AFFILIATE PROGRAM AGREEMENT
Last updated: 2025-04-09
PLEASE READ THIS AFFILIATE PROGRAM AGREEMENT CAREFULLY.
This is a contract between you (the “Affiliate”) and us (“DazzMart”). It describes how we will work together and other aspects of our business relationship. It is a legal document so some of the language is necessarily “legalese” but we have tried to make it as readable as possible.
The Affiliate Program Agreement applies to your participation in our Affiliate Program (the “Affiliate Program”). These terms are so important that we cannot have you participate in our Affiliate Program unless you agree to them.
Changes
We periodically update these terms. Additionally, we reserve the right to replace these terms entirely if, for instance, there are changes to the Affiliate Program, its termination, or its integration into an existing program. It is important that you regularly review this Agreement to stay fully informed about any updates. If you do not agree with the updates or replacements, you have the option to terminate the agreement, as described below.
Definitions
DazzMart Affiliate Program is a promotional program we (“DazzMart,” “we,” or “our”) offer to partners under this Agreement. By joining the program, partners can promote our products using their exclusive Affiliate Code.
An “exclusive Affiliate Code” is a unique identification code assigned to you upon acceptance into the Affiliate Program. This code is exclusively yours and is used to track your sales.
When a customer uses an Affiliate’s exclusive code, the first custom-made product is charged at full price, while the second and any additional custom-made products receive 10% off. This discount is automatically applied at checkout.
Affiliate commissions are calculated based on the final product prices after discount, excluding any shipping fees or taxes. So if a discount is applied to the customer’s order, the commission reflects the adjusted amount.
“Customer” refers to an actual user who completes a purchase of DazzMart products using your exclusive Affiliate Code. A valid Customer Transaction must take place. Visitors to your website and followers on social media are potential leads, but they do not fall under the definition of a “Customer” as specified in this Agreement.
“Customer Transactions” means those transactions that are eligible for Commission pursuant to the ‘Customer Transactions’ section of this Agreement. Please refer to the section “Customer Transactions” for details.
“Commission” refers to a fixed percentage of each Customer Transaction as specified in this Agreement, also known as Affiliate Commission.
“Customer Data” refers to all information submitted or collected by customers through the purchase of DazzMart products.
Affiliate Acceptance
Once you complete an application to become an Affiliate, we will review your application and notify you within 2–3 business days whether you have been accepted into the Affiliate Program or not. Before accepting an application, we may wish to discuss it further with you and may reach out for additional information. Certain requirements or certification(s) may be necessary before we can approve your application. If we do not notify you of your acceptance into the Affiliate Program within 2–3 business days of your application, it will be considered rejected.
If your application is accepted for participation in the Affiliate Program, the Terms and Conditions of this Agreement will be in full force and effect upon notification of acceptance until terminated, as outlined below.
Customer Transactions
The entire Customer Transaction process refers to a visitor or individual accessing dazzmart.com. It includes adding items to the shopping cart, completing the purchase using your exclusive Affiliate Code at checkout, and receiving the purchased items. Only when this full process is completed, it is considered a valid Customer Transaction.
1. Acceptance and Validity:
To be eligible for Commissions (Affiliate Commission):
(i) The Customer Transaction must occur, and you need to wait for the customer to receive the items. You should also wait for the deadline of the Refund and Returns policy to expire before considering the transaction complete.
(ii) You are only eligible to receive a commission for Customer Transactions that result from an exclusive Affiliate Code provided by us and approved by us.
(iii) Affiliates are allowed to earn commissions using their own exclusive Affiliate Code.
You are not eligible for commission or any compensation if:
(i) Obtaining commission payments through fraud, misuse of an exclusive Affiliate Code, violation of any Affiliate Program Agreement provided by us, or any actions deemed to go against the spirit of the Affiliate Program.
(ii) The Customer participates in any of our partner programs and is eligible to receive commission under any of these programs.
In competitive situations with other Affiliates, we may choose to provide the Commission to the affiliate deemed most eligible at our discretion. We reserve the right to discontinue Commission payments if any eligibility criteria outlined in this subsection are not met at any time.
WE RESERVE THE RIGHT, AT OUR SOLE DISCRETION, TO DECLINE OR REJECT YOUR EXCLUSIVE AFFILIATE CODE.
2. Commission and Payment.
In order to receive payment under this Agreement, you must have:
(i) agreed to the terms of this Agreement;
(ii) complete all steps necessary to create your account on dazzmart.com in accordance with our directions;
(iii) have a valid and up-to-date payment method associated with your account;
(iv) complete any and all necessary tax documents so that we can process any payments that may be owed to you.
3. Commission Payment.
We will determine the currency in which we pay the Commission, as well as the applicable conversion rate. We will not issue more than one Commission payment or similar referral fee for any given Customer Transaction (unless we choose to do so at our discretion).
Reasons for commission decline include: (i) Order cancellation; (ii) Item returns; (iii) Customer credit check failure; (iv) Violation of the Affiliate Program Agreement; (v) Duplicate order; (vi) Item was out of stock; (vii) Other.
Taxes.
You are responsible for payment of all taxes and fees (including bank fees) applicable to the Commission.
Commission Amounts.
(i) We reserve the right to alter or change the Commission amount.
(ii) The fixed commission rate is 10% for Custom-Made Phone Cases — products created by DazzMart or our partnered Creators — when sold using your exclusive Affiliate Code. Commissions do not apply to Custom Design Services, where customers submit their own ideas for personalized design.
(iii) The transaction amount eligible for commission payment excludes bank fees (such as transaction fees, currency conversion fees, wire transfer fees, and intermediary bank charges), any applicable taxes (VAT/sales tax), credit card processing fees, shipping costs, and discounts from coupons. Additionally, commission is calculated based on the actual net amount of the transaction, which is the final amount after deducting all applicable fees and discounts.
Training and Support
We may make available to you, without charge, various resources made available as part of our Affiliate Program. If we make such resources available to you, we encourage you to actively participate, learn and utilize them.
