Referral Program Terms
Last Updated: December 7, 2023
These Referral Program Terms are additional terms that apply if you use the FameDollars, BlazingBucks, and/or BuddyProfits referral programs (each a “Referral Program”, and together, the “Referral Programs”). These Referral Program Terms supplement the Affiliate Agreement and form part of your agreement with us.
1. Definitions
In these Referral Program Terms, defined terms have the same meanings given to them in the Affiliate Agreement. In addition, the following definitions apply:
“Referred Affiliate” means the person who joins the Affiliate Program as an Affiliate through the Referring User’s unique referral link.
“Referring User” means “you” or “your.”
2. Referral Programs
FameDollars, BlazingBucks and BuddyProfits offer a referral program by which existing affiliates can introduce people who are interested in becoming Affiliates in the Affiliate Program and receive referral payments from Affiliate Programs that are calculated and limited as described in these terms.
3. Referral Program Rules
- Only affiliates with a current affiliate account can participate in the Referral Program. If an affiliate’s account has been suspended or terminated by us for any reason or deleted by the affiliate, that affiliate will not be eligible to participate in the Referral Program.
- Each affiliate has a unique referral link (which can be accessed through your affiliate account) that the affiliate can share with others. When sharing your unique referral link, you must not impersonate FameDollars, BlazingBucks, and/or BuddyProfits or give the impression that your referral link is being shared or promoted by us. You must not use Google Ads or any similar advertising platform or search engine advertising service to share or promote your unique referral link. On our request, you must disclose the methods by which you share your unique referral link.
- The Referred Affiliate must click on your unique referral link and then register with the Affiliate Program using the same browser that they used to click on your unique referral link. If someone registers with the Affiliate Program other than by using your unique referral link, we will not link that account to your referral and no referral payments will be made to you.
- The Referred Affiliate must not have opened an affiliate account with the Affiliate Program (whether under the same name or another name) before clicking on your unique referral link. If the Referred Affiliate is currently or has previously been an affiliate in the Affiliate Program, no referral payments will be made to you for the referral.
- If the Referred Affiliate sets up more than one affiliate account, we will make referral payments to you on the earnings made by the Referred Affiliate from their first affiliate account only. No referral payments will be made to you on any further affiliate accounts set up by the Referred Affiliate.
- We will not pay any referral payments to you on any referral of a Referred Affiliate that we determine is owned or operated by you, is in a commercial relationship with you, or is a direct family member of you. You will provide any information that we request to enable us to determine whether the Referred Affiliate is owned or operated by you or if there is a commercial relationship between you and the Referred Affiliate.
- When promoting the Affiliate Program in any way as a Referring User, (1) you must not give a false impression of the Affiliate Program, the Program Websites, the services, programs, and content made available through the Affiliate Program and the Program, Websites, its affiliates, or the Affiliate Agreement; and (2) you must not make any statements that suggest to a potential Affiliate that the potential Affiliate will make a particular sum of money (or any money) from their use of the Affiliate Program, or any statements regarding the likely number of Program Websites. It is illegal for FameDollars, BlazingBucks, and/or BuddyProfits, or for a participant in the Referral Programs (including Referring Users and Referred Affiliates) to persuade anyone to make a payment by promising benefits from getting others to join any or all of the Referral Programs. Do not be misled by claims that high earnings are easily achieved from participation in the Referral Programs.
4. Referral Payments
- Once a Referred Affiliate has become a registered affiliate in the Affiliate Program according to the rules of the Referral Programs described above, Gamma will pay the Referring User a referral payment equal to 10% of every Qualified Purchase made by the Referred Customers of the Referred Affiliate for the lifetime of the payouts to that Referred Affiliate. Gamma, not the Referred Affiliate, bears the cost of the referral payment.
- All referral payments payable to you by us are inclusive of any taxes.
- The referral payments will be paid to you in accordance with section 8 of the Affiliate Agreement.
5. Gamma’s Rights relating to the Referral Program
- If referral payments have been made incorrectly, we may recover the wrongly paid sums from the user to whom the wrongly paid sums have been paid.
- We may request you or Referred Affiliates or both to provide us with ID and other information reasonably required by us to verify any referral payment to be made and the person to whom any referral payment should be made. Failure to provide any information requested by us might lead to you losing your entitlement to referral payments for the relevant Referred Affiliate.
- We may change any aspect of the Referral Programs (including how referral payments are calculated) or discontinue the Referral Programs at any time, but no change will deprive any Referring User of referral payments already earned based on the Qualified Purchases made by Referred Customers of Referred Affiliates before the changes take effect.
6. Circumstances under which we may withhold referral payments
- We may withhold any part of the referral payments due to the Referring User but not yet paid out: (1) if we think that you have or might have breached any part of the Affiliate Agreement; (2) if you attempt or threaten to breach any part of the Affiliate Agreement in a way that has or could have serious consequences for us or another affiliate (including actual or possible loss caused to us or another affiliate); or (3) if we suspect that any part of the referral payments due to you result from unlawful activity, either by you, by the Referred Affiliate, or by the Referred Customer who made the Qualified Purchase that resulted in the referral payment, for as long as is necessary to investigate the actual, threatened, or suspected breach(es) by you or the suspected unlawful activity (as applicable). If after our investigation, we conclude that (1) you have breached any part of the Affiliate Agreement; (2) you have attempted or threatened to breach any part of the Affiliate Agreement in a way that has or could have serious consequences for us or another user (including actual or possible loss caused to us or another user); or (3) any part of referral payments due to you result from unlawful activity, we may notify you that you have forfeited all or part of your referral payments.
- We will not have any responsibility to you if we withhold or forfeit any payment due to you under any or all of the Referral Programs where we have a right to do so under these Referral Program Terms.
- If we are withholding any part of the referral payments due to you and we determine that part of the referral payments withheld by us is unrelated to breaches by you of the Affiliate Agreement or suspected unlawful activity, then we may arrange for you to be paid the part of the referral payments that is unrelated to breaches by you of the Affiliate Agreement or suspected unlawful activity. However, if we consider that your breach(es) of the Affiliate Agreement has or might cause us loss, we may withhold all referral payments due to you but not yet paid and we may set off those amounts against any losses suffered by us.
