To be an authorized affiliate of HostCabin.com, you agree to abide by the terms and conditions contained in this agreement. Please read this agreement carefully before registering and using the HostCabin.com service as an affiliate. By signing up for the HostCabin.com affiliate program, you indicate your acceptance of this agreement and its terms and conditions.
How it works
HostCabin.com will provide our affiliates with unique tracking codes. These codes must be placed in the HTML of your website and when clicked on will direct the visitor to HostCabin.com. If the user places an order in the next 365 days from that computer or Internet connection, our automated system will track the sale and automatically credit your account.
Commissions
Commissions will be paid to affiliates based on successful referrals. A successful referral, or sale, is defined as: non-fraudulent, active for a period of thirty (90) days, not canceled, new web hosting client who has paid for services in full and has been directed to HostCabin.com through your affiliate tracking link. Upon such cancellation of said commission, we will provide at our discretion any and all non-private information to show sufficient reason for cancellation.
Due to the high frequency of credit card fraud and cancellation rates, HostCabin.com reserves the right to hold commissions for up to 60 days for verification. HostCabin.com also reserves the right to cancel commission in the event that HostCabin.com is unable to collect funds, the order is fraudulent, the customer cancels and is refunded, or if HostCabin.com learns that the commission was earned improperly. We do not allow self referrals and all self referral commissions will be removed. The minimum balance for a payout is $100.
HostCabin.com reserves the right to hold a reserve on payments in the event that HostCabin.com identifies financial risk, chargeback risk, or an inability of the affiliate to reimburse HostCabin.com for future chargeback costs. The reserve amount will be determined based on previous commissions and signup rates, risk analysis, and other factors. HostCabin.com reserves the right to hold the reserve amount for up to 12 months and no longer.
