Partner Terms

1. Who we are and what this is

WiredType (Kevin Weller, doing business as WiredType, Jersey City, New Jersey) runs the WiredType Partner Program. Kevin Weller, doing business as WiredType, is the party to these Terms through October 14, 2026. On October 15, 2026, Kevin Weller transfers the WiredType business, the Partner Program and these Terms to WiredType LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company that Kevin Weller owns. From that day, "WiredType", "we" and "us" in these Terms mean WiredType LLC. Effective October 15, 2026, WiredType LLC agrees to become the party to these Terms in Kevin Weller's place and takes over every obligation to you under them, including commissions and earnings from before that day that are not yet paid. When it does, you release Kevin Weller from all obligations to you under these Terms, including those from before October 15, 2026. By accepting these Terms, you consent to Kevin Weller's assignment of all his rights and delegation of all his obligations under these Terms to WiredType LLC, and to that release. We do not need to give you any further notice or ask you to accept again for them. If you accepted an earlier version of these Terms, accepting this version also means you agree that the assignment, the takeover and the release take effect on October 15, 2026, and you give up the 30 days' notice in section 11 for them. A Partner is a person or company that promotes WiredType and is paid a commission on purchases by customers they find. Joining is free. Partners buy nothing to join or to earn. Partners are independent; nothing here creates employment, agency, partnership or a franchise. A Partner may not sign contracts, make promises or incur costs in WiredType's name.

2. Joining

You must be 18 or older, have a WiredType account and accept these Terms. You can join and start earning before your Stripe payout setup (your identity, bank and tax details through Stripe Connect) is done, and you complete it before your first payout (section 4). We may decline or close an application only for a reason in section 8, and we tell you which one.

3. How you earn

3.1 Your customers. A person becomes your customer when they create their WiredType account, or make their first purchase, within 60 days of using your link, partner card or code, and yours was the first Partner link, card or code they used. From then on they stay your customer for as long as you remain a Partner.

3.2 Your rate. You earn 20 percent of what your customer pays, on every purchase they make: reports, upgrades, credit packs, team seats, and every Plus and Pro payment, renewals included. Once 25 different customers of yours have paid, you earn 25 percent on reports, upgrades, credit packs and team seats bought from then on. Plus and Pro payments stay at 20 percent. Commissions already earned are not recalculated when your rate changes. Only customers who are not Partners count toward the 25, and your own purchases never count.

3.3 What the rate is taken from. Your commission is taken from the amount your customer actually paid, after any discount, leaving out sales tax. A refund or a card dispute cancels the commission on that purchase. When a customer's Plus or Pro plan carries a lasting discount, such as a Founder's Circle membership, which keeps its lower price for as long as the customer holds it, that plan's payments earn no commission. The $10 upgrade from Essentials to Full earns no commission when it is bought at a discount. The customer's other purchases earn as usual.

3.4 Friends of your customers. When a customer of yours who is not a Partner shares WiredType and a friend buys, that friend becomes your customer too. A friend of that friend does not.

3.5 Partners you introduce. If you bring a person into the program and they become a Partner, their customers are theirs, and you keep earning on your own customers as before. WiredType also pays you 5 percent of the commissions that Partner earns from their own customers, for as long as you both remain Partners. It is paid by WiredType, so their commissions stay the same. You earn nothing for the signup itself and nothing on Partners that they bring in. When a customer of yours becomes a Partner, their own purchases keep earning you your rate.

3.6 What we never pay for. Your own purchases, purchases by your household or employees, and purchases on accounts you own or control earn no commission. We never pay for sign-ups, clicks or the act of bringing in a Partner; the 5 percent in 3.5 comes only from real customer purchases.

3.7 Sales before you joined (the 30-day look-back). When you join, a purchase made through your own link in the 30 days before you joined becomes yours if all of these are true: it was made before you first opened the Partner page or these Terms; it has not been refunded or disputed; it is not your own purchase; and its commission has not been paid out.

