TERMS OF SERVICE
Your participation in the Affiliate Program is governed by the following terms of service:

To participate in the Affiliate Program, you must go to https://podia.com/affiliates to submit an application. Podia reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to accept or reject any application for membership in the Affiliate Program for any reason.
(2) SELF-REFERRALS
Affiliates who share the same personal/company details, including but not limited to, last name, household address, email address, IP address, website details, or commission payment details as their referred customer will be deemed to have made a “Self-Referral.” Referral commission and any earnings associated with this type of “Self-Referral” will not be paid. Podia, in its sole discretion, will determine the classification of any referral as a “Self-Referral.”
(3) CURRENT CUSTOMER REFERRALS
Referrals made to current Podia customers will be considered current customer referrals. You will not receive referral commission for a current customer referral. Podia, in its sole discretion, will determine the classification of any referral as a current customer referral.
(4) MANUAL ATTRIBUTION
It is the responsibility of each Affiliate to ensure you’re sharing the correct tracking link when promoting Podia. Podia will not be able to manually credit referrals to Affiliates where the non-attribution was due to a customer mistake or Affiliate error.
(5) FTC ENDORSEMENT GUIDELINES
Affiliates must comply with the FTC Endorsement Guidelines (http://business.ftc.gov/advertising-and-marketing/endorsements). You must disclose the affiliate relationship you have with Podia and that you may receive compensation for purchases made through your affiliate link. These disclosures must be frequent, clear, conspicuous, and require no scrolling or other type of user action to locate. Affiliates who do not comply with these guidelines may have their participation terminated.
(6) MARKETING
You are fully responsible for all costs and expenses related to marketing and promoting Podia and/or the Affiliate Program.

represent and warrant that your marketing practices do not violate any of
these restrictions:
