The Legal Paige® Affiliate Agreement
This Agreement is between The Legal Paige, LLC (hereafter “Company”), and You (hereafter “Affiliate”) (collectively the “Parties”), for the purpose of Affiliate becoming or continuing as a partner affiliate for Company’s legal template shop (“Affiliate Program”). This updated Affiliate Agreement shall become effective upon Affiliate's entry date into the Affiliate Program, and supersedes any other written or oral agreements between the Parties.
1. Scope of Affiliate Program
Affiliate understands and agrees that their business was evaluated by Company and determined by Company to be a proper fit as an affiliate marketer for Company’s legal template shop. Affiliate understands and agrees that they shall comply with the terms of this Agreement at all times, and that Company reserves the right to terminate Affiliate’s role as a partner affiliate for Company’s Affiliate Program or amend or modify these terms and conditions at any time for any reason.
2. Use of Affiliate Link
Company shall provide Affiliate with a unique tracking link that Affiliate may share with their audience and promote through approved channels, including social media platforms (“Affiliate Link”). Affiliate agrees to use only the Affiliate Link to refer their audience to Company’s website homepage or to specific Company webpage(s) of Affiliate’s choice.
Affiliate shall not post, publish, or maintain any discount codes, Affiliate Links, or promotional offers on publicly accessible coupon websites, deal forums, open blog posts, or other platforms where such codes may be scraped, indexed, redistributed, or misused by third-party coupon applications or the general public outside of Affiliate’s intended audience. Affiliate agrees to promptly remove any such content upon Company’s request. Company reserves the right to modify or deactivate the Affiliate Link at any time, withhold commissions related to misuse, and require removal of non-compliant content in its sole discretion.
Affiliate also understands and agrees that Affiliate shall not use their own personal Affiliate Link to personally purchase any legal documents or courses. To clarify, Affiliate cannot consider themselves as a legitimate referral. Company reserves the right to withhold commission on any such transaction and may remove Affiliate from the program for violations of this provision.
Affiliate further agrees that they shall not post, publish, or maintain their Affiliate Link or any Company discount codes on third-party coupon, deal, promotional, or awards websites, nor on publicly accessible webpages, blog posts, forums, or similar platforms where such links or codes may be scraped, indexed, redistributed, or misused by individuals outside of Affiliate’s intended audience.
Affiliate may promote their Affiliate Link only through their own controlled marketing assets, including but not limited to their website, email list, and social media channels, and in a manner consistent with the spirit of the Affiliate Program. Company reserves the right to require removal of any non-compliant content at any time and to withhold commissions or terminate Affiliate’s participation in the program for violations of this provision.
Affiliate understands and agrees that Affiliate is solely responsible for properly sharing or publishing the correct Affiliate Link. Company shall not be held liable for any incorrect spelling, formatting, or configuration of Affiliate Link by Affiliate.
3. Commission Payout
Company agrees to pay Affiliate a base range of 10-20% commission on each sale made with Affiliate’s unique Affiliate Link. The percentage of commission Affiliate is eligible to earn will be based upon the total amount of commissions paid out in accordance with Section 4. Company reserves the right to increase Payout percentages for certain affiliates at its sole discretion.
Sales will be totaled at least once per month and will be made to Affiliate by Company through its Affiliate Platform and PayPal. Affiliate must link their PayPal account in the Affiliate Platform within thirty (30) days of becoming an affiliate in order to receive Payouts. If Affiliate fails to link their PayPal account in the Affiliate Platform within thirty (30) days of becoming an affiliate, Affiliate will be removed from Affiliate Program.
Affiliate is responsible for maintaining accurate and up-to-date payment information with Company on the Affiliate Platform in order to receive Payouts, including current email address information and accounting and tax documentation. Affiliate Payouts will only be issued when a total threshold of $50.00 or more in net commission sales by use of Affiliate’s Affiliate Link has been met. Any unpaid Payout amount below the threshold will roll over into the following month.
If Company is charged back (due to a customer refund) at any time up to twelve (12) months from the date of commissionable sale through Affiliate’s Affiliate Link, Company shall charge Affiliate back for that commission.
Company reserves the right to change its Payout procedures at any time in its sole and exclusive discretion. If Company changes its Payout procedures, Affiliate will be Notified pursuant to the Notice provision in Section 34.
Affiliate shall Notify Company of any issues with or disputes regarding a Payout within thirty (30) days of receipt of a Payout. Disputes filed after thirty (30) days of a Payout will not be addressed by Company.
