Affiliates whose primary business is posting coupons, who are viewed by the program as being a coupon site and/or who are tagged as coupon in our system, will not be paid commission for any sales generated without a corresponding valid coupon promotion or code. Valid promotions and codes are defined as those that are made available to the affiliate channel in general, through newsletters.. Coupon codes that are not real, expired, or not made available to the affiliate are not considered valid codes and the affiliate will not be given commission on these orders. These orders will be cancelled zeroing out commissions for improper use.

AFPS reserves the right to reverse orders (compensation) due to order cancellations, duplicate tracking, disputed charges, returns and program violations as outlined in these terms and conditions.
