Affiliate Program Operating Agreement
Welcome to Compralocas’s website for affiliates (the “affiliates Site”), where you can manage your affiliate marketing relationship with the relevant Compralocas entities (“Compralocas” or “us” or similar terms).
Any person or entity that participates or attempts to participate in our affiliate marketing program (the “affiliate Program” and such person or entity, “you”, or an “Affiliate”) must accept this affiliates Program Operating Agreement (this “Agreement”) without change. By registering for or using the affiliates Site, you agree to this Agreement, which are incorporated by reference (for example, our affiliates Program Participation Requirements, affiliates Program IP License, affiliates Program Commission Income Statement, and affiliates Program Trademark Guidelines.) Please read them carefully.
Basic Terms for Affiliates
- Affiliates can make commissions after each successful direct sale to consumers.
- Commission policies are regulated by the platform, and can be changed without prior notices.
- Commissions are calculated based on the total sales of products before tax. Shipping fee is not included in the calculation of commissions.
- Any refunds returned to consumers are not considered to be eligible commissions earned by affiliates. The platform will reserve all rights to take the commissions back from the affiliates by deducting from future commissions earned by the affiliates.
- Commissions will only be awarded for direct sales of specific products accredited by Compralocas. Any stores or products that are not authorized by Compralocas will not be eligible for commission earning.
- Commissions can only be awarded for the products that are in stock. Out of stock products are not eligible for commissions.
- The payment section in the affiliate platform must be filled in correctly by the affiliates. Mostly importantly, it is the affiliates’ responsibility to verify that their banking information is correct. The platform will not be financially responsible for errors initiated by the affiliates.
- The minimum commission amount of $100 USD should be met in order for affiliates to withdraw their earnings. Commissions lowered than the minimum cannot be withdrawn by the affiliates. Affiliates can withdraw their earnings once the requirement is met.
- Any affiliate accounts that have no activities for 6 consecutive months or longer will become dormant and removed.
- Compralocas.com reserves all rights to terminate any affiliate accounts and services.
- Affiliate accounts and passwords shall only be used by the registrants and not be given to any third parties.
- The commission will be calculated at the end of each month, and be paid within 10 business days of the following months (For Costa Rica).
- The commission fee is reviewed on a per account basis and is subject to correction if any error is found.
- The commission is solely based on sales made by link sharing. No exceptions. Therefore, sales that are not detected by our affiliate program will not be counted. Affiliates are advised to review the tutorials of the affiliated program, and to share the link generated by the affiliate account.
- Affiliates shall advise their referrals to select the affiliates’ names as their sponsors when completing the registration. This ensures that the invitees are taken on by the affiliates as their “downline”. It is the responsibility of the affiliates to instruct their invitees to fill in the affiliates’ names correctly in order for the downline structure to be accurate. This is because incorrect downline structure will result in income loss for the affiliates who take the effort to form their teams.
- The commission is paid out based on the level an affiliate has achieved. In addition, it is directly proportional to the number of downline affiliates an affiliate has.

Example A:
Jonathan starts at the Consultant level and has earned income by sharing his affiliate links. For each sale, he will earn a 3% commission on each product before tax. Assuming Jonathan now brings his friend Jack on board, if Jack (Jonathan’s downline affiliate) also makes a sale at level 1, Jack also makes a 3% commission on his sales. Since Jack is a downline of Jonathan, Jonathan will also receive an additional 3% x 15% = 0.0045 through the downline structure. If Jonathan’s 2nd level downline makes a sale, Jonathan will also make an additional 3% x 15% x 10% = 0.00045 through the downline structure.
Example B:
Jonathan makes a sale of 100 USD. Jack (Jonathan’s 1st level downline) makes a sale of $150 USD, Peter (Jonathan’s 2nd level downline) makes a sale of $500 USD. Let’s see how much commissions will each receive:
Sales | Before Tax (removing 13%) | Comision 3% | First level commission 15% | Second level commission 10% | |
Jonathan (Upline) | 100 | 88.49 | 2.65 | ||
Jack (Jonathan’s 1st level downline) | 150 | 132.74 | 3.98 | 0.597 | |
Peter (Jonathan’s 2nd level downline) | 500 | 442.47 | 13.27 | 1.99 | 0.0199 |
Jonathan will receive 2.65 + 0.597 +0.0199 = $3.27
Jack (Jonathan’s 1st level downline) will receive 3.98 + 1.99 = $5.97
Peter (Jonathan’s 2nd level downline) will receive $13.27
The first and second level will become additional passive income for Jonathan.
If Jonathan has reached 5000 referrals and 5000 USD for commission, his earned commission will move up as illustrated by the chart.
The commission rates are subject to platform’s regulations and subject to changes without prior notice.
