1. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
Discount Legends is a subscription-based platform offering members discounts from several retailers. Members pay a monthly subscription fee for access to these discounts.
As an Affiliate, you will promote Discount Legends and earn commissions for each active subscriber you refer. The subscriber must be a paying subscriber for you to receive a commission (you will not receive a commission for a subscriber's free trial period).
Customers can only purchase subscriptions through Affiliate Links. You will receive a commission when someone purchases a subscription using your Affiliate Link and will continue receiving a commission every month the subscription remains active.
You cannot purchase a subscription using your own Affiliate Link. If you do, your subscription will be cancelled and you will not be given access to the Members Area. You may also be terminated from the Affiliate Program.
