You certify that all such information is truthful and accurate. Notice of such changes should be sent to referral [email protected].  

SECTION 2 – APPLICATION 

You agree to provide all information requested by Content With Tony in connection with Your Affiliate application (when application is requested), and You affirm that all information that You provide is truthful and accurate. You understand and agree that Content With Tony retains sole and exclusive discretion to determine whether You qualify for participation in Content With Tony’ Affiliate program. Not everyone who applies for Content With Tony’s Affiliate program will qualify to participate.

SECTION 3 – CONSENT TO BE CONTACTED 

You expressly consent to be contacted at the email address and the phone number You provide in Your application about Your application and the Affiliate program, including through automated dialing systems, texts, and artificial or pre-recorded messages, whether by Content With Tony or a third-party on behalf of Content With Tony. This consent is a material condition of this Agreement and may not be revoked except in writing by both Parties.

SECTION 4 – COMPENSATION  

As an affiliate, You may accrue a commission for each purchase of a product/s purchased by traffic that You drive to Content With Tony and which meets the definition of a “Qualified Purchase” and the requirements set forth herein. A “Qualified Purchase” is the purchase of a product/s by a new and unique customer who: (i) clicks on an affiliate tracking link; (ii) completes the purchase at the time of clicking on the Affiliate tracking link; (iii) pays in full at the time of Affiliate tracking link-initiated purchase; and (iv) does not request a refund or chargeback. Paid Commissions may be subject to clawback due to a refund or chargeback that happens outside of the standard return policy.

Affiliate accounts must be active at the time of the referral. No commission will accrue for sales that occurred before Your participation in the Affiliate Program, after the expiration of Your participating promotion period, or after a potential customer is contacted directly by a Content With Tony employee or contractor.  

All Commissions are paid in U.S. Dollars (USD) or in currencies offered by the payment provider. The standard Commission for a Content With Tony Qualified Purchase is 80% of the price of the program you sell, but this amount is subject to change. If the customer does not pay in full, the Affiliate will receive the appropriate percentage of their commission equal to the percentage of payment that the customer will be paying monthly for the duration of their agreed payment cycle. We may amend or change the standard rates at any time. Any such changes will not apply to any commission made prior to the change. Affiliate Commissions for Partial paid Qualified Purchases will depend on the amount of the partial payment received but will be proportionate to the same percentage as a full pay. Some payment methods may incur processing fees that may be deducted from Your Commissions. All commissions for Qualified Purchases will only become payable once You have provided all relevant tax and address documentation as required by the Internal Revenue Service.  

You agree to register with our third-party payment provider to receive payment of Commissions. This means You are authorizing third party companies to contact You.  Before You can be paid any Commission, You must provide Content With Tony a completed W-8, or W-9 tax form, as instructed by Content With Tony, as well as any supporting documentation requested by Content With Tony or its third-party payment provider. You will be deemed to have permanently waived all rights to Commissions that were earned more than 120 days before submitting a completed W-8 or W-9 tax form or any supporting documentation that is requested to confirm the information on your tax form. If You are not a resident of the United States, Content With Tony may withhold tax (including without limitation VAT) where required by applicable law. You are solely responsible for complying with all tax laws in Your respective jurisdiction(s) including, but not limited to, the payment of all required taxes, and filing of all returns and other required documents with, the applicable governing body(ies).

If Content With Tony determines, in its sole and exclusive discretion, that any Sale was procured fraudulently or as a result of any violation of this Agreement or applicable law, no Commission will be paid for such Sale and, for past sales, such payment amounts shall be deducted from Your future Commissions and Content With Tony may terminate this Agreement immediately, without notice, and without Content With Tony having any liability to You.

As an affiliate, You agree to not use any marketing material that has not been provided or approved by Content With Tony. You agree to follow FTC guidelines regarding marketing procedures. This includes but is not limited to implied impressions, testimonials that are not documented, money claims (even if it is Your own story) or any other action or inaction that would imply that the student will make money if they buy this program. 

Missing or untracked Affiliate commissions must be reported within 30 days of the initial transaction along with evidence of prior relationship and it will be credited to Your account at our sole discretion, provided that such credit has accrued pursuant to the terms contained herein. Referrals that are not reported during the then current referral period will not be credited to Your account.

The Affiliate commissions will be paid at least 30 days after the purchase has been made. Once the Qualified Purchase is recorded, payments are processed via Stan and Paypal. You agree to pay for any transaction fee associated with the ewallet payment system on Your Qualified Purchases. 

You are responsible for all fees, taxes, exchange rates, surcharges, and other expenses incurred in order to receive their commissions. Please check with your local banking institution to find out if any of these apply for your account.

