Last Updated: February, 2026 | Download PDF
Vendasta is providing you an opportunity to become an independent Vendasta Affiliate (“Affiliate”), wherein you can earn additional money for accounts that you refer to Vendasta. Vendasta reserves the sole and exclusive right to determine the amount of remuneration each Affiliate will receive in exchange for the Affiliate’s efforts. Affiliate commission is further discussed herein.
This Affiliate Agreement (“Agreement”) governs Your application for, and any subsequent participation in, Vendasta’s Affiliate program. By submitting your application to the Vendasta Affiliate Program, You thereby accept the terms of this Agreement and confirm that you have read and understand this Agreement, and agree that You are bound by its terms.
SECTION 1 – PARTIES
All references to “Vendasta” herein means and refers to Vendasta USA, Inc., doing business as Vendasta. All references to “You” and “Your” mean and refer to the person or entity who has executed this Agreement. Vendasta and You are each referred to herein as a “Party,” and collectively as the “Parties”.
SECTION 2 – APPLICATION
You agree to provide all information requested by Vendasta in connection with Your Affiliate application, and You affirm that all information that You provide is truthful and accurate. You understand and agree that Vendasta retains sole and exclusive discretion to determine whether You qualify for participation in the Vendasta Affiliate program. Not everyone who applies for the Vendasta Affiliate program will qualify to participate. Employees of Vendasta or its subsidiaries, are not eligible to participate in the Vendasta Affiliate Program.
SECTION 3 – CONSENT TO BE CONTACTED
You expressly consent to be contacted at the email address and the phone number You provide in Your application about Your application and the Affiliate program, including through automated dialing systems, texts and artificial or pre-recorded messages. This consent is a material condition of this Agreement and may only be revoked upon surrendering status as a Vendasta Affiliate.
SECTION 4 – COMPENSATION
If Your application to become an Affiliate is approved by Vendasta, You will receive a unique Affiliate ID. The Affiliate ID will be incorporated into the forms & URLs which you will use to advertise Vendasta. You will be eligible to receive a commission for a sale (“Sale”) to a prospect that is associated with your Affiliate ID.
No referrals shall be eligible for a commission if made prior to the date of Vendasta’s approval of the Affiliate’s application and the Affiliate’s acceptance of these terms. Following Vendasta’s approval of the Affiliate’s application, a referral will only be deemed valid and eligible for commission if the Prospect accesses Vendasta’s services through the Affiliate’s designated referral link or form or via a referral resulting from a personal introduction provided the affiliate-program@vendasta.com email address is included as a CC or BCC on the initial email correspondence.
In the event that a potential new user (“Prospect”) has multiple Affiliate cookies (“Cookies”), the most recently-acquired Cookie will determine which Affiliate is credited with a Sale. There is a 90-day cookie window.
To receive payments, an Affiliate must: (1) be actively registered, (2) submit a completed IRS W9 form (if in the U.S), and (3) provide valid PayPal information via the “Payouts” tab in the Affiliate Dashboard.
Provided that the Sold Account remains in good status within thirty (30) days from the Sale, You will be paid a commission for each Sold Account that generates a payment to Vendasta in a month (“Commission”). Commission payout totals are updated on the 5th of each month. Commission payments will be paid on the 15th of each month for the previous month’s referrals, subject to the other terms of this Agreement. In the event the 15th falls on a weekend or holiday, Commission payments will be paid on the first business day after the 15th. All Commission payments are based on the amount of fees received by Vendasta, which for clarity does not include sales taxes or any third party fees received by Vendasta.
The amount of Commissions are as follows:
New Subscription Referrals (Recurring) For each Prospect referred by the Affiliate that purchases a Starter, Professional, or Premium subscription, Vendasta shall pay the Affiliate a recurring commission equal to twenty percent (20%) of the subscription fees actually paid by the Prospect. This commission shall be payable in perpetuity for as long as the referral remains an active, paying subscriber of a Vendasta subscription plan.
Legacy Referrals Affiliates with existing referrals captured prior to the implementation of the current program structure will continue to be paid based on the previous program commission rate(s) until those specific subscriptions expire or terminate. Any NEW referrals captured under the current program will be paid out based on the 20% perpetual recurring structure.
General Commission Terms Commission payments shall be calculated solely on subscription fees actually received by Vendasta from the applicable Prospect, exclusive of taxes, discounts, chargebacks, or refunds. Vendasta reserves the right to withhold or adjust commission payments in the event of non-payment or refund by the Prospect.
All Commissions are paid in U.S. Dollars (USD). Some payment methods may incur processing fees that may be deducted from Your Commissions payment. Your Commission balance must equal or exceed Fifty and 00/100 Dollars ($50.00) (USD) before You receive a payment from Vendasta.
If You are not a resident of the United States, Vendasta may withhold tax (including without limitation VAT) where required by applicable law. You are solely responsible for complying with all tax laws in Your respective jurisdiction(s).
Affiliates will not be paid any Commissions for payments made on Affiliate’s own user account(s). Affiliates are not permitted to open a Vendasta account under a fictitious name or the name of another person merely for the purpose of obtaining Commissions. Affiliates are not permitted to offer cash rebates or other monetary incentives to obtain Sales.
If payment for a Sold Account later results in a refund or chargeback, the Commission will be deducted from Your future Commissions. If Vendasta determines that any Sale was procured fraudulently or in violation of this Agreement, no Commission will be paid and Vendasta may terminate this Agreement immediately.
SECTION 5 – TERM AND TERMINATION
The term of this Agreement will begin when You click “I accept the Terms and Conditions” and your participation in the Affiliate program is approved. Your participation will continue month-to-month until terminated. Either Party may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, by giving thirty (30) days’ written notice.
In the event this Agreement is canceled due to Your breach, You immediately forfeit all Commissions. All provisions that, by their nature, should survive (limitations of liability, indemnity, arbitration), will survive termination.
SECTION 6 – ADDITIONAL REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
You represent and warrant that there are no prior or pending government investigations (FTC or otherwise) or private lawsuits against You relating to alleged intentional torts or violation of consumer protection or advertising laws. You are required to notify Vendasta within 24 hours if you become the subject of such an investigation.
