Partner Program Agreement

Last updated: May 12, 2026 · This agreement governs your participation in the OutletDomains Partner Program. Read it. We mean it.

1. The Parties

This Partner Program Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into between OutletDomains LLC, an Arizona limited liability company ("OutletDomains," "we," "us," "our"), and you ("Partner," "you," "your") effective the date you activate a Partner Link or accept this Agreement, whichever comes first.

2. The Program

OutletDomains operates a referral program ("Partner Program") under which we issue you a unique referral link in the format outletdomains.com/YOUR_USERNAME ("Partner Link"). When a new customer visits your Partner Link and purchases an eligible product or service from us within thirty (30) days, you may earn a commission ("Commission") according to the rates set forth below. We may change rates, products, attribution windows, or program rules at any time, in our sole discretion, with or without notice.

2.1 Commission Structure. Commissions are calculated per product as follows:

Rates above reflect the current schedule. We reserve the right to update product pricing, hard costs, or split ratios at any time. Active recurring subscriptions retain the rate that was in effect when the customer first paid. New rates apply to new sales only.

2.2 Tier-2 Referral Override. If you refer another person into the Partner Program (the "Downstream Partner"), and that Downstream Partner later refers a paying customer, you earn an additional override commission equal to ten percent (10%) of the Downstream Partner's commission on each eligible sale. The override is paid in addition to (not deducted from) the Downstream Partner's commission, on the same Friday payout schedule, subject to the same 7-day holdback and chargeback rules.

(a) Capture. The Downstream Partner's upline is captured the moment they activate their partner link, based on the most recent od_ref attribution cookie. Only one upline per Downstream Partner. First-touch wins. No upline changes after activation.

(b) Active Status Required. Override commissions are paid only if you are an active partner in good standing at the time of the sale. If your partner status becomes inactive, suspended, or terminated for any reason, override commissions stop immediately (with no back-payment when you reactivate).

(c) One Level Only. The override applies only to your direct referrals. We do not pay tier-3 or beyond. This is not a multi-level marketing scheme.

(d) Chargeback. If the Downstream Partner's underlying commission is revoked under Section 4, your tier-2 override on that sale is also revoked.

3. Commissions, Holdbacks, and Payouts

(a) Holdback. All Commissions are held for a minimum of seven (7) calendar days following the customer's payment ("Holdback Period") to allow for refund, chargeback, and fraud screening before they become eligible for payout.

(b) Payout Schedule. Eligible Commissions are paid weekly, on Fridays, via Stripe Connect Express to the bank account you connect during onboarding. You must complete Stripe Connect verification, including all KYC/AML requirements, before any payout is issued. Payouts below a $25 minimum threshold roll into the following week.

(c) Currency + Fees. Payouts are made in U.S. dollars. Stripe Connect fees, currency conversion fees, payout fees, and any taxes are your responsibility, not ours.

(d) Taxes. You are solely responsible for reporting your Commission income to the appropriate tax authority. We may collect a Form W-9 (or equivalent foreign form) and may issue a Form 1099 (or equivalent) if required by law. Failure to provide a valid tax form will result in withheld payouts.

(e) No Advances. We do not advance, prepay, or guarantee any commission. Commissions are paid only after a referred customer's payment has cleared the Holdback Period without refund or chargeback.

4. Chargebacks, Refunds, and Forfeiture ★

(a) Chargeback = Forfeiture. If a customer you referred initiates a chargeback, payment dispute, or successful refund — for any reason — the corresponding Commission is immediately revoked. If the Commission was already paid out, you owe it back and we may deduct it from any future Commissions.

(b) Pattern of Chargebacks = Removal. If a Partner's referred customers initiate three (3) or more chargebacks in any rolling ninety (90) day period, OR if the Partner's chargeback rate exceeds two percent (2%) of referred sales in any rolling thirty (30) day period, the Partner will be immediately and permanently removed from the Partner Program. All pending Commissions are forfeited. Any recurring or trailing Commissions on existing customers are terminated immediately. No exceptions.

(c) Fraud = Removal + Recovery. If we determine, in our sole discretion, that a Partner has engaged in fraudulent activity (including self-referrals, fake purchases, stolen payment methods, manipulated attribution, or paid-incentivized purchases solely to generate commission), the Partner is permanently removed, all Commissions are forfeited, and we reserve the right to pursue recovery of any commissions already paid out, plus damages and reasonable attorney's fees.