Any action relating to this Agreement must be brought in the courts located in Colorado. Each party further consents to the exercise of personal jurisdiction by any such court with respect to any such proceeding. 

SECTION 12 – CREATE & CONVERT AFFILIATE OPTIONS

The Create & Convert (“CNC”) program offers multiple opportunities for Affiliates to earn income, depending on the method through which they promote CNC. All activities related to CNC must comply with this Agreement, including Appendix A’s advertising and disclosure rules. There are currently three (3) pathways to participate in the CNC affiliate program:

1. Selling the CNC Course via Stan Store
To receive affiliate commissions for selling the CNC course, you must have purchased the program through a Stan Store link (either directly from Content With Tony or through another authorized affiliate). Stan is the only platform that enables automatic commission tracking and payouts for CNC.

Upon purchase, you will receive an email from Stan containing your unique affiliate link. If you did not receive it, check the inbox associated with your purchase. If you originally accessed the course via a different platform or through a bundle in another program but still have access on Skool, please contact Tony via direct message on Skool and provide your purchase email. Once verified, we will issue you a complimentary Stan Store purchase to generate your affiliate link. There is no cost to use Stan’s affiliate link program.

2. Selling Access to the Paid Skool Community
Affiliates may earn a 50% recurring commission by referring members to the paid Skool community ($40/month). Your personal invite link can be found in the Skool community’s sidebar under “Invite People.” All referrals made through this link will automatically credit your account with recurring commissions.

3. Bundling CNC With Your Product
CNC Affiliates who wish to bundle the CNC course with their own product(s) may do so under the following terms:

You must have purchased CNC to be eligible to bundle it with your own offer.

You may offer CNC as a bonus to your customers, but you must remit a $40 payment per sale to Content With Tony to cover the license.

To activate this, request a private checkout link where you can input the customer’s details and your payment information. You will be charged $40 and your customer will receive CNC access via Stan.

IMPORTANT: You may not advertise the right to bundle CNC as a key incentive or value-driver in your marketing materials. While you can confirm someone else’s eligibility to bundle CNC after they’ve made a purchase, promotional language such as:

“Buy CNC + my course and then you can also bundle CNC and resell it with your own course!”
is strictly prohibited and will be considered a breach of this Agreement.

All advertising of CNC (regardless of the method of sale) must comply with the disclosure requirements outlined in Appendix A. Violations may result in the forfeiture of commissions or termination of your Affiliate account.

“Dos and Don’ts” of Content With Tony:

1) Identifying yourself as Affiliate and making proper disclosures

 

Disclose when you’ve been paid. This includes sponsorships, paid reviews, and links to products that aren’t your own (i.e. Affiliate product).

 

Disclose on each page a link is used. Even if you’ve previously disclosed a particular Affiliate link, it’s necessary to do so again when it’s used in a different area of your site.

When unsure, disclose anyway. This won’t cause any harm, and may actually prevent legal headaches down the road.

 

Be direct. Keep the disclosure short, and don’t beat around the bush.

 

Use ‘trigger words'. It’s best to use words that let your reader know immediately that you may receive compensation from your links. These words include “compensation” and “commission”.

 

Avoid niche jargon. Avoid the use of words that the general public may not know, such as “Affiliate”, “pay-per-click” (in reference to ads), etc., unless you also provide a direct explanation for them in your disclosure.

 

2) Income claims using proper disclosures

 

If an affiliate feels the need to share or claim certain income achievements,  they should include a text disclosure displayed simultaneously to the claim in question in addition to a more detailed audio/video formatted disclosure at the end of the testimonial. They could also provide a “visual cue” during the video where the claim is made to communicate to the viewer that disclosures can be found at the end of the video. Visual cue example: Results not typical. See earnings disclaimer at the end of this video.

 

For example, here is an audio/video earnings disclaimer that would be added to the end of any video where an earnings claim is made.

 

“This is not a get rich quick program nor do we believe in overnight success. We believe in hard work, integrity and developing your skills if you want to earn more financially. As stipulated by law, we can not and do not make any guarantees about your ability to get results or earn any money with any of our products or services, or the products and services we recommend. The average person who buys any “how-to” information gets little to no results. Any references or examples used within this page, or by someone on this page or video, are real and documented but are used strictly for example purposes only. Your results will vary and depend on many factors, including but not limited to your background, experience, and work ethic. All business entails risk as well as massive and consistent effort and action. If you're not willing to accept that, please DO NOT PURCHASE ANY PRODUCTS FROM THIS PAGE.”

 

Adding this will make you more trustworthy, of integrity, law-abiding and most likely help to convert more quality leads into sales.

 

3) Selling products vs. selling a “business opportunity”
