Enrollment in the Program. Participation in the Program gives the affiliate ("you", "your Chamber") the opportunity to earn commissions from sales of products and/or services offered at; yourchamber.chamberecommerce.com

To begin the enrollment process, you must submit an application form. We will evaluate your application and notify you via email whether or not you have been accepted to participate in the Program. We may reject your application if we determine in our sole discretion that your web site ("Site") is unsuitable for participation in the Program. Unsuitable web sites include, but are not limited to, those that:

b) advocate discrimination based on race, sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, age, or other impermissible criteria;
c) promote or engage in illegal activities;

Geographical Limitations. Due to regional and local issues, we are looking mainly for affiliates that are located in and cater to a North American audience (United States and Canada). If you operate a site outside of this area and feel that you can be a productive partner due to a high level of traffic from members in our areas of operation, we will evaluate your application on a case-by-case basis.

Links. If you are accepted to participate in the Program, we will make available to you for use on your Chamber Site the following items: text links, banners, buttons, icons, and other items ("Links"), subject to the terms and conditions hereof. The Links will link to one of our URL (ie. your sub URL), where visitors may purchase member products from your privately branded Chamber of E-Commerce website. You may post as many Links on your Chamber Site as you like. The position, prominence, and nature of the Links on your Site shall comply with any requirements specified by us, but otherwise will be at your discretion. Tracking is provided using the Members Reports section, which updates in real time. Pending sales are reported within minutes under normal circumstances.

Commissions. "Qualifying Link" means a link from your Site to our web site facilitated by the technology of the Chamber of E-Commerce. "Commissionable Purchase" means a purchase of member services at the chamberecommerce.com website completed by a bonafide Customer within 60 days of entry from an Affiliate Link on your site, as recorded by the Member Reports tracking software. Orders placed on our site will be considered "Pending Orders" until payment has been deposited in our account and the order is approved. Once payment has been made and the order approved, the status of these orders will be updated and they will be considered a "Commissionable Order". For each Commissionable Purchase that is recorded by the affiliate tracking software we will pay you, or cause you to be paid, a commission as follows:

·25% of the total sale minus normal and customary credit card processing fees. We will pay you, or cause you to be paid, within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar month, the Commissions owed you in accordance with the above-mentioned commission structure, so long as the aggregate Commissions earned by you and not yet paid exceeds $25. Commission checks will be for the applicable amount of Commissions (less any taxes required to be withheld pursuant to applicable law). For any calendar month in which your Commissions do not exceed Twenty-Five Dollars ($25), we shall have the option to pay the same or to withhold such payment and add such Commissions to the next calendar month, if any, for which you are entitled to receive a commission check.
