1. Introduction
This Affiliate Agreement (the "Agreement") is between you (the "Affiliate", "you", or "your") and 22 Apps, Inc., a British Columbia company doing business as SyncSuite ("SyncSuite", "we", "us", or "our"). By applying to and participating in the SyncSuite Affiliate Program (the "Program"), you agree to these terms. The Program operates alongside our Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and Earnings Disclaimer, all of which are incorporated by reference.
2. Eligibility & Approval
Participation in the Program is by application and is at SyncSuite's sole discretion. You must be at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into this Agreement. We may decline or revoke approval at any time. You represent that all information you submit in your application and your account is accurate and current.
3. Commissions
- Rate: 30% of net subscription revenue collected from a referred Customer.
- Duration: commissions are paid for up to 12 months from the referred Customer's first paid subscription billing.
- Eligible plans: Pro and Agency. Free plans do not generate commissions until and unless they upgrade.
- Net subscription revenue means the recurring subscription fee actually collected from the referred Customer, excluding sales tax, VAT, GST, payment-processor fees, refunds, and chargebacks. Usage-based fees (AI, SMS, voice, storage overages) and Sub-Account overage fees are not commissionable.
- Tracking window: a referral is attributed to your link via a 60-day first-party cookie. The commission attaches to the Customer who signs up within that window using your link.
- Refund / chargeback clawback: if a referred Customer obtains a refund, charges back, or otherwise reverses payment within 60 days of the originating sale, the corresponding commission is reversed and may be deducted from future payouts.
- Last-touch attribution: if multiple Affiliates have valid cookies for the same Customer at signup, the most recent valid Affiliate cookie is credited.
4. Payouts
- Cadence: monthly, paid no earlier than 60 days after the originating sale clears, to allow the refund window to close.
- Minimum threshold: $50 USD. Balances below the threshold roll over to the next payout cycle.
- Currency: U.S. Dollars. If your bank or chosen payout rail receives funds in a non-USD currency, the exchange rate, FX spread, intermediary-bank fees, and any related currency-conversion losses are your responsibility; SyncSuite's obligation is satisfied when USD funds leave our payout account.
- Payment method: as offered by SyncSuite from time to time (for example, ACH, wire, or PayPal). You are responsible for any payment-method fees deducted by the rail you select.
- Tax forms: before your first payout, you must provide a completed and signed IRS Form W-9 (U.S. persons) or IRS Form W-8BEN / W-8BEN-E (non-U.S. persons), and any equivalent form required by your jurisdiction. We may withhold tax where law requires.
- Inactive accounts: if your Affiliate account is inactive for 12 consecutive months and your balance is below the minimum threshold, the unpaid balance may be forfeited.
5. Marketing Restrictions
To protect the brand, the customer experience, and your fellow Affiliates, the following are prohibited:
- No paid-search bidding on the term "SyncSuite", "Sync Suite", "syncsuite.co", "22 Apps", or any close variation, misspelling, or competitor-comparison phrase containing those terms (including on Google, Bing, Microsoft, Meta, TikTok, YouTube, and similar networks). Bidding on generic non-brand keywords is allowed.
- No direct linking from a paid ad to syncsuite.co; you must drive paid traffic to a landing page you own.
- No coupon, discount, deal, cashback, or promo-code sites without our prior written approval.
- No fake review sites, AI-generated review farms, manipulated comparison sites, or sites whose primary purpose is to capture branded search traffic.
- No domain squatting or trademark-infringing domains (including domains that contain "syncsuite", confusingly similar marks, or our logo).
- No spam. All email outreach must comply with CAN-SPAM, CASL, and equivalent laws. SMS outreach must comply with TCPA, A2P 10DLC, and equivalent laws. Bulk unsolicited messaging is grounds for immediate termination and forfeiture of unpaid commissions.
- No false or unsubstantiated earnings claims, income guarantees, or "get rich" pitches. See our Earnings Disclaimer.
- No rebates, kickbacks, or incentives to referred Customers. You may not offer your own cash rebate, gift card, free service, or other inducement to a referred Customer in exchange for using your affiliate link or completing a paid signup.
