Affiliate program terms

A referral is attributed to you by a 90-day, last-click referral window on your link, by your promo code at checkout, or by the referral binding recorded when your visitor created their account. Commission accrues only on revenue we actually collect from that customer. One customer can be attributed to one affiliate.

The commission rate is 30% of every payment an attributed customer makes. Founding partners (the first 30 accepted, while the founding window is open) earn on each referral for the lifetime of that customer. Partners who join after the founding group earn for 24 months per referral.

The rate and duration lock to each referral at the time it converts. Later changes to the program never reduce what an already-attributed referral pays you. Founding status is not a guarantee that the program continues; it is a guarantee about your referrals if it does.

A commission becomes payable 60 days after the underlying customer payment clears, which covers the refund window. Payable balances are paid monthly via PayPal or Wise once they pass $25 USD; smaller balances roll forward without expiry while your account is in good standing. Transfer fees are deducted from the payout. You are an independent contractor, not an employee or agent, and you handle your own taxes.

A refund, cancellation reversal, or chargeback voids the commission on that payment. If it happens before the commission is paid out, the commission is simply removed. If it happens after, the amount is offset against your future payouts, or repayable if the program ends before the offset completes.

Referring yourself, or any account you control or have a financial interest in. Bidding on "Optivation", "Optivation", or close misspellings in paid search, or using those marks in domains or handles. Cookie-stuffing, forced clicks, iframes, or browser-extension injection. Listing your code on coupon or deal aggregator sites. Spam, misleading claims, or income promises. We make the final call on whether a method crosses these lines, and undisclosed paid traffic is treated the same as the methods above.

You must clearly disclose your material connection to Optivation — commission, free access, or both — next to every recommendation, in line with the FTC Endorsement Guides and the law that applies where you publish. Recommendations without disclosure are grounds for removal from the program.

Either side can end participation at any time, no reason needed. If we remove you for fraud or a clause-5 violation, unpaid and unlocked commissions are forfeited. If you leave, or we part ways in good faith, locked balances pay out on the normal schedule.

We can change these terms with 30 days' notice; clause 2's protection for already-attributed referrals survives any change. These terms are governed by New Zealand law, with disputes resolved in New Zealand courts. Nothing here is a guarantee of earnings.