(d) Refund Within 14 Days. Customers who voluntarily request a refund within 14 days of purchase trigger Commission revocation for the corresponding sale.

5. Promotional Rules

(a) Honest Marketing Only. You may promote OutletDomains only through truthful, non-deceptive means. You may not make any false, misleading, or exaggerated claims about our services, pricing, results, customer testimonials, or earnings.

(b) FTC Compliance. You must clearly and conspicuously disclose your affiliate/partner relationship with OutletDomains in any promotion, in accordance with the FTC's Endorsement Guides and any applicable law in your jurisdiction.

(c) Prohibited Channels. You may NOT promote your Partner Link through:

• Unsolicited email or SMS (spam). CAN-SPAM, CASL, GDPR — all of it applies to you.
• Paid search ads on the keywords "OutletDomains," "Outlet Domains," or variations/misspellings.
• Paid social ads that impersonate OutletDomains or use our logo without written permission.
• Bot-driven traffic, click-farms, incentivized clicks, or any artificial inflation of traffic or conversions.
• Coupon or cash-back sites without prior written approval.
• Adult, hate, violent, illegal, or otherwise objectionable content.
• Content that violates the terms of the platform you are posting on (e.g. TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit ToS).
• Misrepresentation of yourself as an OutletDomains employee, owner, or authorized representative.

(d) Trademarks. You may use the OutletDomains name and logo in promotional materials, but only in unmodified form and only to refer to our services. You may not register or use any domain, social handle, business name, or trademark that incorporates "OutletDomains" or anything confusingly similar.

(e) Self-Referrals. You may not refer yourself, a household member, an alias, or any account you control. Self-referrals will be invalidated and may trigger removal.

6. Attribution

(a) Attribution is based on a thirty (30) day cookie / localStorage window set when a visitor clicks your Partner Link, plus the client_reference_id passed to Stripe at checkout.

(b) Last-Click Wins. If a customer clicks more than one Partner Link before purchasing, the most recent Partner Link is credited.

(c) Cookie Reset. Customers may clear cookies, use a different browser, use a different device, or use private browsing — any of which may break attribution. We are not liable for lost attribution due to browser behavior, ad blockers, privacy tools, or any factor outside our direct technical control.

(d) Direct or Existing Customers. Customers who arrive at OutletDomains directly, through a non-partner channel, or who are already in our system at the time they click your Partner Link, are not eligible to be attributed to you.

7. Independent Contractor

You are an independent contractor. This Agreement creates no employment, agency, partnership, joint venture, or franchise relationship between you and OutletDomains. You have no authority to make any representations, contracts, or commitments on behalf of OutletDomains, and you may not hold yourself out as having such authority.

8. Confidentiality

You may receive non-public information about OutletDomains, including pricing, internal tools, sales data, customer lists, marketing strategy, and product roadmap ("Confidential Information"). You agree to hold all Confidential Information in strict confidence, use it only to perform your obligations under this Agreement, and not disclose it to any third party. This obligation survives termination of this Agreement.

9. Term + Termination

(a) Term. This Agreement begins when you activate your Partner Link and continues until terminated.

(b) By You. You may terminate this Agreement at any time by emailing partners@outletdomains.com or by deactivating your account.

(c) By Us — At Will. We may suspend or terminate your participation, with or without cause, at any time, in our sole discretion. Cause includes but is not limited to: chargeback patterns, fraud, deceptive marketing, spam, ToS violations, abusive behavior toward our staff or customers, failure to complete Stripe Connect KYC, or any breach of this Agreement.

(d) Effect of Termination. Upon termination, your Partner Link is deactivated, all pending Commissions are reviewed for eligibility, and recurring or trailing Commissions on existing referred customers are immediately terminated. We owe you no Commissions earned after the date of termination. If termination is for cause under Section 4 or for fraud, all pending Commissions are forfeited.

10. No Guarantee of Earnings

OutletDomains makes no representation, promise, or guarantee about the amount of Commissions you will earn. Your results depend entirely on your effort, audience, marketing skill, market conditions, and many factors outside our control. Past Commissions are not indicative of future Commissions. Any income examples shown by OutletDomains are illustrative, not typical, and not a guarantee of your results.

OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL COMMISSIONS PAID TO YOU IN THE NINETY (90) DAYS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100), WHICHEVER IS GREATER.
