We reserve the right to update and change the Terms from time to time without notice.

  1. Account Registration & Terms

    You must provide your legal full name, a valid email address, and any other information requested in order to complete the sign-up process for an Affiliate account (“account”).

    You may not use the Program for any illegal or unauthorized purpose. You must not, in the use of the Program, violate any laws in your jurisdiction (including but not limited to copyright laws).
  2. Commission

    For a sale to generate a commission to an Affiliate, the customer must complete the order form and remit full payment for the product. Commissions will only be paid on sales that are made when the customer clicks through qualified, correctly structured Affiliate referral links.

    We will only pay commission on links that are automatically tracked and reported by our systems. For our systems to track the referral, the visitor must have cookies enabled. We will not pay referral fees if someone says they signed up through you, but it was not tracked by our system.

    If the Affiliate is on a one-time payment option, they will receive a commission for each new signup. If the Affiliate is on a recurring payment schedule, they will continue to accumulate commissions for each paid transaction by the customer for all payments within 12 months.

    The referral fee is 30% of our revenue from customers that you refer. The referral fee will be credited to your Affiliate account once the customer pays their subscription.

You will not engage in any promotional, marketing, or other advertising activities in any online or offline manner, using any of our or our affiliates’ trademarks or logos (including any Searchdoge Mark), any Program Content, to artificially increase your commission income.


You will not bid on or purchase keywords, search terms, or other identifiers, that include the word “Searchdoge” or “Search Doge” or any other word of Searchdoge or its affiliates or variations or misspellings of any of these words. If an affiliate violates this agreement, without notification to the affiliate, Searchdoge will take action which could lead to termination of your account and forfeit & non-payment of commissions.


It is strictly prohibited to disseminate misleading information, false advertisements, or unauthorized coupon codes that misrepresent the features, benefits, or pricing
of Searchdoge. Should it be determined that you have engaged in such activities, Searchdoge reserves the right to disable your affiliate link and terminate your participation
in the affiliate program without prior notice. This action may result in the forfeiture of any pending commissions and the revocation of any earned commissions
associated with your account.

  1. Payment

    Payments are “Due” 30 days after the successful earned commission and are sent at the beginning of each month. Payments will be paid out via PayPal.

    Customer payments refunded or payments charged-back due to credit card fraud do not qualify for referral fees. We may delay crediting of referral fees subject to risk analysis considerations and Anti-Money Laundering procedures.

    We reserve the right to disqualify referral fees earned through fraudulent, illegal, or overly aggressive, questionable sales or marketing methods. If we suspect fraud (for example, if we see that signups are all from the same city or IP address) we may require you to prove that the referrals are valid.

    3.1 Upgrades/downgrades. You will receive additional commission if a customer upgrades to a higher tiered product in the future. If a customer downgrades, you will receive the commission associated with that downgrade.

Accordingly, all of our rules, policies, and operating procedures concerning pricing, customer orders, customer service, and services sales will apply to those customers.
