Question 1

How long must a referred member remain active?

Accepted Answer

ATLAS requires a referred member to remain active and in good standing for ninety days or another stated qualification period before a referral reward is earned. This requirement helps encourage quality referrals rather than short-term signups.

Question 2

Are there rules regarding affiliate promotion?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Affiliates are expected to promote ATLAS truthfully, professionally, and ethically. Affiliates may not make false claims, guarantee business results, misrepresent membership terms, or use spam-based or deceptive marketing methods.

Question 3

Can affiliates promote multiple teams?

Accepted Answer

Affiliates may be able to promote ATLAS generally or support multiple teams, depending on program rules, market availability, and the accuracy of referral tracking. Affiliates should promote ATLAS professionally and avoid creating confusion about category availability or membership approval.

Question 4

How are affiliate payouts processed?

Accepted Answer

Affiliate payouts may be processed manually or through approved payment methods selected by ATLAS. Payout timing, documentation, and tax responsibilities may depend on the amount earned and applicable requirements. ATLAS will consider “discounting” future membership dues in lieu of referral payments.

Question 5

Are affiliate earnings guaranteed?

No. Affiliate earnings are not guaranteed and depend on successful referrals, approved membership, good-standing status, payment completion, and compliance with ATLAS policies.

Question 6

What happens if a referred member cancels?

If a referred member cancels before satisfying the required qualification period, the referral reward may not be earned or paid. ATLAS may also withhold or reverse rewards if a payment is refunded, disputed, canceled, or otherwise fails to meet program standards.

Question 7

Can guests become affiliates?

Affiliate participation is primarily intended for ATLAS members and approved applicants. Guests may need to become members or receive specific approval before participating in the affiliate program.

Question 8

How do I register as an affiliate?

Team Leaders may be eligible to earn referral bonuses depending on the final compensation structure and program rules. ATLAS may allow Team Leaders to earn referral rewards in addition to leadership compensation if the referred members satisfy the required conditions.

How much are referral rewards?

Accepted Answer

ATLAS offers a one-time referral reward of one hundred dollars ($100) for each eligible referred member who satisfies the program requirements. Amounts and qualification rules may be updated by ATLAS over time.

When are referral rewards paid?

Accepted Answer

Referral rewards are paid only after the referred member remains active and in good standing for the required qualification period. The current structure executes payment after approximately 60-days, or after two (2) required billing cycles have been completed. Referral payments are not inclusive for “Chartering members”.
