# Affitor Refer Program — Terms

> Official terms of the Affitor Refer Program: rewards, attribution rules, holds, clawbacks, and eligibility for referring a brand to Affitor.

These are the official terms of the **Affitor Refer Program** — the program where you refer a SaaS brand to Affitor and earn launch bonuses plus a recurring share of Affitor's revenue from that brand. By enrolling in the program or sharing your referral link, you agree to these terms.

*Effective date: June 10, 2026. This page is the canonical version of the program terms; the in-product landing page is a summary of it.*

## 1. Rewards at a glance

| Reward | Amount | When it's earned |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Launch bonus (M1) | **$50** | Your referred brand completes setup and goes live |
| Growth bonus (M2) | **$350** | The referred brand's program reaches **$10,000 in tracked sales** |
| Revenue share | **15% of Affitor's platform fee** from that brand | Recurring, for **12 months** from the brand's first paid invoice |

Reward amounts and rates reflect the current program configuration. Changes apply prospectively only — they never reduce rewards for brands already attributed to you (see [Section 11](#11-program-changes)).

**Your referred brand benefits too.** Every brand on Affitor pays **$0 in platform fees until it has driven $10,000 in affiliate revenue** — so the brand you introduce gets the full product free while it grows. See [pricing](https://affitor.com/pricing).

## 2. Eligibility

To participate you must:

- Have an Affitor partner account in good standing
- Not be subject to U.S. sanctions or located in a sanctioned jurisdiction
- Provide any tax documentation required before payout (e.g., W-9 for U.S. persons, W-8BEN / W-8BEN-E otherwise)

You are responsible for any taxes on amounts you earn under this program.

## 3. What counts as a qualified referral

A referral qualifies when **all** of the following are true:

1. **The brand is new to Affitor.** The referred company becomes an Affitor advertiser for the first time. An existing advertiser adding another program does not qualify. (An existing Affitor *partner* who becomes an advertiser for the first time **does** qualify.)
2. **Not already in our pipeline.** The brand was not already in an active sales conversation with Affitor at the time of the referral.
3. **Attribution is intact** under the rules in [Section 4](#4-attribution--who-gets-credit).
4. **It is not a self-referral** ([Section 5](#5-self-referrals)).

Affitor may decline to credit any referral that does not meet these conditions, or that it reasonably believes is fraudulent or abusive.

### Reward checkpoints

- **M1 ($50)** is earned when the referred brand's program is **setup-complete**: tracking script installed and verified, lead tracking verified, payment provider (Stripe) connected, and program details completed. Signup alone does not trigger M1.
- **M2 ($350)** is earned when that brand's program crosses **$10,000 in tracked sales** (measured per program).
- **Revenue share (15%)** accrues on each platform-fee invoice the brand actually pays, for 12 months from the brand's first paid invoice.

## 4. Attribution — who gets credit

Only **one partner** earns rewards for a given brand. Credit is resolved in this order:

1. **Last click wins.** The partner whose referral link the brand clicked **most recently before signing up** receives the attribution. Each click starts a **30-day attribution window**; a newer click by another partner replaces an older one.
2. **One brand, one partner — permanently.** Once a brand is attributed, the link is exclusive and enforced at the database level. It does not change retroactively.
3. **Affitor's tracking system is the authoritative record** of clicks, signups, and attribution.
4. **Backstop.** If a situation cannot be resolved by the rules above (for example, a broken cookie chain across devices), Affitor will determine attribution at its sole discretion, and that determination is final.

There is no partial or split credit: when two partners claim the same brand, one receives the full reward and the other receives nothing for that brand.

## 5. Self-referrals

Self-referrals are void and earn nothing. This includes referring:

- Yourself, or your own company
- Any entity you own an interest in, work for, or contract with
- Any account you control directly or indirectly

If a referrer cannot be verified as a distinct person from the referred brand, the referral is not credited.

## 6. Holds and payouts

- Every reward (M1, M2, and revenue share) is subject to a **30-day hold** from the moment it's earned. Holds exist to cover refunds, payment disputes, and fraud review.
- After the hold clears, the reward is released to your partner balance and follows the standard [withdrawal process](/partners/payouts).
- Affitor has **no obligation to pay any reward until the underlying revenue has been received and cleared** from the referred brand. Revenue share accrues only on invoices that are actually paid.

## 7. Clawbacks and payment disputes

We believe in stating this precisely, because it protects both sides:

- **If a referred brand disputes a payment** (chargeback), the portion of your rewards funded by that payment is **reversed pro-rata when the dispute opens**.
- **If Affitor wins the dispute**, the reversed amount is **re-credited to you in full**.
- **Partial refunds** reverse rewards pro-rata to the refunded amount.
- Reversals are netted against your balance and future rewards. If your balance is insufficient and the reversed amount was already withdrawn, Affitor may request reimbursement directly.

## 8. Promotion rules

You may share your referral link anywhere you genuinely reach SaaS founders and teams — your site, newsletter, social, communities, direct intros. The following are prohibited:

- Bidding on "Affitor" or confusingly similar terms in paid search, or running ads that compete with Affitor's own advertising
- Registering domains or handles containing "Affitor" or variations of it
- Cookie stuffing, forced clicks, pop-unders, iframe tricks, or any artificial inflation of clicks
- Offering the referred brand cash, rebates, or other incentives to sign up through your link, unless Affitor authorizes it in writing
- Spam, and any misrepresentation of Affitor's pricing, features, or this program's rewards

Violations may result in removal from the program and **forfeiture of all unpaid rewards, whether or not they relate to the violation**.

## 9. Term and termination

- **You can leave anytime**, and Affitor may end your participation with notice. On a good-standing exit, rewards already earned are paid out after their holds clear, and **revenue share on brands you already referred continues through each brand's 12-month window**.
- **Termination for cause** — fraud, self-referral schemes, or violation of these terms — forfeits all unpaid rewards immediately.
- **Finality.** Attribution records and payments are considered final **12 months** after the related event; claims raised later than that won't be reopened.

## 10. Reward limits

Affitor reserves the right to set a maximum total reward per partner or per referred brand, and to review unusually high-volume accounts before payout.

## 11. Program changes

Affitor may update these terms and the program configuration (amounts, rates, thresholds, hold period). Changes take effect when published on this page and apply **prospectively**: rewards for brands already attributed to you keep the configuration in effect at the time of attribution. Continued participation after a change constitutes acceptance.

## 12. General

- Affitor is not liable for tracking errors caused by how a link was shared or used (modified URLs, blocked cookies, etc.), even where this reduces a reward.
- Affitor may reject any referral for any reason, including conflicts with existing relationships.
- These terms supplement the Affitor Terms of Service, which govern your account.
