SCHEDULE A
DUTIES, TERM, AND COMPENSATION
DUTIES: The Contractor will recruit members to join Paid2Bpopular and pay a monthly membership to be a part of the Paid2Bpopular social networking community. As a part of the membership, the member has the ability to be an Affiliate for the company. As an Affiliate (Independent contractor), you have full access to the Paid2Bpopular networking website and have access to the Member Management System (MMS) where your recruits are tracked. For each member you recruit, you get paid a commission for as long as they pay their monthly membership fee of $20.
If the member you recruit cancels their membership, you will cease getting paid for that recruit. You only get compensated for paying members that you recruit directly. You must remain an active member of Paid2Bpopular in order to continue to get paid for recruiting members as the Affiliate opportunity is a benefit of the membership.
COMPENSATION: As compensation for the services rendered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall pay the Contractor a 50% Commission of the $20 membership fee for each member they recruit per month or $10 per month per paying member on their team. You only get compensated for the members you directly recruit to Paid2Bpopular that join the membership. The calendar runs from the first of the month until the end of the month. Your earnings for the members you recruited will be paid within the first 10 days of the following month. For example, all members recruited and paid from June 1 until June 30th, you will get paid between July 1st and July 10th.
Free Member:
As a Free member of Paid2Bpopular, you will have limited access to the site and its features. You will have access to your profile, the Marketplace for your listings, the Blog section, and the forum section. You will not have access to the Affiliate business opportunity as a free member as that is a benefit of the paid membership. You will NOT have access to the other features of the full social network as a free member including the ability to upload photos, videos, music, arcade, friend section, social integration (facebook, twitter, etc), among other activities. These features are only for paid members.
At any time, you can upgrade your membership to a paid membership and will have access to the noted features as well as the Affiliate business opportunity.
Terms and Conditions
Welcome to Paid2Bpopular!
Paid Members: Paid2Bpopular is a social networking website that gives you an opportunity to make money off of social networking. Every paid member of our website pays a monthly membership fee of $20. If you as an Affiliate recruit a member to be under your team, you get paid a 50% commission or $10 per member per month that they pay their membership. The more members you recruit, the more money you make. If a member that you recruited cancels their membership, you will no longer get paid for that member.
You are required to set up an Affiliate account so that the person who referred you gets credit for the referral but you are not required to be a recruiting Affiliate of Paid2Bpopular. You can utilize Paid2Bpopular as a social networking website where you can share your thoughts, upload and share photos, create events, etc. If you choose to become a recruiting Affiliate, there is no extra charge as the affiliate opportunity is a part of your Paid2Bpopular membership. In order to be an active Affiliate, you must maintain your Paid2Bpopular membership as the Affiliate opportunity is one of the benefits of the actual membership. If you cancel your membership or if your monthly membership is delinquent, pay outs will be delayed until the membership is in good standing.
As an Independent contractor (paid member), you can recruit members to join the website for a monthly membership fee of $20. You understand that the monthly membership is for access to the social networking website and as a member, you have the right to become an affiliate free of charge. You do not have to be a recruiting Affiliate as a member. The Affiliate program is for motivated members who would like to make extra money by recruiting friends, family, coworkers, etc to join the website. For each member you recruit, you make a 50% commission of the membership fee or $10 a month per member that you recruit as long as they remain a member of the website. You understand that if a member cancels their membership, we are not liable to pay you for that member. You will only get paid for paying members. Your goal as a recruiting Affiliate is to recruit as many members as possible as to make the most money.
As an example, you recruit 10 friends the very first month you start. You will be making $100 (10 members x $10=$100) each month that those members pay. If the next month you recruit another 20 friends for a total of 30 friends, you will be making $300 a month (30 friends x $10=$300). Once a month, you will receive a check for your earnings for the previous month within the first 10 days of the following month. For example, if you have 30 paying members by the end of June, you will be paid $300 within the first 10 days of July.
As an Affiliate, you recognize that as you recruit members and make money, you will be responsible to pay income taxes at the end of the year. As an Independent contractor, you will receive an IRS form 1099 at the end of the year which will report all your earnings for that calendar year to the IRS. It is your responsibility to claim this income on your tax returns and pay the income taxes. As an Independent contractor, you are only an Affiliate of Paid2Bpopular and may not present yourself as an employee of Paid2Bpopular.
Nothing contained herein or any document executed in connection herewith, shall be construed to be an Employer-Employee relationship between the Company and Contractor. Contractor is an independent contractor and not an employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. The consideration set forth shall be the sole consideration due Contractor for the services rendered hereunder. It is understood that the Company will not withhold any amounts for payment of taxes from the compensation of Contractor hereunder. The Independent Contractor will not represent to be or hold itself out as an employee of the Company and Contractor acknowledges that h/she shall not have the right or entitlement in or to any of the pension, retirement or benefit programs now or hereafter available to the Company’s regular employees. Any and all sums subject to deductions, if any, required to be withheld and/or paid under any applicable state, federal or municipal laws or union or professional guild regulations shall be Contractor’s sole responsibility and Contractor shall indemnify and hold Company harmless from any and all damages, claims and expenses arising out of or resulting from any claims asserted by an taxing authority as a result of or in connection with said payments.
