(Any customer who creates a Rapyd Cloud Account in connection with such customer's use of Beta Services shall not be a Referred Customer, and you will not be eligible for any Commissions in relation to such customer). We reserve the right in our sole discretion to deactivate and remove Referred Customers from the Program which have failed to maintain an active service plan or otherwise violate our Terms of Service.

  6. COMMISSIONS

    1. You are eligible for one-time and/or recurring referral payments from us ("Commission") upon all of the following conditions being met:
      1. Your Referred Customer has never previously been a customer of Rapyd Cloud;
      2. Your Referred Customer has made payment to Rapyd Cloud for the Services (the "Fee");
      3. Your Account is active at the time the Referred Customer pays its Fees to Rapyd Cloud; and
      4. Rapyd Cloud has received all requested tax documents (e.g., Form W-9) from you.
    2. The amount of and methodology of calculating Commissions are determined, and subject to change by, Rapyd Cloud in its sole discretion. Commission amounts and methodology, and updates thereto, are available in this knowledge base article.
    3. Commissions are calculated based on the actual Fees paid by the Referred Customer, exclusive of any taxes (such as value added tax, sales tax, goods and services tax, etc.), levies or duties owed by the Referred Customer. If the Referred Customer has received a discount, the Commission is calculated from the discounted Fee. One-time fees, overage fees, and add-on subscriptions shall not be considered in the calculation of Commissions. If any Fees are refunded to a Referred Customer for any reason, Rapyd Cloud may set off such amounts from future Commissions.
    4. Commissions shall only be paid to one Affiliate for each Referred Customer. If there is a dispute as to which Affiliate should receive Commission, we shall determine in our sole discretion which Affiliate will receive the Commission, and our decision in this matter shall be final.
    5. When a potential Rapyd Cloud customer clicks on an Affiliate Link, a tracking cookie will be stored by the web browser used by the potential Rapyd Cloud customer. The tracking cookie will have a validity of thirty (30) days. During those 30 days, if the potential Rapyd Cloud customer clicks on a different Affiliate Link while using the same web browser, a new cookie will be placed and will overwrite the original cookie. After 30 days have passed since the last cookie was set, it will expire, and a new cookie will be placed if the potential Rapyd Cloud customer clicks on any Affiliate Link. Tracking cookies are stored by individual web browsers. If a potential Rapyd Cloud customer clicks on different Affiliate Links using different web browsers, each web browser will store a tracking cookie associated with an Affiliate Link that was accessed within that web browser. At signup, the Referred Customer will be assigned to the Affiliate whose Affiliate Link is identified by the tracking cookie stored by the web browser used by the Referred Customer to sign up.
    6. We are not responsible for tracking cookies that have been either intentionally or unintentionally deleted. No Commission will be paid for tracking errors of any kind, including, without limitation, any tracking errors caused by an Affiliate's editing, masking, or tampering with an Affiliate Link.
    7. Commissions shall only be paid when the balance of all Commissions due is greater than or equal to $200.00.
    8. We are not responsible for lost, stolen, or misdirected Commission payments.
