Affiliate URL
A unique URL Tag will be issued to an approved affiliate of Voyagin's Affiliate Program, which allows both parties to track every affiliate referral completed via the link within the timeframe specified and commission owed by Voyagin to the affiliate for the same. Each Tagged Link will permit recipients to navigate directly to a page on Voyagin designated by us. You will be responsible for implementing the Tagged URL on your site to enable sales tracking. In the event of any URL omitted from your site, we will not be responsible for any failure which includes reductions of amounts that would otherwise be paid to you under this Agreement.
During the term of the Agreement, the Affiliate agrees and warrants that it shall not conduct, undertake, use, perform or exercise (or have or authorize third parties (to) conduct, undertake, use, perform or exercise) Paid Search, SEM or SEO activities related to the Voyagin brand or activities offered by Voyagin without prior written permission.
Affiliate Dashboards
The Affiliate will be provided with a unique link to a personalized dashboard, which will enable You to track clicks, conversions and value of generated sales.
Commissions
Voyagin shall pay the Affiliate a Commission based on the traffic generated by the Affiliate via its tagged links or connections. Commission shall be a percentage of the revenue generated by finalized transactions. Notwithstanding any products excluded from the program, products with a lower commission, and any agreements otherwise made in writing, the affiliate commission shall default to the Standard Affiliate Fee which is 5% of the price after any coupons or discounts from each order placed on Voyagin's site through properly tagged Affiliate links. Properly tagged links are the sole responsibility of the Affiliate.
Calculation and Payment of the Commission
Payment is made either via a bank account or a designated PayPal account furnished by the Affiliate. The Affiliate will bear all transfer fees which will be deducted from the transferred amount. It is the responsibility of the affiliate to notify Us of a change of payment method at least 7 days in advance of subsequent payments at affiliates@govoyagin.com to ensure such a change. If sufficient notice is not given and acknowledged by Voyagin, Voyagin shall bear no responsibility of payments sent to an incorrect account.
Commission owed for a given calendar month will be calculated for that calendar month in US Dollars (USD) based on completed bookings during that month. Completed bookings are those for which the guest's preferred date are within that month, excluding any refunded and/or fraudulent bookings. Commission shall be payable within sixty (60) days from the end of each month. In the event where commission owed does not exceed USD ten dollars (USD 10.00), payment will be held until it exceeds an amount of USD 10.00 or this agreement is terminated, whichever occurs earlier.

If the Affiliate chooses not to accept such modifications, the Affiliate will have the right to terminate the agreement at such time. Without such notice of termination of the agreement from the Affiliate, changes to the Affiliate Terms & Conditions will be considered accepted.
