What is the EiPrinting Affiliate Advantage?
Our affiliate program allows you to place links to the EiPrinting/www.checksforless.com online store on your website. When
visitors to your site link to EiPrinting and make a qualifying purchase, we pay you up to a 20% commission. We also provide catalog
packets to our accountant affiliates, including samples of our products and an order form with your affiliate code pre-printed
at your request to hand out in person. Distribute these catalogs at seminars, information session and in your office.

No! It's absolutely free to become an affiliate.

Can a website outside the United States be an affiliate?
Yes. However, our online store is for U.S. customers only. We accept payment in
U.S. dollars only and will only ship orders in the U.S. In addition, all of
your commission payment checks will be in U.S. dollars.

I operate more than one website. Can I still be an affiliate?
Absolutely! You can have one affiliate account that includes all of your sites. You can track the results from each of your
sites separately and be paid with only one commission check.

How do I sign up?
First, you must read and accept our Affiliate Agreement. Then, complete and submit our online application form. After you submit your
application, we will send you a confirmation pending application approval. Once your application is reviewed, EiPrinting will send
you a confirmation e-mail with your username and password. Your EiPrinting Affiliate Advantage account will be active upon receipt of
confirmation.

How does the program work?
The program allows you to make money by referring customers to our www.checksforless.com website. You do this by placing links on
your site or by distributing our free catalogs with your affiliate code pre-printed on the order form. Every time you refer a customer
to us and that customer makes a qualified purchase or reorder, you earn a 15% commission. Every quarter you earn $25 or more in
commissions, we send you a check for the amount you earned. It's that easy! If in any quarter you earn less than $25, your total
balance will be carried over to the next quarter and a check will be sent once your commissions reach $25 or more at the end of a
pay period.

Is my website eligible to become an affiliate?
Most sites will qualify to participate in the program. We do reserve the right
to refuse membership to a site or revoke a site's membership at any time if we
deem that it contains objectionable material. For more detailed information on
EiPrinting's right to terminate an affiliate, please see the EiPrinting
Business Terms and Conditions.

What are my responsibilities as an affiliate?
The only thing you are responsible for is referring customers to us through affiliate links created by using the ad generator on our
web site to create and place links on your site or by using an order form. We handle everything else. What are your responsibilities? We will
provide you with the tools and support you need to maximize sales through your site. We also handle orders, shipping and billing for
all customers you refer to us.

I don't have a website yet. Can I still apply?
Yes, you may apply. However, you will not be able to participate in the internet portion of our program until your website is live.
Until then, you may use our catalogs and marketing materials to service your clients through EiPrinting.

How do I change my account information?

Your account information can be modified through this interface.

Will becoming an affiliate increase traffic to my site?

Setting Up Links
How do I create links?
There is an HTML code generator to create a banner ad link on the Affiliate Resource Center portion of our site that creates
HTML you can cut and paste into your website. The ad generator allows you to create many types of links to EiPrinting and
its products with ease.
Back to Top
Where should I place the links on my site?
You should place links where they are easy for site visitors to find. Consider placing links on your home page, navigation bar, and
any other high-traffic areas. If you place the links in an easily accessible location on your site, visitors will be more likely to
see and click on the link.
Back to Top
Can I use your content on my site?
You cannot post any other information besides what is provided at the Affiliate
Resource Center without the expressed written permission of EiPrinting. Only
links that are provided via checksforless.com's Affiliate Resource Center may
be utilized on your site.
Back to Top
Why does my banner ad show as an unauthorized link when I entered my website address correctly?
When you fill out our application it is important that you spell your website address exactly. Our system
will compare the website address you entered with the website address that our banner ad images are placed on. If they do
not match, then the unauthorized link image will apear. This is done to ensure that the proper accounts are given credit
for commissions, as well as ensuring that our banners are not placed on websites of objectionable content. While in nearly
all cases this is sufficient to place banner ads, in some special cases your website address may be an alias to a root
website address and the banner images may still not display correctly. If you feel the information you provided is correct
and your banners still do not work, contact our customer service department at 800.245.5775.

Through the Affiliate Resource Center, you can access reports - updated daily -
that provide information on impressions, click-through, orders, shipments and commissions earned.
Back to Top
How often do I get paid?
EiPrinting pays affiliates on a quarterly basis. If your commission for the quarter is less than $25, the total amount you earned will
be carried over to the next quarter. Once your earned commission meets or exceeds $25, a check will be sent to you. For more detailed
information on payment, please refer to the EiPrinting Business Terms and Conditions. Please note that EiPrinting has discretion to
cancel any affiliate account that does not earn the $25 total commission yearly.
Back to Top
Do I earn commissions on my own purchases?
Yes. When you buy products from us through your website, you earn the same
commission on your purchase that you would from a visitor purchase.
Back to Top
What about product returns?
If a user returns a product for a refund, or if credit card charges are reversed due to a dispute or credit card fraud, the amount
of the return or order cancellation will be deducted from your total commission amount prior to sending the quarterly check.
For more detailed information on returns and cancellations, please refer to EiPrinting Business Terms and Conditions.

How can I monitor my sales?
You can monitor your sales by accessing reports as often as you like through the
Affiliate Resource Center on checksforless.com.
Back to Top
How will you know that the orders came from me?
All links from your site to our site contain a unique affiliate code identifier. Every time a user comes to us via your site, we
know to credit you when a purchase is made. This is only possible, though, when you create all of your links with the ad generator
on the Affiliate Resource Center. Also, when you order using an order form including your code, you will get credit. All orders
that include products we have not printed for a customer need to be presented with an affiliate code to ensure credit for the sale.
Back to Top
How often can I run reports?
You can run reports daily if you wish. The Affiliate Resource Center, our
reporting portion of our website, is updated daily with the latest information
about your site.