4. Payout Sliding Scale
Affiliate will earn commission based on a sliding scale, wherein Affiliate is eligible to earn a percentage of each Customer's purchase based on the Affiliate's assigned Level. The Payout percentages are as follows:
- Level 1: Affiliates in the Level 1 tier will earn 10% of the total purchase price for each qualifying sale as commission. Affiliate will remain in Level 1 until they have reached $500.00 in paid out commissions. Once they have been paid out more than $500.00 in commissions, Affiliate will advance to Level 2.
- Level 2: Affiliates in the Level 2 tier will earn 15% of the total purchase price for each qualifying sale as commission. Affiliate will remain in Level 2 until they have reached $1,500.00 in paid out commissions. Once they have been paid out more than $1,500.00 in commissions, Affiliate will advance to Level 3.
- Level 3: Affiliates in the Level 3 tier will earn 20% of the total purchase price for each qualifying sale as commission. Affiliate will remain in Level 3 once they have surpassed $1,500.00 in paid out commissions.
Affiliate’s Level will be re-assessed at the end of each month. Affiliate will be notified of any Level adjustments prior to the start of the next Payout period. Company reserves the right to increase Payout percentages for certain affiliates at its sole discretion, including beyond 20%.
5. Affiliate Codes
Company may, at its sole discretion, provide Affiliate with a unique discount code for use by Affiliate’s audience. Such codes may apply to all products available at thelegalpaige.com or to select products. Discount codes are not guaranteed and, if offered, will be provided only at select times of the year. The code will track commissionable sales in addition to Affiliate’s Affiliate Link.
Affiliate acknowledges that exclusive and general discount codes are susceptible to “coupon leakage,” “coupon stuffing,” scraping, redistribution, or misuse by third-party coupon websites, browser extensions, AI tools, cashback platforms, and similar services. Affiliate expressly agrees that they shall not post, submit, distribute, or knowingly allow their unique discount code to be listed on websites designed primarily for coupon aggregation or deal sharing, including but not limited to RetailMeNot, Honey, CouponBirds, or similar platforms. Affiliate further agrees not to engage in coupon stuffing, forced clicks, automatic code injection, or any deceptive or unauthorized promotional practices.
If Company determines, in its sole discretion, that Affiliate’s unique code has been leaked, scraped, publicly redistributed, compromised, misused, abused, or associated with coupon stuffing practices, Company reserves the right to immediately disable the code, withhold or reverse commissions associated with such misuse, and/or terminate Affiliate’s participation in the program.
Affiliate understands and agrees that commissions generated through unauthorized coupon redistribution, leakage, stuffing, or other misuse will not be eligible for payout. If requested by Affiliate, Company will provide a report explaining the determination of misuse and the amount of commission deemed ineligible. Any commissions associated with inappropriate use of the code may be deducted from Affiliate’s commission payout.
Company further reserves the right to modify or replace an Affiliate’s discount code at any time if misuse is suspected or detected. Company shall notify Affiliate promptly if a code change is required and will provide a replacement code as reasonably practicable. Affiliate remains solely responsible for notifying their audience of any updated code.
6. Affiliate’s One-Time Personal Discount Code
In recognition of Affiliate’s participation in Company’s Affiliate Program, Affiliate shall receive a one-time, personal use 30% off discount code to use on any available products in the TLP Shop. Affiliate may only use their personal discount code after one (1) full-length contract has been purchased using their Affiliate Link (at least $497 in value prior to any discount codes applied). After the qualifying sale has been completed, Affiliate may reach out to the TLP team at affiliates@thelegalpaige.com and request their personal discount code and Company shall issue the code via email.
This personal discount code will be available to Affiliate for up to fourteen (14) days from the date it is sent. Affiliate understands and agrees that this personal discount code is for Affiliate’s personal use only, and that Affiliate may not share it with any person or entity.
7. Affiliate Obligations
Company monitors Affiliate’s account and all clicks and/or purchases associated with Affiliate’s account. Affiliate is required to make at least one (1) sale within their first 180 days of joining Company’s Affiliate Program to continue with the Program. Thereafter, to remain an active member of the Affiliate Program and be eligible for Payouts, Affiliate is required to make at least one (1) sale every 180 days.
In the event that Affiliate does not meet these requirements, Company reserves the right to terminate Affiliate from the Affiliate Program. Company will first Notify Affiliate regarding pending Program termination and may, at its sole discretion, give Affiliate a courtesy thirty (30) day extension to meet the Program requirements. In the event Affiliate does not meet the Program requirements after the thirty (30) day courtesy extension period, Company reserves the right to immediately terminate Affiliate from the Affiliate Program at its sole discretion.
Further, if Company determines that Affiliate is not otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Agreement, or that Affiliate has improperly used the Affiliate Link (or a code, if offered), Company reserves the right to immediately terminate Affiliate’s participation in the Affiliate Program in its sole discretion.
