Frequently Asked Questions

Question: How does GreenBackStreet make money?

Answer: First, we are dedicated to the idea of giving our members maximum value in cash! We don’t mark up prices or shipping and handling charges because no shopping takes place on our site. Our members are shopping at the actual merchant’s site.

So how do we make money? Online shoppers are a hot commodity these days so our merchant’s pay us a portion of the purchases made on their site as a result of our marketing efforts. We give our members a large portion of the money that we receive as our way of thanking them, and then we keep anything that may be left after that.

Question: How do Marketing Directors make money?

Answer: Just like we are dedicated to the idea of giving our members maximum value in cash when they shop through GreenBackStreet.com, we offer a matching portion of a member’s cash back to the sponsoring Marketing Director, Business, or Fundraiser - to infinity! Remember, this is of no extra cost to the members who are shopping.

Question: Is this Network Marketing?

Answer: Some people believe that because a representative can earn through infinity on free member referrals that this must be multi-level marketing. It’s actually an affiliate referral program. Large corporations pay us for the marketing efforts we manage that drive viable shoppers to their sites. We, in turn, pass those dollars on to our members and marketing representatives. It’s that simple! This business model resembles that of the insurance industry or a franchise opportunity.

Question: Will the groups that I market to have to relinquish control of their database?

Answer: Not at all! Although in some cases a group may prefer that we corporately market to their members on their behalf. We do this by working with our internal support team to import these members into our system.

Question: Will my group’s database be solicited to with any other products or services?

Answer: Absolutely not! We adhere to a strict anti-spamming policy and are compliant with the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003. Members only receive information from us that they have opted in to receiving.

Question: Is any information I supply sold to a third party marketer outside of GateNet or GreenBackStreet?

Answer: No; we do not sell or share any of our members’ information. It is protected with the strictest confidentiality.

Question: What are my responsibilities as a Marketing Director?
