Calniq Partner Program Agreement

1. Definitions

"Calniq" refers to the booking platform available at calniq.com.
"Partner" or "You" refers to any individual or entity enrolled in the Calniq Partner Program.
"Referred Client" refers to a new Calniq customer who registered using your unique referral link and has never previously had a Calniq account.
"Commission" refers to the recurring revenue share paid to you for each qualifying payment made by a Referred Client.
"Payout Threshold" refers to the minimum commission balance ($100) required before a payout is issued.

2. Eligibility and Enrollment

To participate in the Partner Program, you must:

• Be at least 18 years of age
• Have a valid account on Calniq
• Agree to these Terms in full
• Provide accurate and complete payout information

Calniq reserves the right to approve or reject partner applications at its sole discretion, and to terminate any partnership at any time for violations of these Terms.

3. How the Program Works

Upon enrollment, you receive a unique referral link in the format calniq.com/register?ref=PART-XXXXXX. When a new customer registers through your link, they are attributed to you as a Referred Client.

Attribution Rules

• Attribution is set at the time of registration and is permanent — it cannot be changed after the fact.
• If a visitor clicks multiple referral links, the first link is recorded.
• Attribution requires the client to register in the same browser session where they clicked your link.
• There is no expiration window on attribution — a client who clicks your link and registers days later is still attributed to you.

4. Commission Structure

Commission is calculated as 20% of the gross invoice amount (before any taxes) for each qualifying payment.

Qualifying Payments

• Monthly or annual subscription payments (Starter, Pro)
• Add-on purchases (Extra Project, Extra User, White Label) made by Referred Clients

Non-Qualifying Events

• Trial periods (no payment, no commission)
• Failed or refunded payments
• Payments made during an active money-back guarantee window (14 days from first payment)
• Payments from clients who registered with the same email address as yours

5. Payment Terms

Pending Period

Commissions remain in Pending status for 14 days after the invoice payment date. This corresponds to Calniq's money-back guarantee window. A commission becomes eligible for payout only after this period expires without a refund being issued.

Payout Schedule

Payouts are processed once per month for all commissions that have cleared the pending period and whose cumulative balance has reached the minimum threshold of $100. If your balance is below $100, it carries over to the next month.

Payout Methods

We currently support the following payout methods:

• PayPal — payment sent to your PayPal email
• Wise — payment sent to your Wise email or username
• USDT (TRC-20) — payment sent to your wallet address

Taxes

You are responsible for reporting and paying any applicable taxes on commissions you receive. Calniq does not withhold taxes on partner payments.

6. Prohibited Activities

Self-Referral

You may not refer yourself. This includes registering a second Calniq account using your own referral link, or referring any account that you control, co-own, or have a financial interest in. Calniq has tools to detect unauthorized referral activity. Confirmed self-referrals result in permanent, irrevocable account termination.

Misleading Promotion

You may not:

• Make false or exaggerated claims about Calniq's features, pricing, or performance
• Impersonate Calniq or represent yourself as an official Calniq employee or representative without written authorization
• Use spam, unsolicited messages, or deceptive advertising techniques
• Use "Calniq" or any confusingly similar name as a keyword, ad copy, or display text in any paid advertising system (including Google Ads, Meta Ads, or any other ad platform) without prior written approval
• Create websites or content designed to mislead users about the nature of your affiliation with Calniq

Other Prohibited Conduct

• Attempting to manipulate tracking, attribution, or commission systems
• Offering cash, discounts, or other incentives to clients for signing up through your link without Calniq's written consent
• Using Calniq's brand assets outside the scope permitted in Section 8

7. Commission Termination

Commissions for a Referred Client stop accruing when that client's Calniq subscription is permanently cancelled and their account becomes inactive. Commissions already earned and past the pending period will be paid out on the next scheduled payout cycle.

If Calniq terminates your partner account due to a violation of these Terms, all pending and unpaid commissions are forfeited.

8. Intellectual Property

You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use Calniq's name and logo solely for the purpose of promoting Calniq through your referral link. This license does not permit you to:

• Modify or create derivative versions of Calniq's brand assets
• Use Calniq's brand in a way that could imply an official partnership or endorsement beyond the partner program
• Register domain names containing "Calniq" or confusingly similar terms

This license terminates automatically if your partner account is suspended or terminated.

9. Program Changes

Calniq reserves the right to modify the commission rate, payout threshold, payout schedule, or any other aspect of this program with 30 days' written notice to active partners. Notice will be sent to the email address on file for your account. Continued participation after the notice period constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

In the case of material adverse changes (e.g., commission rate reduction), you may terminate your participation within the 30-day notice period and receive all earned commissions that have cleared the pending period.

10. Term and Termination

This Agreement is effective from the date you accept it and continues until terminated by either party.

• You may terminate your participation at any time by contacting us at [email protected]
• Calniq may terminate your participation at any time, with 30 days' notice for non-cause terminations, or immediately for violations of these Terms

Upon termination for non-cause reasons, you will receive any earned commissions that have cleared the pending period and meet the payout threshold.

11. Confidentiality

Both parties agree to keep confidential any non-public information received from the other party in connection with this program, including but not limited to commission rates, client data, and business strategies. This obligation survives termination of this Agreement.

12. Relationship of the Parties

You are an independent contractor, not an employee, agent, or legal representative of Calniq. You have no authority to bind Calniq contractually or make representations on its behalf. You are responsible for your own taxes, insurance, and business expenses.

13. Limitation of Liability

Calniq's liability to you under this Agreement is limited to the commission amounts owed to you. Calniq is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your participation in the program, including but not limited to lost profits or business opportunities.

14. Governing Law

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with applicable international commercial law. Any disputes shall first be attempted to be resolved amicably through direct communication. If unresolved within 30 days, disputes may be submitted to binding arbitration.
