Publisher Agreement – ViralAgain

Last updated: May 29, 2026

⚠ Not legal advice — draft only. This page is business-friendly draft language, not written by a lawyer. It contains placeholders [like this] and reflects common practice, not the law of any jurisdiction. A qualified attorney must review, complete, and tailor it (entity, governing law, operating countries, payment/payout/KYC providers, GDPR/UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, ePrivacy, consumer, tax, and AML/KYC rules) before publication.

Plain-English summary. This is the deal for publishers. You share approved content using your tracking links and earn on verified traffic. Rates vary by campaign, country, source, and traffic quality, and are shown before you share. We verify traffic before paying, and we can hold or reverse earnings tied to invalid traffic — with a reason shown to you. Keep your traffic genuine and follow the Prohibited Traffic and Content rules. You’re an independent party, not our employee, and you’re responsible for your own taxes.

Purpose. Govern the relationship with publishers — how they earn, what is prohibited, how verification / holds / clawbacks work, and termination.

Representative clauses

1. Relationship

You participate as an independent party. Nothing creates employment, partnership, agency, or joint venture. You decide how and where to share, within these terms and our policies.

4. Earnings

You earn on verified, approved traffic only. The applicable rate is set per campaign and varies by campaign, country, traffic source, and traffic quality; the rate is shown before you generate a link. We make no representation or guarantee of any income or earnings.

5. Verification, holds & clawbacks

All traffic is subject to verification. We may (a) hold earnings pending verification, (b) decline to pay amounts associated with traffic that fails verification, and (c) reverse or recover amounts later found to be invalid or fraudulent, including via offset against future earnings. Where we take such action, we will provide a reason. Determinations of validity are made by us in good faith using our verification systems, as described in the Invalid Click Policy.

8. Quality score

We assign a quality score reflecting traffic quality, which may affect campaign access, rates available to you, and payout timing. The factors are described in-product.

10. Taxes

You are responsible for all taxes on your earnings and for providing accurate tax information (e.g. [W-9/W-8/required forms]) via our [payout provider]. We may withhold where legally required.

12. Effect of termination

On termination without cause by you, verified amounts past any hold period are payable subject to thresholds. On termination for fraud or material breach, we may withhold amounts associated with the breach, as permitted by law.

Clauses needing legal review

Independent-contractor classification (varies by country and can carry misclassification risk); clawback/offset enforceability; “sole discretion vs. good faith” standard for validity determinations; tax withholding obligations; consumer/worker protections in certain jurisdictions.
