To become a Crazy Eye Marketing Affiliate, you must submit an application through Crazy Eye Marketing’s Affiliate Signup, available at https://www.crazyeyemarketing.com/affiliates/. By submitting an application for an Affiliate Program Account, you agree to these Affiliate Program Terms and Conditions, Crazy Eye Marketing’s general terms and conditions, and Crazy Eye Marketing’s privacy policy. This agreement incorporates both the Terms and Conditions and Crazy Eye Marketing’s privacy policy by reference, including Section 15 which provides for binding arbitration and a waiver of class action rights.

Please review those terms carefully, as they affect your legal rights.

Affiliates must be 18 years or older, or the age of majority, in the jurisdiction where the Affiliate resides.
- Qualified Referrals and Commissions
Affiliates will receive commission for Qualified Referrals to Crazy Eye Marketing. The percentage of commission may change at any time and without notice.
“Qualified Referrals” mean customers referred by the Affiliate to Crazy Eye Marketing and who (1) purchase a monthly or yearly subscription to Crazy Eye Marketing or another Crazy Eye Marketing product; and (2) who do not request a refund of Crazy Eye Marketing purchases, products, or subscriptions.
Affiliates who share the same personal/company details, including but not limited to, last name, email address, IP address, website details or commission payment details, as their referred customer will be deemed to have made a “self-referral.” Referral commission and any earnings associated with this type of “self-referral” will not be paid. Crazy Eye Marketing in its sole discretion will determine the meaning of “self-referral” and classification of any referral as a “self-referral.”
Affiliates referrals made to current Crazy Eye Marketing customers will be considered “current customer referrals.” Referral commission and any earnings associated with this type of “current customer referral” will not be paid. Crazy Eye Marketing in its sole discretion will determine the meaning of “current customer referral” and classification of any referral as a “current customer referral.”
Crazy Eye Marketing, in its sole discretion, may determine that no commissions will be earned on particular “Add-On” products and subscriptions due to associated administrative costs or high production costs.
Commissions earned on referrals become “payable” after 60 days, which constitutes Crazy Eye Marketing’s current money-back guarantee/refund period for customers.
If at any time, a referred customer files a credit card dispute, any earned affiliate commissions on those disputed charges shall become “frozen” in the referring Affiliate’s account until the dispute is settled. If the dispute is settled in Crazy Eye Marketing’s favor, any associated earned commissions may again become payable to the referring Affiliate. If the dispute is settled in the customer’s favor, any associated earned commissions shall not be paid to the referring Affiliate. If commissions have already been paid out to the referring Affiliate, the amount of paid earned commissions on the disputed charges shall be debited to the Affiliate’s account.
You will not receive any interest on commissions held to your account.
Commission payments may be made via check or electronic payment. Affiliate is responsible for paying all applicable fees associated with accepting payments, including but not limited to, currency conversion fees, transaction fees, withdrawal fees, deposit fees, check cashing fees, etc.
Crazy Eye Marketing, in its sole discretion, may disqualify an Affiliate from participation in the use of any or all portions of the Site if such Affiliate engages in any conduct that Crazy Eye Marketing deems to be illegal, improper, unfair or otherwise adverse to the operation of the Crazy Eye Marketing or detrimental to other users of the Crazy Eye Marketing.
Crazy Eye Marketing reserves the right to request documentation needed to verify Affiliate accounts. These requests may be made at the time of Affiliate application, or at any time while the Affiliate has an active Affiliate account.

You hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless Crazy Eye Marketing, and its merchants, employees, agents, and shareholders, against any and all claims, actions, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, settlements, costs, and expenses.
Crazy Eye Marketing reserves the right to change the terms and conditions or functionality of the Crazy Eye Marketing Affiliate program at any time without notice.
