Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will Century market directly to my students?
A: We understand your concern and have addressed this in the creation of Century Direct. Once your student has ordered from your website, they are associated with your account from that point forward. Meaning, if they buy once from your website, but then go to www.centuryfitness.com and order product, you will get credit for the order. If they call in and order product after buying at least one time from your website, you will get credit for the order and receive a commission check at the end of month for the difference between published wholesale and retail pricing less a 5% processing fee.

While we are taking every step possible to make sure we don't market to your customer, you can see that once your customer is associated with your distributor id, you will receive the credit for the order.

Remember, in order for that student or customer to be associated with your distributor id they must first complete a transaction on your website. Then after that, the customer is yours.

Q: How much does it cost and how do I pay for my site?
A: The cost is a one time setup fee of $100 and a monthly fee of $40. You may pay via credit card or an automatic withdrawal from your bank account. After the initial charge we will automatically debit your account every 30 days.

Q: What if I don't want to offer all the Century products on my site?
A: No problem, we allow you to deselect entire categories of products or just one product at a time. Only the items you choose will be displayed on your site.

Q: Can I discount products through my website?
A: You bet. We give you great flexibility in how you price the products you are selling on your site. You can apply a discount to an entire category of products or just one product at a time.
