Vendasta is providing you an opportunity to become an independent Vendasta Affiliate (“Affiliate”), wherein you can earn additional money for accounts that you refer to Vendasta. Vendasta reserves the sole and exclusive right to determine the amount of remuneration each Affiliate will receive in exchange for the Affiliate’s efforts. Affiliate commission is further
discussed herein.

This Affiliate Agreement (“Agreement”) governs Your application for, and any subsequent participation in, Vendasta’s Affiliate program. By submitting your application to the Vendasta Affiliate Program, You thereby accept the terms of this Agreement and confirm that you have read and understand this Agreement, and agree that You are bound by its terms.

SECTION 1 – PARTIES

All references to “Vendasta” herein means and refers to Vendasta USA, Inc., doing business as Vendasta. All references to “You” and “Your” mean and refer to the person or entity who has executed this Agreement. Vendasta and You are each referred to herein as a “Party,” and collectively as the “Parties”.

SECTION 2 – APPLICATION

You agree to provide all information requested by Vendasta in connection with Your Affiliate application, and You affirm that all information that You provide is truthful and accurate. You understand and agree that Vendasta retains sole and exclusive discretion to determine whether You qualify for participation in the Vendasta Affiliate program. Not everyone who applies for the Vendasta Affiliate program will qualify to participate. Employees of Vendasta or its subsidiaries, are not eligible to participate in the Vendasta Affiliate Program.

SECTION 3 – CONSENT TO BE CONTACTED

You expressly consent to be contacted at the email address and the phone number You provide in Your application about Your application and the Affiliate program, including through automated dialing systems, texts and artificial or pre-recorded messages. This consent is a material condition of this Agreement and may only be revoked upon surrendering status as a
Vendasta Affiliate.

SECTION 4 – COMPENSATION

If Your application to become an Affiliate is approved by Vendasta, You will receive a unique Affiliate ID. The Affiliate ID will be incorporated into the forms & URLs which you will use to advertise Vendasta. You will be eligible to receive a commission for a sale (“Sale”) to a prospect that is associated with your Affiliate ID.

No referrals shall be eligible for a commission if made prior to the date of Vendasta’s approval of the Affiliate’s application and the Affiliate’s acceptance of these terms. Following Vendasta’s approval of the Affiliate’s application, a referral will only be deemed valid and eligible for commission if the Prospect accesses Vendasta’s services through the Affiliate’s designated
referral link or form or via a referral resulting from a personal introduction provided the affiliate-program@vendasta-new-ms.colonelpanic.info email address is included as a CC or BCC on the initial email correspondence.

In the event that a potential new user (“Prospect”) has multiple Affiliate cookies (“Cookies”), the most recently-acquired Cookie will determine which Affiliate is credited with a Sale. In order to receive Commissions, Affiliates must provide valid banking information from a supported financial institution. Currently, only U.S. or Canada -based accounts are supported.

To receive payments, an Affiliate must:
(1) be actively registered,
(2) submit a completed IRS W9 form (if in the U.S), and
(3) provide banking details (US: ABA Routing number and Account number; Canada: Financial Institution number, Transit number and Account number)

Provided that the Sold Account (as defined below) remains in good status within thirty (30) days from the Sale, You will be paid a commission for each Sold Account that generates a payment to Vendasta in a month (“Commission”). Except as otherwise provided herein, Commission payments will be paid on the 15th of each month following Vendasta’s receipt of payment for a
Sold Account, subject to the other terms of this Agreement. In the event the 15th of each month falls on a weekend or holiday, Commission payments will be paid on the first business day after the 15th. All Commission payments are based on the amount of fees received by Vendasta, which for clarity does not include sales taxes or any third party fees received by Vendasta.

The amount of Commissions are as follows:

Annual Subscription Referrals
For each Prospect referred by the Affiliate that purchases an annual upfront subscription to Vendasta’s services, Vendasta shall pay the Affiliate a one-time commission equal to twenty percent (20%) of the subscription fees actually paid by the Prospect for the initial twelve (12) months of such subscription. No further commission shall be payable in respect of any renewal,
extension, or subsequent subscription period.

