What is the YCC Affiliate Program?
The YCC Affiliate Program allows you to place links to our products on your web site. Visitors to your site click on a link and go to YCC. For every person that you send to the YCC site that is unique, you receive $$3.50 per 1000 click thrus.
How does the program work?
The Affiliate Program allows you to make money by referring customers to our web site. You do this by placing links on your site. Every time you refer a new customer to us, you earn a commission. In every month that you have earned $100 or more, we send you a check for the number of unique visitors you referred to our site. It's that easy!
What is an "unique visitors"?
An "unique visitors" is defined as a business visitor that: (1) directly follows a Link from your site to the YCC site, is approved, booked and tracked by us on our system as an "unique visitors", that has never been a customer for the YCC product or service of which he/she has applied through your site.

Does it cost me anything to become an Affiliate?
No! It's absolutely free to join our Affiliate Program. There is no charge to apply and there is no minimum sales requirement.
Can a web site outside the United States be an Affiliate?
No, unfortunately we are unable to accommodate International web sites.
I operate more than one web site. Can I still be an Affiliate?
Yes. You can have multiple sites as an Affiliate. You can have one Affiliate account with us that will include all of your sites. You can track the progress of each of your sites separately and be paid with only one commission check.
How do I sign up?
First, you must read and accept our Affiliate Agreement. Then, you complete our online application form. After your application is submitted, we will contact you to let you know if you've been accepted as an Affiliate, and we will provide you with information on how to get started.
Is my web site eligible to become an Affiliate?
Most sites will qualify to participate in the program. However, we are primarily looking for sites targeting business owner or entrepreneurs. Anyone may submit an application to become an affiliate, but we reserve the right to refuse membership to a site or revoke a site's membership at any time if we deem that it contains objectionable material.
What are your responsibilities?
We will provide you with the tools and support you need to maximize sales through your site. We also handle the credit card processing and approvals for all customers you refer to us.
I don't have a web site. Can I still apply?
Unfortunately, no. In order for us to accept you as an Affiliate, we must be able to view your web site.
How do I change my account information?
Once you have been accepted as an Affiliate, you will be given access to YCC members area. Your account information can be modified here.
Will becoming an Affiliate increase traffic to my site?
Our Affiliate Program is a revenue-sharing program. It is not designed to help you increase traffic to your site; however, it enhances your site with content, so your user return rate may be higher.
SETTING UP LINKS
How do I create links?
We have an automatic tag generator in your YCC Account that creates HTML that you cut and paste into your web site. It is easy to use; even beginners can create links in seconds. The tag generator allows you to create a variety of types of links to our products.
Where should I place the links on my site?
You should place links where they are easy for your site visitors to find, such as your homepage. Don't forget that YCC services are for business owners, entrepreneurs and the self-employed, so you'll want to place your links in traffic areas that are targeted to these types of customers. If you place the links in an easily accessible location on your site, your visitors will be more likely to be attracted.
TRACKING, PAYMENT, AND REPORTING
How do I know how much commission I've earned?
Through your YCC Account, you can access reports, which are updated daily, that provide information on impressions, click throughs, approved applications and commissions earned.
How often do I get paid?
You will be paid monthly if you've earned $100 or more. If your referral fee for any month is less than $100, the total amount will be carried to the next month. Once it reaches $100, a check for the revenue you've generated will be sent to you at the end of the month (within 30-45 days) for the complete amount owed to you up until the end of that month.
How can I monitor my sales?
You can monitor your sales by accessing reports as often as you like through your YCC account.
Who processes applications and handles customer service?
We do all of that for the customers that you refer to our site. All you have to do is place links on your site. We do the rest!
How will you know that the orders came from my site?
All links from your site to our site contain a unique identifier so that every time a user comes to us via your site, we know to credit you when a purchase is made. This is only possible, though, when you create all of your links with the tag generator through your YCC Account.
How often can I run reports?
You can run reports daily if you wish. Your YCC Account is updated daily with the latest information about your site.
I operate more than one web site. Can you track them separately but pay me with one commission check?
Yes. You can have multiple sites under one Affiliate account. You can create links and generate reports specifically for each site, but you will receive one commission check for all of your sites. To set up an account with multiple sites, please contact us at affiliatesupport@yourcreditcompany.com with the names and URLs of the additional sites.
