Affiliate Frequently
Asked Questions
Browse below for our most frequently asked questions
What days do payouts get made?
On the 10th of each month. We pay in a 40 day cycle. Example: Sales from January will be paid on the 10th of March. This allows 30 days for any order changes to be made prior to paying commissions.
Is there a limit on payouts?
You must have made over $200 in commissions. If you have not met that quota, you will be paid for all sales once it is met.
Is there a special link or code that I can get?
We will help set you up with a coupon code and link that match. We do ask that you use our link as it will show how many people have used it and automatically add your coupon to the cart.
What is the difference between the new portal and old portal?
We have made a new affiliate portal with easier access to tracking payments, orders, and how many times your link and coupon has been used.
How do you pay out?
For accounting purposes, payouts are made by check.
What does my coupon code do?
Your coupon will give each customer $50 off each unit in their order. The coupon code will then link the orders and the affiliate who informed the customer together.
Why do I need a W-9?
If you have made over a certain amount of commissions, we are required to send you a 1099 for tax purposes. The W-9 is required to process the 1099. We collect a W-9 for each affiliate up front to be prepared for when you exceed the IRS requirements to receive a 1099. If you are outside of the united states, we will need a W-8 form from you.
What do I do with a W-9?
You will need to fill out the W-9 and either mail or email it back to us. We will make sure our accountant receives it and they will keep it on file until your information changes.
Do you have any marketing material for me to use?
We have several items for you to use at http://www.empshield.com/marketing
What is the amount per order that I would make in commission?
Each affiliate makes 15% off the total of each sale.
How are my commissions calculated?
You give a customer your coupon code (or the customer uses your link which adds your coupon to their cart). When the customer purchases with your coupon, you are credited with that sale. The sale will then be reflected in your account. Your affiliate account will display what 15% of the total sale was (your commissions amount) and show you how much commissions you are owed per sale.
What is an EMP Shield?
The EMP Shield is electromagnetic pulse, Solar Flare, and lightning protection system designed to exceed the requirements of MIL-STD-188-125-1 for shunting over-voltage spikes.
EMP Shield™ is the World’s only tested and approved EMP protection technology for an entire electrical system.
Built to exceed military standards (MIL-STD-188-125-1), EMP Shield pulls excess electricity from the electrical system in less than 500 trillionths of a second.
EMP Shield is designed to protect an entire home from Lightning, CME (coronal mass ejection, power surges, and an EMP (electromagnetic pulse). Proven and tested at Keystone Compliance, a Federally approved Department of Defense (DOD) testing facility, Our EMP Shield was struck with over 40x EMP strikes with no impact to the device.
MIL-STD-188-125-1 requires that the over-voltage spike from the E1 spike begin shunting 5,000 Amps within 20 nanoseconds. All EMP Shield models start shunting over voltage in 500 trillionths of a second. EMP Shield also designed to continue protecting through the expected durations of the E2 and E3 spikes produced by a high-altitude electromagnetic pulse.
EMP Shield has also been tested to all other military EMP Standards. Our devices are also UL 1449 compliant and have been tested at Intertek. See below for all military certified testing.
How Does EMP Shield Work?
The EMP Shield can see and protect all the electronics and equipment connected to your electrical system.
This is accomplished by shunting (shorting) the over voltage coming in from the Grid and the voltage surges that are collected within your home.
Whether the electrons are collected within your home or are attempting to come into your electrical system from outside the home (the grid), the EMP Shield will see the surge and protect your electrical system. Since the shunting is completed incredibly fast (500 trillionths of a second), the over voltage is pulled away from the equipment before the voltage can rise high enough to damage any equipment. We call this new technology SightSpeed™ and it ensures no heat is generated within the electrical system which protects all electronics connect to the system.
What is an Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP)?
A nuclear EMP is defined as having 3 distinct pulses of voltage/current. The E1 pulse is caused by the gamma rays released during the nuclear reaction. The Gamma rays interact with the electrons and the nucleus of the atoms that make up the atmosphere, and this interaction results in freeing electrons from their atoms. The free electrons ionize the atmosphere (ionization results in electron flow), which can be seen as the flow of electricity through anything that acts as an antenna. All of the wires that make up our nations’ electrical grid make an excellent antenna, which will produce an over-voltage condition throughout the affected area. For an optimally positioned detonation (approximately 300 miles high and over the center of the US), the entire nation will be affected by the E1 pulse. The E1 pulse starts at the time of the detonation of the weapon and continues until 1 microsecond after the detonation.
The E-2 pulse starts at 1 microsecond and continues until approximately 1 second after the detonation. The E-2 pulse is caused by the inelastic scattering (matter bouncing off other matter) of the matter from the nuclear weapon interacting with the matter that makes up the atmosphere continuing to ionize the atmosphere.
The E-3 pulse starts at approximately 1 second after the detonation and can continue for several minutes. The E-3 pulse is caused by the nuclear detonation distorting the earth’s geomagnetic structure, and then its reconfiguration. As the magnetic lines are pushed out of configuration and then come back into normal configuration, electricity is generated, and flows through the atmosphere until it contacts an antenna (wires).
The antenna that is most affected will be the nation’s power grid, but all arrays of wiring (even in your house) will act as large or small antennas and will produce the flow of electricity and over-voltage conditions.
Does this EMP Shield device work in every country?
Will the EMP Shield work on solar power systems?
Yes. We have many solar system models all specific to your systems maximum input voltages. If you have questions about which model you will need for your solar system send us an email or give us a call: sales@empshield.net or 620-412-9978.
Is the EMP Shield hard to install?
No – We recommend you have it installed by a licensed electrician and/or used in accordance with electrical codes and regulations. However, it is very simple to install and most installations take 15 minutes or less.
Is the EMP Shield attached to my home's breaker box?
Yes, the home model attaches to your home breaker box. We have 2x models. The SP-120-240-W model mounts on the wall beside your breaker box and the SP-120-240-RL model mounts inside the breaker box with a small LED box just outside the edge of the breaker box
Can we use the EMP Shield on our boats, vehicles, or aircraft?
Return Policy
EMP Shield Offers a 14 day no questions asked return policy. After 14 days, there will be a $50 restocking fee. After 30 days there will be a $100 fee for returned items.