Monthly Subscription Referrals
For each Prospect referred by the Affiliate that purchases Vendasta’s services on a month-to-month basis, Vendasta shall pay the Affiliate a monthly commission equal to ten percent (10%) of the subscription fees actually paid by the Prospect, for a maximum period of twelve (12) consecutive months commencing on the date the Prospect becomes a Vendasta customer. No commission shall be payable after the expiry of such twelve (12)-month period, regardless of whether the Prospect continues to subscribe.

General
Commission payments shall be calculated solely on subscription fees actually received by Vendasta from the applicable Prospect, exclusive of taxes, discounts, chargebacks, or refunds. Vendasta reserves the right to withhold or adjust commission payments in the event of non-payment or refund by the Prospect.

All Commissions are paid in U.S. Dollars (USD). Some payment methods may incur processing fees that may be deducted from Your Commissions payment. Your Commission must equal or exceed Fifty and 00/100 Dollars ($50.00) (USD) before You receive a payment from Vendasta. If Your Commissions in a 120-day period do not exceed $50.00 (USD) Your Commissions will not be paid and will be forfeited.

If You are not a resident of the United States, Vendasta may withhold tax (including without limitation VAT) where required by applicable law. You are solely responsible for complying with all tax laws in Your respective jurisdiction(s) including, but not limited to, the payment of all required taxes, and filing of all returns and other required documents with, the applicable governing body(ies).

Affiliates will not be paid any Commissions for payments made on Affiliate’s own user account(s). Affiliates are not permitted to open a Vendasta account under the name of another person or entity, under a fictitious name, or under any name merely for the purpose of obtaining Commissions or any other compensation. Affiliates are not permitted to offer cash rebates or other monetary incentives to obtain Sales.

Commissions are paid only for transactions that actually occur between Vendasta and Vendasta’s customer and in which payment is received by Vendasta. If payment for a Sold Account later results in a refund or chargeback, and if a Commission was paid to You for that Sold Account payment, then the Commission will be deducted from Your future Commissions. If within 90 days, there are no commissions payable to deduct; Vendasta has the right to reimbursement from You of the Commission paid.

If Vendasta determines, in its sole and exclusive discretion, that any Sale was procured fraudulently or as a result of any violation of this Agreement or applicable law, no Commission will be paid for such Sale and, for past sales, such payment amounts shall be deducted from Your future Commissions, and Vendasta may terminate this Agreement immediately without
Vendasta having any liability to You.

SECTION 5 – TERM AND TERMINATION

The term of this Agreement will begin when You click “I accept the Terms and Conditions” and your participation in the Affiliate program is approved. Your participation in the Vendasta Affiliate program will continue month-to-month until terminated. Either Party may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, by giving the other Party thirty (30) days’ written
notice of termination.

If, in our sole discretion, You fail, or we suspect that You have failed, to comply with any term or provision of the Agreement or violated any law, whether in connection with Your use of Vendasta or otherwise, we may terminate the Agreement or suspend Your access to the Affiliate website (“Website”) at any time without notice to You. In such an instance, and in our sole discretion, we may also for the aforementioned reasons, terminate our relationship and suspend any accounts owned/controlled by You. In the event this Agreement is canceled due to Your breach, You immediately forfeit all Commissions, and any other payments owed to You or that may in the future be owed to You without any further liability by Vendasta to You.

If this Agreement is terminated or canceled, then all provisions that, by their nature, should survive, will survive, including, but not necessarily limited to, all limitations of liability, non-disparagement, disclaimers of warranties, indemnity obligations, mandatory arbitration and class action waiver provisions, and exceptions to arbitration. All representations and warranties
undertaken by You shall also survive termination or cancellation of this Agreement and/or Your Vendasta account.

SECTION 6 – ADDITIONAL REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

In addition to Your other representations and warranties herein, You further represent and warrant that there are no prior or pending government investigations or inquiries of, or prosecutions against You by the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”), any other federal or state governmental agency, or any industry regulatory authority, anywhere in the world, nor any prior or pending private lawsuits against You which relate to alleged intentional torts or alleged violation of any consumer protection or advertising laws. If You become the subject of such an investigation, inquiry, prosecution, or lawsuit any time after this Agreement is executed, You are required to notify Vendasta of the same within 24 hours. Vendasta, in its sole and exclusive discretion, may immediately terminate Your participation in Vendasta’s Affiliate program, as well as immediately terminate this Agreement, based on any investigation, proceeding, or lawsuit identified pursuant to this paragraph.
