SECTION 6: TERMS OF PARTICIPATION

Participating in the Social Seller’s Independent Promoter Program is for the purpose of advertising the Social Seller’s brand, any referrals You are responsible for via Your code will result in You receiving a commission and applicable bonuses.


The agreement between Social Sellers and You begins once Social Sellers accepts You into the Promoter Program and You creates an Affiliate Id with our program Affiliatly. You will be informed by email if You are not accepted for any reason.


Both parties (Social Sellers and the individual) have the option of terminating the agreement at any time by placing it in writing. A seven (7) day cooling-off period is subject to the final approval.


Should Social Sellers update this policy after the start date of Your Agreement, You will be notified and if You no longer wish to participate You have the option of terminating the agreement without penalty. This will stop Your ability to earn commissions and Your tracking code will be removed.


  • This Agreement is subject to the acceptance of Social Sellers at its headquarters in Brisbane, Australia, through the issuance of welcome email to the provided email address and acceptance into the Systeme.io and Affilatly tracking software. Such acceptance is conditioned upon payment of the activation fee or joining package purchase by the Independent Promoter.

SECTION 7: COMPENSATION

If Your application to become a Promoter is approved by Social Sellers, You will receive a unique Promoter ID. The Promoter ID will need to be incorporated within each URL which You will use to advertise Social Sellers in order for us to be able to track that order to you for commission purposes. You will have the opportunity to receive a commission for each sale (“Sale”) that is registered using Your Promoter ID. You will receive a specific unique tracking code from Affiliatly upon joining that You can give out to Your contacts. You are aware that this software is used to track referrals and to process commissions and as such it is essential that all Your contacts come into our website on this link in order for their purchase to be commissionable to You. Social Sellers reserves the right to refuse a referral upon reasonable grounds such as they were already a customer of Social Sellers or another Independent Promoter prior to their purchase on Your link.


In the event that a prospect (“Prospect”) has multiple Promoter cookies (“Cookies”), the most recently acquired Cookie will determine which Promoter is credited with a Sale. We are not responsible for a loss of sale due to a promoter failing to follow up with a client. There are some products and services sold that do not have trial periods and do not have a commission or remuneration attached.


The amount of Commissions applicable to each product is clearly stated on each product by the two numbers at the end of the SKU number. For example, a challenge may have the SKU code 5DAYALGA40. The two numbers 40 at the end indicates that you receive 40% Commission on this offering. All Sales must be paid in full by credit card prior to the order being processed and accepted by Social Sellers. Commissions and Bonuses are paid only for transactions that actually occur between Social Seller’s and a Sale in which payment is received by Social Sellers. All Sales are subject to acceptance by Social Sellers and the terms of this Agreement and may be cancelled at the discretion of Social Sellers. Commissions and referral bonuses will be calculated after any applicable refund periods have expired and are available as a monetary deposit or as a gift voucher for Your next order.


Provided that the Sale (as defined below) remains in good status within fifteen (15) days from the date of purchase, You will be paid a commission for each sale that generates a payment to Social Sellers (“Commission”). Except as otherwise provided herein, Commission payments will be paid on the 1st and 15th of each month following Social Sellers’ receipt of payment for a Sale, subject to the other terms of this Agreement. In the event the 1st or 15th 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 number of fees received by Social Sellers, less discounts, shipping (if applicable) and taxes.


If payment for a Sale or Account Payment later results in a refund or chargeback, and if a Commission or Bonuses was paid to You for that Sale or Account payment, then the Commission or Bonus will be deducted from the next available commission. If this is not possible Social Sellers reserve the right to direct debit any credit card on file for any outstanding amounts. You will be given seven (7) days written notice if this is to occur. You agree that Social Sellers may deduct, withhold, set-off, or charge to any form of payment You have previously authorized, any amounts You owe or am indebted to Social Sellers for including commission and bonuses paid on refunded transactions.

All commissions and bonuses are paid in Australian Dollars (AUD). You understand that You must be in good standing, and not in violation of the Independent Promoters Agreement, to be eligible for bonuses or commissions from Social Sellers. Some payments may incur processing fees as charged by the payment provider that may be deducted from Your Commission or Bonus payment. Your Combined Commission and Bonuses must equal or exceed Twenty and 00/20 Dollars ($20.00) (AUD) before You can receive a payment from Social Sellers. If Your combined Commissions and Bonuses in a 120-day period do not exceed $20.00 (AUD) Your Commissions will not be paid and will be forfeited. At this point, Social Sellers reserves the right to retract your Promoter link.


Once a Commission of $20 (AUD) or more is earned, You will need to register with our third-party payment provider (PAYPAL ME) to receive payment of Commissions. This means You are authorizing third party companies to contact You. Money sent to the wrong account due to failing to provide Social Sellers with correct deposit details is on the onus of the Independent Promoter and as such can not be retrieved.


Before You can be paid any Commission or Bonuses, You must provide Social Sellers with an ABN Number or completed Form NAT3346, as instructed by Social Sellers, as well as any supporting documentation requested by Social Sellers or its third-party payment provider. If you are not receiving cash Commission payouts and instead using your Commissions and Bonuses to pay for your own products or services with Social Seller’s this information is not required.


You will be deemed to have permanently waived all rights to Commissions or Bonuses that were earned more than 120 days before submitting a completed NAT3346 or ABN number or any ancillary supporting documentation that is requested to confirm the information on your tax form. If You are not a resident of Australia, Social Sellers may withhold tax (including without limitation VAT) where required by applicable law unless a completed NAT3346 is completed and held on file. You are solely responsible for complying with all tax laws in Your respective jurisdiction(s) including, but not limited to, the payment of all required taxes, and filing of all returns and other required documents with, the applicable governing body(ies). You can view and complete a NAT3346 if applicable to you by clicking on the link below.

After you have earned $500 Commission in a calendar month, you will be eligible to apply for “Power Promoter”, a program whereby you can earn increased commissions for promoting Social Sellers products, services and subscriptions. Power Promoters who demonstrate exemplary compliance with all terms of this Agreement and who also maintain 40 unique Social Sellers Website platform paid user accounts on a monthly basis (Social Sellers accounts must be sold at $29 or above) may qualify for “Diamond Promoter” status, which determination shall be in Social Sellers’ sole and exclusive discretion.


If Social Sellers determines, in its sole and exclusive discretion, that any Sale or Account Payment was procured fraudulently, under duress or as a result of any violation of this Agreement or applicable law, no Commission or Bonuses will be paid for such Sale or Account payment and, for past sales, such payment amounts shall be deducted from Your future commissions and Bonuses, and Social Sellers may terminate this Agreement immediately without Social Sellers having any liability to You.
