Frequently Asked Questions
The Pass4sure Affiliate program allows you to create customer links and banners for your website or Affiliate Advertising Campaigns to capitalize on Pass4sure products. Visitors to your site who click on your Pass4sure Affiliate links and then purchase a Pass4sure product, will generate a 10% commission for you and paid monthly by Paypal（What's Paypal? Please view www.paypal.com).
Visitors to Pass4sure through your affiliate links are tracked using cookies stored in the visitor's browser. The cookie flags the visitor as your referral for 60 days. If the Pass4sure visitor decides not to purchase a product or service on the day they link, you will still get credit for their purchase, if it is made within 60 days.
Commission "checks" (Bank Account or Paypal) are sent once a month, on balances $100.00 and more.
There are no fees associated with the Pass4sure Affiliate program (unless you select payment by Bank Wire), you are able to make as many links as you like, for use on as many websites that like. (You are responsible for any hosting charges, internet access, and domain registration charges that come with creating a website and hosting web pages. Consult your hosting company, internet service provider, and domain registrar for more information.)
There are absolutely no sign-up fees or performance requirements for opening a Pass4sure Affiliate account. There may be a fee for sending Bank Wires if you select that as your payment type, depending on the country your bank operates from.
There is a minimum balance required before you receive a payment from the Pass4sure Affiliate Program. You must have at least $100.00 in commissions before we will issue a payment. If you do not achieve this minimum in any month, the balance forwards to the next month until you have reached that amount, or more.

Creating Pass4sure Affiliate links is easy! You can generate an affiliate link in less than a minute after signing into your Pass4sure Affiliate account.
There are programs available for publishing your affiliate links in advertising campaigns, and PPC (Pay Per Click) Programs, however placing the affiliate links within your existing content, or using banners on your own website will probably work best for the average website owner/operator.
If your website is new, or if your website does not have significant traffic, then you may want to look into advertising or marketing. Keep in mind that your commissions are paid based on sales from the links directed to Pass4sure, not simply the visitor clicking on the link or ads.
We recommend placing focus on Search Engine Optimization and relevant content within your existing site. Create value-added pages that appeal to your audience, with affiliate links embedded in the content. Natural appearing, or contextual links, tends to have a much higher click through rate, than glitzy banner ads.
Pass4sure provides customer and technical support to all of its customers regardless of how the sale was generated. Once the customer has left your site through the affiliate link and came to Pass4sure, all you have to do is wait for them to make a purchase. Pass4sure will handle the account creation, billing and processing, and technical or customer support.
As a Pass4sure Affiliate, you will earn 10% of each sale created through your affiliate links. A purchase of $100.00 in Pass4sure products will add $10.00 to your Pass4sure Affiliate Balance.
There is no limit to the number of visitors that you can send, and there is no limit to the amount of commissions you may earn.
Visitors arriving at Pass4sure through your affiliate links are tracked with a 60-day cookie, stored in the visitors' browser. The prospective customer can make their first purchase from Pass4sure any time during that 60-day window and you will receive the 10% commission for that sale.
Every Pass4suree Affiliate receives access to a Pass4sure Affiliate administration control panel. Within the control panel you can view your affiliate link stats, which includes: aggregate and by-channel impressions, aggregate and by-channel number of clicks on links, aggregate and by-channel number of sales generated from links, and total earnings from links (aggregate and by-channel data).
Every Pass4sure Affiliate receives access to a Pass4sure Affiliate administration control panel. Within the control panel you can view your affiliate link stats, which includes: number of clicks on links, number of sales generated from links, and total earnings from links.
In addition to this, you also have a segment of statistics displaying the exact products purchased from your directed traffic, and the amount of the commission generated. The sum total of all the purchases' commissions will equal the amount of your commission payment. The data you see regarding your traffic and sales is the same data we use to pay your commissions.
There are two methods for earning the commissions, by sales and by traffic. If you recommend the users by both of the methods, then you will be paid for the one whose earnings is the higher within the payment duration, and the lower one will be abandoned and recalculated.
As a Pass4sure Affiliate you have the option of being paid by Bank Wire, Western Union and PayPal. Once you have generated a minimum of $100.00 in commissions you are eligible for a payment for the balance of your affiliate account.
Payments made by Bank Wire take approximately three days to process and may include a banking fee, depending on your bank and the country it operates from.
Paypal payments are transferred to the owner of the Pass4sure Affiliate account on record when signing up. It's available for the owner to check in minutes, safe and fast!
Pass4sure Affiliate payments are made once a month. Once your affiliate accounts reach a balance of at least $100.00, we’ll send you a payment at the beginning of the month after next. The accounts should wait for a month for inspection upon sales and leads in case returns, invalid credit cards, or even fraud take place. Accounts that have not met the minimum balance will be carried forward to the next month, until the minimum amount has been achieved.
For example, if your total unpaid earnings reached $100 during January, we would send you a payment at the beginning of March.
If your total unpaid earnings haven’t yet reached $100, they’ll roll over to the next month and accrue until they meet the $100 threshold. Payment is disbursed within approximately 15 days of the beginning of the month.
Note: If returns or malicious purchase take place, corresponding sales commission will be deducted from your earnings.
For example, your sales of January is $2300, you will get a payout of $230 at the beginning of March; but if an order of $100 is found returned before the payout date, your sales of January will be $2200, correspondingly your earnings of January will be $220.
