings. Refunds can occur due to various reasons such as fraud credit card purchase, suspicious order, bank chargebacks etc.

Currently we pay affiliates their commissions using either PayPal or by checks once the earned amount exceeds $25.

Triggeredcards.com reserves the right to modify the terms of commission structure and delivery at any time.
