Requirements for joining the programme

Any person, company or organisation that meets the following requirements may apply to join the programme and become a member:

  • The applicant must be a natural person over 18 years of age or a legally constituted legal entity (through the natural person who has the legal capacity to represent it), with full capacity to contract.
  • The applicant must own or have rights to the media to be used for affiliate activity, or be expressly authorised by the owners of the website(s) for this purpose.
  • The natural or legal person shall issue an invoice for the amount of the commissions, in arrears, which shall be paid 30 days after the invoice date, with payment due on the 30th of each month.
  • The applicant must have read, understood and assumed all the rights and obligations defined in these conditions.

All eligible applicants can register through the maikaipets.com website, in the MAIKAI Pets affiliate area. It is a prerequisite that the applicant has a bank account in order to be able to receive the commission payments derived from his affiliate activity.

MAIKAI Pets will make payments via bank transfer or PayPal and will not be responsible for or make payment via other channels if an affiliate is unable to receive a payment because they do not have a bank account. The applicant must provide all the details requested in the affiliate account creation form, ensure that all such details are accurate and keep them correctly updated at all times.

In the process of creating the account, the affiliate will indicate a user name, then receive an email with their generated password (which can be changed later from the “Ambassadors and Affiliates – Dashboard” section), and finally they will have to register in the affiliate area with a user. With these two parts, you will have access to the “Ambassadors and Affiliates – Dashboard” area by fulfilling the above mentioned requirements.

Conditions for joining the Programme

The application to join the Ambassadors and Affiliates programme is completely free of charge.

Acceptance of the application to join the Affiliate Programme means that as an Ambassador or Affiliate you accept the terms and conditions and agreements to be governed by it.

MAIKAI Pets reserves the right to refuse or cancel the registration to the programme to any applicant or member who does not meet the necessary requirements described in the conditions of the programme. It also reserves the right to refuse or cancel registration in cases where it considers the applicant’s profile, conduct or support to be unsuitable for membership of the affiliate programme.

Nothing in these terms and conditions shall create, or be construed to create, a partnership or employment relationship between the parties to the contract, which are MAIKAI Pets and the member. This will not give rise to any legal recourse against us for the rejection of your application.

In the event that, for any reason, the affiliate needs to make an investment in order to be able to develop its activity in the context of this programme, this investment shall be the sole responsibility of the affiliate. That is to say, if for example you need to make an investment to improve your website or to use marketing tools, this investment is your responsibility alone.

Fees and payments

In the event of a purchase of MAIKAI Pets products through the qualified link included in the affiliate’s media, MAIKAI Pets will pay the affiliate a fee in the amount of 10% of the direct sales price of the product excluding taxes. If a discount or special promotion is applied to this price, the fee percentage will still be calculated on the price of the payment made by the referrer. The affiliate will only earn commission on the sale of MAIKAI Pets products. In any case, commission percentages will not be calculated for shipping costs, only for the products sold.

MAIKAI Pets reserves the right to change the amounts of these fees at any time.

The commission percentage for the affiliate may be increased if their activity is clearly beneficial to the reputation of MAIKAI Pets and/or reports a significant volume of product sales.

In the event that MAIKAI Pets decides to reduce the percentage of these commissions, the affiliate will be duly informed via the email address provided during registration in the affiliate programme. In this case, the new fee amounts shall be applied after such notice, but not before it.

Commissions will only be paid for transactions that have been successfully completed and after the 30-day return period set by the buyer from the date of purchase has elapsed. No fees are payable on transactions giving rise to returns or refunds.

An affiliate will not receive commission on purchases made by itself, and will not receive a commission on its own accounts. Affiliates will only receive commissions for orders that come directly from your affiliate link, no subsequent purchases from customers who initially came from your link will be paid.

The commissions generated by the affiliate can be reclaimed by the affiliate when they reach a total of 30 Euros (including taxes). The affiliate shall provide the corresponding invoice for this purpose, which must meet the requirements of the applicable legislation. Only natural and legal persons who meet the legal requirements for invoicing may become members.

Every commission you earn will be credited to your MAIKAI Pets affiliate account. You can request payment of the credit to your account when you have reached the minimum commission of 30€ and for purchases that have gone 30 days without being reimbursed. To request it you will have to manage it from your affiliate control panel and request the withdrawal. Remember that you must upload an invoice with the correct details so that we can proceed with the payment.

If you are not a freelancer, company or simply prefer, we can generate a voucher for you to buy at MAIKAI Pets for the value of the commission to be withdrawn.

Your commissions do not expire and will be held until we receive a payment request from you.

After validation by MAIKAI Pets, payment of the invoice will be made by bank transfer or transfer through the PayPal service, on the 15th day of the month following the month in which the Affiliate issues the invoice.

As an affiliate you are responsible for the declaration of all income and the payment of all fees to the state, levied on income received from MAIKAI Pets.

Validity and resolution

The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be effective from the time you become an Affiliate and obtain your unique URL, link or qualified link.

Either party may terminate this contract with 5 days’ notice, and the affiliate must, once the contract has been terminated, remove any link or link to MAIKAI Pets from its support/s.

MAIKAI Pets, for its part, shall settle all outstanding payments, thus terminating any contractual obligation, without having any further claims under the contract, provided that 30 days have elapsed since the last purchase was made from your link.

Loss of Ambassadorial or Affiliate status

Your application for membership and status in the programme may be suspended or terminated for any of the following reasons:

  • Each user is entitled to use only one registered account, and it is strictly forbidden for the same person to register under several names/email addresses in order to create a network of affiliates and earn fees on all their accounts. This will result in the loss of membership on all accounts.

  • The conclusion of operations or transactions by illicit or fraudulent means.
  • Any other conduct by which the affiliate creates the false belief among users that it has a commercial relationship other than that regulated in these conditions and that it is limited exclusively to the mere provision of affiliate services for MAIKAI Pets or that different service or contract conditions are being offered than those offered by MAIKAI Pets at that particular moment.
  • Failure to comply with the conditions and time limits established by MAIKAI Pets explicitly for the promotion of certain special promotions.
  • Inactivity on the part of the affiliate for 90 or more calendar days, where inactivity is understood to mean not obtaining any sales from referrals by the affiliate, except in cases where the affiliate obtains constant economic benefit from its created network.
  • Inappropriate advertisements (false claims, misleading hyperlinks, etc.).
  • Advertising on sites containing or promoting illegal activities.
  • Infringement of intellectual property rights. MAIKAI Pets reserves the right to require licensing agreements from those using MAIKAI Pets trademarks in order to protect our intellectual property rights.
