SaveWave Affiliate Program Terms & Conditions

Effective Date: 1/5/2025

Welcome to the SaveWave Affiliate Program. By joining, you agree to the following terms:

Commission Structure

  • Affiliates earn a commission on the subtotal of every successful referral order (excluding taxes, shipping, and discounts).
  • The default rate is 5%, but commission rates may vary based on individual agreements.
  • Commissions are only paid on completed, non-refunded orders.

Payouts

  • Commissions are paid monthly via PayPal.
  • Minimum payout threshold: $50. If the threshold is not met, the balance rolls over to the next cycle.
  • Affiliates are responsible for providing accurate payment details.
  • Balances under the $50 threshold that remain inactive for 6 months may be forfeited unless the affiliate requests reactivation and resumes active promotion.

Tracking

  • Referrals are tracked via your unique affiliate link and/or assigned discount code.
  • Cookies are valid for 30 days after a user clicks your link.
  • Only the first affiliate to refer the customer will earn the commission.

Returns, Cancellations, and Fraud

  • Commissions will not be paid on refunded, canceled, or fraudulent orders.
  • SaveWave reserves the right to deny or reverse commissions on any disputed transactions or suspicious activity.

Promotional Guidelines

  • You may promote SaveWave through your own platforms (YouTube, blog, social media, etc.).
  • You may not run paid ads using SaveWave branded terms, keywords, or domain names.
  • Posting discount codes or referral links on public coupon sites or deal forums is not allowed unless explicitly approved.
  • Misleading claims, fake reviews, or misrepresentation may result in removal from the program and forfeiture of commissions.

Use of Brand Assets

  • You may use SaveWave provided images and media for promotion.
  • Do not alter logos or branding without permission.

Self-Referrals

  • You may not use your own referral link or code to earn commission on personal purchases.
  • Violations may result in forfeited commissions and removal from the program.
  • Self-referrals include any orders placed by the affiliate, a known associate, or through methods intended to fraudulently trigger commission. SaveWave reserves the right to investigate and void such transactions.

Commission Stacking

  • Only one affiliate source (link or code) may be credited per order.
  • Combining multiple referrals on the same purchase is not permitted.

Program Changes

  • SaveWave may update commission rates or terms at any time.
  • Affiliates will be notified in advance of any significant changes.

Removal from Program

  • Affiliates may be removed for inactivity, policy violations, or conduct that misrepresents the brand.
  • Upon removal from the program, the affiliate’s code and referral tracking will be deactivated. Any sales made after removal will not be eligible for commission.

Performance Monitoring

  • Affiliate performance is reviewed on a monthly basis. If an affiliate remains inactive or does not generate meaningful engagement or conversions within a two to three month period, SaveWave reserves the right to deactivate their affiliate code and remove them from the program.
  • Affiliates will be notified in advance before removal and may request reactivation if they plan to resume active promotion.
  • Affiliates removed for inactivity will still receive any eligible commissions for completed, non-refunded orders made prior to deactivation, as long as the minimum payout threshold is met.

Legal Disclaimer

  • Affiliates are independent partners, not employees of SaveWave.
  • Affiliates are responsible for complying with local laws, including tax reporting on earned commissions.

Program Integrity

  • SaveWave reserves the right to monitor affiliate activity.
  • Any attempt to exploit system loopholes, generate fake traffic, or abuse program rules may result in termination and loss of unpaid commissions.

Final Discretion

SaveWave reserves the right to interpret, apply, or modify these terms as needed to maintain the integrity of the program. Participation is subject to ongoing review, and affiliates may be removed in cases of inactivity, non-compliance, or actions that do not align with our brand values.
