(You may not promote MyNewsletterBuilder through purchased or borrowed lists.)

How do I know if my website qualifies for your Affiliate Rewards Program?

Most websites will qualify to participate in our Affiliate Rewards Program. However, we do reserve the right to refuse or revoke membership if we deem the website contains objectionable material, explicit language, supports violent groups, or if we suspect fraudulent behavior.

Do I need to do anything else?

Payments

How much will I make with the MyNewsletterBuilder Affiliate Rewards Program?

Ultimately, your success depends on the marketing efforts you make towards promoting MyNewsletterBuilder to your customers. The more you promote MyNewsletterBuilder, the more you earn. We strongly recommend that you place compelling and appropriate banners on your website to increase success with the program.

Commissions start immediately at 10% of payments received for email marketing account services. Each time your referrals upgrade or renew their accounts, you earn 10% of their paid amount, a up to a lifetime total of $200 per referral. The lifetime referral credit is even higher for professional affiliate marketers with a proven track record, up to $1000 per referral!

You receive credit for payments after just one billing period!

How often will I get paid?

We issue payments via Service Credit — or via PayPal for professional affiliate marketers undergoing more thorough review. Payments are made on the last business day of each month to those Affiliate Rewards participants who have reached the $50 minimum BEFORE the end of the previous month. For example, if an Affiliate Rewards participant earns $50 or more by the end of February, they will be paid earned commissions on last day in March. If the Affiliate Rewards participant did not reach the $50 minimum before March 1st, those commissions will be carried forward and paid in the month following exceeding the $50 commission minimum. This allows us time to review sales in the case of returns, invalid credit cards, or even fraud.

Can I get paid for past referrals?

No. You must be signed up and approved as a MyNewsletterBuilder Affiliate before any payments can be made.

Are there any terms and conditions I should read?

Yes. In addition to our standard Terms of Use Policy for Acceptable Use and our Privacy Policy, we also have Affiliate Rewards Terms and Conditions. In short, for your benefit and ours, we don't want to associate the MyNewsletterBuilder brand with any unsavory online behavior and reserve the right to terminate an Affiliate Rewards participant for any behavior that may reflect badly on our services.

  1. You may not receive credit for referring yourself or credit for any deceptive or fraudulent practice.
  2. All participants must have a validated PayPal account to receive payments. Otherwise, participants receive service credit.
  3. All U.S. citizens and all non-citizens in the U.S. must provide a valid Social Security Number, Taxpayer ID number, or FEIN to receive payments via PayPal. Otherwise, participants receive service credit.

Tracking and Reporting

How are my referrals tracked and credited to my account?

All of the MyNewsletterBuilder links and banners to our site contain your unique "fingerprint". As an Affiliate Rewards participant, each time a user comes through your link/banner to our site and signs up as a customer and completes payment, your account is credited.

How can I check to see how much commission I have made through the MyNewsletterBuilder Affiliate Rewards Program?

Once you are approved into the program, which happens automatically for MyNewsletterBuilder customers in good standing, you can access your Affiliate Rewards panel through MyNewsletterBuilder site, http://www.MyNewsletterBuilder.com. After logging in, just go to the Rewards tab under My Account to automatically log in to your Affiliate Rewards account. You will be able to review your transaction reports to see a breakdown of your activity and associated commissions.

Links and Banners

What is an Affiliate Link?

An affiliate link is a special URL where you send your referrals. This URL sets up tracking for your referrals so you can get credit for future purchases and then redirects your referrals to a page on our website.

How do I get the links and banners for MyNewsletterBuilder to put on my site?

After you have completed the sign up process and have been approved into the program, you will be able to retrieve banners and links by going to the Rewards tab under My Account to automatically log in to your Affiliate Rewards account. Click on Promotion menu item to access Banners & Links.

You can also use the mnb_tinymce_icon_template.gif Predefined Content icon which appears as the first icon in the formatting toolbar to add Referral Links & Banners to your email newsletters.

Where will site visitors link to once they click in to banners or text links that I place on my site?

They will be linked to the MyNewsletterBuilder website. Our site will provide them with everything they need to know about MyNewsletterBuilder. This is where they can learn about our features and pricing, take an online tour, and conveniently sign up for a Free Trial and pay for service. You will receive credit for sales from your links.
