Bookora Partner Program — Payout & Referral Terms

Effective date: 21 April 2026 Last updated: 21 April 2026

These Payout and Referral Terms (the “Payout Terms”) describe how compensation works under the Bookora Partner Program (the “Program”) operated by Bookora (“Bookora”, “we”, “us”, “our”). They supplement the Partner Program Terms of Service and the Partner Privacy Addendum, and apply once you have been approved as a partner and have received a tracking link or referral code from us.

Until you are approved in writing and issued a tracking link, no payout is owed. Submitting an application does not create any right to compensation. Audience-size estimators, signals, or “priority review” language displayed on the application flow are motivational only — they are not offers.

Because we deliberately tailor compensation to each partner, these Payout Terms set out the framework and the rules; individual rates, formats (commission, flat fee, bonus, mixed), campaign windows, and exclusivity are agreed in a separate, per-partner commercial agreement (“Commercial Agreement”). If there is a conflict, the Commercial Agreement controls for the partner and engagement it covers.

1. How compensation is structured

Compensation is agreed privately with each approved partner. It may take one or more of the following forms:

1.1. Revenue share / commission on paid Bookora subscriptions from users who signed up through your tracking link and stayed through the validation window described in Section 3.

1.2. Flat fee for a specific deliverable (for example a named Reel, a dedicated newsletter, a podcast episode read).

1.3. Hybrid — a flat fee plus a smaller revenue share.

1.4. Bonuses tied to mutually agreed performance thresholds, launch windows, or creative milestones.

1.5. In-kind benefits, where you explicitly agree (for example, an upgraded Bookora plan for your own practice, or early access to new features).

We do not publish a rate card. Rates depend on audience fit, audience size, format, market, exclusivity, and the creative brief.

2. The audience offer

As part of every current partnership, approved partners can share a 50% discount for the first three (3) months on eligible Bookora paid plans to their audience. The specific plans, markets, and any redemption cap are set in the Commercial Agreement or the campaign brief. This offer is an offer we make to your audience — it is not part of your own payout.

3. How we validate a referral

3.1. Attribution. A referral is attributed to you when a user arrives at Bookora through your tracking link or applies your referral code within the cookie window described in the Cookie Policy, and then converts to a paid Bookora subscription.

3.2. Last-click wins. Where multiple valid partner links touch the same user, the last Bookora-issued partner link before conversion receives the attribution, except where a Commercial Agreement explicitly says otherwise.

3.3. Validation window. A referral becomes validated when the referred user has been a paying customer in good standing for at least ninety (90) consecutive days (or the period set in the Commercial Agreement) and has not requested a refund, charged back, or cancelled within the free-trial window.

3.4. Holdback. Before payout, we apply an anti-fraud holdback period of up to sixty (60) days from the end of the validation window to allow chargebacks and fraud reviews to settle.

3.5. Ineligible referrals. The following do not count as validated referrals and are not eligible for payout:

Sign-ups made by you or from households, employees, or entities you control (self-referrals).
Sign-ups associated with refund, chargeback, or cancellation before the validation window closes.
Sign-ups we reasonably believe were generated by bots, click farms, incentivized traffic, cookie stuffing, typo-squat domains, adware, or unauthorized paid search on Bookora’s brand terms.
Sign-ups that relate to Bookora accounts we terminate for breach of the Bookora product terms.
Sign-ups that would cause us to violate applicable law or a platform’s rules.

3.6. Our measurement is authoritative. We use our own server-side tracking and analytics as the record of truth for clicks and conversions. We will answer reasonable questions about your numbers through the partner portal or partners@bookora.me.

4. Payout currency, thresholds, and timing

4.1. Currency. Payouts are made in U.S. dollars (USD) by default, unless a different currency is agreed in your Commercial Agreement. Any currency conversion is at the prevailing rate we pay our bank at the time of payout; we do not act as a foreign-exchange service.

