How does the self-registration process work? 

Sponsors and Approvers can send Self Registration invitations to affiliates by clicking on the Self Registration Invitation link. The Sponsor or Approver selects the Sponsor-to-be, enters the email address of the intended new affiliate, adds a note, and clicks Submit.

The recipient of the Invitation email then follows the link and completes the Self-Registration form.

The Sponsor then confirms the information and agrees to be the Sponsor.

The Approver then approves the account, in the same way that an account created directly by a Sponsor is approved.
