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 and the commission will still be awarded if the cookie is present in their browser and/or the are using the same IP address as the one logged in the database. Affiliate accounts must be active at the time of the referral.
-
Qualified Commission
A "qualified commission" is one for which the new account which is the subject of the commission has remained in good standing continuously for at least 60 days from its inception. WEB5 INDIA shall make all decisions as to whether any commission is a "qualified commission." If at any time within 60 days a customer requests for a refund for any reason, then the transaction will not be eligible to receive an affiliate commission. No commission will be given to your affiliate account for sales that occurred before you joined the affiliate program. WEB5 INDIA does not allow you to purchase the product under your own affiliate link so you can’t get it discounted. If you try to do this, the affiliate commission will be reversed and will result in your affiliate account being removed.
NO COMMISSIONS WILL BE CREDITED FOR DOMAIN REGISTRATIONS, FREE HOSTING ACCOUNTS OR ADD-ON SERVICES. Commissions are paid on new accounts only (current or previous customers of the company are not eligible) and not on any subsequent renewal, upgrade or subsequent signups of a referred customer.
-
Commission Payments
Affiliates are paid a one-time commission of 20% for each hosting account referred to our services. A signup is counted when a customer first clicks on an affiliate referral link, completes the signup process and stays active for 60 days. WEB5 INDIA issues its Affiliate Commission, if the collective eligible payments for a given month meets or exceeds your minimum payout amount of $100. WEB5 INDIA will only pay in US Dollars via PayPal.com on a "Net-60" basis, provided that the order was paid in full and the customer did not request for a refund.
WEB5 INDIA has a "Net-60" payment policy, which means that each earning must mature for at least 60 days before it is eligible for payment. In other words, earnings from a sale in March are eligible for payment in June. WEB5 INDIA uses this time to collect and verify payments. Additionally, we start processing Affiliate commissions on the first business day of each month so your collective March earnings would be paid on the fifth business day of June and your April earnings would be paid on the fifth business day of July, etc. If Affiliate has not earned at least $100.00 in commissions, the amount Affiliate has earned will be carried over to the next month. All affiliate commission payout will be only processed through PayPal.com.

FTC Guidelines - Affiliate Disclosure Requirements:
In December 2009, The Federal Trade Commission ('FTC') released Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising. The guidelines require that any affiliate who uses reviews, rankings or testimonials to promote products must clearly disclose the fact that they receive compensation for doing so. We require all affiliates to comply with these guidelines. Failure to do so may result in removal from our affiliate program and the cancellation of commissions. In order to comply with these guidelines your disclosures must meet four basic requirements. They must be frequent, clear, conspicuous, and require no scrolling or other type of user action to locate the disclosure.
-
Frequent: Your disclosure must appear on any page that has a review, recommendation, comment or article that promotes a product or service for which you receive compensation.
-
Clear: It must be immediately clear that you may receive compensation for your review or rating.
-
Conspicuous: The disclosure must be clear and easy to see. It should begin with the word "disclosure", For the disclosure to be considered clear, the font should be: (a) At least as large as the main text on the page (b) In a color other than black or gray (c) In contrast with both with its background and the main text (d) Darker than its background or the main text.
-
Require No Action: Your disclosure must be immediately evident to a typical visitor to your site who views a review, ranking or endorsement on a PC or Mac monitor. A visitor should not need to scroll, click or hover to learn that you receive compensation. If you do include a clickable link or additional information when a visitor hovers over text, the language of the link itself should reveal the fact that you receive compensation. Keep this in mind: Simply telling the visitor that they can "Click/hover here to read our FTC disclosure" is not adequate. You need to use the word "disclosure" and present the nature of the disclosure.
