| WSO Marketplace Rules (2024 Revision) Introduction Welcome to the Warrior Special Offers, a marketplace for high-quality Internet Marketing products. Reporting offers and posts Buyers and sellers can report any posts and offers within the WSO section for mods and admin to investigate. This can be done with the red exclamation point () on the lower left side of each post. Accepted payment system We accept Warrior Payments, JVZoo, eJunkie, and PayPal as payment methods. We do not support nor accept WarriorPlus as a payment system. Seller Rules Compliance with laws All WSOs must comply with the forum rules, Australian laws, as well as the laws of your local jurisdiction. Sellers are required to comply with all legal requirements for advertising, both under the laws of Australia and the country of your residence. Legal compliance is strictly your responsibility as seller of the product. We reserve the right to reject/delete offers that violate legal requirements. WSO approval policy The following products are not permitted to be sold as WSO:
PLR products are allowed under the Warrior Classifieds section. Otherwise, if your WSO is any of the above, your offer will not be approved and your payment fee will not be refunded full stop. WSOs should have an WSO-exclusive pricing. The moderation team reserves the right to reject any non-complying offers. Sellers are free to revise their paid listings any time. Moderation and approval time All threads are moderated within 24-72 hours, but may take longer on a longer holiday. If your submission hasn’t been approved within the prescribed turnaround time, please contact Warrior Forum support at cx.freelancer.com/new-ticket. Please indicate your Warrior Forum username, and the link to your thread. If your thread is approved, you will receive a private message from the admin advising that your thread has been approved for publishing, and with further instructions on how to post your offer. If your thread is not approved, you will be notified of the reason why. Admins will also advise you on the next steps, and you are also encouraged to review the WSO rules and align your offer with these rules. Once done, you may submit your revised listing. Admin reserves the right to move unmoderated WSOs to a different section of the Warrior Forum Marketplace. WSO validity WSOs and marketplace threads are valid for only 12 months, after which they cannot be bumped. This applies to threads retroactively as well, i.e. threads that have been posted in 2018 will be closed. Warrior Special Offers will be closed and moved to the Legacy WSO section. Any bumped threads which have been running for more than 12 months will not be issued a refund, and members will have to create and pay for a new thread. We do this to keep the marketplace section fresh and updated with new offers and content. Members are not allowed to keep existing comments from the older thread. However, members can include good reviews and testimonials as part of their sales copy, or as a second post in the thread. Seller support Sellers are required to give customers a reliable, common way for buyers to make contact that will not depend on the forum. This can include a support email address, support helpdesk, etc. Your contact information should be clearly placed within the first or second post of your offer. Sellers are also required to set expectations in terms of what support is offered for the WSO. Scarcity Members are allowed to sell scarce or limited-offer products, e.g. products limited to just 100 registrants, etc. Titles The title of a WSO should upfront describe what a WSO is. Titles should describe what a WSO is about, and should describe what people are buying. Income claims in titles are not allowed. Non-alphanumeric characters, HTML, and ASCII characters are not allowed in WSO titles. Emojis can be used, however they are limited to a maximum of 4 emojis. Moreover, members are not allowed to use FULL CAPS across titles, nor are overuse of exclamation points. Examples of good titles:Paid testimonials and bonuses in exchange for reviews Sellers are prohibited from using testimonials from anyone who has or will receive payment, commission, incentive, or advantages for their review. All WSO testimonials must be unsolicited. Sellers are prohibited from offering payments, commissions, incentives, or advantages in exchange for reviews. Off-site reviews Sellers are not allowed to link off-site reviews or review videos from within a WSO thread. Screenshot reviews, however, are allowed. Selling email lists and leads Sellers are strictly prohibited from selling, trading, or giving out email addresses of their WSO customers. Any personal identifiable information held by sellers must be kept confidential. Spamming and unsolicited bulk mail Sellers are not allowed to sell any products that endorses, enables, or facilitates sending of unsolicited bulk messages via email, private messaging systems, SMS, or other channels meant for one-to-one communication. Sellers are not allowed to use the Warrior Forum private messaging system to endorse or solicit their WSO to other members. Significantly