What do you mean by 65% CLEAN?
By "clean" we mean that there are no processing charges, no hidden costs. When a customer that you referred to us signs up, you get 65% of the sale and also 65% of the monthly recurring billings that follow. For example, if your referred customer signs up for the monthly membership at € 25, you get paid out 65% of that, i.e € 16.25. If that customer is successfully rebilled € 25 the next month, you again get 65% of that rebill, i.e € 16.25, and so on until that customer cancels.
Most other affiliates programs advertise a percentage and then pile on the fine print at the bottom with * 's, so that in the end you land up with MUCH less than their advertised rate. We DON'T DO THAT!

Why do you bill in Euro and not in Dollars?
At the moment, the Euro is much stronger than the Dollar and we take advantage of that fact by charging in Euro. You also benefit from this by earning higher revenue. We also have the ability to bill in Dollars and if the situation is reversed, we can easily switch from Euro to Dollars thus ensuring that you continue to enjoy the benefits of the stronger currency.

How can you afford to pay out such a high rate (65%) when nobody else does?
Almost everyone else does not have the time or capital needed to program an affiliates program of their own, so they use the services of billing companies such as IBill, CCBill, 2000Charge, etc. to track affilates sales. These billing companies take a commission for their service, anywhere between 5-10%. So when a program that uses these billing companies advertises 60% for example, you do not earn a clean 60%, because they first have to deduct the service charges of the billing company and you end up earning only 50-55% and not the full 60% they advertise.
CelebClubCash does not use any middlemen. We have spent tens of thousands of dollars and thousands of hours programming our own affiliates program and can thus eliminate these service charges that eat away at your revenue.

If you don't use a 3rd party billing company, how can I trust you not to shave sales?
The largest chunk of effort in programming our CelebClubCash affiliates program has gone into accurate and reliable customer tracking. We use cookies and advanced IP tracking mechanisms to accurately identify and preserve the referal identity of our customers. Even if a customer signs up 10 years or more after he was referred by you, you will benefit from that sale. For example a customer clicks on your referal link, but does not immediately sign up. 10 years later he finds the link in his favourites and signs up, the sale will still be credited to you! Even if the surfer has cookies turned off, our advanced tracking system preserves the affiliate identity to accurately credit the sale.
CelebClubCash also provides affiliates with advanced reporting tools to accurately and reliably track all traffic you send our way and see how it converts.
We could go on for hours trying to convince why we are trustworthy and reliable, why we have been in the business for over 13 years, why we are a rock solid company etc. etc. but the proof, as they say, is in the pudding! CelebClubCash has been paying out tens of thousands of dollars every month, accurately and on time, twice a month, every month since March 1996 when we started our affiliates program. We have a reputation for honesty and dependability. We are on time, everytime ... it's that simple.

How often does CelebClubCash pay out?
CelebClubCash sends out checks and executes wire payments twice a month, on the 1st and on the 15th (unless these fall on a weekend or US public holiday, in which case the payment is made on the next business day). Each payment is for revenue earned two weeks prior to the payout date, i.e the May 1st payout is for revenue made during April 1- 15. The May 15th payout is for revenue made during April 16-30, and so on.

What methods of pay out does CelebClubCash offer?
CelebClubCash currently pays out via check or wire transfer. The advantage of payment by check is that it costs you nothing, the disadvantage is that it can take a week or two to arrive in the mail. The advantage of wire transfers is that they are made on the 1st and 15th of the month and you see the money in your account almost on the same day. The disadvantage of wire transfers is that they cost you €35 each. The method of payment is your choice.
We are currently in the process of also setting up a payment option via Paypal whereby we credit the money to your Paypal account.

How do you handle chargebacks?
Chargebacks are when a customer disputes the charge on his credit card, sometimes even months after the payment has been made. If there are any chargebacks resulting from sales that you referred to us, the chargeback amount(€ 25 or 80), plus €15 for bank charges are deducted from your coming payout. CelebClubCash does not keep back reserve funds from your revenue for this purpose.

Are there any limitations on how I can market your site?
Although we have over 13 years of experience in the market and have learnt most of the tricks of the trade, we must admit that we are constantly suprised every month by our partners who are a fountain of new ideas and innovations. There are very few limitations on how you can generate sales and these are detailed in our Terms. Aside from these, the sky and your imagination is the limit.

What other incentives do you provide?
CelebClubCash rewards you with cash prizes if you increase your sales over a certain percentage from the previous month. This is in addition to your regular payouts.
| % Increase from previous month | Cash Reward (% of current payout) |
| 8-10% | 5% |
| 11-20% | 6% |
| 21-49% | 7% |
| 50% or more | 10% |
For example: if your April revenue is € 8,700 and your May revenue is € 10,000, i.e a 15% increase from April to May, we will reward you with a cash prize of 6% of the May revenue (€ 600) and your May payout will in fact be € 10,600.
We do not penalize you if one month is less that the previous one, however we do reward you if it is more!
In addition to the above incentive plan, we run a competition for the top ranking affiliate partner. Each month we publish a list of the top 10 affiliates (with their initials only to preserve their confidentiality) and award the affiliate with the highest revenue a cash prize of € 5000.
Finally, our affiliates are automatically entered into our monthly raffle where they can win gift vouchers to purchase books, DVDs, electronic equipment and much more.

Is there a minimum sales requirement per month?
There is no minimum sales requirement. If you sell even one membership at € 25 the whole month, you will still get your 65% revenue, i.e € 16.25 (by check). If you have chosen to be paid by wire transfer and not by check, the amount in the payout must be more than €50, or it is carried over to the next payout date.
