Affiliate Program Agreement

"Affiliate" means an applicant that has been approved by Ingram to participate in the program. The acquisition of image Subscribers is the purpose of the affiliate Program, and, in consideration of your referral to us of Subscribers we will pay you as set forth below.

2, Relationship of parties: Ingram reserves its right to enter into an agreement with any Affiliate or   site. You understand and accept that we may at any time solicit customer referrals on terms that differ from those contemplated in this Agreement or operate or endorse or promote websites and Affiliates that are similar to or compete with you and your site(s). In the event of disagreement, your sole remedy is to terminate your participation in the Program.

3, Rules & Conditions: You must not be already affiliated to another member or participant or reach the Website by clicking on an Affiliation Link. You must have cookies enabled on your browser when clicking on an Affiliation Link to the Website, when reaching the Website, and when completing the membership application, so that we can track it.

4, Payment: If you refer a Subscriber to Ingram and the Subscriber identifies you as the referring party by clicking through your link to the Ingram website, your account will be credited 10% of the sale value. Any referrer fees credited to your account from a subscription or other product that is later refunded by or charged back to Ingram will be deemed to be an overpayment of fees to you. Ingram reserves the right to withhold payments due to you under the Program for up to 60 days.

When a referred Subscriber clicks on your referral link, Ingram attempts to store a cookie on the referred party’s web browser. In order to be confirmed as a Subscriber the referred party must have an unexpired subscriber cookie in their browser when they register an account. If the cookies are not accepted or if they are removed or expired, the referred Subscriber will not be identified as your referral. Your account will be credited for any sale made by a referred Subscriber within one year of their account registration.

Accrued referral fees can be viewed in Your account within 24 hours of the Subscriber referral. Payments are not automatic and need to be requested.

There is a minimum payout of £40 Pounds Sterling, or €45 Euro or US $60 per accounting period. If you request that payments be made to you by cheque or bank transfer, the minimum payment is £200 Pounds Sterling, €300 Euros or $400 US Dollars per accounting period and transaction fees may apply. Cheques will be drawn on a UK Sterling bank account and exchanged at prevailing quoted xe.com rates. If during an accounting period, you have not reached the minimum pay out level, your fees will be brought forward into the next accounting period. If you cancel your account, prior to reaching the minimum payout fee, the unpaid fees will be forfeited by you.

If your account is cancelled for a breach of the material terms of this Agreement or any other agreement with us, in addition to its other rights at law, Ingram will have the right to retain any fees.

If Ingram makes an overpayment of fees to you for any reason, Ingram shall have the right to deduct the amount of such overpayment from your accrued fees and/or to require the immediate repayment of such overpaid fees.

Ingram may modify fee rates and/or payment schedules at any time. If Ingram does modify the fee rate, fees earned before the effective change in rates will be credited at the rate in effect at the time such fees were earned.

Payments will be made via PayPal or Moneybookers (or cheque).