similar offers Sellers are not allowed to have more than two (2) significantly similar offers in any section of the forum. If any existing offers are found to be similar, sellers will be required to explain product uniqueness to moderators before the offer is approved. Buy buttons Sellers are required to have a buy or CTA button that will take a user to the checkout or opt-in page. Checkout links that lead users to a landing page are not allowed. If a seller is offering free services (e.g. consultation, free webinar, etc), provide a direct opt-in page for your buyer. You might also need to state the price of your intended sell-up price, and admins have the right to review as needed. Checkout links should look distinct, clear, and easy to see. Payment process Sellers are required to have a proper payment gateway: Warrior Payments, JVZoo, PayPal, Stripe, Clickbank, eJunkie, Paykickstart, etc. Other payment processors not mentioned will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Warrior Plus is not accepted on the platform. Refunds All listing and bump fees are final. If a seller fails to comply with any of the rules, no refunds for any payments made to Warrior Forum will be offered. Income claims and guarantees Sellers are not allowed to make upfront income guarantees, or imply that income will result from purchasing a WSO. Any WSOs with income claims will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Example of allowed income claims:Etiquette and decorum Sellers and members are not allowed to harass, ad hominem attack, blackmail, spam, or bully other buyers, sellers, or Warrior Forum members. Blind ads Sellers are not allowed to post blind ads. Offers should not be misleading, and should be clearly understood by both moderators and members. Solo ads offers Solo ads offers are only allowed on the Classifieds section. Seller refund guarantees Sellers are not required to offer refund or money-back guarantees for their WSOs. However, if such guarantees are offered, this should be explicitly stated and clearly explained in the first or second post of the WSO. Offers on the first page Sellers are only allowed to have 3 threads on the first page of the WSO Marketplace and applicable subforums. Members are allowed up to six (6) threads if three of these are stickied threads, however, this is rare and will be reviewed by admin on a case-by-case basis. Sticky threads Members can have a maximum of three (3) sticky threads on the first page of the WSO Marketplace and applicable subforums. Warrior Forum trademark Sellers are not permitted to use the Warrior Forum logo, branding, name or otherwise in their sales copy. The name of your product should imply that the product is affiliated with the Warrior Forum in any way. MLM and affiliate products Affiliate products and products that are part of an MLM scheme are not allowed in the WSO section. Sellers may post such offers on the Classifieds section.

WSO rules for buyers Review copies and offering reviews Users are not allowed to ask for review copies or offer review copies in their WSO. Reporting fraudulent or misleading offers If a seller fails to deliver the product or service as advertised, doesn’t honour a posted refund policy, or something similar, please report the problem using the Report icon () and our team will investigate. Ensure that your report contains all the important details, such as:
Such details will be kept confidential. Investigating claims will also take time, and multiple reports will not “expedite” investigations. Our team will make sure reports are promptly acted on. The forum has no power to force a refund between buyers and sellers. We are only limited to reducing or removing access by parties we believe might be acting improperly, or those who violate the forum and/or WSO rules as prescribed in the forum. Issue resolution Buyers should always resolve any issue with sellers privately so the latter may have the opportunity to explain themselves. Should the issue remain unresolved, buyers may report the problem for admin to investigate. Reviewing a WSO Buyers are allowed to post one (1) honest review for any WSO they have purchased. Such reviews must be factual and not misleading in any way. If the product was sold via Warrior Payments, buyers can review the product from both within Warrior Payments and on the seller’s thread. Product review guidelines The following are review guidelines for buyers:
Refunds Buyers are not automatically entitled to a refund IF they are unhappy with the product or service. If a seller prescribes a refund period as part of their offer, this should be explicitly stated in the sales page or FAQ of the offer. If there are no mentions of any such policies, it is assumed that all sales are final and no refunds offered. Buyers may request a refund from the seller provided this will be done by contacting the seller privately either through private message or via the seller’s external support channel. File sharing Buyers are prohibited from sharing, reproducing, or selling the product they purchased on the WSO marketplace without the seller’s explicit consent. |
