Are all persons/companies eligible to become affiliates?
We do not accept affiliates whose sites promote SPAM as outlined in our terms &
conditions. Your site should:
- Generate sufficient traffic to our website(s)
- Attract a customer base that may be interested in our products
- Not promote violence
- Not promote pornographic material
- Not promote discrimination based on race, gender, religion, nationality, disability,
sexual orientation, or age
- Not promote illegal activities
- Not violate the intellectual property rights of our company
When and what commission will I be paid?
You will earn 25% commissions for each sale generated via your website. Our affiliate
network, ShareASale, will post your monthly earnings to your account approximately
20 days after the end of every month. These earnings may represent activity from
the past month or two months prior. Your total ShareASale monthly earnings will
appear under the ‘Reporting’ tab.
If your ShareASale account balance is less than US$50 at the end of the month, your
earnings will continue to roll over to the following month until the payment threshold
is reached.
How are we tracking your sales?
When a potential customer clicks on a banner, text or link from the 4Checks Affiliate
Program located on your site, they will be directed to the website you are promoting
in the 4Checks Program. This click will set a 120-day cookie with your affiliate
ID number in the customer’s browser.
If customer then completes a purchase before the cookie expires, you will automatically
be credited with the sale and every sale will be recorded in the network. You can
view your account activity at any time via your password-protected account in ShareASale.
Why has my commission total dropped today from what it was yesterday?
At least once a month we receive information on the number of cancelled orders placed
on our websites. When an order is placed via your website, and this order is later
cancelled, we will need to void that transaction in ShareASale, thus reversing the
amount of commission you had initially been credited for on this order. The sale
was not completed, and therefore, we cannot award your site with commission on a
cancelled order.
Why would a customer cancel their order?
In general, most order cancellations occur due to the security procedures that we
follow for all check orders. If our systems are unable to validate the information
provided for each order, then additional steps and information are requested by
the customer and/or their financial institution to verify the information is correct
and not fraudulent. Some customers never respond to this request, and if proof is
not received within a period of 45 days the order is cancelled.
Cancelled orders affect an affiliate's commission total, as any cancelled order
will show up on the affiliate's account as having been voided.
How do I create links to the brands in the 4Checks program?
Links are created in the ShareASale. Each banner and text link has a unique tracking
link specific to your affiliate account. These links are to be placed on your websites,
in your e-mail messages, and newsletters that direct customers to the 4Checks program.
You must use these coded links or else any sales referred by your site will not
track, and no commission will be awarded.
If you have a question that is not included in this section, please send your question

as soon as possible.
