Pangolinfo Affiliate Program Terms

Version 1.0 19 October 2026

These terms govern eligibility, referral attribution, commission calculations and payouts under the Pangolinfo Affiliate Program. Approved partners earn commissions on eligible purchases by genuinely new, independent customers during each customer’s first 12-month reward window, subject to a combined US$5,000 cap per customer.

1 Key terms

These terms apply once a partner is approved and accepts them. The contracting and paying entity and supported payout methods are identified and confirmed during enrollment. US dollars are used for commission accounting and payout thresholds.

2 Partner and customer eligibility

Joining is free and does not require a Pangolinfo purchase. Individual applicants must be at least 18; applicants acting for a business must be authorized to do so. Applicants must provide accurate identity or business details, contact information and proposed promotional methods. Participation begins only after approval. Each controlling individual or entity may normally maintain one partner account.

A qualified referral is a genuinely new individual or business with no previous paid Pangolinfo history, independent of the partner, correctly attributed under these terms, and with at least one positive eligible payment that has passed validation. Free registrations, trials and free credits do not qualify as paying customers.

Multiple email addresses, teams, workspaces or payment accounts belonging to the same actual customer are treated as one customer. Splitting a company into accounts does not create additional customers. Related purchases within a commonly controlled group cannot be split to obtain duplicate new-customer status or caps.

Existing free accounts, recorded sales opportunities and other referrals not automatically tracked require written approval before the first payment. They are not automatically eligible. Existing paying customers cannot regain new-customer status by creating another account.

3 Referral attribution

Approved partners receive a referral link, QR code and referral code linked to the same partner identity. Customers must register within 90 days of their first valid referral click and make their first eligible payment within 90 days of registration. Purchases outside either window are not automatically eligible.

Attribution is established and locked at signup using the earliest verifiable valid referral record. Later clicks on another partner’s link do not overwrite it. Customers signing up on another device may enter a referral code; a code does not automatically override a conflicting valid attribution.

Tracking corrections require verifiable original referral evidence submitted within seven days of registration and before the first payment, subject to Pangolinfo review. Referrals cannot be attached after a sale or used to take over an existing sales opportunity.

Attribution obtained through fabricated clicks, tracking placed without a deliberate user action, hidden redirects or other manipulation is invalid.

4 The first 12 months

The reward window starts when the customer’s first eligible payment succeeds and ends at the corresponding point 12 calendar months later, excluding that endpoint. Billing timestamps are evaluated in UTC. Only eligible service revenue attributable to this window qualifies. Paying early does not make service outside the window eligible.

If a monthly or annual order spans a boundary of the reward window, its eligible payment is allocated in proportion to the actual overlap between its billed service period and the window. An annual order entirely within the window earns 20% on its full eligible payment. A later switch to annual billing earns commission only on the remaining overlap.

A prepaid renewal for service entirely outside the reward window earns no commission. Upgrades, downgrades, switching billing cycles, buying another API, canceling and resubscribing, or changing accounts do not restart or extend the window.

No commission accrues for service outside the window after it ends. Pending commissions and approved balances earned within the window continue through normal processing and are not erased. For usage billed in arrears in the ordinary course, only usage incurred within the window and paid by the original invoice due date qualifies.

5 Rates and eligible payments

Standard monthly subscriptions earn 25%. Standard annual subscriptions earn 20% on the amount actually paid after the standard 20% annual discount and any other applicable discounts, rather than on the undiscounted monthly equivalent. Credits included in an annual subscription use the annual 20% rate.

Separately purchased, publicly priced credit add-ons and additional usage earn 25%, including when the customer has an annual base subscription. Standalone credit packs must be paid for and take effect within the reward window. Add-ons with a defined service period remain subject to the allocation in Section 4. Buying credits and consuming them do not generate two commissions.

Eligible payments exclude taxes and are reduced by discounts, refunds, chargebacks, free credits and other non-cash offsets. Cash deposits earn commission once, when applied to an eligible invoice; both the deposit and its later use cannot be commissioned. Previously commissioned funds applied to an upgrade do not earn commission again. Only additional eligible cash payments qualify. Ordinary payment-processing charges are not separately deducted from the commission base.

Calculate each commission by identifying the eligible payment, applying any service-period allocation, multiplying by the applicable rate, and limiting the result to the remaining US$5,000 allowance. Amounts are rounded to two decimal places in US dollars.

Non-USD orders use the USD equivalent recorded for the original payment, with the conversion basis shown in the commission record. Refund adjustments use the original order’s rate and conversion basis.

Negotiated enterprise pricing, custom services, reseller transactions and specially priced orders require a separate written agreement before the sale. Eligible products include Amazon data products included in the program. Social media and other new APIs qualify only once launched and expressly included.

6 The customer commission cap

US$5,000 is the combined net commission cap for each actual customer across all eligible products, billing cycles and accounts. Paid commissions and approved unpaid commissions count toward the cap, less commissions that have been reversed. Pending commissions reserve capacity; the remaining allowance is checked again at final approval.

If an order would exceed the remaining allowance, only the amount needed to reach the cap is approved. Orders use the allowance in payment-success order. Changing plans, splitting accounts, changing partners or adding APIs does not reset it. Refund reversals can restore unused allowance but cannot extend the 12-month window.

