Affiliate FAQs
The following is our list of current & constantly growing FAQs...
Q. Who can participate?
A. The Instant Wedding Toasts affiliate
program is open to everyone, however we may reject web sites that we determine
are unsuitable. Examples of sites that would NOT qualify are:
Sites that promote sexually explicit material
Sites that promote violence
Sites that promote discrimination based on race, sex, religion, national origin,
physical disability, sexual orientation, or age
Sites that promote illegal activities
Sites that violate intellectual property rights
Q. When do I get paid?
A. Payments are mailed out on or
around the 20th day of the month, for the past months commissions, for
all affiliates. Payments are made directly from ShareASale.
Q. How are orders tracked and credited?
A. Every Instant Wedding Toast banner or text link
includes a tracking code. When a customer visits your site and clicks on a
Instant Wedding Toast banner or text link and completes a purchase, you get
commission on that sale. To receive credit for each sale, the tracking code
must be valid.
Q. Why do you use ShareASale?
A. Some Affiliate
programs have collected a bad name for non-payment and falsification of
tracking reports. In order to ensure maximum transparency between our partners
and ourselves we use ShareASale to audit all tracking of impressions,
click-thrus, and conversions. ShareASale is also Parasite free.
Q. Is there any penalty if a sale
that came from my site is cancelled or rejected?
A. No there isn't, although naturally you don't
get any commission for cancelled sales.
Q. Do I have to pay anything to be an affiliate?
A. It's absolutely FREE to join the
ShareASale network as an affiliate.
Q. How does ShareASale track sales and leads on the Web?
A. ShareASale uses cookies to track leads and
sales that are generated from your website. The cookies are only used to identify affiliate
generated sales, and they do not collect any other information for any other purpose with these
cookies. Upon an event, such as a lead or a sale, they are able to determine the affiliate
who generated the sale and the total
amount of commission to be paid.
Q. How do I see reports on my earnings?
A. You can access your ShareASale account at anytime, 24 hours
a day - 7 days a week, using the username and password that you selected
when signing up. The reporting is all web based, and user-friendly for your convenience.
Q. What are Parasite Marketers and Affiliates?
A. Parasite Marketers are sites that
use underhand tactics to re-direct traffic and steal affiliate codes. For example,
when a person clicks on a link on your site, a Parasite Marketer
creates a pop-up to re-direct your click-thru so they can
replace the affiliate tracking code with their own.
Because ShareASale does not allow
such parasitic affiliate marketers to be members of their system, they can not
replace your code with their own. To learn more about Parasite Marketers and Parasite Affiliates, please

Forums"
