This Affiliate Agreement (“Agreement“), dated as of when the “Affiliate” applies for the “Affiliate Program” (the “Effective Date“), is by and between FP Group, LLC, the product owner and product publisher (“FeedbackWhiz” or “we“), and the Affiliate (“Affiliate” or “you“).

WHEREAS, FeedbackWhiz wishes to provide Affiliate a commission for customer referrals (the “Referrals“) pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (the “Affiliate Program“).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, terms, and conditions set forth herein, the parties agree as follows:

1. Modification
We may modify any of the terms and conditions within this Agreement at any time and at our sole discretion. These modifications may include, but are not limited to, changes in the scope of Commissions (as defined below), payment procedures set forth in Section 5 and Affiliate Program rules. If any of the modifications are UNACCEPTABLE TO YOU, your only recourse is to terminate this Agreement. Your CONTINUED PARTICIPATION IN THE AFFILIATE PROGRAM upon notice of such modification will be deemed to be acceptance of the modification.

2. Enrollment
To enroll in the Affiliate Program, you must sign up online through FeedbackWhiz’s website. Upon approval by FeedbackWhiz, FeedbackWhiz shall maintain an account for Affiliate (the “Affiliate Account“).

3. Affiliate Link
Affiliate will be issued a special URL once you become an approved member of the FeedbackWhiz Affiliate Program (“Affiliate Link“), which will be unique to you and you only, and will allow you to receive Commission for Referrals.

4. Commission
Affiliate will receive a commission equal to 20% of the net proceeds received by FeedbackWhiz (“Commission“) related to orders placed through a qualified and properly coded Affiliate Link or orders using the Affiliate’s promo code (“Promo Code“) (unless noted otherwise for a particular product). Commission may change at the discretion of the FeedbackWhiz.

For a sale to generate Commission to an Affiliate, the referred customer must complete a plan selection and remit payment for the product ordered through the secure order system on the FeedbackWhiz website. Word of mouth referrals will not result in Commission being generated. Commissions will only be paid on sales that are made when the customer clicks through Affiliate Links or enters a Promo Code. Affiliate Links and Promo Codes are the sole responsibility of the Affiliate.

5. Payment
FeedbackWhiz shall pay Commission to Affiliate in U.S. Dollars via a PayPal account and/or physical check as nominated by Affiliate in the name of the party and address provided by Affiliate. Commission will be paid on or about the [1st] day of each month. If during any calendar month Commission does not exceed [twenty-five dollars ($25.00)], then you may not receive payments until the following calendar month during which your aggregate Commission equals or exceeds said amount or until the termination of this Agreement, whichever occurs earlier. No payment will be made to Affiliate for sales that result in refunds or returns and, at its own discretion, FeedbackWhiz may elect to withhold payment for a reasonable time to ensure against cancellations or refunds. It is the responsibility of Affiliate to update their account to ensure proper Commission payments. We will not resend payments returned due to incorrect payment information.

6. Order Fulfillment
FeedbackWhiz will be solely responsible for processing every order placed by a customer via Affiliate Links. Affiliates are not authorized to collect payments or sell any FeedbackWhiz products from other websites as a “reseller” and no “resale” rights are granted in any way. Affiliates are not authorized to sell any of FeedbackWhiz products on eBay or other auction sites. Affiliates are not authorized to give away copies of any of FeedbackWhiz products. FeedbackWhiz will be solely responsible for all customer service inquiries. Affiliate understands and acknowledges that no physical products will be shipped.

Customers who purchase products and services through the FeedbackWhiz Affiliate Program will be deemed to be customers of FeedbackWhiz. Accordingly, all rules, policies, and operating procedures concerning customer orders and service will apply to such customers. We may change our policies and operating procedures at any time. Prices and availability of our products and services may vary from time to time. FeedbackWhiz policies solely determine the price paid by the customer.

10. FeedbackWhiz Anti-Spam Policy
FeedbackWhiz strictly prohibits affiliates from using spam e-mail and other forms of Internet abuse (including spamming forums, blogs, Twitter, Facebook and other social media outlets) to seek sales. Spam is defined as including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Electronic mail messages addressed to a recipient with whom the sender does not have an existing business or personal relationship or is not sent at the request of, or with the express consent of, the recipient through an opt-in subscription.
  • Messages posted to Usenet, forums, Twitter, Facebook and message boards that are off-topic (unrelated to the topic of discussion), cross-posted to unrelated newsgroups, posted in excessive volume, or posted against forum/message board rules. Be conscious of forum rules. If a forum owner or moderator complains that Affiliate has spammed, the Affiliate Account may be permanently terminated after investigation.
  • Content posted on free blog websites for the sole purpose of keyword spamming, or comments posted to legitimate blogs that violate the comment policy of the blog owner.
  • Solicitations posted to chat rooms, or to groups or individuals via Internet Relay Chat or “Instant Messaging” system.
  • Certain off-line activities that, while not considered spam, are similar in nature, including distributing flyers or leaflets on private property or where prohibited by applicable rules, regulations, or laws.
  • FeedbackWhiz, may undertake, at its sole discretion and with or without prior notice, the following enforcement actions:
    • Account Termination: Upon the receipt of a credible complaint, the FeedbackWhiz Affiliate Program manager may investigate the complaint, and if necessary, will then terminate the Affiliate Account of the individual implicated in the abuse. Termination results in the immediate closure of the member and Affiliate Account, the loss of all referrals and the forfeiture of any unpaid money related to the Affiliate Account. At FeedbackWhiz discretion, termination may not only result in being banned from the Affiliate Program, but also being banned from ANY other internal affiliate programs.

If you wish to report a violation of our Anti-Spam Policy, please forward all relevant evidence to our customer service department at support@feedbackwhiz.com.
