Effective Date: September 9, 2026 | Last Updated: September 9, 2026 | Version 1.0
These Affiliate Program Terms (the "Agreement") govern your participation in the ScriptCut Affiliate Program (the "Program"). The Program is operated by Visioneers LLC ("Visioneers," "ScriptCut," "we," "us," or "our"), a California limited liability company, which operates the ScriptCut application and website (the "Service").
By submitting an application to the Program, and by participating in the Program, you agree to this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not apply and do not participate. In this Agreement, "you" and "Affiliate" mean the individual or entity that applies to or participates in the Program.
This Agreement is in addition to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Where this Agreement conflicts with the Terms of Service on a matter specific to the Program, this Agreement controls.
To apply to or participate in the Program you must:
One person or entity may hold one affiliate account. Operating more than one account, or applying again after being declined or terminated without our written permission, is a breach of this Agreement.
Current ScriptCut employees and contractors, and members of their households, may not participate.
Applying does not make you an affiliate. We review every application and may approve or decline any application for any reason or for no reason, at our sole discretion, without giving reasons. We may also withdraw approval at any time in accordance with Section 24.
You become an affiliate only when we confirm your approval in writing and issue you a referral link. No commission accrues before that confirmation, including on any sign-up that happened before it.
You must give complete and accurate information in your application and keep it current, including your payout email address. We may refuse, suspend, or reverse payment where the information you gave us is false, incomplete, or out of date.
On approval we issue you a unique referral link and may issue a referral code. It is personal to you, and you may not sell, share, transfer, or sublicense it.
A sale is credited to you (a "Qualified Referral") only when all of the following are true:
Attribution is last-click. If a customer arrives through more than one affiliate link, the most recent affiliate link recorded before sign-up receives the credit. If a customer applies a referral code at sign-up, that code takes priority over any recorded link.
Self-referrals earn nothing. You may not earn commission on your own subscription, on a subscription for a business you own or control, or on a subscription bought by a person you have arranged to reimburse or reward for signing up.
For each Qualified Referral you earn 20% of the plan subscription fee that we actually receive and retain from that customer, for each payment that customer makes in the 12 months following the start of their first paid plan subscription. After those 12 months, no further commission accrues for that customer, whatever they go on to spend.
The commission base is the amount the customer actually pays for the plan subscription, excluding:
Where a customer upgrades, downgrades, or changes billing interval within their 12-month window, commission follows the amounts actually paid for the plan subscription during that window.
Commission is calculated and paid in United States dollars.
The following never earn commission:
A commission accrues when we receive a qualifying payment from a referred customer. It is held for 30 days from that date. This hold exists so that a payment that is reversed, disputed, or found to be fraudulent does not have to be recovered from you after it has been paid out.
After the hold, and provided the underlying payment has not been reversed, the commission becomes payable and is included in the next payment run.
Payment runs happen once a month. We pay commissions that became payable during a calendar month within 15 business days after the end of that month.
Minimum payout threshold: US$50. If your payable balance at the end of a month is under US$50, nothing is sent that month; the balance carries forward and is paid in the first month it reaches the threshold. If your account is closed with a payable balance under the threshold, we will pay that balance, less any amount you owe us, provided you have a valid PayPal account and payment is lawful.
Holding a commission during the hold period, or below the threshold, does not make it a debt due to you, and no interest accrues on any balance at any time.
PayPal is the only payment method in the Program. We do not pay by bank transfer, wire, ACH, SEPA, cheque, card, cryptocurrency, gift card, store credit, Wise, Payoneer, or any other method, and we are not obliged to introduce one.
You are responsible for:
We are entitled to treat the PayPal address on file as correct. If you give us the wrong address, a payment sent to it is treated as made, and we are not required to pay it again. If PayPal returns, holds, reverses, freezes, or refuses a payment for reasons connected with your account, your country, or your compliance with PayPal's own terms, that is a matter between you and PayPal. We will make one reasonable attempt to re-send a returned payment once you give us a working address.
PayPal is an independent third party. We do not control PayPal, its terms, its fees, its exchange rates, its identity checks, its country coverage, its account limits, or its decisions, and we are not liable for anything PayPal does or fails to do.
Commission is denominated and sent in US dollars. That is the only currency in the Program.
