What Is The Goldie Locks® Pro Affiliate Policy?
The Goldie Locks® Pro Affiliate Program was created and intended for our active professional wholesale salons and stylists. All active stylists in the Goldie Locks® Pro wholesale program qualify for an affiliate link invitation after their first qualified purchase. To request a manual account activation request please contact hello@goldielocks.com.
Goldie Locks® Pro Affiliate Program was created to provide our professional community with retail protection and the ability to retain client purchase commissions, not to replace physical retail opportunities.
IMPORTANT PROGRAM DETAILS
Goldie Locks® Pro Affiliate Program is a rewarding privilege exclusively for our active wholesale professionals. We believe in supporting your success, and to maintain the benefits of your Pro Affiliate Account, we require regular account activity.
While we don't impose order minimums, we do require wholesale order account activity every 90 days to keep your affiliate commission privileges. This ensures the program benefits stay within our hairstylist community. In the event your account is inactive, you may forfeit your affiliate program.
Overdue Balance
In the event that a professional stylist's Goldie Locks® wholesale account has an overdue balance, any approved commissions will be forfeited. This forfeiture is a direct consequence of the outstanding balance and reflects a temporary suspension of commission earnings.
Upon settling the outstanding balance and bringing the account up to date, the professional stylist may be eligible to resume earning commissions. However, the reinstatement of commission-earning privileges will be subject to a Goldie Locks® good faith audit. This audit is conducted to assess the account's adherence to program guidelines and determine the continued eligibility of the affiliate in the program.
Goldie Locks® reserves the right to make changes and or updates to the affiliate program(s) at any time including but not limited to commission structure, incentives, and determine a retro-date payment for any client purchases made without your professional affiliate link within 30 days of purchase available to qualified purchases.
