Standard Commission Credit Rate  
You will accrue commission credits based on Qualifying Revenues according to commission credit rates established by us from time to time. "Qualifying Revenues" are revenues derived by us from our sales of products, after reduction for discounts, coupons and/or gift card redemptions, as a result of purchases made by visitors to our Website that come directly through a Special Link on your website. "Qualifying Revenues" do not include gift card purchases, shipping & handling, gift-wrapping or taxes.  The standard commission rate is 10% of Qualifying Revenues.

Commission is on a tiered basis and based on the revenue that you generate. Affiliates will start on 10% standard commission and can earn 15% based on proven sales and marketing efforts. If you would like us to review your affiliate commission rate reach out to us at affiliates@thecleanbeautyedit.com and we will get back to you.
8. Commission Payment 
No commission will be earned or payable unless and until you have in any given Programme Year (defined below) accrued commission credits of at least €10.00. “Programme Year” refers to any 12-month period beginning January 1st and ending December 31st. If you do not accrue such minimum commission credit amount by the end of such Programme Year, any commission credits in your account will be cancelled and permanently deleted from your account. Any accrued but unpaid commission existing in your account as of the effective date of this agreement will be converted to commission credits as of the effective date of this agreement. Your acceptance of this agreement or continued participation in the Programme shall constitute your assent to these terms.  Subject to the foregoing minimum annual commission credits rule, we pay commission on a monthly basis. 30 days following the end of each calendar month, for those affiliates that satisfy the minimum annual commission credit rule we will pay the commission by PayPal or directly to you bank account. 

If a product that generated commission credits is returned by the customer, we will deduct the corresponding commission from your next commission payment. If there is no subsequent payment, we may send you a bill for the commission.  If you accrue the minimum commission credit amount during a Programme Year but less than €10.00 remains in your account as of the end of such Programme Year, such credits will be carried over to the following Programme Year as if they were earned on the first day of such following Programme Year. As such, if you do not accrue the minimum commission credit amount during such following Programme Year (including such carried over credits), such carried over credits will be cancelled and permanently deleted from your account at the end of such following Programme Year.  Except as set forth in this Agreement, commission credits shall have no value and are not redeemable in any way for cash or merchandise.

Accordingly, all of our rules, policies, and operating procedures concerning customer orders, customer service, and product sales will apply to those customers.