You bear every cost of receiving the money. Our obligation is discharged in full when we send the stated US dollar amount to your PayPal address. In particular:
We will not gross up a payment, reimburse a fee, or compensate for an exchange rate. If you want to avoid conversion costs, hold a US dollar balance in PayPal.
A working PayPal account is a condition of being paid. If you do not have one, cannot open one, will not use one, or your PayPal account is closed, limited, or unable to receive US dollars from us:
If a payable balance remains unpaid for 12 consecutive months solely because you have not provided a usable PayPal address, and we have made at least two attempts to contact you at the email address on file, we may close your affiliate account. Any balance then remaining is handled in accordance with applicable unclaimed property law; nothing in this Agreement is intended to override any right you have under that law.
Commission is only ever earned on money we actually keep.
Chargebacks and payment disputes. If a referred customer disputes a charge with their card issuer, bank, or payment provider, or the payment is otherwise reversed, returned, or unwound, the commission on that payment is reversed in full, whether or not the dispute is later resolved in our favour, and whether or not the commission has already been paid to you. If the charge is subsequently reinstated and we keep the money, we will reinstate the commission.
Refunds. ScriptCut operates a zero-refund policy, so refunds are rare. Where we do refund or credit a payment, whether voluntarily, as a goodwill gesture, or because law requires it, the commission on the refunded amount is reversed proportionally.
Fraud, abuse, and invalid sign-ups. We may reverse in full any commission connected with fraud, payment fraud, stolen payment credentials, self-referral, incentivised or artificial sign-ups, bot traffic, duplicate or fake accounts, or any breach of Section 17, whether committed by you or by anyone else.
Reversal window. We may reverse a commission at any time within 180 days of the payment it was calculated on, and at any time without limit where fraud, abuse, or breach of this Agreement is involved.
A reversal is applied first against your unpaid balance. If your unpaid balance does not cover it, Section 11 applies.
We may set off against any amount payable to you any amount you owe us under this Agreement, including reversed commissions, overpayments, duplicate payments, amounts paid in error, and amounts paid on a referral later found to be invalid.
If your unpaid balance is not enough to cover what you owe, the shortfall is repayable by you on demand within 30 days of our written request. If you do not repay it, we may recover it as a debt, and you are responsible for our reasonable costs of recovery, including reasonable legal fees, to the extent permitted by law.
These rights survive termination of this Agreement.
We will make reporting available to you showing referrals and commission. Reporting is provided for convenience, may lag, and may be estimated or provisional until a commission becomes payable.
Our records are the authoritative record of clicks, sign-ups, subscriptions, payments received, commissions, reversals, and payouts, and, absent manifest error, are final and binding.
Tracking depends on technology neither of us fully controls. We do not guarantee that every referral will be recorded, and we are not responsible for referrals that are not tracked, including where a customer blocks or clears cookies, uses a private browsing mode, an ad blocker, a tracking-prevention feature, a VPN, or a different device or browser than the one that clicked, where your link is altered, shortened, redirected, or stripped of its parameters, or where a customer signs up more than 60 days after clicking.
You must raise any query about a statement or a payment within 60 days of the statement or payment date. After 60 days the statement or payment is treated as accepted and may not be disputed.
Commission is paid gross. You are solely responsible for determining, reporting, and paying every tax that applies to what you earn, including income tax, self-employment tax, VAT, GST, and any social contribution, in every jurisdiction where you are liable.
Amounts stated are inclusive of any VAT, GST, or similar tax that you may be required to charge or account for. We will not pay any such tax in addition to the commission.
You must give us any tax documentation we reasonably request, including a valid IRS Form W-9 if you are a US person, or the appropriate Form W-8 if you are not. We may withhold payment until valid documentation is received, and we may withhold or deduct tax from a payment where we are required to do so by law. Where we are required to report a payment to a tax authority, we will do so.
If a tax authority assesses us for tax, interest, or a penalty because of information you gave us or failed to give us, you will reimburse us for it.
You are an independent contractor. Nothing in this Agreement creates an employment relationship, partnership, joint venture, franchise, or agency between you and us.
You have no authority to make any statement, representation, promise, warranty, or commitment on our behalf, to accept any obligation on our behalf, to sign anything on our behalf, to speak to press or regulators on our behalf, or to hold yourself out as our employee, agent, partner, reseller, or representative.
