COMPENSATION. If Your application to become an affiliate is approved by Success Unite, You will receive a unique Affiliate ID. The Affiliate ID will be incorporated within each URL which You will use to advertise Success Unite. You will have the opportunity to receive a commission for each Sale that is registered using Your Affiliate ID.
In the event that a Prospect has multiple Affiliate Cookies, the most recently-acquired Cookie will determine which Affiliate is credited with a Sale. There are some products sold that do not have trial periods.
Provided that the Sold Account remains in good status within thirty (30) days from the Sale, You will be paid a commission for each Sold Account that generates a payment to Success Unite in a month (“Commission”). Except as otherwise provided herein, Commission payments will be paid after thirty (30) days following each Valid Transaction on the 1st and 15th of each month. Commission will be paid to the Affiliate following Success Unite’s receipt of payment for a Sold Account, less any refunds and subject to the other terms of this Agreement.

All Commission payments are based on the amount of fees received by Success Unite, less sales taxes.
For total clarity, Commission is tracked automatically by Success Unite and validated accordingly by Success Unite. Please do not rely solely on your Thrivecart Affiliate Dashboard for this information. Should you wish to know your current affiliate status, you can email us at any time with the word “Affiliate” in the subject title at yoursuccess@successunite.com.
