Affiliate Terms of Use

Affiliate must register for the Program by submitting a complete application. The Company may accept or reject any Affiliate application in its sole discretion. Incomplete, false or misleading applications are grounds for rejection. We reserve the right to refuse any applicant for any reason; in particular, we may reject affiliates whose content or marketing methods are inappropriate. For example, we may decline applications if the Affiliate’s website or promotional channels:

• Contain illegal, explicit, defamatory or discriminatory content.
• Promote products or services that compete with or undermine the Company’s offerings.
• Infringe third-party intellectual property or violate any laws.

The Company will notify applicants of acceptance or rejection. Acceptance into the Program is not transferable, and we may re-evaluate and withdraw acceptance at any time if, in our judgment, the Affiliate’s activities or materials fail to comply with these terms.

Affiliate agrees to conduct all marketing and promotional activities lawfully, ethically, and in the best interests of the Company. Affiliate must:

• Provide Accurate Information: At sign-up and at all times, provide accurate, complete contact and tax information. Keep your payment details current so that commissions can be disbursed.

• Comply with Laws and Guidelines: Follow all applicable laws, statutes, regulations and industry guidelines. In particular, you must comply with all federal and state consumer protection laws, including the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act, and the CAN-SPAM Act. For example, if an affiliate relationship exists, you should clearly disclose it in marketing materials. Advertising through spam or unsolicited commercial email is strictly prohibited. You shall not engage in any misleading, illegal or unethical marketing practices.

• Brand Consistency and Accuracy: Represent the Company honestly and accurately. Affiliates must not make deceptive or unsubstantiated claims about the Company or its products/services. Any depiction of the Company's brand must be on-brand. You may only use the Company's trademarks, logos or other Intellectual Property as authorized by us. Affiliates may use the Licensed Materials (banners, logos, text) provided by the Company, and any such use is subject to these Terms and the Company's brand guidelines. You may not alter or misuse the Company's brand assets, nor imply any partnership or endorsement beyond this Program. For example, Affiliates must not use "Prop Firm Match" (or confusingly similar terms) in their own domain names, social media handles, or marketing materials in a way that suggests ownership or partnership.

• Independence: Act as an independent contractor. Nothing in this Agreement creates a partnership, joint venture, or agency relationship between Affiliate and the Company. You have no authority to bind or commit the Company.

• No Self-Referrals: Affiliates may not refer themselves or purchases they control. Any referrals from the Affiliate or anyone in the Affiliate's household will not be eligible for Commission. Similarly, Affiliates may not encourage others to repeatedly click their own referral links or otherwise "game" the tracking system.

• Accurate Branding: When promoting on social media or other channels, clearly identify that you are an Affiliate. Posts and ads must not misrepresent your relationship with the Company or suggest that the Company endorses anything beyond the agreed-upon promotion.

• Privacy Compliance: If you collect any personal data (e.g., through email lists), you must comply with all applicable data protection and privacy laws (such as GDPR or CCPA) and provide any required disclosures (including your own privacy policy). Any personal data you collect in the course of promotion must be handled securely. The Company will process any personal data about you (for example, name or payment details) in accordance with its own Privacy Policy.

• Cooperate with Program Management: Provide any requested documentation (e.g., tax or KYC forms) when required. Cooperate with audits or reviews of referrals if the Company suspects any fraud or violation.

Violating any of these obligations will be deemed a material breach of this Agreement. We may suspend or terminate your Affiliate account at any time for non-compliance or misconduct (as detailed below under Termination).

To protect the Company's brand and comply with regulations, certain promotional methods are restricted or prohibited:

• Permitted Methods: Affiliates may promote the Company's offerings through honest social media posts, blog articles, newsletters, private forums, online communities, or word-of-mouth, provided the content is factually accurate and not misleading.

• Paid Advertising: Affiliates must obtain prior written approval from the Company before using paid advertising methods (such as search ads, display ads, sponsored content, etc.) that feature the Company's name, products, or services. We generally prohibit placing affiliate referral links in any paid media (e.g., Google Ads, Facebook Ads, Bing Ads, etc.) unless explicitly authorized by us. To request approval, email partners@propfirmmatch.com with your ad plan for review. Unapproved paid campaigns may result in termination of your account and forfeiture of commissions.

• Bidding on Trademarks: Affiliates may not bid on or use the Company's trademarks or brand names as keywords in pay-per-click (PPC) ads or domain names unless explicitly permitted. Such use can confuse customers and is not allowed.

• Spamming and Unsolicited Messaging: You may not send unsolicited bulk email (spam), mass social postings, or other unwanted communications. Marketing emails to third parties must comply with anti-spam laws (opt-out mechanisms, etc.). You may send promotional emails only to recipients who have expressly opted in or are existing customers, and must allow easy unsubscribe.

