Affiliate Terms
Rules for the WOOHL affiliate program: 20% recurring commission, 60-day cookie, 45-day hold, payouts, clawbacks, marketing rules and disclosure.
In plain English
- 20% of every payment, for as long as your referral stays subscribed.
- Commission is approved 45 days after each payment and paid monthly — no minimum.
- Refunds and chargebacks reverse the related commission.
- Be honest, disclose your link, and don’t bid on “WOOHL” in paid search.
1. Agreement
By applying to or participating in the WOOHL Affiliate Program (“Program”), you agree to these Affiliate Terms (“Terms”) and our general Terms of Service. WOOHL (“we”, “us”) may update these Terms; we will notify active affiliates of material changes. Continued participation after changes constitutes acceptance.
New referral terms apply only to referrals made after the effective date of a change — see Section 4 (Grandfathering).
2. Eligibility
- Open to WooCommerce agencies, consultants, content creators, complementary product vendors, and existing WOOHL customers.
- You must be 18+ and able to enter a binding agreement.
- Applications are manually reviewed. We may approve or reject any application at our sole discretion.
- Self-referral is prohibited. You may not earn commission on accounts you own, control, or create for yourself or related parties.
3. Commission
| Rate | 20% recurring on all eligible plans (monthly, annual, founding, enterprise) |
|---|---|
| Duration at launch | Lifetime — commission continues while the referred customer maintains a paid subscription |
| Duration changes | We may change the default to 12 months only for new referrals. Referrals attributed before that change keep lifetime terms (grandfathered). |
| Cookie window | 60 days from click to qualifying signup/payment |
| Hold period | 45 days after each qualifying payment before commission is approved (refund/chargeback protection) |
| Minimum payout | None — all approved commissions are paid on the monthly payout cycle |
| Payout methods | PayPal, Wise, or bank transfer (you choose; fees may apply) |
| Payout schedule | Monthly, for all commissions approved before the payout date |
Eligible plans: all current and future WOOHL subscription plans unless we explicitly exclude a plan in writing.
Enterprise / custom deals: commission applies at 20% of amounts actually paid by the referred customer.
4. Grandfathering (commission duration changes)
If we change the Program from lifetime recurring commission to a capped duration (e.g. first 12 months only):
- Existing attributed customers (signed up before the change date): the affiliate keeps lifetime 20% while they remain subscribed.
- New customers (signed up on or after the change date): the affiliate earns 20% for the active cap period only (e.g. 12 monthly payments).
We will publish the effective date and notify active affiliates in advance where practicable.
5. Refunds, cancellations & clawback
- If a referred customer receives a full or partial refund or chargeback, the related commission (pending or paid) may be deducted or clawed back.
- Commissions remain pending during the 45-day hold and the customer’s refund-eligibility period under our 90+ Guarantee.
- If a customer cancels after the hold period, you keep commission already earned; no commission accrues on future periods after cancellation.
6. Tracking & attribution
- Attribution uses cookies and platform tracking. The last valid click within the 60-day window generally receives credit.
- We are not responsible for lost attribution due to cookie blockers, cleared cookies, cross-device browsing, or technical limitations.
- Fraudulent, artificial, or incentivized traffic (fake signups, bot clicks) voids commission and may terminate your account.
7. Marketing rules
You may
- Publish honest reviews, comparisons, and tutorials
- Share your affiliate link on your website, social media, email to your own opted-in audience, and client communications where appropriate
You may not
- Bid on “WOOHL” or confusingly similar trademarks in paid search without written permission
- Use fake, unauthorized, or misleading coupon codes
- Make false or unverifiable claims (e.g. guaranteed PageSpeed for stores we haven’t audited)
- Send spam or use purchased or scraped email lists
- Impersonate WOOHL or suggest you’re an employee or official partner unless we agree in writing
- Cookie-stuffing, pop-under abuse, or other deceptive tracking practices
Disclosure (required)
You must clearly disclose your affiliate relationship wherever you promote WOOHL (e.g. “Affiliate link — I may earn a commission”). This satisfies FTC and similar disclosure requirements in your jurisdiction.
8. Brand assets
We may provide logos and marketing materials. Use them only as provided; do not alter the WOOHL logo or imply endorsement beyond the affiliate relationship.
9. Tax
- You are responsible for taxes on your commission income in your country.
- US affiliates: we may require a completed W-9 (or equivalent) before payout above IRS thresholds.
- International affiliates: you declare and remit your own taxes; we may request tax identification where required by law.
10. Termination
- Either party may terminate at any time.
- We may suspend or terminate your account immediately for Terms violations, fraud, or brand harm.
- On termination, unpaid approved commissions will be paid on the next cycle unless terminated for cause (fraud/violation).
- Grandfathered commission rights on customers attributed before termination continue only if we terminate without cause; termination for fraud or violation forfeits all pending and future commission.
11. Limitation of liability
The Program is provided “as is.” Our total liability related to the Program is limited to unpaid commissions legitimately earned and not clawed back. We may modify, pause, or end the Program with reasonable notice to active affiliates.
