- 6.3 The Affiliate acknowledges and agrees that payment of Commissions may be delayed where the Affiliate has not provided Torazzo with current particulars in accordance with paragraph 10.2 (xiii) of this Agreement and that in no case will Torazzo be liable to the Affiliate for any loss, costs or expenses directly or indirectly incurred by the Affiliate as the result of such delay.
- 6.4 Minimum amount that can be paid to the Affiliate in a given billing period must exceed $500.00 (five hundred US dollars) for Regular Affiliate Account holders and $100.00 (one hundred US dollars) for Smartlink Only account holders, regardless of the selected payment currency. Payment in the amount less than the respective threshold, but not less than $100.00 (one hundred US dollars), is possible in case of termination of the Agreement mutually agreed by the parties or its cancelation that is not related to any breach of contractual provisions or applicable laws by the Affiliate, or upon individual agreement between the parties.

7. Fraud
- 7.1 If Torazzo determines, in its sole discretion, that the Affiliate or Sub-Affiliate has engaged in any activity that Torazzo considers to be fraudulent or which might bring the reputation or standing of Torazzo into disrepute either with the general public or with the Clients or potential Clients of Torazzo, or otherwise that the Affiliate or Sub-Affiliate has engaged in activities which might be considered fraudulent or in case the Affiliate violates any given Offer's promotion restrictions, Torazzo may but will not be obligated to: (i) suspend or terminate the Affiliate’s membership in the Program, without notice and (ii) release to a regulatory body or any governmental authority, information relating to the identity and location of the Affiliate if required to do so in order to comply with existing legislation.
- 7.2 Torazzo may but will not be obliged to provide proof of fraudulent activity to the Affiliate, and proof of any share of traffic being fraudulent is reason enough to forfeit the whole commission that is due to the Affiliate. If an Affiliate feels Torazzo's judgement in determining illegitimacy of its traffic to be wrong, the Affiliate shall provide proof of the opposite by sharing access to its traffic source/tracker, providing creative material used for promotion of the given campaign or any other evidence that the Affiliate hasn't been engaged in fraudulent activities. If the Affiliate fails to provide satisfactory or any kind of such proof within 7 (seven) days of its payment being put on hold, Torazzo reserves the right to terminate its Affiliate Account and cancel payment of the applicable commissions, at its sole discretion and without any further obligations to the Affiliate.
- 7.3 In the event of suspension or termination in accordance with paragraph 9.1 above, any Commission due and payable to the Affiliate in accordance with Section 6 at the time of suspension or termination will be deemed to be forfeited.
