Affiliate Terms and Conditions
This agreement is between you and Odyne LLC, the company behind SourceDock. By joining the affiliate program, you agree to it.
1. Joining
You apply on our affiliates page. We read every application and may say yes or no. Once we say yes, you get your own link and your own sign-in to see your numbers.
This isn't exclusive. You can promote other tools, and we can work with other partners.
Keep your email and payout details current. Keep your password safe, and tell us right away if someone else uses your sign-in.
2. Your link
When someone opens your link, we keep a cookie for 90 days. If they make a new SourceDock account in that time, that account is yours for good. If they open another affiliate's link after yours, the last link they opened counts.
People who already had a SourceDock account before they opened your link don't count.
If it's unclear whose link a customer came from, our records decide.
People who make an account through your link get 20% off their first month on a monthly plan. It doesn't stack with any other code.
3. What you earn
You earn 30% of what each of your customers pays for SourceDock. How long you earn on each customer is set on your account when we approve you. It counts from their first payment, and canceling and coming back doesn't restart it. The rate you join at stays on your account.
You earn on what your customers pay us, with tax left out. If a card company reverses a payment (a chargeback), what you earned on it comes back off.
4. How we pay
Your share of a payment clears 30 days after the customer pays. Once a month we pay what has cleared, through Stripe, to the Stripe account you connect. If less than $50 has cleared, it carries over to the next month. Any currency or transfer fees are yours.
If a payment is reversed after we paid you for it, that amount comes off your next payout.
If you think a payout is wrong, tell us within 30 days of it. We may hold a payout while we check for fraud.
If we find fraud, the commissions it touched are cancelled.
Your affiliate dashboard is your statement of what you earned and what we paid.
Payouts go to the Stripe account you connect, and Stripe's own terms cover that account. If your payout details are wrong, a payout lost that way is yours.
5. How you promote SourceDock
Say plainly that you earn money when people sign up through your link, as the FTC requires.
Be honest about what SourceDock does, and don't promise anyone income or results.
Don't buy ads on the SourceDock name or anything close to it.
Don't send spam, and don't drop your link's cookie on people who didn't click it.
Don't post your link on coupon or deal sites, and don't offer discounts or codes of your own beyond the program's 20% off the first month.
Don't make pages that look like SourceDock's, and don't say you are SourceDock or speak for us.
You can't earn on your own account, or on the accounts of people in your home.
Don't use bots, fake clicks or fake sign-ups.
Follow the rules of every site where you post your link.
If someone asks you to stop emailing or calling them, stop right away.
What you spend to promote SourceDock is yours to pay.
6. Ending
You or we can end this at any time. If it ends without cause, you keep earning on the customers you already sent for 12 months after the end, as long as they keep paying, and we pay it once it clears. If we end it because you broke these rules or for fraud, every commission stops right away, and unpaid ones are lost.
When this ends, stop promoting SourceDock and take down our name, logo and your link.
If a reversed payment leaves you owing us money after this ends, pay it within 30 days.
After this ends, the parts about money owed, taxes, covering us and our limit still apply.
7. Our name and your customers
You may use the SourceDock name, logo and Share kit only to promote SourceDock, and only while this lasts. They stay ours. If you send us ideas, we may use them freely.
Keep private anything we share with you that isn't public.
Customers you send become SourceDock customers. You see counts and money only, never their names or data.
8. The legal part
Your promises: you are at least 18 and allowed to agree to this. If you join for a company, you can sign for it. The way you promote SourceDock follows this agreement and every law that applies to you, and you own or have the right to use everything you post.
You cover us: if anyone makes a claim against SourceDock (Odyne LLC) or its people because of how you promoted us, because you broke this agreement, because your content was false or misleading or broke the FTC's endorsement rules or another law, or because of your own taxes, you will defend us and pay what it costs. That includes losses, costs and lawyer fees.
Taxes: you handle your own taxes. Stripe asks for your tax form when you set up payouts (a W-9 in the US, or a W-8 outside it). We report payments as the law requires, and we may hold your payouts until the form is in.
As is: we may change the program or end it, and we make no promise about how much you will earn.
You are not our employee or agent. Our total responsibility to you is never more than the commissions we paid you in the last 12 months. Ohio law applies to this agreement.
Neither of us owes the other for lost profits or other indirect losses.
We may change these terms. We'll email you 30 days before a change, and a change only counts from then on.
If you keep promoting after a change, you accept it. If you don't want it, you can leave first.
Before anything else, email us and give us 30 days to fix it. If we can't, one arbitrator decides, not a court. The American Arbitration Association runs it, under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. It takes place in Ohio, and it can be done by video call.
Each of us brings only our own claim, never as part of a group or class action. Either of us can still use small claims court for a claim small enough to go there. Only what arbitration can't decide goes to the state or federal courts in Ohio. You must bring any claim within 6 months of when it came up. The winner can ask the loser to pay reasonable lawyer fees.
This is the whole agreement about the affiliate program. If you also use SourceDock as a seller, our Terms of Service cover that.
You can't hand this agreement to someone else without our OK. We can pass it on if SourceDock is sold or merged.
If a court throws out one part, the rest still counts. If we let something slide once, we can still enforce it later.
We send notices to the email on your account. Send yours to [email protected].