- No commission disclosure manipulation. You may not publicly publish the specific commission rate or other confidential terms of this Program, or misrepresent the rate.
- Privacy disclosures on your own properties. Your tracking link sets a 60-day first-party cookie on your visitor's device. If you operate a website, app, or marketing channel that drives affiliate traffic, you must maintain a privacy policy and (where required) a cookie / consent notice on that property that discloses the use of affiliate tracking and any analytics or advertising tags you run alongside it. You are responsible for compliance with GDPR / UK GDPR / ePrivacy / CCPA and equivalent laws applicable to your visitors.
- Mandatory disclosure. You must conspicuously disclose your affiliate relationship on every page, post, video, or email containing an affiliate link, in accordance with the U.S. FTC Endorsement Guides, Canada's Competition Act, and equivalent rules in your jurisdiction.
6. Anti-Self-Referral
You may not earn a commission on your own SyncSuite account, on any account you own or control (directly or indirectly), or on any account belonging to a member of your household, an entity you have signing authority over, or a business you co-own. Self-referrals will be reversed and may result in termination from the Program.
7. Trademark & Marketing Materials License
While your Affiliate account is active and in good standing, SyncSuite grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use SyncSuite's name, logo, screenshots, and approved promotional creative solely to promote the Platform under this Agreement. You may not modify the SyncSuite logo or marks, combine them with other marks, or use them in a way that suggests endorsement of products other than SyncSuite. The license terminates automatically when your participation ends, and you must remove our marks promptly.
SyncSuite may provide reference promotional copy and creative. Use of provided materials is encouraged but not required. Any custom creative you produce must be truthful, must not violate the restrictions in Section 5, and must not imply that you are an employee, agent, or partner of SyncSuite.
8. Relationship of the Parties
You are an independent contractor. Nothing in this Agreement creates an employment, joint-venture, partnership, agency, or franchise relationship. You have no authority to bind SyncSuite, and you must not represent yourself as doing so. You are responsible for your own taxes, business registration, and expenses.
9. Term & Termination
This Agreement runs indefinitely while your Affiliate account is active. Either party may terminate at any time, with or without cause, by written notice (including in-platform notice or email). On termination:
- The trademark and marketing-materials license in Section 7 ends immediately.
- You will stop using affiliate links, marks, and any SyncSuite-provided creative within 7 days.
- Unpaid commissions earned for cleared sales prior to termination remain payable on the next regular payout cycle, subject to clawbacks and the minimum threshold.
- If termination is for cause (for example, breach of Section 5 or 6, fraud, or violation of law), accrued unpaid commissions may be forfeited.
10. Modifications
SyncSuite may modify the Program, including commission rates, attribution rules, restrictions, and payout policies, with reasonable notice (typically 30 days). Modifications apply to commissions earned after the effective date; commissions already accrued are unaffected.
11. No Earnings Guarantee
Affiliate earnings depend on your effort, audience, traffic quality, and many other factors. We make no guarantee of any specific commission level. See our Earnings Disclaimer.
12. Limitation of Liability & Indemnification
To the maximum extent permitted by law, SyncSuite's aggregate liability arising out of this Agreement is limited to the greater of $100 USD or the commissions paid to you in the three months preceding the claim. SyncSuite is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages.
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold SyncSuite harmless from any claim arising out of (i) your marketing activities, (ii) your breach of this Agreement, (iii) your violation of applicable law, or (iv) any content on websites or properties you control that promotes the Program.
13. Dispute Resolution & Governing Law
This Agreement is governed by the laws of British Columbia, Canada, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Disputes that cannot be resolved informally are resolved by binding arbitration administered by ICDR Canada in Vancouver, British Columbia, in English. Both parties waive any right to participate in a class action or class arbitration.
14. General Provisions
This Agreement (together with the documents incorporated by reference) is the entire agreement between you and SyncSuite regarding the Program. If any provision is unenforceable, the remainder remains in effect. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign this Agreement; we may assign in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. Notices to SyncSuite go to [email protected].
