9. Click & Lease Order Processing Form

In 2017, the NAA Click & Lease Program will operate two pricing systems for our users: click-based orders and unit-based orders. Properties will order clicks for their usage until their 2017 Blue Moon site license annual renewal date. Upon reaching their annual site license renewal date, the member property will be converted to the new pricing system and pay an annual invoice based on per-unit pricing.

NAA will process click orders originating within your chartered territory. In consideration of this service, you agree to pay NAA a per transaction processing fee of $10.00 per click order. You agree that the net amount of your monthly Click & Lease program revenue share will reflect the deduction of these transaction processing fees. This accounting from NAA will be issued the third Friday of the following month. The monthly report will be sent from NAA and your affiliate revenue share will be processed on the same day through our payment system.

NAA will process Click & Lease unit-based orders originating within your chartered territory. There is no transaction charge to you for fulfillment of unit-based orders. This transaction fee will be collected directly from the member property. NAA will issue Click & Lease program accounting statements showing your revenue share by the third Friday of the following month. Revenue share payments will be processed on the same day through NAA’s payment system.
