About Constant Contact
Constant Contact sells email marketing and event tools to small businesses and non-profits. Its affiliate page pays up to $105 when a referral pays for a new Constant Contact account and says there is no cap on commissions or on how many customers you refer. The affiliate agreement, linked from the page as its Affiliate Terms of Service and last updated 18 December 2023, fills in some gaps and leaves others open. It names Impact Radius as the affiliate platform that tracks the program, and it confirms that trial sign-ups can count as qualified referrals but gives no amount, saying rates are shown on Constant Contact’s website and in the affiliate platform. It defines a Commission Threshold you must reach before payment without stating the figure, and it says commission fees are paid roughly 40 to 45 days after the end of the period in which they accrue.

- Anyone who needs the cookie window and payout threshold in writing before applying, since neither is published
- Partners already in a Constant Contact reseller or partner program, whose transferred customers do not qualify
- PPC affiliates planning to bid on Constant Contact brand keywords, which the agreement bars outright
