No. Your church does not purchase inventory or pay an upfront fee to participate in the Covered Gift Shop Partnership™. Covered™ provides the display materials, product samples, ordering materials, and fulfillment.
Each partnership runs for one quarter, matching the current Covered™ catalog cycle. A new catalog is released each quarter.
Your church may renew for the next quarter and receive the next Covered™ catalog, or choose to end the partnership. There is no requirement to continue from quarter to quarter.
Yes. If your church chooses not to renew for the next quarter, you may apply to participate again with a future Covered™ catalog.
Your church provides one 6-foot table, one black tablecloth, an appropriate display area, and an introduction of the Covered™ Gift Shop to your congregation. Covered™ handles the rest.
No. The display uses Covered™ product samples. Your church does not purchase, stock, produce, package, or manage product inventory.
Orders are collected throughout the month. During the last week of each month, Covered™ schedules a specific date and time with your church to pick up the completed orders and payments for processing.
Completed orders are produced, packaged, quality checked, and delivered back to your church within approximately 21 business days after the monthly order pickup.
Your church receives 35% of qualifying Covered™ Gift Shop sales. Your church’s payment is issued by bank check and delivered with the completed monthly orders, within the same approximately 21-business-day fulfillment period.
Churches reaching $5,000+ in qualifying sales during the quarter earn an additional 5% quarterly bonus. The bonus is calculated at the end of the quarter and included with the church’s final partnership payment for that catalog cycle.
