FAQs
What is the
HarvestLine
UltraBrowser affiliation program?
For any entity with a constituent
base, HarvestLine.com offers a co-branded world class UltraBrowser that
establishes a prominent identity with a permanent link to their website. This
fully outsourced, customized Internet solution enhances a ministry’s ability to
protect and grow its existing constituent base. The HarvestLine UltraBrowser is
the ultimate loyalty device. Additionally, this unique and
revolutionary concept allows ministries the opportunity to receive potentially lucrative
donations from three different HarvestLine sources.
Why become an
affiliate with HarvestLine?
With this solution,
ministries work with HarvestLine to deploy their own branded browsers very
rapidly, in a matter of days. The scalable technology is hosted and maintained
on UltraBrowser systems, eliminating the need for customers to utilize any
outside resources except for their own content.
Does
HarvestLine obtain personal information on any of my constituents/customers as a
result of their use of the HarvestLine UltraBrowser?
Absolutely
not. No personal information is obtained about
any HarvestLine UltraBrowser user by HarvestLine. All information gathered
for statistical analysis is aggregate in nature and contains no specific,
personal information. We will be able to tell you what type sites your
constituents visit, what type of products are purchased, and how much is spent
in various categories; but no information is available to us about a specific
user. The aggregate information is for you, not us. You may choose
to use the statistical information to sell advertising space on your web site,
for example -- or not.
What does
HarvestLine do?
Have the private label (co-branded)
browser, the network, the infrastructure, the technology, and the services to

commissions (25%) based on percentage of the number of ad Impressions said user
group delivers. Additional 10% will be added if affiliate brings its own
advertisers.
Through E-Commerce
E-Commerce commissions (25%) based on percentage of net commission
dollars received (varies by Merchant) and generated by said
affiliate group.
Through Communications Products Usage
Should your constituents opt to purchase Internet
Access, Long distance services, or paging products from HarvestLine; the
ministry receives a donation that equals up to 10% of the total monthly usage of
those products.
Could you be both an affiliate and a merchant?
HarvestLine enables its affiliates to take
advantage of its diverse sales channel by creating mutually beneficial
relationships between its merchants and affiliates. In addition to becoming a
HarvestLine affiliate, an entity could market its own goods or services on the
HarvestLine
UltraBrowser network. HarvestLine UltraBrowser
will feature your site and showcase your product and services in all the
co-branded directories so that other affiliates can send their visitors from
their own site to your site. If the visitors buy the products or services, the
UltraBrowser affiliate will receive its share of compensation.
Contact HarvestLine if your would
like your merchant site added to the Faith and Values Channel, "Books,
Music, and more.." category. It is under development now!
As both an affiliate/merchant,
where would my eCommerce site be hosted?
UltraBrowser does not
require its affiliates or merchants to host their sites in our facilities;
however, through our ISP partnership, we offer a web-hosting package for
dynamic database driven websites to reside in a secure facility. Utilizing
high performance database servers connected to multiple Internet servers,
HarvestLine's partner offers secure, fast and technically supported hosting of complex
catalogs on many platforms. The servers have most large-scale enterprise
databases loaded and ready to host your information. The
systems are optimized to produce super fast response times to all requests made to the
database.