4.2. Minimum payout threshold. The default minimum threshold is $50 (fifty U.S. dollars). Validated earnings below the threshold roll over into the next month. If your account stays below the threshold for 12 consecutive months and you remain an inactive partner, we may close the balance on written notice; we will pay any balance above legal minimums owed.

4.3. Payout cycle. Default cycle is monthly, net 30 — that is, we pay by the end of the calendar month following the month in which the referral completes its holdback under Section 3.4. Campaign-specific flat fees are paid net 30 from the delivery and acceptance of the deliverable.

4.4. Payment method. We pay by bank transfer (SEPA where available), or by the method specified in the Commercial Agreement. You are responsible for providing accurate, up-to-date banking information; we are not liable for payments sent to outdated details.

4.5. Payment fees. We cover our own banking fees. You cover any receiving-bank fees, correspondent-bank fees, or currency-conversion spread applied by your own bank.

5. Taxes, invoices, and regulated markets

5.1. You are responsible for all taxes, social contributions, and regulatory filings on compensation we pay you, in every jurisdiction that applies to you. You will give us any tax form or ID we reasonably request (W-9, W-8BEN / BEN-E, VAT-ID, tax residency certificate, or equivalent).

5.2. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, amounts we pay are inclusive of applicable VAT, GST, sales tax, or equivalent. Where local law requires us to withhold tax at source, we will do so and the net paid is final.

5.3. If you are VAT-registered and in a jurisdiction that requires a partner invoice, you will issue Bookora a valid invoice before payout; if your jurisdiction operates a reverse-charge or self-billing regime, we will follow that regime.

5.4. Bookora will not pay partners who appear on, or are owned or controlled by persons on, any United Nations, European Union, United Kingdom, United States (OFAC SDN), or other applicable restricted-party list, or who are located in a country or territory subject to comprehensive sanctions.

6. Chargebacks, refunds, and clawbacks

6.1. If a referred user refunds, charges back, or cancels within the validation and holdback windows, the corresponding referral is reversed and the amount is either (a) deducted from your next payout or, (b) if your balance is insufficient, invoiced back to you and due within thirty (30) days of the invoice.

6.2. We may also claw back amounts paid for referrals we later identify as fraudulent or otherwise ineligible under Section 3.5, within twelve (12) months of the payout.

6.3. We will not claw back amounts in a way that would contravene a specific consumer-protection or similar mandatory law that applies to you.

7. Disputes about payouts

7.1. If you disagree with a statement or a specific amount, email partners@bookora.me within sixty (60) days of the payout date that is in dispute, with enough detail (campaign, dates, referral IDs) to let us investigate. After sixty days the statement is deemed accepted except in the case of fraud or manifest error.

7.2. We will respond with our position within thirty (30) days of a complete dispute. If we disagree and cannot resolve in good faith, the dispute is handled under the governing law and courts clauses of the Partner Program Terms of Service.

8. Changes to these Payout Terms

8.1. We may change these Payout Terms from time to time. Material changes (for example changes to the minimum threshold, payout cycle, validation window, or holdback period) will be notified to active partners by email or in the partner portal at least fourteen (14) days before they take effect, or longer where required by law. Non-material changes take effect on publication.

8.2. Changes apply to referrals that convert after the effective date. Referrals already validated, or in the validation or holdback window at the time of the change, continue under the prior terms.

8.3. If you do not accept a material change, your remedy is to stop participating in the Program and we will pay out any earned, validated balance on the next scheduled cycle in the usual way.

9. Program terms, privacy, and cookies

These Payout Terms are part of the Partner Program Terms of Service and incorporate its sections on confidentiality, no self-referral, anti-fraud, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnity, governing law, and changes.

Our processing of the personal and financial data we collect to pay you is covered in the Partner Privacy Addendum.

Tracking-link attribution is a functional / first-party use and does not depend on analytics cookie consent. See the Cookie Policy for details.