• Restricted Content: Affiliates must not associate the Company's brand with any illegal, offensive, or adult-oriented content. We will terminate any affiliate whose marketing channels contain violent, sexually explicit, discriminatory, defamatory, or otherwise objectionable material.

• Coupon/Rebate Sites: Unless specifically authorized, affiliates should not operate "deal" or "coupon" websites offering unauthorized discounts on the Company's products. (Any coupon or discount codes must be provided by the Company in writing.)

• Other Prohibited Practices: Geo-targeting users away from the Company's site (e.g., through hidden iframe redirects, forced affiliate cookies, etc.) is forbidden. Any method of artificially generating referrals (such as automated clicking, misusing scripts or bots, incentivizing unauthorized clicks, etc.) will lead to termination and possible legal action.

The Company reserves the right to review and approve any marketing materials or placement. If we determine that any affiliate promotion is unacceptable (e.g., it violates these rules or harms the Company’s reputation), we may require changes or suspend the affiliate’s account immediately.

• Earning Commissions: Affiliates earn a 10% commission on the first verified purchase made by each referred customer, and 2% commission on all subsequent purchases by that same customer. Commissions apply only to the purchase price of products/services sold by Prop Firm Match. Payment is triggered only for purchases that complete successfully and are not later refunded or cancelled.

• Trackable Sales Only: Only sales generated through the Affiliate's unique Referral Link or ID are eligible. Sales are "last-click" tracked via cookies and referral codes – if a customer clicks another affiliate's link after yours (and that affiliate is valid), their purchase will credit the last click. We will not award double commissions if multiple affiliates share credit.

• No Commissions on Refunds: If a sale is refunded or charged back, the commission for that sale will be reversed. We may deduct the refunded commission from future payouts or require repayment of the amount already paid out for that sale.

• No Household Commissions: Purchases made by anyone in the Affiliate's household (or by the Affiliate using another account) will not count for commission. Self-referrals or affiliate purchases count as fraud and void any associated commissions.

• Minimum Payout & Payment Schedule: Commissions accumulate in your Affiliate account. Commissions will only be paid out when the balance due meets or exceeds the $20 minimum payout threshold. Payouts are processed twice per month: on or about the 1st and 15th of each month (for the prior half-month's earnings). For example, earnings from Jan 1–15 would typically be paid out in early February, and earnings from Jan 16–31 paid in mid-February. If your balance at a payment date is below $20, it will carry over until the threshold is met.

• Payment Methods: We pay commissions in U.S. dollars (USD) via bank transfer or other payment methods at our discretion. Affiliates must supply valid payment details (e.g. bank account information) in the Affiliate dashboard. Affiliates are responsible for any fees charged by payment processors. If payment fails (e.g., invalid account), the funds will be held until corrected.

• KYC / Verification: For compliance, we require Identity Verification (KYC) from Affiliates whose payout exceeds $300 in any single payment period. If you qualify, you must submit a completed KYC form with government-issued ID and other requested information before the payout is released. Failure to complete KYC when requested will result in payment delays. We reserve the right to hold any payment for further verification if suspicious activity is detected.

• Payment Forfeiture: If an Affiliate account is inactive or closed with no request for payment, unpaid balances below the minimum threshold may be forfeited at our discretion.

We track referrals using cookies and the Affiliate’s unique Referral ID. When a user clicks the Affiliate’s link or enters the Referral ID on our site, a cookie is placed in the user’s browser. This cookie stores the Affiliate’s ID and remains active for the cookie duration (as specified in the Affiliate dashboard). Any qualifying purchase made by that user while the cookie is active will be attributed to the Affiliate.

• If the cookie expires or is deleted (or if cookies are disabled), we cannot track the referral and no commission will be earned.
• Only one affiliate is credited per sale; in overlapping referrals, the last valid Affiliate link clicked gets credit.
• This tracking model follows the industry standard of last-click attribution. The Company’s tracking logs and reports are final in determining commission eligibility.

The Company grants the Affiliate a limited, non-exclusive, revocable license to use Company-owned marketing materials (banners, logos, text links, etc.) solely for promoting the Company’s products under this Program. You may not create or use any materials that modify, reverse-engineer, or misrepresent the Company’s Intellectual Property. All right, title, and interest in Company trademarks, logos, and brand materials (“Licensed Materials”) remains with the Company.

Affiliates must abide by any brand guidelines provided. Licensed Materials must not be altered without permission, and the Affiliate represents that any use of the Company’s marks will be on behalf of the Company. The Affiliate may not use the Company’s trade names or logos in a manner that disparages or dilutes the brand. Usage of the Company’s name in an affiliate’s own URLs, social media handles, or app names is prohibited.

