Affiliates Program Terms and Conditions

Program Participation

Enrollment in TopicalStamps Affiliates Program begins with your completed Affiliates Program Application. We reserve the right to reject any application if we determine (at our sole discretion) that the site submitted is unsuitable for participation in our program. Sites may be deemed unsuitable for the following reasons.



Affiliate's Sales Area

TopicalStamps makes availabe to it's Affiliate's two different types of sales methods - branded and unbranded. Our branded method links directly to a special area of TopicalStamps. This area is used to display items available for promotion by you as an Affiliate. The design and functionality of the area shall be maintained by TopicalStamps.

Our unbranded method allows the originating site to call up pages from TopicalStamps via frames or other methods. These pages carry no TopicalStamps brand and can be called from our server for use within the originating site.

Commission rates vary depending upon choice of sales area.

Available Products

TopicalStamps will make available to it's Affiliates various products. These products include, but are not limited to, stamps, stamp supplies, and publications. The Affiliate may select any or all of the available products to be displayed by the Affiliate. It is expressly understood that not all of the inventory sold by TopicalStamps may be eligible for inclusion in this program. Commissions shall be paid only on those products which are selected for inclusion in the Affiliates Program.

Graphic Requirements

Once you have been approved as a member for the Affiliates Program you will be responsible for providing the required links from your site to TopicalStamps. In order to properly credit any sales initiated from your site, you will provide links according to our specifications and include your assigned user ID. This link may originate from any page within your site, however, the more prominent the link, the greater your sales potential. This product sales link will be directed to an area of TopicalStamps where your selected categories will be available to the customer. TopicalStamps will not be liable for payment of any commission where there is a failure by you to provide links according to our specifications, or where we are unable to properly identify the origiinating site.

TopicalStamps shall provide to you, the Affiliate, a small logo identifying you as a participant in the Affiliates Program (for branded participants only). You are asked to display this logo on your home page.

Processing of Orders

All orders placed by customers will be processed by Drumm Enterprises, Inc. and shall be shipped under this label. No advertising material shall be shipped with the products (for unbranded participants only). Additionally, we will be responsible for customer service and notification to the customer of the order status for branded participants only.

Commission Fees

Affiliate Program members shall receive a commission based on the following schedule.

    15% for items sold that displays TopicalStamps branding.
    10% for items sold without TopicalStamps branding.
Payment shall be due at the end of each calendar quarter for any commissions accrued during that quarter, except that if the amount due the Affiliate is less than $10, TopicalStamps shall reserve the right to carry the balance due over to the following quarter. Payments shall be mailed to you within 30 days of the date due. Should any product be returned by a customer, for any reason, or if the product becomes unavailable, or if the sale is not consummated for any reason, no commission shall be due on the item. If payment has already been made to the Affiliate for the commissions, any refund due TopicalStamps shall be deducted from future payments. If the Affiliate fails to have sufficient sales to cover any refund due us, we may invoice the Affiliate accordingly. Any such invoice shall be paid by the Affliate within 30 days.
