1. Introduction (For Publishers)

Thank you for using WordCast!

When we say "Company," "we," "our," "us," or "Service" in this document, we are referring to WordCast.

By participating in the WordCast Affiliate Program, you agree to comply with these Terms of Service. These terms govern your use of our platform, including the placement of In-Text affiliate links that display relevant eBay products on your website.

If you do not agree to these terms, you may not use our service.

2. Account Terms

• You are responsible for maintaining the security of your WordCast account and password.
• You may not use our service for any illegal purpose or to violate any laws in your jurisdiction.
• You must provide a valid email address during the signup process.
• Automated account registrations (bots or scripts) are not allowed.

3. How WordCast Works

• WordCast provides AI-driven In-Text links that automatically display eBay products relevant to your website content.
• You earn a commission whenever a visitor clicks an In-Text link and completes a purchase through eBay.
• Commission rates vary by product category. You can view the rates on eBay’s official rate card: eBay Rate Card.
• WordCast deducts a 25% commission from your earnings before payment.
• Your affiliate earnings, commission status, and performance metrics can be tracked in the WordCast Publisher Dashboard, where updated reports on clicks, conversions, and commissions are available.

4. Payment Terms

• eBay pays commissions directly to WordCast. You do not need to sign up with eBay.
• eBay locks commissions for 30 days after the end of the month in which they were earned.
• Payments are processed around the 10th business day of the month following the locking period.
• Example: January earnings are paid around March 12.
• Payments are issued after WordCast receives funds from eBay.
• Minimum Payment Threshold: The minimum threshold is $10. If you do not reach $10 in a given pay cycle, the unpaid balance rolls over to the next cycle. You will be paid once your total outstanding balance exceeds $10.
  
  For example, if you earn $5 in June, it will carry over to July. If you then earn $8 in July, your total becomes $13 and will be paid in the following cycle.
  
  In some cases, this threshold may be higher, depending on your payment method or country of residence.

5. Content and Affiliate Link Placement

• You may not modify or alter WordCast-generated affiliate links.
• You are responsible for ensuring that the links are properly placed on your website.
• You must not promote affiliate links in a misleading, deceptive, or fraudulent manner.
• You must not place affiliate links in spam emails, pop-ups, or any content that violates eBay’s terms.
