To begin the enrollment process, you will need to review the terms of the agreement and indicate your acceptance of these terms by clicking "I Agree" at the bottom of the page. Once you have agreed to the terms, you will be linked to our Affiliate Application. After you submit a complete Affiliate Application via our website, we will evaluate your application and notify you of your acceptance or rejection in a timely manner. We have no obligation to accept you as a Vita-Mix Affiliate. The terms of this Agreement will become binding upon our acceptance of your Affiliate Application and will end immediately when terminated by either party. Either party may terminate this agreement at any time, with or without cause, by giving the other party written notice of termination. If this Agreement is terminated, or we notify you of a breach by you, you shall be required to remove all Vita-Mix graphic and/or textual links (each of these links referred to herein as "Links" or, individually, as a "Link") within 24 hours of receipt of notice. The first sale of a Vita-Mix 5000 under the Affiliate program is not eligible for commission. Thereafter, you are only eligible to earn commissions if you sell a minimum of six (6) Vita-Mix 5000 machines within a twelve (12) month period; and then, only on completed sales through the date of termination. Commissions earned through the date of termination will remain payable only if the related Vita-Mix product orders are not cancelled or returned. We may withhold your final payment for a reasonable time to ensure that the correct commission is paid. We may offset the amount of any commissions previously paid on Products or accessories which are subsequently returned against any commissions due you.

The Vita-Mix 5000
1. Affiliate sales of Vita-Mix 5000 products and accessories will qualify for a commission when each of the following conditions is met:
1. All orders must contain your ID Code as Vita-Mix 5000 models are billed and shipped directly to your customer by Vita-Mix; and
2. Vita-Mix 5000 models are purchased by your customers by one of the following methods:
1. Your customer may click on the Vita-Mix link on your website and place the order in the Vita-Mix electronic store;
2. Your customer may contact the Household Sales Department at Vita-Mix, via phone, fax or email, and place the order; or
3. You may contact the Household Sales Department at Vita-Mix, via phone, fax or email, and place the order for your customer.
Your customer must use your ID Code when placing the order for you to get your commission and for your customer to receive free standard shipping anywhere within the UK and Ireland. Commission rates are as follows: 15% of net sales for qualifying Vita-Mix 5000 and 5% on net sales of accessories. The term "net sales" means the aggregate amount actually paid to Vita-Mix for qualifying purchases, excluding amounts attributable to VAT or other sales taxes, duties, and shipping and handling charges. Sales of any Vita-Mix product below the approved affiliate pricing guidelines will not qualify for the affiliate commission. Commissions will be paid quarterly on those qualifying sales on which Vita-Mix has received payment in full and verified that the machine has not been returned by the customer. In the event that a commission has been paid to you and we have to refund payment to a customer in respect of the products or accessories to which the commission relates, we will set off such sum against future commissions due you, or we may demand repayment from you. The commissions to be paid under this Agreement may not be assigned by you to any third party.
2. Customers purchasing Vita-Mix 5000 products and accessories through the Affiliate Program will be deemed customers of Vita-Mix. The Vita-Mix 5000 models are billed and shipped directly to your customer by Vita-Mix. All Vita-Mix rules, policies, terms and conditions and operating procedures concerning customer orders, customer service, and Vita-Mix product sales will apply to those customers. We may change our policies and operating procedures, including pricing, at any time. We will solely determine the prices to be charged for Vita-Mix products sold under the Affiliate Program in accordance with our own pricing policies. You may not include price information on your website other than pricing information that is made available on the Links we provide to you. Prices and availability of Vita-Mix products may vary from time to time. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to present accurate information, but we do not guarantee or warrant the availability or price of any particular product.
