Online Reseller Policy

ZIPFIZZ CORPORATION 
AUTHORIZED ONLINE SELLER POLICY
EFFECTIVE FEBRUARY 25, 2025

Zipfizz is committed to working with customers to facilitate the sale of Zipfizz products through ecommerce channels. Zipfizz maintains an eCommerce Authorized Reseller Policy to protect the Zipfizz brand and intellectual property, as well as authorized channel partners. This policy is also in place to protect end customers, ensuring they receive accurate product information, pricing and customer service that meets Zipfizz standards. Finally, the policy works to ensure fair competition among resellers as well as supporting those who have invested in stocking and marketing Zipfizz products and who abide by Zipfizz policies and programs. Zipfizz will interpret and enforce this policy at its sole discretion. In order to be considered an eCommerce Authorized Reseller (“Reseller”), you must meet the following requirements:

Sell on Approved Websites Only

  • Unless otherwise explicitly authorized in writing by the VP of Marketing, Sr. VP Corporate Development, or Executive Vice President, subsequent to the effective date of this policy, Resellers may only take orders via websites owned and operated by their own company. Selling on third party marketplaces (e.g., Amazon, eBay, Walmart, etc.), drop- ship accounts (e.g., Buy.com, Jet.com, Newegg, etc.) or classified sites (e.g., Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, etc.) is strictly prohibited.

Maintain Accurate Brand & Product Information

  • Maintain proper use of all Zipfizz trademarks.
  • Sell product only in original packaging.
  • Do not duplicate, or develop different, UPCs to differentiate a product.

Online Marketing

  • If a Reseller wishes to participate in the marketing of Zipfizz brand and product through a Google Adwords Account, the reseller must submit a request to Zipfizz for a list of approved ad keywords to use as to not to compete directly with Zipfizz’s primary marketing efforts.  

Sell Only to End Users

  • Only distributors purchasing products directly from Zipfizz are authorized to resell products to Resellers in accordance with this policy.
  • Resellers should not sell Zipfizz products to other eCommerce resellers. Zipfizz recognizes that sales to eCommerce resellers may inadvertently occur from time to time. Therefore, in the event you inadvertently transact with other ecommerce resellers, you must disclose the details of those transactions (e.g., when and to whom such products were sold) so that Zipfizz may enforce this policy.
  • Sellers transacting Zipfizz products through eCommerce that did not procure product from Zipfizz, or an authorized distributor of Zipfizz, directly, are not authorized to sell Zipfizz products online or use Zipfizz trademarks, copyrights, images or product information. Zipfizz reserves the right to take enforcement action against the seller and supplier of the product in accordance with this policy.

Unauthorized Exports or Marketing in Other Countries 

  • You shall cooperate with Zipfizz in preventing unauthorized exportation of the Products. You shall not advertise for sale or ship Products outside of the U.S. or sell Products to any third party that advertises for sale or ships the Products outside of the U.S., in each case without the prior written consent of Zipfizz. 

Bulk Sales by Resellers 

  • The Products may not be sold in bulk by Resellers. “Bulk” is defined as more than (3) cases in a single transaction. Resellers shall use reasonable efforts to identify suspicious purchase patterns (e.g., frequent purchases by an individual) and promptly report the same to Zipfizz. 

Customer Confusion 

  • You may not advertise, market, promote, display, demonstrate, bundle or sell non-Zipfizz products in a manner that would create the impression that the non-Zipfizz products are made by, endorsed by, work with or are associated with Zipfizz Corporation or the Products. You must ensure that the Products never are misbranded or represented as another brand. 

Disclose All Seller Names & Properties

  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date company information and disclose all retail locations, web properties, temporary storefronts and seller names across all channels directly to Zipfizz. Any seller transacting through eCommerce must report all websites and seller names advertising or transacting Zipfizz products to info@zipfizz.com.

Zipfizz Minimum Advertised Price Policy

  • All Resellers acknowledge they’ve received Zipfizz MAP policy from an authorized Zipfizz distributor or Zipfizz company.  If MAP policy is violated, Reseller status will be revoked immediately. 

Legal Compliance

Resellers acknowledge that they will comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations related to advertising, sale and marketing of Zipfizz products, including but not limited to:

  • Don't make false or misleading claims or engage in deceptive sales tactics.
  • If you email customers, comply with CAN-SPAM (and other similar laws).
  • If you maintain an online presence, publish a privacy policy and comply with it.
  • Use known and trusted checkout vendors only and ensure that credit card
    transactions flow through a PCI-compliant payment stack (i.e., one in which credit card numbers are not collected by the merchant).

Enforcement

Resellers that fail to comply with any term in this policy will be subject to enforcement actions at Zipfizz discretion including but not limited to:

  • Loss of authorization to sell Zipfizz products online
  • Reseller will be given a reasonable amount of time to sell through inventory on hand if loss of authorization occurs
  • Suspension of shipments