You are not entitled to any employee benefit, expense reimbursement, minimum payment, exclusivity, territory, or notice period. You control how, when, and where you promote, and you bear your own costs of doing so.
You may promote ScriptCut through channels you own or lawfully control, such as your website, blog, newsletter, video channel, podcast, social accounts, or course, provided you follow this Agreement and the law.
Everything you say about ScriptCut must be accurate, current, and your own honest opinion. You must not overstate what the Service does, invent features, quote prices or plan terms that are not current, promise results, or state or imply that we guarantee an outcome.
You are responsible for everything published on your channels in connection with the Program, including anything published by someone acting for you.
You must clearly and conspicuously disclose that you earn a commission wherever you promote ScriptCut, in a way a reasonable person will notice and understand, close to the recommendation itself and not hidden in a link, a hashtag cloud, a description that must be expanded, or a separate page.
This is a legal requirement, not a courtesy. Depending on where you and your audience are, it may be required by the US Federal Trade Commission's Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising (16 CFR Part 255), the UK Advertising Standards Authority and Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations, EU consumer protection law, and equivalent rules elsewhere. You must also follow the disclosure rules of every platform you post on.
Failure to disclose is a material breach of this Agreement and grounds for immediate termination and reversal of commission.
You must not do any of the following, directly or through anyone else:
Any of the above is a material breach. We may immediately terminate you, reverse and withhold all commission connected with the conduct, and pursue any other remedy available to us.
While you are an approved affiliate in good standing, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the ScriptCut name, logo, screenshots, and marketing materials we supply, solely to promote ScriptCut under this Agreement and in line with any brand guidance we give you.
You must not alter, distort, recolour, animate, or combine our logo with other marks; use our marks in a way that suggests you are us, that we endorse your other products, or that we have a partnership beyond this Program; or claim any ownership of our marks.
All rights in our marks, the Service, and our materials remain ours. This licence ends automatically when your participation ends, and you must then stop using our marks and remove or deactivate your referral links within 30 days.
You keep ownership of your own content. You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to reference your name, channel name, and logo, and to quote or link to content you have published about ScriptCut, in order to administer and promote the Program. You may withdraw that licence for future use by writing to us.
You are responsible for your channels, including their lawfulness, their accessibility, and any third-party rights in what you publish.
You may receive non-public information about us, including commission structures, unreleased features, roadmap, metrics, and customer data. You must keep it confidential, use it only to participate in the Program, and not disclose it without our written consent. This obligation continues for three years after your participation ends, and indefinitely for anything that is a trade secret.
You must not disclose the identity, contact details, or account details of any ScriptCut customer, including someone you referred.
You must comply with all privacy and data protection law that applies to you, including the GDPR, the UK GDPR, and the CCPA and CPRA where applicable, and you must maintain your own privacy notice where the law requires one.
You must not collect personal data on our behalf, present yourself as collecting data for us, or ask anyone for their ScriptCut password or account credentials. If you email a list, you must have a lawful basis to do so and honour every opt-out.
We process your own information in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
You represent that you are not located in, ordinarily resident in, or organised under the laws of any country or territory subject to comprehensive US sanctions, and that you are not listed on any US, UK, EU, or UN restricted-party or sanctions list, and are not owned or controlled by anyone who is.
We may withhold or cancel any payment where making it would, in our reasonable judgement, breach sanctions, anti-money-laundering, counter-terrorist-financing, or export control law, and we may report as required by law.
You must comply with all applicable anti-bribery and anti-corruption law, including the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the UK Bribery Act.
We may change the Program at any time, including its commission rate, commission duration, eligibility rules, attribution window, payout threshold, payment schedule, and reporting, and we may suspend or end the Program entirely.
We will give at least 30 days' notice of a material change to your commission rate or commission duration, by email to the address on file or by notice in the Program. A change to the commission rate or duration applies only going forward, from the effective date of the change, and does not reduce commission already accrued on payments received before that date.
Other changes to this Agreement take effect when published, unless we say otherwise. Your continued participation after a change takes effect is your acceptance of it. If you do not accept a change, your remedy is to stop participating and ask us to close your affiliate account; commission already accrued is then paid under Section 6.
