This Affiliate Program Agreement (“Agreement”) governs your participation in the Fold Affiliate Program (“Program”), operated by Fold Works, Inc. (“Fold”, “we”, “our”, or “us”). By applying to the Program, or by continuing to participate after being approved, you (“Affiliate”, “you”, or “your”) agree to this Agreement.
This Agreement is separate from and in addition to Fold’s general Terms of Service. If you use Fold as a buyer, seller, or any other kind of user, the Terms of Service continues to govern that use. This Agreement applies specifically to your participation in the Affiliate Program. If anything in this Agreement conflicts with the Terms of Service on a matter specific to the Program, this Agreement controls.
We may modify this Agreement at any time, as described in Section 13 (Program Modifications). Continued participation in the Program after a change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Agreement.
The Fold Affiliate Program allows approved partners (“Affiliates”) to earn commissions by referring new users, sellers, and subscribers to Fold. Affiliates promote Fold using a unique referral link or code and earn commissions when referred users take qualifying actions on the platform, as described in Section 5 (Commission Structure).
Participation in the Program is voluntary, and Fold may offer, withhold, or discontinue the Program, or any part of it, at its sole discretion.
To participate in the Program, you must:
Be at least 18 years old, or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction;
Have a Fold account in good standing, if applicable;
Provide accurate and complete information in your affiliate application; and
Agree to comply with this Agreement and Fold’s Terms of Service.
Fold may decline or revoke eligibility for any applicant or Affiliate at its sole discretion, including for reasons not explicitly listed in this Agreement.
Participation in the Program is not automatic. Every application is reviewed by the Fold team, and Fold may approve, deny, or place conditions on any application at its sole discretion.
Submitting an application does not guarantee acceptance into the Program.
Fold may request additional information before making a decision.
Approved Affiliates receive a unique referral link or code to use for promotion.
Fold may revoke Affiliate status at any time, as described in Section 12 (Suspension or Termination).
Referrals are tracked through your unique affiliate link or code. It is your responsibility to:
Use your assigned link or code correctly when promoting Fold;
Ensure that referral links are not altered, obscured, or misrepresented; and
Understand that Fold’s tracking system is the sole authority for determining whether a referral qualifies for commission.
Referral tracking windows, cookie durations, and attribution rules are configured by Fold. Additional details, including the referral attribution duration, will be provided to approved affiliates and may be updated from time to time.
Approved Affiliates are eligible to earn the following commissions on qualifying referrals:
35% recurring commission on Fold Verified subscription payments made by referred users, for as long as the referred user’s subscription remains active and the Affiliate remains in good standing under this Agreement.
25% commission on eligible paid listing fees paid by referred users.
Fold may introduce, adjust, or retire commission-eligible products or fee types over time. Commission rates and eligible products in effect at any given time will be provided to approved affiliates and may be updated from time to time, subject to Section 13 (Program Modifications).
Commissions are only earned on completed, valid payments actually received by Fold and are subject to the refund, chargeback, and reversal terms in Section 7.
Commissions are calculated based on qualifying payments received by Fold. Commissions generally become payable only after any applicable refund or dispute period for the underlying payment has passed, consistent with Section 7 (Refunds, Chargebacks, and Commission Reversals).
Additional program details, including the commission payment schedule, any minimum payout threshold, and accepted payment methods, will be provided to approved affiliates and may be updated from time to time.
Fold reserves the right to withhold or delay payment of any commission that is under review for accuracy, fraud, or compliance with this Agreement.
If a referred user’s payment is refunded, reversed, disputed (including via chargeback), or otherwise not ultimately collected by Fold, any commission associated with that payment will be reversed or deducted from your account, including from future commission payments if necessary.
Fold may also reverse commissions associated with:
Referrals that do not comply with this Agreement, including Section 8 (Prohibited Promotional Methods);
Fraudulent, self-referred, or manipulated referrals; or
Accounts that are later found to have violated Fold’s Terms of Service.
