Tropical Type Affiliate Program Terms and Conditions
Welcome to Tropical Type! Thanks for joining our Affiliate program.
The following terms and conditions apply to individuals who are accessing or using the Program both as a merchant (“we” or “merchant”) and an affiliate (“you” or “affiliate”) who refers customers to use products or services from the merchant.
By participating in the Program, Affiliate agrees to use the Program in the manner specified in, and are bound by, these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions in their entirety you are not authorized to register as an Affiliate or participate in the Program in any manner.
1. Approval or Rejection of the Registration
We reserve the right to approve or reject ANY Affiliate Program Registration in our sole and absolute discretion. You will have no legal recourse against us for the rejection of your Affiliate Program Registration.
2. Affiliate Links and Coupon
Affiliate links are automatically generated, but you may also generate an affiliate link for a specific product or collection. If a person clicks on someone else’s referral link and then later clicks on yours, yours is the one that counts.
Affiliates may or may not be assigned a coupon code, with usage terms and limitations clarified in the Dashboard. Coupon codes assigned by the merchant are intended for specific customers or campaigns only. Unauthorized distribution, indexing, or leakage of coupon codes outside of intended channels or audiences is strictly prohibited.
Affiliates are not permitted to run paid advertising (including but not limited to Google Ads, Facebook Ads, or similar platforms) targeting the merchant’s branded search terms, trademarks, or direct URLs. Activities intended to intercept or divert organic search traffic, or manipulate customer acquisition attribution, are considered prohibited conduct.
Violation of these terms may result in immediate removal from the Program with forfeiture of all pending commissions (see Section 7).
Affiliates may otherwise promote the merchant’s website via owned media, social platforms (e.g., Facebook, Instagram), or through offline classified channels, magazines, or newspapers in accordance with these guidelines.
3. Commissions and Payment
Refer any customer to make a purchase on our website, and you will receive a commission based on the published commission structure. Commission calculations are based on order value and exclude fees such as tax or shipping.
To receive commission payments, Affiliates must provide complete and accurate payment details within the Settings tab. Payment schedules are outlined in the Affiliate Guide.
Commissions are only paid for successfully completed transactions that pass internal review. All referred orders are subject to validation under a fair use policy to ensure compliance with acceptable promotional practices and adherence to program guidelines.
The merchant reserves the right to withhold or cancel commissions for referrals obtained via methods that contravene these Terms and Conditions, including but not limited to unauthorized ad bidding, coupon scraping, or brand name hijacking.
Commission and payment status are visible in the relevant dashboard tabs. Transactions resulting in chargebacks or refunds will not be eligible for commission payout.
4. Marketing Tool
We may share promotional assets such as banners, logos, or campaign-specific creatives via the Marketing Tool tab. Affiliates may download assets or use provided HTML embed codes to promote Tropical Type within approved affiliate channels.
5. Network
If the Network tab is activated, you may invite other users to become your downline affiliates. You will receive network commissions for qualifying purchases made by customers referred through your downline, subject to merchant-defined structures and approval.
Use your unique network link to invite new affiliates. Affiliates who register using your link will automatically be assigned to your downline.
6. Cookie
We use cookies to track referral activity. If a customer disables or clears cookies, we cannot guarantee accurate tracking or commission eligibility.
The cookie duration is displayed on the Affiliate registration form. Tracking begins at the moment a customer clicks your affiliate link or uses your assigned coupon. Any qualifying purchases made during the cookie window will be attributed to your account.
7. Removal from Referral Program
If an affiliate wishes to leave the program, they can do so by contacting tom@newtropicaldesign.com.
We reserve the right to remove any affiliate from the Program, without prior notice, in cases of non-compliance with these Terms and Conditions, including any conduct that undermines the integrity of the Program. This includes but is not limited to the misuse of coupon codes, use of unauthorized advertising strategies, or other exploitative or deceptive practices.
In such cases, the affiliate account may be terminated immediately, and all pending commissions will be voided. This enforcement is final and non-negotiable.
