This Affiliate Program Agreement Template outlines the roles and responsibilities of an independent affiliate to sell your products or services through an affiliate link or discount code and receive an affiliate commission. The Affiliate Program contract template makes it clear how and when your affiliates will be paid and what your expectations are as the brand/ company for marketing, disclosures, and your general working relationship with an independent affiliate sales team.

This template is perfect for:  

  • Digital product affiliate programs

  • Physical product/e-commerce affiliate programs

  • Online course affiliate programs

  • Ticket sales affiliate programs

  • Online event affiliate programs

  •  *Pretty much any type of affiliate program that may not be covered by a third-party affiliate software program (and even if you ARE using third-party software, make sure that you have outlined what your “clubhouse” rules are because affiliates represent YOU and YOUR brand -- make sure that interaction is on-brand!

This agreement contains clauses covering: 

  • affiliate contact details (what happens if you have a bum email)

  • commission fee (rate,  minimum payout,  scheduling)

  • what affiliates can and can’t post

  • how you can kick affiliates out if they have prohibited content

  • FTC disclosures and other required influencer/affiliate marketing disclaimers

  • how affiliates can use your intellectual property (and how they can’t)

  • protection against phishing/cybersquatting domains

  • rules against spam via email or online groups/forums

  • independent contractor relationship

  • indemnification

  • Intellectual property protection 

  • force majeure clause

  • term/termination

  • disclaimers

  • arbitration/choice of venue

  • Plus ALL the "legalese" to protect YOU

Suggested Workflow: 

You can either send this out to affiliates via e-sign portal or CRM system, or you can set up a signature portal where affiliates need to sign and date their acceptance before submitting information to participate in an affiliate program. 

Alternatively, you can set up a clickwrap page in the affiliate setup process (ideally -- affiliates will see the terms of the agreement in more than one place) (see product image for examples)

Deliver a successful campaign for both of you!
