Affiliate Terms

Last updated [DATE]

The program

These terms apply to the ViralAri affiliate program, run by Novek Labs ("we", "us"). By applying, you ("the affiliate") agree to them. You must have a ViralAri account, and we approve or decline every application at our discretion.

You are an independent contractor. Nothing in these terms makes you our employee, agent or partner, and you may not make promises or sign anything on our behalf.

Commission

You earn 20% of every payment a referred customer makes to ViralAri, monthly or yearly subscriptions and one-time check packs alike, for as long as that customer keeps paying. Commission is calculated on the amount the customer actually paid, after discounts and excluding sales tax and VAT.

A referred customer is a person who creates a new ViralAri account after clicking your link. $0 orders earn nothing; you earn when the customer pays.

If a payment is refunded, the commission on it is reversed (in proportion for a partial refund). A chargeback reverses the whole commission. If we already paid you a commission that is later reversed, we deduct it from your next payout.

We may change the commission rate for future payments with 30 days' notice by email. Commission already earned is not affected.

Hold period and payouts

Each commission is held for 30 days after the payment, to cover refunds and chargebacks. After the hold it becomes available.

We pay available commission once a month, around the 15th, when your available balance is at least $50 (USD). Below that, the balance carries over to the next month.

We pay by PayPal or Wise to the payout email in your affiliate settings. Keep it correct: we are not responsible for payments sent to an address you gave us. Fees charged by the provider on your side are yours.

Taxes

You are responsible for reporting and paying any taxes on your commission. We collect your country when you apply.

We may ask for tax forms before we pay you, for example a W-9 if you are a US person or a W-8BEN if you are not. We may hold payouts until we receive a form we are required to collect.

Links, cookies and attribution

Use only the link from your affiliate dashboard (or your page link with ?via=your-code). When someone clicks it, a cookie named va_aff is set for 60 days. If they create a new ViralAri account in that time, they are credited to you. If they click another affiliate's link later, the last click wins.

People who already have a ViralAri account, or who were already customers, are never credited. Each customer can be credited to one affiliate only. Our records decide attribution.

Attribution needs cookies. If a visitor blocks cookies, uses another device or browser, or clears their cookies, the sign-up may not be credited, and we cannot credit it by hand.

How you may promote ViralAri

Be honest. Describe ViralAri accurately and only say what you know is true. Never promise or imply guaranteed views, followers, virality, income or any other result. The Viral Score is an estimate.

Not allowed: bidding on "ViralAri" or similar brand terms (including misspellings) in search or social ads; spam of any kind (unsolicited email, messages or comments); posting on coupon, deal, cashback or reward sites; offering cash, gifts or rebates for sign-ups; referring yourself, your own accounts or people in your household; creating fake accounts; and using our name, logo or Ari in a way that suggests you are ViralAri or that we endorse you.

You may use the logo and the approved description from your affiliate dashboard. Do not change them.

Disclosure

You must clearly disclose that you earn a commission, every time you share your link, in a way your audience will see before they click. This is required by the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the UK Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) and similar rules elsewhere. For example: "I earn a commission if you subscribe through my link." Use #ad or the platform's paid partnership label where it applies.

Fraud and abuse

We monitor for self-referrals, fake sign-ups, unusual traffic and high refund rates. We may block a referral, reverse commissions earned through a breach of these terms, hold unpaid commissions while we review your account, or suspend or close your account.

Termination and changes

You can leave the program at any time by emailing [email protected]. We can suspend or end your participation at any time. If we end it for a reason other than a breach of these terms, commission you already earned is still paid under these terms.

If you breach these terms, unpaid commission may be forfeited.

We may change these terms or end the program. We will email you at least 30 days before a material change takes effect. If you keep promoting ViralAri after that, you accept the new terms.

Liability

The program is provided as is. To the extent the law allows, our total liability to you under these terms is limited to the commission we owe you. Questions? Email [email protected].
