Will my Website be accepted into the program?
That depends. We reserve the right to refuse membership to a site or revoke a site's membership at any time if we find that it contains or links to offensive or illegal material. This includes pornography, explicit language or content, violence, discrimination, promotion of illegal activities, violation of intellectual property rights or laws, libelous, defamatory or disparaging materials, or sites with little or no original content. Per our Terms and Conditions, we also reserve the right to revoke membership to a site at any time. Tampering with CenturyFitness.com logos, using disparaging language, or deliberately trying to hack, or in any way scam, CenturyFitness.com will result in immediate dismissal from the Affiliate Program and could possibly lead to legal recourse.
Can a Website based outside the United States be an affiliate of CenturyFitness.com?
We're sorry. CenturyFitness.com cannot accept affiliates from countries other than the United States at this time.
Can I sign up all of my Web sites?
Sure. You can have multiple sites under one affiliate account. Just add links to each site. Commission Junction tracks orders from and generates separate reports for each site. You'll get one monthly check for all your sites' earnings combined.
How do you know how much traffic my site is generating?
Your links to our site tell the tale. Each of these URLs contains a unique tag identifying your site. When a visitor uses one of your links to come to CenturyFitness.com, the tag is stored and when that visitor makes a purchase on our site, the tag gets passed to the order database. Commission Junction, an impartial third party tracks these purchases and calculates your commissions.
How do you calculate my commissions?
All commissions are based on net sales. To calculate net sales, we take total sales and subtract shipping and handling, tax, gift-wrap, gift certificates, coupons, credit or non-cash payment, credit card processing fees and returns or chargebacks. Other discounts or special sales are included in this calculation. Then, based on net sales for the month, you are paid a specific percent commission, as detailed in the chart below. For example, you would earn 6.5% for the first $499 of monthly net sales, 7.5% for net sales thereafter up to $2,499.99 and so on.
Sales in a Month Percentage
Any time your commission totals $25 or more, you can request payment through Commission Junction. You'll receive your check on the fifteenth (15th) day of the following month.
When can I start earning commissions?
Immediately. Put our links on your site as soon as you've signed up. The moment that first sale is made through one of these links, you're earning money!
Can I use the links on my site to make my own purchases on CenturyFitness.com?
Please do. You'll earn commissions on your own purchases as long as you are using the URLs we gave you when you signed up for The Affiliate Experts Program.
Who is Commission Junction?
Commission Junction is the impartial third party we have hired to track the performance of affiliates' links, calculate their earnings and pay their commissions.
How do I find out when someone has bought something through my links?
You can go to Commission Junction's Website to review records of everything bought through your link(s) and how much commission you have earned. You'll learn more about your earnings, transactions and link activity for a time period you specify. This way you can track your progress to see what worked and what didn't.
How will I know when I'm earning commissions?
You can always check your commissions and link activity on Commission Junction's Website , which is updated real-time once orders have been shipped. When your commission hits $25 or more, you can request payment from Commission Junction. Payments are made on the fifteenth (15th) day of every month so you'd get your commission check on the fifteenth (15th) day of the month following your request.
When do my links become active?
Right away. As soon as you've read and agreed to our Terms and Conditions and you're done registering your site for the program, the links we give you to place on your site are active. That means you can start earning money instantly!
How many links can I have to CenturyFitness.com?
That's for YOU to decide. Subject to our Terms and Conditions, place as many of the provided links into your site as you want.
What are my linking options?
You choose the linking option that best serves your site - text, banners or buttons. One of the more effective ways to link to CenturyFitness.com is to add our search box to your site. That way, no matter what your visitor is looking for in the world of sporting goods, they can find it with one click. You can also link to our home page, catalog-specific pages, product-specific pages, or promotions.
Can I list product prices?
You should NOT list product prices. Why? Often, special prices or discounts are limited time offers. If a visitor reads a special or discounted price on your site, then discovers a different price on CenturyFitness.com, the customer will be confused.
