Affiliate Program Terms & Incentive Conditions

Last updated: January 8th, 2026

These Affiliate Program Terms (“Terms”) govern participation in the affiliate and referral programs operated by [Your Company Name] (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By participating in our affiliate program, receiving a referral link or code, or attempting to earn any incentive, you (“Affiliate,” “you”) agree to be bound by these Terms.


1. Affiliate Relationship

Affiliates are independent contractors and not employees, partners, or agents of the Company. Participation in the affiliate program does not create any employment, partnership, joint venture, or agency relationship.


2. Referral Links & Codes

Affiliates may receive unique referral links or referral codes that track qualifying purchases made through their referrals. Affiliates may choose whether and how to share their referral links or codes, subject to these Terms and all applicable laws.


3. Eligible Promotional Methods

Affiliates may promote referral links or codes through lawful means, including personal websites, social media, email, or direct communications, provided that all outreach complies with applicable laws, including but not limited to:

  • The CAN-SPAM Act

  • The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA)

  • FTC endorsement and advertising guidelines

Prohibited methods include:

  • Spam or unsolicited commercial messages

  • Purchased, rented, or scraped contact lists

  • Misleading, deceptive, or false claims

  • Impersonation or misrepresentation of the Company

The Company reserves the right to disqualify referrals or terminate affiliate participation for violations.


4. Disclosure Requirement (FTC Compliance)

Affiliates must clearly disclose their financial relationship with the Company when promoting referral links or codes.

Acceptable disclosures include, but are not limited to:

  • “I earn a commission if you purchase”

  • “Referral link — I may receive compensation”

  • “Sponsored / affiliate link”

Disclosures must be clear, conspicuous, and proximate to the referral link or promotion.


5. Incentive Campaigns (General)

From time to time, the Company may offer limited-time affiliate incentive campaigns, including but not limited to:

  • Cash bonuses

  • Store credit bonuses

  • Performance-based rewards

Each incentive campaign is separate, may have different terms, and applies only as described in the applicable announcement.

Unless otherwise stated:

  • Incentives are awarded to the first verified qualifying referral occurring after the incentive announcement

  • Each incentive is limited to one winner

  • Incentives are not guaranteed

  • Company determinations regarding eligibility and verification are final


6. Qualified Referral Sales

A “Qualified Referral Sale” is a completed customer purchase that:

  • Is made using the Affiliate’s valid referral link or code

  • Is successfully processed and not refunded, reversed, or canceled

  • Complies with all Company policies and fraud-prevention measures

The Company reserves the right to disqualify referrals resulting from abuse, fraud, or prohibited promotional methods.


7. Cash Incentives

Certain incentive campaigns may offer cash payments.

Cash incentive conditions:

  • Cash incentives of $600 USD or more require completion of IRS Form W-9 prior to payout

  • The Company will issue all required tax reporting forms, including Form 1099-NEC, where applicable

  • Taxes are the sole responsibility of the recipient

  • Failure to provide required tax documentation may delay or void payout

Cash incentives are paid only after verification and compliance review.

Taxes. Affiliates are solely responsible for any and all federal, state, local, or other taxes arising from or related to any cash incentives, bonuses, commissions, or other compensation received under the affiliate program. The Company does not provide tax advice and does not withhold taxes on behalf of Affiliates, except as required by law.

  • Store credit is non-transferable

  • Store credit may only be redeemed on [your website domain]

  • Store credit may not be exchanged for cash, gift cards, or equivalents

  • Expiration dates and usage limitations may apply as disclosed

Store credit incentives are promotional in nature and do not constitute cash compensation.

9. Affiliate Payments & Payout Method

Affiliate incentives, commissions, bonuses, or other rewards (“Affiliate Payments”) are processed once per calendar month, subject to verification and compliance with these Terms.

All Affiliate Payments are issued exclusively via PayPal. No alternative payout methods are available.


10. PayPal Registration & Payment Eligibility

To be eligible to receive any Affiliate Payment, Affiliates must:

  1. Complete the payment information form available at:
    https://form.typeform.com/to/gfIDzbtf (Provide an email address that is actively linked to a valid PayPal account capable of receiving payments.)

After submission of the required form, Affiliates acknowledge that it may take up to ten (10) business days for the Company to review, verify, and update the Affiliate’s account with the PayPal-linked email address.

If a scheduled monthly payout date occurs before the Affiliate’s PayPal information has been verified and applied to their account, the Affiliate Payment will be deferred to the next scheduled monthly payout.

The Company is not responsible for delayed payments resulting from:

  • Incomplete or inaccurate PayPal information

  • PayPal account restrictions or limitations

  • Failure to submit the required form in advance of a payout date


11. Multiple Incentives & Same-Day Campaigns

The Company may offer multiple incentive campaigns on the same day or over overlapping periods. Each campaign:

  • Has its own start time

  • Applies only to referrals made after the applicable announcement

  • Is limited to the terms stated for that specific campaign

Participation in one incentive does not guarantee eligibility for another.


12. Incentive Determinations & Final Authority

All determinations regarding eligibility, timing, verification, qualification, and awarding of any affiliate incentive, bonus, commission, or reward are made solely by the Company in its reasonable discretion and are final and binding.

Affiliates acknowledge and agree that:

  • The Company is not required to disclose internal data, tracking systems, logs, customer information, or verification methodologies

  • Affiliates have no right to audit, inspect, or access Company records related to incentive determinations

  • The Company’s determination that an Affiliate did or did not qualify for an incentive shall be conclusive


13. Disqualification & Termination

Decisions regarding disqualification are final.

  • Lost or delayed incentive payments due to incomplete information

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company’s liability is limited to the value of the applicable incentive, if any.


15. Modifications
