CGF Referral Fee Percentage

Depending on the Site you are promoting and the commission rate you are receiving may vary depending on the program you select. The Rev Share program: Allows you to earn up to 50% commission of gross revenue as a referral fee from new subscriptions sold on your Affiliates Personals Pages. Gross revenue only includes cash collected via renewing credit card or electronic check and does not include sales tax charges. The Pay per Signup program: Pays you up to $10 for every membership purchased on the site.

These programs may change at any time and without prior notice.

Referral program

Depending on the Site you are promoting you will earn 5% of referral revenue we pay to affiliates you refer to the CGF from subscriptions sold. Note: Affiliates should continuously maintain subscription referral fees higher than affiliate referral fees in order to receive payments and a min of $100 is required in order for a payment to be issued. The commission might change at any time and without prior notice.

Fee Payment

CGF will send out payments, by Check, Wire, PayPal or direct deposit on a bi-weekly basis. Only payments with a value higher than the minimum amount will be sent. If the payment amount is less than the set minimum, the payment will carry over to the next pay period until it passes the minimum amount ($100 for check, $200 direct deposit, or $300 for wire). Depending on the method of payment, applicable fees will be deducted from the total amount prior to the transfer. All accounts should surpass the minimum payment amount as well as have at least one (1) paid signup per week in order for their payment to be issued.

Refunds and Chargeback

Chargeback is defined as a return of payment after the customer disputes the transaction. A refund occurs when members cancel their memberships and receive a credit afterwards. If a subscription is later refunded to the customer or charged back by the customer, the referral fee will be deducted from the next weekly payment sent to the Affiliate. If there is no next weekly payment, the Affiliate will be billed. A breakdown of the transaction is found in the stats page. CGF will not pay any affiliate who has a chargeback and/or refund percentage of greater than 1%. If a Customer disputes or rejects a purchased Membership that we have already paid you Commission Fees based on the sale of that Membership ("Disputed Commission"), CGF will deduct the amount of the Disputed Commission from your account. The amount is equivalent to $50 depending on the program being promoted.
