Purity Coffee Affiliate Program Terms & Conditions

Affiliate agrees to provide to Purity Coffee under the terms and conditions of this Agreement, services (the “Services”) in connection with Purity Coffee’s Affiliate Program (the “Program”). As part of the Services, Affiliate will create and post content (including, without limitation, text, videos and images) regarding Purity Coffee brand and Purity Coffee products on Affiliate’s social channels, blog/website, and/or podcast in an effort to generate sales.

By submitting an Affiliate Application the Affiliate agrees to:

Meet Purity Coffee’s Affiliate Program minimum content requirements, specifically posting about Purity Coffee at least 1 time per calendar month on social channels, blog/website, podcast or email (defined as 1 email or 1 podcast mention or 1 blog post or 2 Instagram stories or 1 static post/reel on Instagram or 1 TikTok).

Make every effort to refer at least 3 sales per month through your unique link and/or discount code.

Program Eligibility

As part of the enrollment process into the Affiliate Program, you must submit a complete and accurate Program application. If you are an individual, you must be at least 18 years of age. We will evaluate your application and notify you of its acceptance or rejection. We will determine your eligibility at our sole discretion.

Our screening process for affiliate partnerships involves reviewing applicants’ websites and social profiles to determine alignment with our company values and identify any posts with a voice and tone that we believe alienates or insults others. We also avoid collaborating with influencers and content creators with feeds that are highly saturated with sponsored content.

If we (a) reject your application or (b) terminate your account in connection with any violation or abuse, including, but not limited to any violations of the Terms & Conditions and the Brand Ambassador Guidelines, you cannot attempt to re-join the Program without our advance written authorization.

Brand Ambassador Guidelines

Our mission is to improve the world’s health by producing and promoting the most healthful and sustainable coffee. Our screening process for brand partnerships involves reviewing applicants’ websites and social profiles to determine alignment with this mission and to identify any posts which may detract from this message.

While we are firm believers in an individual’s right to express their beliefs around social and cultural issues with conviction, as a brand we choose to avoid collaborations with influencers and content creators who use their platforms to actively promote their personal views around politically divisive issues.

We avoid partnering with people who have publicly communicated in a voice and tone that we believe alienates or insults others. We believe in a world where people can disagree without being disagreeable, a world where people, regardless of background or beliefs, can come together to share a good cup of coffee.

Compensation

In consideration for the Services, Purity Coffee will pay Affiliate a percentage of the Net Revenue collected by Purity Coffee. Base commission terms are on new customer orders. Repeat orders from referred customers do not generate further commissions. Commission terms can be re-evaluated with the affiliate manager on a case-by-case basis.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Net Revenue” means gross fees received by Purity Coffee from Qualifying Orders less discounts, taxes, duties and transaction-based costs and expenses, including but not limited to payment process fees and shipping fees. 

For purposes of this Agreement, “Qualifying Orders” means purchases of Purity Coffee product(s) via the Affiliate’s Referral Link or purchases placed using the Affiliate’s unique discount code that are made by a method of payment accepted by Purity Coffee. 

The Commission is only paid to Affiliate if the Qualifying Order is final -any returns will cause that specific Commission to be deducted out of the earning period payouts. 

The Commission will be calculated solely based on records maintained by Purity Coffee and Refersion. 

Commission generated from 3rd party coupon sites where coupon conversion triggers are shared will be rejected. These include, but are not limited to the following sites:

retailmenot.com

Earnings periods run from the 1st day of the month thru the last day of the month. Purity Coffee will approve commissions no later than 30 business days following an earnings period and process commissions no later than 45 business days following an earnings period. 

Commissions due will be made by Purity Coffee to Affiliate through PayPal Holdings, Inc. Affiliate is solely responsible for creating and maintaining a PayPal account and adding such account information to Refersion for purposes of receiving payments.

Affiliate must also provide Purity Coffee a completed W-9 for purposes of receiving payments and a 1099. Commission will not be paid without a W-9 on file. Purity Coffee will issue a 1099 to Affiliates who are paid $600 or more each year.
