GWI's Marketing Partner Program

As a Marketing Partner you will receive a FREE 200-hour Business Plus Internet access account with GWI and up to six (6) mailboxes total. (NOTE: Any hours in addition to the first 200 will be billed at the rate of $0.25 per hour.) The Business Plus account allows for multiple simultaneous logins by the user and is intended for use in demonstrating the Internet and GWI's services. We also anticipate you will use this account to keep yourself up-to-date with the current services that GWI offers.

GWI Marketing Partners are also expected to do the following:

Provide support for primary installation and configuration of Internet software for GWI customers. This essentially involves helping the customer set up Internet access on his or her computer.
Provide service and contact information about GWI to inquiring customers.
Display a GWI logo and link on your website (if applicable) to advertise GWI Internet access. Please see logo and instructions page for detailed rules and logo specs.
