Distributorship Terms

Distributor Requirements
You must be at least 18 years of age and reside in the United States or a US territory. You must provide Shaklee with a valid Social Security Number (SSN) or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) issued in your own name. The application and the SSN or ITIN may be provided online or by phone, fax, or mail. If provided online or by phone, Shaklee must receive the application, including the SSN or ITIN, by fax, mail, or scan and email within 30 days. To join Shaklee with an ITIN, you must attach a copy of your IRS Form CP-565 (Assignment of Individual Taxpayer Identification Number). Spouses may not have separate distributorships. Please notify Shaklee of any change in your street or email address or telephone number. Acceptance of this application by Shaklee allows you to purchase and sell Shaklee products and earn bonuses.

The Statement of Privileges and Responsibilities of Shaklee Family Members (P & R)
The P&R, as amended from time to time, is incorporated in this agreement. It is the official document governing the relationship between Shaklee Family Members and Shaklee U.S., LLC. You can read the P&R, including the Mutual Agreement to Arbitrate Claims, here. Please review it carefully with your Sponsor or Business Leader. Because it sets the foundation for how we do business, if a Shaklee Distributor does not follow the P&R, he or she may be subject to remedies for breach of contract, including termination of his or her distributorship.

ID Number
You will be issued a unique Shaklee ID number that should be used for all communications with Shaklee.

Distributors May Sponsor Others and Earn Bonuses
You may sponsor others and have sponsorship rights with respect to their downlines, as described in the P&R. You understand your name and contact information will be shared with Shaklee Distributors and Business Leaders who are part of your direct sponsorship lineage and on whose commission statement you appear.

Distributing Products
Because Shaklee is committed to the direct-selling business model, Shaklee Distributors may not distribute Shaklee products directly or indirectly to or from retail stores or internet auction sites. They also may not distribute products to Members or Distributors outside their Personal Group.

You Can Build a Business
Shaklee publishes an authorized Compensation Plan, which outlines the benefits and requirements of a Shaklee Business. Information on how to build a Shaklee Business is available from your Sponsor and/or Business Leader.
