Arhaus Trade Program Terms & Conditions
Membership in the Arhaus Trade Program (“ATP”) is contingent upon receipt of a completed application and approved credentials, which include a copy of a completed IRS W-9 listing your Federal Tax Identification Number (EIN or Social Security Number). The ATP is intended for design and real estate professionals. Continued membership in the ATP is contingent upon remaining a licensed business. Approved members will receive an email within 2 business days, confirming membership and benefits. No company-wide or group memberships will be granted. If you have your own employees, each designer on your staff must individually apply for membership to the ATP to receive individual commission.
Membership is a privilege and is not transferable. The membership may only be used at a participating Arhaus store for purchases for you as the member or by your clients-and only if the membership is current at time of purchase. Membership is not valid for gift card purchases.
Misuse of your membership will result in membership termination. "Misuse" includes, without limitation: unauthorized use of Arhaus trademarks or proprietary information; false or disparaging representations concerning Arhaus products, services, or employees; transfer of membership; allowing others to use your membership ID number; and submitting false, expired, or misleading information in connection with a membership application or client referral.
You can earn 7% commission on annual delivered sales volume of up to $49,999.00, and 10% commission on annual delivered sales volume over $50,000.00. The ATP program year runs from January-December, and resets annually. Commission checks are paid four times per year and are based on delivered sales for each quarter. Commissions shall not be due unless and until the merchandise purchased has been delivered, accepted, and paid for by the referred client. The ATP does not apply toward purchases made at the loft clearance locations.
Commission payments are made on delivered sales as follows: delivered sales from January 1 - March 31 are paid by the end of April; delivered sales from April 1 - June 30 are paid by the end of July; delivered sales from July 1 - September 30 are paid by the end of October; and delivered sales from October 1 - December 31 are paid by the end of January the following year. Any returns, exchanges or price adjustments processed after commissions have been paid will be deducted from the following quarter’s commissions. If required signed sales documentation is not presented within 90 days from the end of a quarter, commissions will be forfeited. Commissions will be paid via check and sent to the address provided in your application unless you provide an updated address. You will receive an IRS 1099 annually, for any earnings received during a membership year.
If an order has been placed before an ID number has been assigned to you, it will only be added to your sales if the order was placed within 30 days of your application, and the order is unscheduled. It is your responsibility to ensure the Design Consultant is aware of your trade membership. If your client does not notify their Design Consultant that you are a trade member, your ID may not be entered. It is your responsibility to alert a Design Consultant if a client is coming in without you. Your client need not be present to make a purchase, but you will be required to sign all necessary sale documentation.
If you request a tax exemption, you must provide Arhaus with a resale certificate for each state where items are being delivered. A resale certificate must be provided with each order.
