"Scheduled Data Transfer" means that You are recording Transactions on Your servers and then reporting the Transaction data to SiteAds. If You are approved for and utilize the Scheduled Data Transfer method, You agree to make a daily report of data Transactions to SiteAds in accordance with the formatting, security, and transfer requirements as specified by SiteAds.

    If the tracking code is not recording tracking data properly on the Marketing Service and You are receiving Visitor traffic but Transactions are not being recorded, or if You are using an alternative tracking method to pixel image tracking and You fail to timely comply with Your reporting obligations, SiteAds shall calculate Payouts, and debit Your Account for such Payouts ("Estimated Payouts") based upon an historical analysis of Your Account as applied to an historical analysis of Your Publishers' promotion of You. Transaction Fees shall be applied to such Estimated Payouts and an additional service fee shall be payable to SiteAds equal to 15% times the Estimated Payouts, with a $100 USD minimum.
    If there is not enough performance data for Your Account to make such analyses, SiteAds shall calculate Estimated Payouts based upon a performance average across the Marketing Service for all Advertisers for the period under review.

    d) Payouts/Payout Rates - You shall establish through the Marketing Service a Payout rate for a qualifying Transaction for each of Your Campaigns. Your Account will be debited with each Payout and corresponding Transaction Fee in accordance with Your Campaign Payout rate for the relevant Campaign for each such Visitor action directly resulting from each of Your Publisher’s Web sites or within a subscription e-mail Linking to Your Web site. Unless specifically excluded, all Transactions are eligible for a Payout.
    You may discontinue Campaigns or Programs, or decrease any Payout rate upon 7 days written notice via the automated function through the Marketing Service, with effect from the 8th day from such notice. SiteAds will send Your Publishers a notice regarding each change in Your Payout rate(s), or Campaign or Program discontinuation. If You have established custom Payout rates or other such arrangements, You are responsible for notifying Your Publishers of such changes.


    4) PAYMENT POLICY

    a) In consideration for payment of the fees due according to this Section and compliance with this Agreement, SiteAds shall provide the Advertiser with access to the Marketing Service. Advertiser agrees to make an initial deposit of $1000 (“Initial Deposit”) and set up fee. The Initial Deposit and set up fee must be paid by the Advertiser prior to account activation. In addition, Advertiser shall be charged at a monthly fee which will depend on its membership type and annual renewal fee, and these fees shall be deducted by SiteAds directly from its account. The set up fee, monthly fee and annual renewal fee shall be decided by SiteAds from time to time and published in the Advertiser area of the SiteAds Web site 10 business days before any change becomes effective, and Section 7.f to this Agreement shall apply to such changes. At this time, there are no set up fees, monthly fees and annual renewal fees. If Advertiser makes the Initial Deposit and/or set up fee by check, Advertiser's account will not be activated until Advertiser payment has been cleared. Your Account will not accrue interest. The Initial Deposit payment is a deposit for services to be rendered. After 90 days the initial deposit, deductable by services rendered, is refundable and will be credited to your account, or the difference thereof. If Advertiser chooses to close its SiteAds account before the 90 days period, the remaining balance in its account after wire transfer fees will be refunded. No refund will be issued for 3rd-party fees accrued when refunding Advertiser funds. SiteAds payment rate is based on the payout rate included in the Advertiser Program. Whatever rate the Advertiser decides upon, SiteAds retains 30% of gross commission paid to publishers.

    b) Advertiser shall retain a balance of at least $500 at all times (the “Minimum Balance”). SiteAds may notify the Advertiser when the account reaches, or is expected to reach, the Minimum Balance. If the account does not exceed the Minimum Balance, SiteAds may suspend the activity of such account and such Advertiser, until the balance in the account becomes satisfactory, as shall be decided by SiteAds, in its sole and absolute discretion. SiteAds is under no obligation to make Payouts to Your Publishers where there are insufficient funds in Your Account. Your Publishers shall have a claim against You directly for non-payment of earned but unpaid Payouts resulting from Your failure to make payment to SiteAds. If Your Account has a negative balance for any period of 45 days or more, Your Account is subject to 1.5% interest per month, compounded monthly. SiteAds reserves the right to set and negotiate specific payment terms on an individual basis.

