Once you complete an application to become an Affiliate, we will review your application and notify you whether you have been accepted to participate in the Affiliate Program, or not. Before we accept an application, we may want to review your application with you, so we may reach out to you for more information. If we do not notify you that you are accepted to participate in the Affiliate Program within thirty (30) days from your application, your application is considered to be rejected.
If you are accepted to participate in the Affiliate Program, then upon notification of acceptance, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall apply in full force and effect, until terminated, pursuant to the terms set forth below. Further, you will need to complete any enrollment criteria set out in the Program Page (https://www.carenami.com/affiliate) if applicable. Failure to complete any enrollment criteria within thirty (30) days of your acceptance will result in the immediate termination of this Agreement and you will no longer be able to participate in the Affiliate Program. You will comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement at all times.
We will pay you Commission, as described under the section Commission and Payment, for each applicable Customer Transaction made by a Customer Lead who completes a purchase of a Carenami product using the Affiliated Promo Code provided to you, provided that you remain eligible to receive Commission pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Only Completed Transactions, where goods or services of the Company ordered by a Customer have been delivered, the return period has expired, and thirty (30) days has elapsed since goods or services were paid for in full, will qualify for Commission. The payout rate is based on the price of the product at the time it is purchased by the Customer using the Affiliated Promo Code provided to you. You will receive Commission payment for the transaction made by the Customer using the Affiliated Promo Code only, and will not receive additional Commission payment for any additional purchases made by that customer during their Subscription Service. For example, if the initial Customer Transaction using the Affiliate Promo Code is for a Carenami Starter product, and there is a subsequent purchase by that same customer for a voice-enabled pod, Affiliate will receive Commission for the initial customer purchase of the Carenami Starter product only. The Affiliate will not receive Commission on any additional purchases of Carenami products by that same Customer. For recurring commission, payouts will be made month-to-month based on the monthly subscription rate of the goods or services at the time of the initial purchase by the Customer.
You will only be eligible for a Commission payment for any Customer Transactions that derived from Customer Leads who used the Affiliate Promo Code that we make available to you and are accepted by Company. A Customer Lead will be considered valid and accepted if, in our reasonable determination: (i) it is a new potential customer of ours, and (ii) is not, at the time of submission or sixty (60) days prior, one of our pre-existing customers, or involved in our active sales process. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may choose not to accept a Customer Lead in our reasonable discretion.

We will have no obligation to pay you the Commission associated with a Forfeited Transaction.
You are responsible for payment of all taxes and fees (including bank fees) applicable to the Commission. All amounts payable by us to you are subject to offset by us against any amounts owed by you to us. We reserve the right to alter or change the Commission amount.
