Affiliate Terms and Conditions
This agreement is between Cornerstone Graduate Supply DBA HomeschoolDiploma.com (“we”, “us”) and its affiliate partners (“you”, “affiliate”, “affiliates”).
Enrollment & Approval
Enrollment as an affiliate is by invite only and is done through our affiliate portal (“portal”) at homeschooldiploma.com/affiliates. After applying for affiliate status through the portal, affiliate applications must be approved by us for the affiliate partnership to be established.
Upon approval, your affiliate portal will update with information showing any referral tracking mechanisms (“RTMs”) such as affiliate links and coupons. We may grant additional RTMs from time to time as we see fit or in communication with you.
Commission
Unless a special agreement is reached outside of these terms, our commission rate is 5% of non-shipping, non-tax sales generated through your RTMs. Excluded products include Custom Graduate Packages and any product already on sale.
Payouts
Due to the seasonality of our business, we issue payouts three times per year:
- By April 15th for commission earned Jan 1 through March 31
- By July 15th for commission earned April 1 through June 30
- By January 15th for commission earned July 1 through December 31
Unless otherwise arranged with us, payouts will be made via check to the address we have on file for you. You may update this address at any time by emailing us at affiliates@homeschooldiploma.com
Promotional Standards
You agree to follow any and all applicable state and federal laws as they regard the endorsement or promotion of our business or products. The FTC requires clear and conspicuous endorsement disclosures directly adjacent to any affiliate links.