    c) Publishers will be paid within thirty (30) days after the conclusion of a month. Advertisers have until the fifteenth (15) day of each month to dispute any account charges from the previous month. Once payment to a Publisher has been made it cannot be reversed. Publishers will be paid based upon the undisputed amounts accrued in their account. If SiteAds is notified of a dispute, SiteAds will withhold payment of the disputed funds until the dispute is resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution provision below. All accounts will be settled in US dollars ($US). No payment will be issued for any amounts less than $50 US. Every Advertiser account must have either a unique Employer identification number (EIN) or Social Security Number. Advertisers cannot refer themselves as an Advertiser or as a Publisher. Groups of Advertisers cannot refer each other. All payments are based on results as defined, accounted and audited by SiteAds. In no event will payments be made on publisher accounts that have not provided proper tax identification information. SiteAds will be responsible for determining, in its sole and absolute discretion, what acts and omissions violate this policy, and which acts include activity that is deceptive or fraudulent in nature.

    d) SiteAds may apply amounts earned by You through SiteAds or paid by You to SiteAds, even in a separate Account, towards amounts owed by You as an Advertiser. The number or amount of Transactions and clicks, credits for Payouts, and the charges for "Chargebacks" (as defined below), as calculated by SiteAds, shall be final and binding on You. In the event that SiteAds must incur expenses related to the collection of any outstanding balance or fees, You shall pay SiteAds's reasonable expenses associated with said collection, including attorney and collection agency fees.

    e) Chargebacks - A "Chargeback" means that the Transaction is not eligible for a Payout, only in the following circumstances:
  • (a) product return; duplicate entry or other clear error;
  • (b) Publisher's failure to comply with Your Program terms or breach of the Publisher Service Agreement with respect to such Publisher's participation in Your Program; or,
  • (c) with respect to a Sale, non-receipt of payment from, or refund of payment to, the Visitor by You.

  • New, Extended and Corrected Transactions must be processed by You, either through the Account Manager user interface or through a scheduled data transfer (in accordance with SiteAds's processes and procedures) by the 10th of the month for Transactions that occurred the prior month. Failure to process a Transaction's status by the 10th of the month results in a Locked Transaction status. Payment of the Payout and Transaction Fees associated with that Transaction must then be authorized by You. "Corrected" means that You have reviewed the Transaction and that You represent and warrant that the Transaction qualifies as a "Chargeback". New Transaction statuses may be changed to Extended status by You only in circumstances where:
  • (a) You are verifying a Lead (for Lead actions); or
  • (b) You have a product return policy or offer that allows the Visitor to return the product during the "Chargeback Period" (but not beyond). "Chargeback Period" means the period of time between the date that a Sale occurred (for Sale actions) or that the Lead was completed (for Lead actions) and the 10th of the following month. If the Transaction is Extended, the Chargeback Period is extended through the 10th of the second month after the date of the Transaction.

  • f) Campaign Results Approvals And Refund Policy - Advertiser CPA (Cost Per Action), CPL (Cost Per Lead) and CPS (Cost Per Sale) campaigns can be set on either manual or automatic approval basis. It is an Advertisers responsibility to determine which type of approval is right for them and their particular campaign. Manual approvals must be undertaken in a timely way and it is recommended for Advertisers to approve or reject results on a daily basis or as soon as possible. Advertisers have until the last day of the following month to manually approve or reject results from the previous month. On the net day (the 1st) all pending results will be automatically approved and resulting costs deducted from an Advertisers account.
    Campaigns set to auto-approve leads cannot be reversed unless Advertiser provides a contemporaneous list of the IP addresses for rejected leads and before the last day of the following month. Once a payment to a Publisher has been made it cannot be reversed.
