Reseller/Affiliate Program Overview

Header

Well established for over a decade now, Monumark is the simplest, most reliable, time-tested, and affordable QR-code/tag on the market.

Pricing

The wholesale price of Monumark is $49, and the suggested retail price $79. That’s a 60% markup and $30 profit when sold as-is, without any additional services (see below).

Simple Sales

Each Monumark envelope has everything the customer needs to be self sufficient in elegant packaging: the tag, instructions for activation and attaching the tag to the monument, and a alcohol prep pad. So you can simply sell it as-is (or, attach it for the customer as an additional service; see below).

Customer Support

If a customer has any any issues, they can (and are encouraged to) reach out to Monumark directly via our website or support@monumark.com.

Sales Tools

We’ve got a simple, elegant sales display you can put wherever works best, as well as compelling promotional materials and signage.

Add’l Services & Revenue

You can offer Monumark as-is and let the customer be self-sufficient. Or, offer additional services for a stronger customer relationship and additional revenue. It's really up to you. For example:

  • Attach for customer: Offer to attach the tag for the customer when the monument is manufactured, which allows for superior adhesion to the surface when its cleaned and at a moderate temperature (est. $50 revenue).

  • Provide final GPS coordinates: Take note of where the monument is set, then send the exact GPS coordinate to the customer so they can add them to the Monumark Page. (est. $75 revenue).

  • Recess/Flush mount: Sandblast a small area for the tag to be inset in the monument. Ask us about methods of ensuring tag adhesion to the subsurface (est. $95 revenue).

  • Laser etching: You can etch the design of the tag into the monument instead of attaching the tag. It’s a nice look, with a tradeoff in terms of durability. We can provide the digital file (est. $45 revenue).

Tag & Page Features

Monumark is inspired by the monuments themselves: designed to be simple, beautiful and long-lasting. It’s no small thing to have one of our tags attached to your work. It’s a responsibility we take very seriously. Here’s all about the Monumark tag and the Monumark page it connects to.

What’s the overall customer experience like? Walk me through it.

Whether sold as a reseller or an affiliate, each Monumark comes in an elegant and professionally designed envelope that has everything the customer needs to be self sufficient. So, when purchased, you can simply hand them the envelope.

Once they have that envelope in-hand, they can take it from there:

  1. Scan the tag.
  2. Enter basic information like name and date of birth/death.
  3. Get an email with a special "Edit Link".
  4. Click that link any time to edit the Monumark page.

They can edit it any time. If a customer does have any issues, they can (and are encouraged to) reach out to Monumark directly via our website or support@monumark.com.

Or, you can setup the tag for the customer initially, using information they send to you. When you're ready, send us an email and we can transfer ownership of the tag from you to the customer.

Can more than one person be on a single Monumark?

Yes. Up to 6 individuals can have their stories and photos on a single Monumark tag. We may raise this in the future.

Is there a legacy/caretaker feature to pass on editing access to someone else?

The admin/editor of a Monumark can share the link with anyone else, giving them access, so it could be handled along with other records/accounts that get passed on after the death of the admin/editor. We're looking into ways to make this feature more integrated.

What is the tag made of, and how thick is it? Will it last?

From much R&D and 12 years real-world experience, Monumark tags are designed to outlast other materials (stainless steel, titanium, ceramic, porcelain, and even laser-etched granite) and other manufacturing methods (printing, painting, staining, annealing, etching, or engraving in metal) when it comes to longevity and readability of the tag/QR code.

That is because the hardness (impact strength) of the metal is not the main concern. Rather, the main concerns are adhesion, oxidation, and UV light exposure (fatigue, corrosion, fading, etc).

Monumark tags share a highly specialized manufacturing method with harsh agricultural, industrial, military and aerospace applications. Aluminum allows for embedding the QR code into the material itself, actually below a layer of aluminum oxide, and protected from oxidation and UV light. Lab testing included abrasion resistance, chemical resistance, temperature resistance, and exposure to UV and other weatherometer testing (equivalent to 20 years outdoor exposure). Tags we placed over a decade ago are still working well.

Don't let its small size fool you. These little tags have been vigorously researched and real-world tested to outlast even larger, thicker, more expensive alternatives.

Finally, when it comes to longevity, remember that the company that hosts the QR code content/page is just as important as the tag itself: a tag without content is worse than no tag at all. Over the last 10-12 years ago, we've seen a lot of companies come and go, leaving their QR codes nonfunctional. Monumark was initially founded by funeral and monument providers and we consider our business to be a long-term commitment. We're glad to have provided service for over 12 years and look forward to providing services for many more.

What are the features and storage/hosting limits of a Monumark page?

We've based our limits based on user behavior/requests, so most users will have plenty of storage. But here are the technical specs:

  • Up to 6 people can be added to a single Monumark.
  • Use the default Monumark page or link to any other URL instead.
  • GPS: Record and show the memorial location.
  • Guestbook: Let others show they visited.
  • Memories and messages from other users can be posted (or disabled).
  • Photo Gallery: Up to 200 photos
  • Memorial Location Gallery: Up to 15 photos
  • Embedded Videos: Up to 3 videos (hosted on YouTube, Vimeo, or other .mp4 hosting service)
  • Related Links: Up to 5 links to other URLs
  • Life Story: Up to 16,000 characters
  • Obituary: Up to 6,000 characters
How is video/audio hosting handled? Can users upload short clips?

Videos and audio files are currently handled via the "Videos" and "Related Links" features, as you can see on this Monumark Page. That is, users can upload videos to third parties such as YouTube and link to them there. We don't currently host video or audio files, though it is something we may add in the near future to make things more seamless for users who aren't used to using third-party video services.
