1. How do I get started?

• Read the AzureBay Associates Program Operating Agreement

• Fill out the Online Application

• Once accepted, begin by building your links. Set up your online store and download our graphics and logos. That's all there is to it.

Yes, you may participate in the Associates Program if you live outside the USA. However, to be an associate your website must not:

• Promote sexually explicit materials
• Promote violence
• Promote discrimination based on race, sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or age
• Promote illegal activities
• Violate intellectual property rights
• Include "Azurebay" or variations or misspellings thereof in their domain names

No. The Associate Program is free. There is no minimum sales quota required, either.

You must identify your site as a program participant, but you are not required to use our logo or graphics on your site.

The only suggestion is to try to make your recommendations or links look and feel like the rest of your website.

Unfortunately, we are unable to personally help each Associate learn how to write HTML or use the site development tool.

We recommend that you refer products that relate to your website's content. It's important to keep your site up to date. As time passes AzureBay will have new products. Know what products would interest your customers so that when AzureBay introduces new products you will know if your visitors would be interested in them.

8. Can I take the order on my website and just send the customer and order information to AzureBay?

NO. Let AzureBay take care of everything for you. Your customers will get the latest information on our products and more ordering options when they use our ordering system.

Your site will qualify for the program as long as it does not promote any of the following:

• Sexually explicit material
• Violence
• Discrimination based on race, sex, religion, national origin, physical disability, sexual orientation, or age
• Illegal activities
• Violation of intellectual property rights
  

Product descriptions should come from your own point of view, so we suggest you use your own recommendations. Your visitors will be more likely to purchase items you list for sale if you use cover art. This gives them a visual sense of the featured products. You may use any of the product descriptions found on our website as long as it is not taken out of context.

You can list as many products as AzureBay has available.

You may copy these from the AzureBay website. Our graphic images or text may not be modified.

PC Users: Right mouse click on the desired image and select "Save Image As"

Mac Users: Click and hold mouse button until menu bar appears.  Select "save this image as..."
