You will receive 20% for orders placed through the Affiliate Sites of those sub-Affiliates which you have sponsored into the Motto Plan Affiliate Program. Affiliate commissions will only be paid on sales which are made through qualified Affiliates.
Compensation can only be earned between the acceptance of the Affiliate application and notice of termination. Fees will be paid by Motto Plan Affiliate within 14 days of the beginning of each month. Any returned checks, chargebacks, or fees from a returned order will be adjusted in the following fee payment. If no fee payment is due, a billing invoice for the amount will be issued.
Affiliates must have an active link on their website. In order to qualify for commissions on sub-affiliate sales in any given month, an affiliate must personally sell at least one order during that month. Affiliates will also be responsible for all taxes and fees that they may incur.

Your link must send the visitor to the merchant site.
- Users must be able to see coupon/deal/savings information and details before an affiliate cookie is set (i.e. “click here to see coupons and open a window to the merchant site” is NOT allowed).
