Avjobs Accounting & Paycheck
Policy |
|
Pay
periods |
|
Pay
periods end at 12:00:01am on the
last day of each quarter. For
security reasons payment is by
check only. Checks over $5000
are sent at our expense by US
Priority Mail (US) or Global
Priority Mail (Europe, Canada,
Australia, etc) wherever
possible. We send
quarterly payment to Affiliates
in check form, drawn on US
funds.
|
|
Payment preference |
|
In your
account you may select an amount
from $100 to $1000 as your
payment preference. The default
setting is $100. We hold your
check until your payable balance
reaches this amount. A $2.50
accounting fee is deducted from
each check we issue. To change
your payment preference simply
login to your account, click the
link to "access your account",
click the link to "modify your
account", select the desired
amount from the drop down menu,
and click the "save changes"
button. |

IRS
compliance requirement for US
based affiliates earning over
$500 |
|
In
compliance with new IRS rules,
we require a federal tax ID
(EIN) for all US-based
affiliates earning $500+ per tax
year. This rule applies only if
1) Your mailing address is in
the US, and 2) You have earned
more than $500 in affiliate
commissions in a single calendar
year. EIN's are easy to obtain,
and not sensitive information
(like SSN's). They also
eliminate the need for "1099"
forms at the end of the year. If
you do not have one already, you
may click
HERE to get yours at the IRS
web site. The IRS will either
provide your number online, or
mail it to you. Once you have
obtained your EIN please be sure
to key it in to all of your
Avjobs Affiliate accounts, in
this 9 digit format: 12-3456789.
Note: If you live in the US but
you are not a US citizen, you
will instead need to fax a
completed IRS W-8ben
form to us at 888-624-8691. Be
sure to include a cover sheet
that indicates your account and
Avjobs Affiliate Number. |
|
Customer distribution
requirement |
|
Avjobs
Affiliate accounts cannot be
used for the sole purpose of
collecting rebates, or otherwise
extending credit to yourself or
others. To ensure compliance
with US law, Avjobs will
withhold payment of any account
balance until it contains
purchases by customers located
in four or more distinct
countries, states, or provinces. |
|
Sales
tax collection |
|
Avjobs
computes all applicable sales
taxes and presents the total
price to the consumer on the
order form. For digital
products, current US federal law
requires us to remit sales taxes
only for products purchased by
customers whose billing address
is in the European Union. |
|
Refunded sales |
|
If a
customer dispute cannot be
resolved we may be forced to
refund the sale. When a sale is
refunded the customer receives a
100% refund, and payouts from
that sale are debited back out
of the corresponding affiliate
account's. From the affiliate's
account we also deduct $1 per
refunded sale. |
|
Revoked sales |
|
A
purchase is revoked if the
customer's bank later claims the
purchase was unfunded or
fraudulent. Products that
generate such complaints cost us
money and harm our reputation as
a reliable product retailer.
From the affiliate's account we
deduct $35 per credit card
chargeback. Avjobs Affiliate
reserves the right to de-list
any product or group of products
at any time. |
|
Determination of affiliate |
|
The
affiliate (if any) we associate
with any Avjobs sale is
determined by an automated
customer tracking system. Any
decision made by this system is
final, and not subject to
petition or debate. Though we
believe our tracking system to
be more fair and accurate than
any alternative, we make no
representation regarding the
ability of the system to track
any specific customer, for any
specific length of time. |
|
Dormant accounts |
|
Accounts
with a positive balance but no
earnings for an extended period
of time are considered dormant.
In each pay period a $1 charge
applies to accounts dormant for
90 days, and a $10 charge
applies to accounts dormant for
365 days. |
|
Account closure |
|
You may
close your account at any time.
Any closing balance under $10
will be forfeited. |
|
Account transfer |
|
At your
request we can change the payee
associated with your account. To
initiate this process we need a
signed authorization statement
from the current payee sent to
us via certified mail. A $50
account transfer fee applies. |
|
Postal
delays & Reissued checks |
|
No
national postal service is 100%
reliable. If your check is
significantly delayed you may
request that we send you a new
check. Please keep in mind that
to issue a new check we have to
pay a service fee to the bank
network to recall (void) the
first check. A $20 cancellation
fee applies. To request that a
check be reissued, please email
sales@avjobs.com or call out
office @ 303-683-2322. |
|
Stale
paychecks |
|
Avjobs
Affiliate paychecks are VOID
after 90 days from the date of
issue. Please present your
paychecks to your financial
institution promptly. If you
present a check after the 90
days your bank may refuse the
check. We can issue a new check
if the stale check is in our
possession. Please write "VOID"
across the check and send it to
the following address with a
description of your situation
and request:
Avjobs Affiliate Program
attn: paycheck department
PO Box 630830
Littleton, CO 80163
After we receive the check a
new one will be issued on the
next payout date.
|
|
Stolen
paychecks |
|
In some
countries mail theft is not
uncommon. If a paycheck is
fraudulently endorsed (deposited
by someone other than you) you
will need to open a fraud case
with our bank. If the bank
determines that fraud did occur
they will reimburse us the funds
so that we may issue another
check. Avjobs Affiliate cannot
reissue a check prior to the
funds being returned to us or
prior to the completion of the
investigation by the bank. |
