5. Reports

europacco.com will provide each Affiliate with online reports detailing the packages sold with real money and the commissions payable. europacco.com will provide Affiliates with online access to this information. Should this not be possible at any given time, the Operator will provide the reports by e-mail with the above information. It is assumed that access to the system is not a prerequisite for participation in the Affiliate Program.

6. Terms of payment

The commission is 7% of the value of the shipment forwarded via the Affiliate company's website and may not exceed the maximum amount of ten euros (EUR 10.00). It is calculated once a month (on the last day of a calendar month) and paid by the 15th of the following month.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Affiliate is not entitled to commissions on income from real money that customers did not generate via the Affiliate's URL tracker. In addition, in the case of customers generated by fraudulent traffic (as defined in section 10), payment will not be taken into account for commission purposes if europacco.com, in its sole discretion, deems it appropriate.
The Operator reserves the right to change the Affiliate's commission payment plan for future reference and, if necessary, for (but not limited to) the following reasons (i) non-compliance, (ii) inaction, (iii) illegal activity. Provided that such change is communicated to the Affiliate in the contact e-mail provided.
The Affiliate understands that revenue per user is the amount that the customer pays with real money in return for the package, pallet or document delivery. The conditions can be agreed in the payment plan for a certain period of time. Any customer action reported after the agreed due date is not part of the payment plan. The agreed expiration date starts from the time the user registers under the tracker reported by the Affiliate.
In case of any doubts regarding the use of fraudulent elements with the aim of increasing a commission, the Operator will withhold payment of the above-mentioned commission and also of the follow-up commissions until it is determined that no fraudulent methods have been used. Provided that it is proven that fraudulent methods have been used, the commission will not be paid and the Affiliate Agreement will be terminated with immediate effect.
Commission will be paid to the Affiliate by europacco.com and must be credited, where possible, to the method chosen by the Affiliate within fifteen (15) days of the date the commission is calculated (as set out in section 6 below). However, europacco.com will not be liable for delays due to technical causes and events beyond the reasonable control of the Operator.
The commission can only be paid out if the credit balance has reached a minimum amount of fifty euros (EUR 50.00). All taxes due in connection with all payments to the Member Association always remain the exclusive responsibility of the Affiliate. The Affiliate shall be responsible for compliance with all applicable regulations, for the registration and payment of income tax and similar taxes relating to the Affiliate's income under this Agreement, and for the collection and payment of income tax and social security contributions to the Affiliate's personnel, if the Affiliate has personnel. If value added tax (VAT) or other sales or turnover tax is payable, the Affiliate shall be responsible for compliance with applicable regulations, for tax registration and for the collection and payment of taxes in the country where the services are provided, and the Affiliate acknowledges that the payments it receives shall be considered as VAT, sales or turnover tax.
The Affiliate must comply with all applicable laws and any policies regarding money laundering and/or proceeds of crime reported by europacco.com through the Operator's website or otherwise.
