At CostumeTimeCatalog.com we value the relationship we have
with our affiliate friends and companies. We appreciate your

provide the best affiliate program available. As such, here
is a brief description of our program.
In order to become an affiliate, you must first read fully
and agree to the Service Agreement printed below. Please read
carefully as there is important information contained in this
document. After you have read and agreed to this Service Agreement,
you may sign

of opening the account you should receive an email from CostumeTimeCatalog.com
to confirm your affiliate status, ask which websites you will
be linking from, and provide a link to marketing materials
including banners and text links that you may use to advertise
our site. When a customer clicks on your advertising, they
will be brought to our site and a cookie will be created with
a 30 day expiration. If that customer purchases anything from
costumetimecatalog.com during this 30 day period (provided
they have not personally removed the cookie from their computer),
it will be credited to your account. We will keep official
records of your sales and commissions earned. You may log
into your account above, but these figures are not official
and are presented only as a convenience to our affiliates.
We pay one of the highest sales commissions in the industry
because we appreciate all the hard work you do to advertise
our site. We currently are paying 15% on all valid sales.
Valid sales are for full priced items and does not include
shipping, handling, or taxes. We only pay commissions after
an order has existed for 30 days to reduce the number of payouts
on fradulent orders, returned orders, or chargebacks. After
a valid order has been in our system for 30 days and is still
valid, the 15% commission on the valid amount will be added
to your commission total. Between the 1st and 7th of every
month we examine all commission totals, and each affiliate
with a total of $50 or more will be paid out via a check from
our parent company, Carnage Industries, LLC.