If we end the Program, we will give at least 30 days' notice and pay commission accrued up to the end date, subject to the hold, the threshold, and any reversal.
By you: you may leave the Program at any time by writing to us. We will pay commission accrued to that date under Section 6.
By us, without cause: we may end your participation at any time on written notice, for any reason. We will pay commission accrued to the termination date under Section 6.
By us, for cause, with immediate effect: we may suspend or terminate you immediately, and withhold and reverse all unpaid commission, where we reasonably believe you have breached Section 16 or Section 17, engaged in fraud or dishonesty, brought our name into disrepute, or breached any other material term and, where the breach can be fixed, failed to fix it within 10 days of our notice. Withholding under this paragraph is limited to commission connected with the conduct, unless the conduct is fraud, in which case it applies to the whole balance.
Inactivity: if your account produces no Qualified Referral for 12 consecutive months, we may close it on notice and pay any payable balance under Section 6.
On termination your referral link is deactivated, your licence under Section 18 ends, and you must stop presenting yourself as an affiliate. Sections 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 20, 26, 27, 28, 29, and 30 survive.
We make no representation, promise, or guarantee that you will earn anything. Any figure, example, or projection we publish, including any example in our marketing or FAQ, is illustrative only and is not a promise of results. Your earnings depend entirely on referrals that qualify and on payments we actually receive and retain.
The Program is non-exclusive. We may run other affiliate, referral, reseller, partner, or marketing arrangements, sell directly, discount, and market in the same channels you use, without any obligation to you.
The Program, the Service, the referral link, and all tracking and reporting are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranty of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranty that tracking will be accurate, uninterrupted, or error-free.
We do not warrant that the Service will remain available, that its features, plans, or prices will stay the same, or that any referred customer will subscribe, renew, or stay.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost commission, lost revenue, lost opportunity, lost data, or loss of goodwill, however caused and on any theory of liability, even if we have been advised of the possibility.
Our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Program and this Agreement will not exceed the greater of (a) the total commission actually paid to you in the 12 months immediately before the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) US$100.
Nothing in this Agreement excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for death or personal injury caused by negligence. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations; in those jurisdictions our liability is limited to the fullest extent permitted by law.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Visioneers LLC and its members, officers, employees, contractors, and agents from and against any claim, demand, investigation, damage, loss, liability, cost, and expense, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or related to:
Talk to us first. Before starting any formal proceeding, you agree to contact us at support@scriptcut.io and to try to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days.
Binding arbitration. If the dispute is not resolved informally, you and Visioneers agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Program will be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its applicable rules. Arbitration will take place in Los Angeles County, California, or at another location you and we agree. The arbitrator's decision is final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. The Federal Arbitration Act governs this provision.
Class action waiver. You and Visioneers agree that any arbitration or court proceeding will be conducted on an individual basis only, and not as a class, consolidated, or representative action. If this waiver is found unenforceable, this entire arbitration provision is null and void.
Opt out. You may opt out of this arbitration provision by writing to support@scriptcut.io within 30 days of first accepting this Agreement. Your notice must include your name, the email address on your application, and a clear statement that you decline arbitration. Opting out does not affect any other part of this Agreement.
Exceptions. Either party may bring an eligible claim in small claims court, and either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to protect its intellectual property rights or confidential information.
Governing law: this Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Subject to Section 29, the state and federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California have exclusive jurisdiction.
Entire agreement: this Agreement, together with our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, is the entire agreement between you and us about the Program and replaces any earlier discussion, representation, or arrangement about it.
Severability: if any provision is found unenforceable, it is severed and the rest remains in full force.
No waiver: our failure to enforce any right or provision is not a waiver of it.
Assignment: you may not assign or transfer this Agreement, or your affiliate account, without our prior written consent. We may assign it, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
Force majeure: neither party is liable for a failure to perform caused by an event beyond its reasonable control, though this does not excuse an obligation to pay an amount that is properly due.
Notices: we may give you notice by email to the address on your application or by posting in the Program; you give us notice by email to the address in Section 31. Notice by email is treated as received on the day it is sent.
Language: this Agreement is written in English. Any translation is for convenience only, and the English version controls.
Headings: headings are for convenience and do not affect interpretation.
