In plain terms: join free, share your code, and when a brand-new business you refer books a build of $3,000 or more and pays their Phase 1 investment, you earn a clean 10% of the build in cash ($300 to $1,000), and they get $250 off. You must clearly disclose that you get paid when you recommend us, and we collect a W-9 before your first payout. The full rules are below.
1. Acceptance and overview
These terms govern the ChaseDaddy Referral Partner Program(the "Program"), operated by ChaseDaddy.com, a business of Chase Daddy Media & Sports Interns (CDMSI), Denver, Colorado ("we," "us," or "our"). By joining the Program, requesting a referral code, or referring a business, you ("Partner," "you") agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not participate. We may update these terms at any time; the version in effect when a referral is made governs that referral.
2. Who can join
Anyone 18 or older may join free: past clients, freelancers and agencies at capacity, and vendors who serve the same businesses we do. No account or purchase is required to join. We may decline or remove any Partner at our discretion, including for violating these terms.
3. What counts as a qualifying referral
A referral qualifies only when all of the following are true: (a) it is a genuinely new business that is not already in our pipeline and is not a current or past client; (b) your referral code is captured (via your link or named on the booking call) at or before the referred business's discovery call; (c) the referred business books a build of $3,000 or more and pays their Phase 1 investment; and (d) the payment clears and survives any applicable refund or chargeback window. A form fill, a call, or an unpaid quote alone does not qualify. Payment in the door does.
4. How much you earn
You earn a flat cash reward equal to 10% of the build the referred business books:
| Build they book | Build value | You earn (cash) |
|---|
| Custom Website | $3,000 | $300 |
| Full Stack + Social Media | $5,000 | $500 |
| Full Stack + Social + CRM | $10,000 | $1,000 |
There is no cap on the number of businesses you can refer or the total cash you can earn. Reward amounts are set at the time the referral is recorded and do not change retroactively if the Program terms later change.
5. The discount your referral receives
Every business you refer gets $250 off their Phase 1 investment on any package, applied automatically as a credit when they book with your code on file. The discount is a one-time credit per new business, cannot be combined with other offers, and has no cash value.
6. When and how you get paid
You get paid in two halves, by secure payout to the account you provide:
- The first 50% within 30 days after the referred business's Phase 1 investment clears and a 14-day hold passes.
- The second 50% within 30 days after they pay their final balance and the project goes live.
This mirrors how clients pay us, so payouts always come from money already in the door. You are responsible for giving us accurate payout details. We are not liable for payouts sent to an incorrect account you provided.
7. Founding Partner tier
Refer 3 or more qualifying builds in a rolling 12-month period and you become a Founding Partner: your rate increases from 10% to 12% cash on builds booked after you reach the threshold, and the leads you send receive priority handling. Founding Partner status is reviewed on a rolling basis and may be adjusted if qualifying activity falls below the threshold.
8. Required disclosure (FTC)
Federal Trade Commission rules require you to clearly and conspicuously disclose that you are paid when you recommend us. The disclosure must be hard to miss and placed at the start of your recommendation, not buried at the end or hidden behind a "more" link. Plain language is best, for example:"Heads up: I get paid when you book with ChaseDaddy.com through my link."Hashtags like #ad alone are not sufficient. You may not make false or misleading claims about us or our work. Failure to disclose is grounds for withholding payouts and removal from the Program.
9. Taxes (W-9 and 1099-NEC)
Referral cash is reportable income. Before we issue your first payout, you must provide a completed IRS Form W-9 (or W-8 for non-US persons). If your total payouts for a calendar year reach the IRS reporting threshold, we will issue a Form 1099-NEC. If you do not provide a valid taxpayer identification number, we are required to apply backup withholding to your payouts at the current IRS rate. You are solely responsible for any taxes owed on referral income. Nothing here is tax advice; consult your own advisor.
10. Prohibited conduct and anti-fraud
To keep the Program fair, the following are not allowed and will void the affected referrals:
- Self-referrals: referring yourself, your own business, or any entity you own or control to claim a discount or reward.
- Submitting fake, incentivized, or non-genuine leads, or businesses already in our pipeline.
- Spamming, misrepresenting us, bidding on our brand terms in paid ads, or buying email lists.
- Using bots, fake accounts, or any scheme to manufacture referrals.
Every referral is subject to manual review and approval before any payout. We may withhold or reverse rewards we reasonably believe to be fraudulent, duplicative, or non-qualifying.
11. Attribution window
A referral is attributed to you when your code is captured before the referred business's discovery call. Stored referral codes have a 60-day attribution window from the visitor's last click on your link. If two Partners could claim the same business, the most recent valid code on file before the discovery call controls, at our reasonable discretion.
12. Clawback
If a referred payment is later refunded, charged back, or reversed, or if the referral is found to be non-qualifying or fraudulent after a payout, the corresponding reward is forfeited. We may recover an already-paid reward by offsetting it against future payouts or by requesting repayment.
13. Changes, suspension, and termination
We may modify, suspend, or end the Program, or change reward amounts and eligibility, at any time. We may remove any Partner for any reason, including violating these terms. Rewards already earned and approved for qualifying referrals made before a change will be honored on the terms in effect when the referral was recorded.
14. Relationship and liability
You participate as an independent party, not an employee, agent, partner, or joint venturer of ChaseDaddy.com, and you may not represent otherwise or bind us in any way. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability under the Program is limited to the rewards actually owed to you for qualifying referrals.
