Section 11

Commission Structure

Affiliates earn commissions on verified, successful purchases made through their unique affiliate tracking link, within the cookie window. The current commission structure is displayed in your affiliate dashboard and on the Program information page.

Detail Information
Commission TypePercentage of net sale value
Commission BasisSuccessfully completed and verified purchases only
Cookie Duration90 days from first click
Attribution ModelLast-click attribution
Commission on RefundsReversed (see Section 13)
Self-Referral CommissionsNot permitted (see Section 18)

MakeBusinessAI reserves the right to modify commission rates, structures, and eligible products at any time. Changes will be communicated via email and/or your affiliate dashboard. Continued participation after such notification constitutes acceptance of the new rates.

Commissions are only earned on qualifying purchases. Commissions are not earned on:

  • Purchases made using your own affiliate link (self-referrals)
  • Purchases that are subsequently refunded or charged back
  • Purchases generated through fraudulent, spammy, or prohibited traffic
  • Purchases where tracking data is unavailable or untraceable due to ad blockers or user settings
Section 12

Commission Approval Process

All commissions go through a review and approval period before becoming eligible for payout. This period allows us to verify the validity of each referral and account for potential refunds or disputes.

  • Commissions are placed in „Pending” status immediately upon a qualifying referral being recorded.
  • After a review period of up to 30 days from the date of purchase, eligible commissions are moved to „Approved” status.
  • Approved commissions become payable according to the payout schedule (see Section 15).
  • Commissions may be rejected if the sale is found to involve fraud, spam, a self-referral, a policy violation, or if the sale is refunded during the review period.

MakeBusinessAI makes all commission approval decisions at its sole discretion. Approved commissions are final unless fraud is discovered at a later date, in which case they may be reversed.

Section 13

Refunds and Chargebacks

If a customer who purchased through your affiliate link receives a full or partial refund, or initiates a chargeback, the corresponding commission will be deducted or reversed accordingly.

  • If the commission has not yet been paid out, it will be removed from your pending or approved balance.
  • If the commission has already been paid out, the amount will be deducted from a future payout. If your balance is insufficient, MakeBusinessAI reserves the right to request repayment of the outstanding amount.
  • Affiliates have no right to commissions on refunded or charged-back transactions, regardless of when the refund occurs.

Refund rates that appear unusually high may trigger a review of your account and promotional methods. Affiliates found driving low-quality traffic with high refund rates may be terminated.

Section 14

Commission Reversals

MakeBusinessAI reserves the right to reverse commissions in the following circumstances:

  • The associated purchase was refunded, disputed, or charged back.
  • The referral was identified as a self-referral.
  • The commission was generated through fraudulent activity, fake traffic, bots, or prohibited methods.
  • The affiliate is found to have violated these Terms at any point before or after the purchase.
  • The purchase is determined to be invalid for any other reason at MakeBusinessAI’s discretion.
  • Technical errors resulted in an incorrect commission being recorded.

Commission reversals may occur at any time, including after an initial payout has been made, if fraud or violation is discovered retrospectively.

Section 15

Payout Terms

Approved commissions are paid out according to the following terms:

  • Payouts are processed monthly, typically within the first 15 days of each calendar month for the previous month’s approved commissions.
  • Payouts are only processed if your account balance meets the minimum payout threshold (see Section 16).
  • Affiliates are responsible for providing accurate and up-to-date payment information in their affiliate dashboard. MakeBusinessAI is not responsible for failed payments due to incorrect information provided by the affiliate.
  • Available payout methods are detailed in your affiliate dashboard and may include PayPal, bank transfer, or other methods at MakeBusinessAI’s discretion.
  • All payouts are made in USD unless otherwise agreed in writing.
  • MakeBusinessAI is not responsible for any currency conversion fees, bank fees, or third-party transaction fees incurred by the affiliate upon receiving payment.

Affiliates are solely responsible for reporting and paying any taxes owed on commissions earned, in accordance with the laws of their country or jurisdiction. MakeBusinessAI does not withhold taxes on affiliate payments.

Section 16

Minimum Payout Threshold

A minimum account balance of $100 USD is required before a payout will be processed.

  • If your balance does not reach $100 USD in a given month, your earnings will carry forward to the following month and continue accumulating until the threshold is met.
  • There is no maximum to the amount that can be paid out in a single period.
  • Balances that remain below the threshold for an extended period will continue to accumulate without expiry, provided your account remains in good standing.
  • If your affiliate account is terminated, any balance below the minimum payout threshold may be forfeited at MakeBusinessAI’s discretion.
Section 18

Self-Referrals Prohibited

Self-referrals are strictly prohibited. A self-referral occurs when you use your own affiliate link to purchase any MakeBusinessAI product — whether for yourself, using an account in your own name, a family member’s account, a business account you control, or any other account that benefits you directly or indirectly.

  • Any commissions identified as self-referrals will be immediately reversed and voided, regardless of whether they have been paid out.
  • Repeated self-referrals will result in permanent account termination and potential legal action to recover amounts already paid.
  • Affiliates suspected of self-referral activity may have their accounts suspended pending investigation.
Section 19

Fraudulent Activity

MakeBusinessAI actively monitors all affiliate activity for signs of fraud. Fraudulent activity includes, but is not limited to:

  • Generating fake clicks, impressions, or referrals through automated tools, bots, or scripts.
  • Creating fake customer accounts to generate commissions.
  • Encouraging others to click your affiliate link without genuine interest in purchasing.
  • Cookie stuffing or other forms of unauthorized tracking manipulation.
  • Colluding with other affiliates or third parties to generate invalid commissions.
  • Using stolen payment methods or identities to complete purchases.

If fraudulent activity is detected, MakeBusinessAI will:

  • Immediately suspend and permanently terminate the affiliate account.
  • Reverse all commissions generated through fraudulent activity, including those already paid out.
  • Reserve the right to pursue legal action and recover all damages incurred.
  • Report the activity to relevant authorities where required by law.
Section 20

MakeBusinessAI grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use our approved promotional materials — including approved logos, banners, and copy — solely for the purpose of promoting the Program in accordance with these Terms.

  • You may not modify, alter, or create derivative works of any MakeBusinessAI branding, logos, or content without prior written permission.
  • You may not use our intellectual property in any way that implies partnership, ownership, or official endorsement beyond your affiliate relationship.

Upon termination, all pending and approved commissions that have not yet been paid may be forfeited if the termination is due to a violation of these Terms. Commissions earned in good faith prior to termination may, at MakeBusinessAI’s sole discretion, be paid out after the standard review period.

You may also terminate your own participation at any time by contacting us and requesting account closure.

Section 22

Right to Reject Affiliates

  • Applicants whose websites or channels promote content that MakeBusinessAI considers inappropriate, harmful, or reputationally damaging.
  • Existing affiliates whose promotional activities have been found to violate these Terms at any point.
Section 23