7 Validation and payouts

Each payment enters a 30-day validation period when it succeeds. For refund reviews or related payment disputes, Pangolinfo may extend validation to a maximum of 60 days after notifying the partner and explaining the reason. Validation is separate from the payout date: approved commissions enter the next monthly payout cycle.

The entire eligible annual commission enters the payable balance as a single amount after validation. It is not paid in 12 installments and does not wait for monthly credit allocations. The 12-month service window, US$5,000 cap and payout requirements still apply.

Both payout conditions must be met: at least two independent qualified paying referrals in total, and at least US$50 in approved payable commissions. Each customer must have at least one eligible payment that has passed validation. Free, fabricated and fully refunded transactions do not qualify.

The customer-count requirement needs to be met only once and is not reset by a customer’s ordinary cancellation of renewal. Qualification obtained through fabricated transactions, incorrect attribution or invalid payments may be corrected. Balances below either threshold carry forward and may be combined with commissions from other qualified referrals.

Pangolinfo processes eligible approved balances on the 15th of each month, or the next business day when needed. Before payment, partners must complete identity or business and payout-account verification and provide information required by law or the payment provider. Missing information delays payment until supplied but does not change the status of approved commissions.

Supported payout methods are confirmed at enrollment; no single method is guaranteed in every country. If payment is made in another currency, the exchange rate and fees are disclosed before payout. Required tax withholding is applied where relevant. Partners are responsible for their own legally required tax reporting.

8 Refunds and billing adjustments

A full refund or full chargeback reverses the commission attributable to that order. A partial refund or partial chargeback triggers recalculation based on the affected eligible revenue, using the original rate, reward window and calculation basis, rather than a later rate.

If a refund is assigned to a particular service or period, recalculate that portion. A clearly allocated refund solely for service outside the reward window does not reduce commission on other completed eligible service. Unallocated refunds are distributed proportionally across the original order. A reversal cannot exceed the commission actually credited for that order.

Pending commissions may be adjusted directly; approved unpaid commissions are deducted from the balance. Paid commissions may be offset against future payouts. If those balances are insufficient, Pangolinfo will provide an itemized notice and require repayment of the overpayment within 30 days. A disputed order does not cancel unrelated valid commissions.

Turning off automatic renewal is not itself a refund and does not cancel commission on a paid, eligible order.

9 Self referrals and promotional conduct

• Purchases by the partner, businesses the partner controls, businesses under common control, and the partner’s employer are excluded. Customer procurement, approval or payment personnel may not route their employer’s purchases through a personal partner account.

• Using relatives, employees or other accounts to buy for the partner’s own use, funding personal purchases to collect commission, fabricated orders, duplicate accounts and reciprocal or coordinated cashback schemes are prohibited. Genuine independent clients who open and pay for their own accounts may qualify.

• Do not impersonate Pangolinfo, make false claims, send spam, offer unauthorized discounts or subsidize buyers through commission-based cashback schemes. Paid advertising requires prior written approval; brand-keyword bidding requires specific authorization.

• Describe the product accurately and disclose the possibility of earning a commission clearly near the recommendation or link. Rewards are earned only from directly referred customers. Recruiting other partners and sub-affiliate activity do not generate commissions.

Pangolinfo may verify identities, business and payment entities, payout accounts and account relationships. A shared IP address or device is a review signal, not a standalone basis for refusal. Verification is limited to information needed to assess eligibility and genuine transactions, with customer information protected.

10 Accounts and disputes

Partners must protect account access and referral identifiers and keep contact and payout details current. Customer contacts, billing information and usage data are disclosed only as necessary. Partners may not sell or use customer information without authorization.

Attribution, amount or eligibility disputes may be submitted within 30 days of the relevant record or notice through the partner dashboard or the contact route on Pangolinfo’s website, with order identifiers and evidence. Within 15 business days of receiving complete information, Pangolinfo will provide a decision or explain what remains under review.

Where a violation is suspected, Pangolinfo may suspend new referral activity and payment for affected orders, explain the reason and allow supporting evidence. Confirmed invalid orders may have commissions reversed. Unaffected valid commissions remain payable under these terms.

11 Changes and ending participation

Ordinary program changes will normally be notified at least 30 days in advance and apply to customers newly attributed after the effective date. Existing valid referrals retain the rates, 12-month window and US$5,000 cap confirmed at attribution, except for corrections, refunds or changes required by law.

Partners may stop promoting, and Pangolinfo may give notice that it will stop accepting new referrals. Stopping new promotion does not itself cancel eligible commissions from existing valid referrals during their original window or erase pending commissions or balances. Payout requirements still apply. Termination for misconduct is handled under Sections 9 and 10.

These terms describe commissions and do not create authority to act for Pangolinfo or guarantee earnings. Customer services remain subject to their applicable service terms; personal information is handled under the Privacy Policy. The Chinese and English versions express the same commercial rules. Translation ambiguities will be clarified in writing without changing confirmed rights through a language discrepancy.

12 Calculation examples

These examples illustrate the calculation only and are not current plan quotations. They assume no taxes, additional discounts or chargebacks and that all other eligibility requirements are met.

A single annual commission is not an instant payout. Even if one customer generates more than US$50, the partner must still meet the two-qualified-customer requirement.
