So that's certainly not where I would start.

May find some info here.
"Free Store Club" scam - Google Search

I'm not saying at all it's a scam, I don't know anything about it.
It's just that a good way to research opportunities is name + scam or name+problems.
Not that I like to disagree with people - however I would like to throw my .02 in here - looking for name+scam usually pulls up affiliates reviews of the product as they try to sell it to you with negative buzz marketing "I think x is a scam, click here to find out << aff link" - I see my affiliates do it all the time. It does depend on the niche - but keep an eye out for those that use 'scam' and 'problems' as nothing more than buzz to clicks...

If I were a newbie again and really interested in the program - I would get in touch with the vendor directly, perhaps see if I can speak to an affiliate or two, and test the whole system to make sure there are no leaks or sneaky tactics. It all comes down to enjoying what you promote and working with reputable people that endorse positive communication and business practices... If you like the products, the payout, the brand - then do your diligence and if it's clean - give it a go!

Best of luck to you with it.
NC.
