E-goi Affiliate Programme Terms and Conditions

How the E-goi Affiliate Programme works

The E-goi Affiliate Program works as follows:

  1. The Affiliate refers people to E-goi by including its own affiliate discount code and contents (articles and banners) on their website or newsletter promoting E-goi. Links to the E-goi site in those contents should use a unique affiliate URL (provided by E-goi).
  2. When E-goi receives visitors through the Affiliate's unique URL links, those visitors will be associated to the Affiliate's account.
  3. E-goi tracks all traffic generated by the affiliate and saves that info when the visitors creates an E-goi Account, establishing a lifetime relationship between that user and the affiliate that brought him.
  4. Everytime the Affiliate has control over this account creation process, should use the tool available for that purpose.
  5. If a visitor signs up for a plan or buys pay-as-you-go messages, the Affiliate will receive a commission on their affiliate account.
  6. Everytime an affiliate coupon code is used on an E-goi payment (plan or top-up), the affiliate that owns that specific coupon will get the commission and will remain associated to that client so he will receive all the commissions on future payments from that client.
  7. If a visitor becomes a new E-goi affiliate, the Affiliate will receive a commission on the new affiliate's own commissions and also on commissions of other affiliates that the second affiliate brought to the program.

Affiliate requirements

The Affiliate should promote the E-goi platform to their website visitors using promotional contents provided by E-goi, making sure that their unique affiliate URL is always included in any link to E-goi's site/blog. No relationship of employer and employee between E-goi and the Affiliate is created by this Affiliate Programme.

E-goi requirements

E-goi should make sure that all Affiliate Programme services are provided and correctly configured (including website access, account registration, technical support and payment processing) and that visitors and commissions are being correctly associated to the Affiliate's E-goi account.

Commissions

  1. E-goi will pay the Affiliate a commission on each E-goi account sale (monthly plan or pay-as-you-go) originated by a visitor reffered by the Affiliate.
  2. If the visitor signs up for an E-goi plan, the Affiliate will receive a 30% commission on the plan's installment. Whenever the visitor renews their plan, the Affiliate will again receive a 30% commission on that installment.
  3. If the visitor buys E-goi pay-as-you-go messages, the Affiliate will receive a 10% commission on the messages purchased. Whenever the visitor buys another message batch, the Affiliate will again receive a 10% commission on the new messages.
  4. If the visitor becomes a new E-goi affiliate, the Affiliate will receive a special 30% commission on any commission credited to the new affiliate, including the commissions from yet another affiliate that the previous one brought to the program, up to a limit of 5 tiers.
  5. All commissions will be added to the Affiliate's account, which the Affiliate can withdraw.
  6. The Affiliate can use his affiliate panel to monitor referred leads, account registrations and conversions. This information is provided by E-goi and overrides any other information gathered by the Affiliate.
  7. When a visitor clicks on the Affiliate's unique URL, a cookie will be stored in the visitor's browser for 90 days. If the visitor signs up for an E-goi account after the cookie expires, the account will not be associated to the Affiliate's account.
  8. If an E-goi client associated to the Affiliate signs up for a plan or buys pay-as-you-go messages but cancels or fails to make their payment, any outstanding commissions to the Affiliate will be cancelled.
  9. All commissions transferred from E-goi to the affiliate, will always be in Euros (EUR), after converting the amount paid by the client. The conversion rate used is the same as the one e-goi uses in every sale it makes.
  10. When a customer uses a discount code (coupon/voucher) from an affiliate, in addition to the commission of that payment being assigned to the affiliate of that coupon, a recurrence lifetime relation is established between the two. That Affiliate will thus receive commissions on all future payments from that customer. If the customer already has a relationship with another affiliate at the time it used the coupon, the coupon affiliate will not receive any commission and the original affiliate will continue to receive a commission on all payments from that customer.

Payment

  1. Affiliate commissions shall be paid by E-goi for all confirmed sales originating from the Affiliate.
  2. Commissions for plan sign-ups or pay-as-you-go purchases will be added only after the sale has been completed and invoiced. All commissions are added to the Affiliate's account balance.
  3. The Affiliate can withdraw all of their commission balance by using their affiliate dashboard to submit a legally valid document stating the amount due. A minimum of 50 euros in commissions must be available in the Affiliate's account in order for the money to be cashed. Commissions can only be cashed once per month. Any fees or transaction costs relating to this payment will be incurred by the Affiliate.
  4. Affiliates resident in the European Union, in order to withdraw his commissions, the Affiliate must issue E-goi with an invoice or send E-goi a payment receipt for the amount due.
  5. If the documents of the previous paragraph are not issued or are not in compliance, that payout request will be rejected.
  6. The only payment method E-goi uses to transfer commissions to its affiliates is PayPal.
  7. Commissions should be withdrawn until 23:59 WEST of the last day of the month. E-goi shall process the corresponding payment until the 10th of the following month, unless it falls on a Saturday, Sunday or Portuguese bank holiday, in which case payment shall be processed within the next business day.
  8. Affiliates resident outside the European Union have at their disposal within the payout panel, their own document which they are required to complete and attach in order to receive payment of the commissions they wish to redeem.
  9. Affiliates resident outside the European Union may issue an official invoice or receipt from their home country. However, they shall only attach the document referred in point 8, fully completed and signed. In case of invalid attachment, the redemption request will be rejected.