We reserve the right to review an Affiliate’s promotional placements. The Affiliate agrees to use only those banners, creatives and links supplied or approved by the Company. Affiliates may not create their own affiliate links or coupon codes to earn commission. Any attempt to manipulate or divert referrals (for example, through hidden iframes or software that overwrites cookies) is strictly forbidden.

Each party may have access to the other’s Confidential Information (such as business strategies, technical data, or client information). All such information disclosed during the Term is confidential and proprietary. Both Affiliate and Company agree not to disclose or use any Confidential Information of the other party for any purpose outside the scope of this Agreement. Confidential Information excludes information that is (a) already public; (b) independently developed; or (c) rightfully received from a third party. This confidentiality obligation survives termination of this Agreement.

The Company will collect and process any personal data about you in accordance with our Privacy Policy. The Affiliate must also comply with data protection laws in their jurisdictions. Affiliates collecting data (e.g., subscriber emails) must secure any personal data and may be required to provide an opt-out notice or privacy policy to end users. In particular, if applicable, Affiliates should adhere to GDPR, CCPA and other privacy regulations in how they handle user data and tracking.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE COMPANY AND ITS AFFILIATES WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO AFFILIATE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOST PROFITS) ARISING FROM THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PROGRAM, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. The Company’s total liability to the Affiliate for any claim under this Agreement shall not exceed the total Commissions actually paid to the Affiliate under this Agreement.

The Program is provided “as is” and without warranties. The Company MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES regarding the Program or its products/services, and disclaims all implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. The Affiliate’s sole remedy for dissatisfaction is to discontinue participation.

Affiliate shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers, employees and affiliates from and against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including legal fees) arising out of or related to: (a) Affiliate’s breach of this Agreement; (b) any misrepresentation or false statement by Affiliate; (c) any violation of law or third-party rights (including IP rights) by Affiliate’s promotional activities; or (d) any Content posted or sent by Affiliate. This indemnity survives termination of this Agreement.

Affiliate is an independent contractor. Nothing in this Agreement creates a partnership, joint venture, employment or agency relationship between the Company and the Affiliate. The Affiliate has no authority to bind the Company, and shall not hold itself out contrary to this section.

Either party may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, by giving written notice to the other party (email is sufficient). The Company may also terminate the Affiliate’s participation immediately for breach of these Terms. Termination is effective upon notice (or immediately, in case of breach). Upon termination:

• The Affiliate must immediately cease all use of the Company’s marks and promotional links.
• Any pending payouts for qualifying referrals earned prior to termination (and above the $20 threshold) will be paid according to the normal schedule, subject to refund adjustments. Commissions below the threshold at termination may be forfeited.
• Sections on Confidentiality, Limitation of Liability, Indemnification, and any other provisions that by their nature should survive, will remain in effect even after termination.

Grounds for Immediate Suspension/Termination: Without limiting the foregoing, the Company may suspend or terminate an Affiliate’s account without notice if the Affiliate:

• Engages in fraudulent or illegal activities (e.g., falsifying referrals, impersonation, hacking).
• Violates applicable laws or regulations in connection with the Program (e.g., spamming, deceptive advertising).
• Misuses the Company’s Intellectual Property or violates marketing restrictions (such as unauthorized paid ads or trademark misuse).
• Submits unauthorized coupons or discounts, or infringes third-party rights.
• Violates FTC guidelines or fails to maintain required disclosures.
• Engages in excessive or inappropriate traffic or leads (as determined by the Company).
• Any conduct that the Company reasonably determines is harmful to its reputation or business interests.

In the event of such termination for cause, any commissions not yet paid will be forfeited. The Company may also suspend the Affiliate account pending investigation. The Company’s decision to terminate or suspend under this section is final.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Dubai, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (or alternatively, subject to binding arbitration in Dubai under the rules of the Dubai International Arbitration Centre (DIAC). Each party submits to the jurisdiction of those courts or arbitrators and waives any objections to such venues.

• Amendments: The Company may update or modify these Terms from time to time. Revised terms will be posted on the Affiliate dashboard or website. Continued participation by the Affiliate after any change constitutes acceptance of the new terms.

• Assignment: Affiliate shall not assign or transfer any rights or obligations under this Agreement without prior written consent of the Company. The Company may assign its rights and obligations to any successor or affiliate.

• Entire Agreement: This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between the parties regarding the Affiliate Program and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals. No other agreements or promises are binding unless in writing signed by both parties.

• Severability: If any provision of this Agreement is found invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the Agreement will remain in full force.

• Notices: Notices shall be given via the contact information provided by each party or as otherwise stated on the Company's site. Email notice (e.g., to partners@propfirmmatch.com) is sufficient.

By participating in the Prop Firm Match Affiliate Program, you acknowledge that you have read these Terms and agree to abide by all conditions herein.
