After completing the Enrollment Requirements, you may be accepted into and enrolled in the Program. Acceptance into and continued participation in the Program may be granted, denied, withheld, or revoked in our sole discretion, as Amplemarket reserves the right to re-evaluate your enrollment in the Program at any time. Affiliate Representatives who complete the Enrollment Requirements on behalf of an Entity Affiliate must be authorized to agree to this Agreement on the Entity Affiliate’s behalf. You are not eligible to rejoin the Program if you were previously removed from the Program by Amplemarket.Upon Partner’s acceptance by Amplemarket into the Partner Program, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Amplemarket hereby authorizes Partner on a non-exclusive basis to promote and refer to Amplemarket prospects who may be interested in subscribing to the Amplemarket Platform (“Prospects”).
3. Commissions
Referrals Process. If you are accepted into, and enrolled in, the Program, you will receive a unique URL (“Affiliate Link”) that you may display on your website(s), social media page(s), and/or other applicable channel(s) (collectively, including the content contained therein, “Affiliate Channels”), to facilitate referrals. Use of the Affiliate Link on Affiliate Channels and referrals made through the Affiliate Link are subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any other guidelines we may make available to you.
Each entity that, within ninety (90) days of clicking on your Affiliate Link, subscribes to a paid plan for Amplemarket services (each such entity, a “Customer” and, each such paid plan, a “Subscription”) is a successful referral (“Referral”). For each Referral, you will receive ten percent (10%) of the revenue actually received by Amplemarket (excluding any applicable taxes, refunds, chargebacks, reversals, costs of collection, and the like) for the first year of the applicable Subscription. As a program participant, you will receive access to a dashboard designed to assist you in tracking clicks on your affiliate link, referrals, and eligibility for commissions (the “Dashboard”). For clarity, Amplemarket is not obligated to provide any payment or compensation of any type beyond that of earned Commissions, if any.
Any payments made by a Customer to Amplemarket for products and/or services other than the Subscription (including, without limitation, support, implementation, and/or training services) are not eligible for and will not be included in the calculation of Commissions.
Acceptance of Leads. Within a reasonable time, Amplemarket receiving details of a Proposed Lead, will review it and notify the Partner of their acceptance or rejection of that Proposed Lead. Any leads not accepted or rejected within a reasonable period shall be deemed rejected. Amplemarket will notify the Partner of accepting or rejecting a Proposed Lead. Amplemarket will be under no obligation to accept any Proposed Lead and may reject any Proposed Lead at its sole discretion, including because:
1. the Proposed Lead was an existing client of Amplemarket at the time of the submission of the Proposed Lead;
2. the Amplemarket was already involved in commercial discussions for the supply of an application service to the Proposed Lead at the time of the submission of the Proposed Lead;
3. notification of the opportunity has previously been submitted to the Amplemarket by the Partner or any third party concerning the Proposed Lead in the previous six (6) calendar months;
4. the Proposed Lead was not introduced during the Term of this Agreement; or
5. The Proposed Lead is located outside the Territory or in an area where Amplemarket has an exclusive arrangement for the supply of the applicable services or which Amplemarket is otherwise prohibited by contract or law from accepting.
Link Conflict. The Commission will be attributable only to the last Affiliate Link on which the applicable Customer clicked before purchasing the Subscription. For example, if a prospective Customer clicks on an Affiliate Link provided by Affiliate Z, then clicks on an Affiliate Link provided by Affiliate X and purchases a Subscription. Affiliate X will receive the full Commission applicable to such Subscription, even if the Subscription purchase is within ninety (90) days of the date on which such Customer clicked on Affiliate Z’s Affiliate Link and Affiliate Z meets all other conditions outlined in this Agreement regarding Commissions. Commissions will not be split or transferred under any circumstances.
Payment of Commissions. Commissions earned for each Referral will become payable thirty (30) days after Amplemarket’s receipt of payment for the applicable Customer’s Subscription. After this thirty (30) day period, the Commission will appear within the Dashboard (with the exception of holidays, weekends, and company closures, in such cases, the Commission will appear on or about the next business day). Commissions are up for processing according to a cadence that matches the applicable Customer’s payment terms. For example, if Customer A pays Amplemarket for a Monthly Subscription, you will be entitled to Commissions for each of the first twelve (12) consecutive months during which Customer A pays for such Subscription; if Customer B pays Amplemarket for an annual Subscription, you will be entitled to one payment of Commissions (in each case, provided that all other conditions outlined in this Agreement regarding Commissions are met).
Customer Refunds. If a refund is issued to a Customer (including, without limitation, due to such Customer’s cancellation of its Subscription), or a payment from a Customer is charged back or reversed after the Commission associated with such payment by Customer has already been made available in your Payment Method, then Amplemarket will, at its option: (i) debit your Payment Method for an amount equal to such refund, chargeback, or reversal amount, (ii) reduce or set off against any future Commissions due to you hereunder by an amount equal to such refund, chargeback, or reversal amount, or (iii) invoice you for an amount equal to such refund, chargeback, or reversal.
Taxes. You are solely responsible for all taxes, duties, excises, and other charges imposed by any government entity, as well as for any and all reporting requirements related to your Commissions. Amplemarket may withhold from any amounts due to you hereunder (or, when appropriate, invoice you for) any applicable taxes, refunds, chargebacks, reversals, costs of collection, and the like that are assessed against Amplemarket at any time in connection with Commissions.
Opt-Out. In the case of the Qualified Lead, using the Opt-Out clause present in the Customer Agreement, all payment obligations shall cease as of the date of termination. Amplemarket will only pay a Referral Bonus based on the Subscription Fee paid to and collected by Amplemarket before the termination or expiration of the Customer Agreement.
Effect of Termination
- Amplemarket’s obligation to pay Partner the Referral Bonus will survive for the initial twelve (12) months of the Customer Agreement. Such obligation will survive termination or expiration of this Agreement (except in the case of Amplemarket’s termination for Partner’s breach, in which case, all payment obligations shall cease as of the date of termination), provided that Amplemarket will only pay the Referral Bonus based on the Subscription Fee paid to and collected by Amplemarket before termination or expiration of this Agreement.
