Affiliate Program Terms
BeeVibe Affiliate Program Terms
Version: 1.5
Last updated: 2026-04-27
1. Overview
These Affiliate Program Terms ("Affiliate Terms") govern your participation, as an individual or entity enrolled in it (an "Affiliate"), in the BeeVibe Affiliate Program (the "Program"), operated by BV Labs, Inc. ("BV Labs," "we," "us"). These Affiliate Terms supplement our Terms of Service and are incorporated by reference.
By enrolling in the Program, you agree to be bound by these Affiliate Terms.
2. Eligibility
To participate, you must:
- Be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction if higher)
- Be a Registered User of BeeVibe in good standing
- Meet the eligibility requirements in Terms of Service §6
- Comply with all applicable laws, including tax, advertising, and consumer protection laws
BV Labs may approve or deny Affiliate applications at its sole discretion and may terminate Affiliates at any time for any reason.
3. How the Program works
3.1 Referral links and codes
Once approved, you will receive unique referral links and/or codes. When a new user signs up and completes qualifying activity (typically creating an account and making a first deposit or first trade, as defined in Program materials), they are tracked as your referral.
3.2 Commissions
You may earn commissions for qualifying referrals. Current commission rates are displayed in the Program dashboard. Commissions are calculated based on trading fees generated by your referrals during a defined lookback window.
BV Labs may adjust commission rates, qualification criteria, and lookback windows at any time at its sole discretion. Material changes will be communicated with reasonable notice.
3.3 Payment
- Commissions are paid in USDC to the wallet on file for your account
- Payments are processed monthly for the prior calendar month
- Minimum payout threshold: $50 USDC (commissions below the threshold roll over)
- BV Labs may withhold payouts pending fraud investigation
3.4 Taxes
You are responsible for all taxes on commissions earned. BV Labs may issue tax forms (e.g., Form 1099) to U.S.-based Affiliates meeting thresholds.
4. REQUIRED DISCLOSURES — FTC AND ADVERTISING RULES
4.1 Material connection disclosure
Whenever you promote BeeVibe in a way that could reasonably cause consumers to view you as more credible — including (without limitation) posts on social media, videos, newsletters, reviews, blog posts, podcasts, or any content linked to your referral — you must clearly and conspicuously disclose that you are a BeeVibe Affiliate and receive compensation.
Examples of acceptable disclosures:
- "#ad"
- "#sponsored"
- "I'm a BeeVibe Affiliate and earn a commission if you sign up through my link."
- "Ad: BeeVibe partnership"
Disclosures must:
- Be visible before the audience encounters the promotional content (not buried in a footer)
- Be in the same language as the content
- Not be ambiguous (e.g., "#sp" or "#collab" alone are insufficient under FTC guidance)
This requirement reflects the FTC's "Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising" and applies globally under equivalent local rules (e.g., ASA in UK, ACCC in Australia).
4.2 No deceptive claims
You may not:
- Imply endorsements or partnerships that don't exist
- Use celebrities' names or images to suggest endorsement without authorization
- Fabricate user experiences or testimonials
- Misrepresent BeeVibe's features, fees, security, or track record
4.3 Honest reviews only
If you review or recommend BeeVibe, your review must reflect your actual experience. You may not compensate users to leave false positive reviews.
5. PROHIBITED promotional statements about Identity Tokens
This is critical and non-negotiable:
5.1 Never describe Identity Tokens as investments
You may NOT:
- Describe, imply, or promote Identity Tokens as "investments," "securities," "yield-bearing," or any similar financial characterization
- Guarantee, imply, or suggest financial returns, yield, or profit from purchasing Identity Tokens
- Use phrases like "X% returns," "moon," "to the moon," "financial freedom," or otherwise frame Identity Tokens as money-making opportunities
- Provide financial or investment advice
- Claim Identity Tokens are "backed" by any asset or guarantee
- Imply that a specific Identity Token's value will increase
5.2 Do describe Identity Tokens truthfully
Acceptable characterizations:
- "Collectible digital assets"
- "Memecoins"
- "Community tokens for fans of [Creator]"
- "Digital collectibles of real people"
5.3 Why this matters
If you violate Section 5.1, you:
- Risk causing Identity Tokens to be classified as securities under U.S. or other law
- Risk personal liability to purchasers for their losses
- Risk SEC or equivalent enforcement action
- Will be immediately removed from the Program and have all pending commissions forfeited
- May be subject to civil claims by BV Labs to recover damages
6. Other prohibited conduct
You may not:
- Use spam (unsolicited email, SMS, or messages) to promote BeeVibe
- Use incentivized traffic schemes (paid clicks, paid signups, pay-per-view farms) unless expressly approved
- Run search ads bidding on "BeeVibe" or our trademarks without written permission
- Create fake accounts to self-refer or inflate referral counts
- Circumvent the referral tracking system (direct new users to sign up without your code, or layer codes)
- Promote BeeVibe on sites or through channels that feature illegal content, CSAM, violence, hate speech, or other prohibited content
- Impersonate BeeVibe or BV Labs — you are an independent Affiliate, not an employee, agent, or representative
- Modify BeeVibe branding (logo, wordmarks, colors) in ways that violate our brand guidelines
- Use BeeVibe trademarks in domain names, company names, or app names without written permission
- Promote in Prohibited Jurisdictions
7. Relationship between parties
You are an independent contractor, not an employee, agent, partner, or joint venturer of BV Labs. You have no authority to make any commitment on behalf of BV Labs. You are solely responsible for your business, taxes, and marketing expenses.
8. Fraud, refunds, and clawbacks
BV Labs reserves the right to:
- Clawback commissions for referrals that are later found to be fraudulent, to involve chargebacks, or to violate the Terms of Service
- Withhold payouts during fraud investigation
- Terminate Affiliates engaged in fraud or manipulation, with forfeiture of pending commissions
9. Term and termination
9.1 Term
These Affiliate Terms begin when BV Labs approves your application and continue until terminated.
9.2 Termination by you

9.3 Termination by BV Labs
BV Labs may terminate your Program participation at any time, with or without cause. Termination for cause (including Section 5, Section 6, or fraud) results in forfeiture of all pending commissions and may trigger claims to recover damages.
