CarSponsors.com Sponsorships – Sponsorships may be in the form of full sponsorships, partial sponsorships, in-house sponsorships, perks, and coupons. Please note that certain costs and promotional efforts may be associated with your sponsorships. If you receive a full sponsorship, you will not be required to pay any costs other than your time spent promoting your sponsor's products or services. Full sponsorships may require you to promote sponsors' products or services on the internet prior to the release of those products. If you receive a partial sponsorship, you will not be required to promote the sponsor in any way. However, if you wish to take advantage of the discounted part, you will need to pay for the discounted part yourself. In some cases, if you ask us to obtain a sponsored part, we may ask that you put down a deposit on that part before we contact the sponsor to obtain your final sponsored price. This is to ensure that you are committed to buying that part before we invest our resources in negotiating with the sponsor. Please note that we may not manually review every application, as we strive to streamline our application and sponsorship process. However, we do provide every applicant with the opportunity to be sponsored. By submitting an application for sponsorship, you acknowledge and agree to these terms and conditions.
CarSponsors.com In-House Sponsorships – We offer in-house cash sponsorships via our Sponsor Rep program, cash-back sponsorships for product installs, partial and full sponsorships, and sponsorship vouchers in addition to our sponsors sponsorships. CarSponsors.com in-house sponsorships may require you to promote and/or sell CarSponsors.com services, products or special promotions prior to receiving your cash and/or products. Cash sponsorships are equivalent to earning referral fees. This is accomplished by signing up at no cost to be a Sponsor Rep. When you refer a person who becomes a paid CarSponsors.com Member, you will be paid a referral fee.
Sponsor Reps earn high commissions (50/100%) for everyone they refer to CarSponsors.com.

The 100% option is capped at $3,000 in free products per calendar year. Our referral fee percentage/payout can change at any time. All cash payouts are paid via PayPal only and only when they are requested by you, we do not send notices. You can visit your earnings by logging into your dashboard and clicking on the Sponsor Rep link. You must be an active CS Member to receive your earned cash/products. Sponsorship accounts that have expired for more than 90 days will lose their earned cash/products. You will need to successfully complete all sponsorship guidelines as set forth by Carsponsors.com before receiving your sponsored products or cash. Sponsor Reps are not allowed to advertise on Google Adwords, Facebook or other search engines as the Official CarSponsors.com Site.

Sponsorship Vouchers may be provided to some members as a means of encouraging companies to sponsor them. If your application is approved and includes sponsorship vouchers, you may offer them to automotive companies in exchange for free or discounted parts and services. These vouchers typically have a value assigned to them, which represents an advertising value and not a cash value. Sponsorship vouchers are an effective means of securing sponsorships, as they offer companies free advertising on CarSponsors.com in exchange for providing you with a sponsored product. As long as the company agrees to the trade, you will receive the sponsored part and they will receive free advertising up to the value of the voucher. Please note that we cannot guarantee that companies will accept sponsorship vouchers, and they have no monetary value. Additionally, sponsorship vouchers will expire when your membership expires. By accepting sponsorship vouchers, you acknowledge and agree that they have no cash value, and that they are intended solely for use in securing sponsorships through CarSponsors.com.