When promoting Fold, you agree not to:
Spam — send unsolicited bulk email, messages, comments, or notifications promoting your affiliate link.
Make misleading claims — misrepresent Fold’s features, pricing, guarantees, or affiliation with your business.
Impersonate Fold, its team, or any other person or business.
Misuse Fold’s trademarks or branding beyond what is permitted in Section 9 (Brand Usage).
Generate fraudulent referrals, including self-referrals, fake accounts, incentivized signups designed to game commission structures, or use of bots or automated traffic.
Bid on Fold’s brand terms (e.g., “Fold”, “Join Fold”) in paid search advertising without prior written permission.
Promote Fold on websites or through channels that contain unlawful, hateful, discriminatory, or adult content.
Violation of this section may result in forfeiture of unpaid commissions, suspension, or termination from the Program, as described in Section 12.
Fold grants Affiliates a limited, revocable, non-exclusive license to use Fold’s name, logo, and approved promotional materials solely for the purpose of promoting Fold through the Program.
You may not alter Fold’s logo or branding, or use it in a way that suggests endorsement, partnership, or employment beyond your role as an Affiliate.
You may not register domain names, social media handles, or business names that include “Fold” or confusingly similar variations without written permission.
Fold may provide approved marketing assets and may request that you stop using specific materials at any time.
This license ends immediately upon suspension or termination of your Affiliate status.
If you are located in the United States, or otherwise promoting Fold to a U.S. audience, you are responsible for complying with the Federal Trade Commission’s (“FTC”) guidelines on endorsements and affiliate marketing disclosures, and any equivalent disclosure requirements in your own jurisdiction.
At minimum, you agree to:
Clearly and conspicuously disclose your affiliate relationship with Fold whenever you promote Fold or share your referral link; and
Ensure disclosures are easy to notice and understand, and placed near the relevant promotional content (not buried in a bio, footnote, or separate page only).
You are solely responsible for your own compliance with applicable advertising and disclosure laws. Fold is not responsible for an Affiliate’s failure to disclose the relationship appropriately.
You are solely responsible for determining and paying any taxes owed on commissions earned through the Program. Fold may collect tax information (such as a W-9 or equivalent) as required by law before issuing payments, and may be required to report commission payments to tax authorities.
Fold may suspend or terminate your participation in the Program, with or without notice, at its sole discretion, including if:
you violate this Agreement, the Terms of Service, or any other Fold policy;
Fold determines, in its sole discretion, that your promotional activity is fraudulent, misleading, or harmful to Fold or its users;
your Fold account is suspended, restricted, or terminated; or
Fold decides to modify, limit, or discontinue the Program, as described in Section 13.
You may also stop participating in the Program at any time by discontinuing use of your affiliate link and notifying Fold. Upon suspension or termination, for any reason:
your affiliate link or code may be deactivated;
you must immediately stop using Fold’s brand assets as described in Section 9; and
any commissions associated with prohibited conduct, fraud, or violations of this Agreement may be forfeited, in addition to the reversal rights described in Section 7.
Fold may modify the Program at any time, including changes to commission rates, eligible products, payout terms, tracking mechanics, or this Agreement itself. Fold may also suspend or discontinue the Program entirely.
Material changes will be communicated to approved affiliates by email or other reasonable means. Continued participation in the Program after a change takes effect constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. If you do not agree to a change, your only remedy is to stop participating in the Program.
To the full extent permitted by law, Fold and its officers, employees, agents, contractors, and affiliates (“Fold Entities”) provide the Program “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including as to the availability, accuracy, or continuity of referral tracking, commission calculations, or payouts.
Fold Entities are not liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages, including lost profits or lost commissions, arising from or related to the Program, this Agreement, or your participation in it.
In no event shall Fold’s total liability to you under this Agreement exceed the total commissions actually paid to you in the 3 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
This Agreement is governed by the same jurisdiction and dispute resolution terms set out in Fold’s Terms of Service.
Some jurisdictions limit such disclaimers; portions of this section may not apply to you.
