The Mars-Cart Platform
Mars-Cart provides technology and services intended to support digital commerce, including tools that may enable vendors to manage offers, affiliates to promote eligible offers, customers to complete transactions, and users to review performance information.
Features may include checkout technology, product and offer management, marketplace functionality, affiliate tracking, analytics, reporting, payout-related information, integrations, customer management, and other tools introduced or modified from time to time.
Availability of a particular feature does not guarantee that the feature will be available in every country, for every product category, or for every user.

- Vendors must have the legal right to sell and market all products and services they make available through Mars-Cart.
- Product descriptions, pricing, claims, guarantees, disclosures, and sales materials must be accurate and not misleading.

- Vendors must not manipulate transactions, affiliate tracking, refunds, chargebacks, commissions, or performance data.

- Affiliates are responsible for compliance with the rules of advertising networks, email providers, social networks, search engines, and other channels they use.
Affiliate approval for one offer does not guarantee approval for other offers. Vendors and Mars-Cart may impose eligibility requirements or promotional restrictions for particular offers.
Customers and Transactions
Customers are responsible for providing accurate information when placing an order and for reviewing product descriptions, pricing, subscription terms, refund terms, and other disclosures presented before purchase.
A transaction may be declined, delayed, reviewed, reversed, refunded, or otherwise restricted when reasonably necessary to address fraud, payment risk, legal requirements, sanctions, regulatory obligations, product restrictions, technical issues, or suspected violations of these Terms.
Product-specific rights and obligations may differ depending on the vendor, product type, customer location, applicable law, and terms disclosed at checkout.
Payments, Fees and Payouts
Use of certain Mars-Cart services may be subject to platform fees, transaction fees, payment processing fees, subscription fees, affiliate commissions, reserves, deductions, taxes, currency conversion costs, or other charges disclosed through the applicable account, agreement, pricing schedule, checkout, or service documentation.
Payment timing and payout availability may depend on transaction status, refund periods, chargeback risk, payment provider requirements, compliance review, reserve requirements, customer disputes, and other operational factors.
Mars-Cart may withhold, delay, offset, or adjust amounts where reasonably necessary to address refunds, reversals, disputes, chargebacks, suspected fraud, negative balances, contractual obligations, legal requirements, or amounts otherwise owed.
Before publication, Mars-Cart should insert the actual fee schedule, settlement timing, minimum payout requirements, reserve policy, supported currencies, payment provider arrangements, and tax treatment applicable to its business model.
Refunds, Cancellations and Chargebacks
Refund, return, cancellation, and withdrawal rights may vary depending on the product, vendor, transaction type, customer location, applicable law, and policy displayed at the time of purchase.
Customers should review the refund or cancellation terms associated with a product before completing a purchase. Where applicable law provides mandatory refund, withdrawal, or cancellation rights, those rights will apply notwithstanding inconsistent contractual language.
Vendors and affiliates acknowledge that refunds, reversals, cancellations, and chargebacks may affect sales proceeds, commissions, balances, reserves, and payouts.
Fraudulent, abusive, or excessive refund or chargeback activity may result in investigation, restriction, reserve requirements, suspension, or termination.
