Terms and Conditions

Introduction

This Affiliate Program Agreement (“Agreement”) is between an Affiliate (“you,” “your”) and the owners of Passporttojoy.com and Mango Muse Events, LLC (“we,” “our,” “the company”). Your participation in the Affiliate Program is conditional on your acceptance of the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement. You are deemed to have accepted this Agreement by applying to participate in the Affiliate Program.

Who can be an Affiliate?

All Affiliates must be at least 18 years old.

What does an Affiliate do?

An Affiliate is a webmaster or Internet marketer who takes on the role of promoting Passport to Joy, the Passport to Joy website, Passporttojoy.com, or any of our other properties.

How does the Affiliate Program work?

To participate in the Affiliate Program, you must apply to be an Affiliate, which enables you to create an Affiliate Link. An “Affiliate Link” is defined as a web URL or hyperlink which contains (either within the link or via any redirect or link-cloaking software) the Affiliate’s ID with the intention of tracking referred traffic to Passporttojoy.com or any of its properties.

When an Affiliate directs or sends a prospective buyer to Passporttojoy.com, the Passport to Joy website, or any of our other properties via a correctly formatted Affiliate Link and that visitor then purchases a product from Passporttojoy.com, Passport to Joy, or any of our other properties – the Affiliate will receive a commission from Passporttojoy.com, Passport to Joy, or any of our other properties on the sale of that product (the “Commission”). All Commissions are paid in US dollars.  Due to our 30-day, risk-free guarantee, we start paying affiliate commissions no sooner than 31 days after the purchase.

Once you start sharing your affiliate link with others, you will be able to see the following information in the Affiliate Center.

  • Number of people who have clicked on your links
  • Number of sales you’ve referred

For your latest sales numbers, please check your ledger.

Clawbacks

If we are charged back (due to a customer refund) at any time up to 12 months from the date of sale, we charge you back for that Commission. If you have questions about Commissions, contact affiliates@passporttojoy.com