You confirm when you join that you did not know about the program when you shared those links. If you first came to WiredType through another Partner's link, those purchases move from that Partner to you. On those moved purchases only, that Partner earns 5 percent of your commission, in place of anyone else.

3.8 At most two people on a purchase. Each purchase pays at most your commission and, where section 3.5 or 3.7 applies, one introducer's 5 percent of it. If a purchase has no Partner, or its Partner was not introduced by anyone, WiredType keeps that share and pays no one else in its place.

3.9 Annual check. Once a year we ask you to re-accept the current Terms and answer a short check on the rules (about 10 minutes). The check keeps every Partner current on the disclosure and email rules. Until you finish, people who buy through your links are not added as your customers; everything you already earn continues, and the pause ends the moment you finish.

3.10 Companies that use our API. If you bring a company to the WiredType API, you earn 20 percent of what that company pays for the API, after any discount and leaving out sales tax, for the 24 months from its first payment. There is no limit on the amount. You must register the company with us before it signs, and tell the company's decision maker in writing, before it signs, that you earn a referral fee. You may not refer a company you work for, advise, represent or sit on the board of, a government body, or any company whose rules or law bar the fee. Sections 3.5 and 3.8 do not apply to API fees. People who are not Partners can earn this share under a separate one-page referral agreement.

4. Payment

Each commission is ready to pay 45 days after the customer's payment. The 45 days give refunds and card disputes time to arrive, so a payment we send you is rarely taken back. On the first business day of each month, we pay your ready balance, when it is $25 or more, by Stripe transfer to the Stripe Connect account in your name, and WiredType pays Stripe's payout fees. A smaller balance carries over to the next month and never expires while you remain a Partner. When you leave, your ready balance is paid in full, whatever the amount. If a purchase is refunded or disputed after we paid you its commission, that commission is taken from your future earnings, item by item on your statement; we never send you a bill, and WiredType pays any dispute fee. You are an independent contractor and you are responsible for your own taxes. Before your first payout, Stripe asks for your tax details. We, through Stripe, send you a Form 1099 when US law requires one. Partners outside the US give Stripe a W-8 form, and we withhold tax where the law requires it. We may hold a payout only for a reason in section 8, such as a broken rule in section 6, a refund rate above 20 percent on your customers for 60 days, inaccurate tax or identity details, or fraud, and we tell you within 5 business days which reason applies and what would release it. You can see every customer, commission, hold and payout in your Partner dashboard at any time.

5. What you may do

Promote WiredType anywhere you have the right to post: your site, newsletter, social accounts, videos, talks, workshops, print, in person. Use the WiredType name, logos, share cards and marketing kit as we provide them, unaltered except for size. Describe your own experience with the product honestly. Offer your code to your audience. Build a business around it.

6. What you may not do

Each rule names the harm it prevents, so it is clear why it exists.

6.1 Spam: unsolicited bulk email or messages, comment spam, unsolicited direct messages to strangers. (Harm: our sending reputation and legal exposure.)

6.2 Deception: false claims about WiredType, about DISC, about results, or about what a report contains; fake reviews; pretending to be WiredType; misleading redirects; cookie stuffing; forcing clicks; incentivized purchases without disclosure.

6.3 Income claims; "get rich" language; promises of income.

6.4 Missing disclosure: when you share, put this next to your link, in the post itself, and say it out loud in videos and live streams: "I earn a commission if you buy through this link." If WiredType gave you a free report or anything else of value, say that too: "WiredType gave me a free report, and I earn a commission if you buy through this link." A hashtag, a bio line or a link page alone is not enough. When you invite someone to be a Partner, say "I earn a share if you join," and never state or suggest any amount you or anyone else has earned or could earn; point them to the Partner page. Never send email or texts to people who did not ask for them; any email you send about WiredType carries a working unsubscribe link and your postal address.

6.5 Self-referral and code farming (section 3.6), buying through your own code, refund cycling.

6.6 Paid search on the WiredType name or trademarks, or on "wiredtype" misspellings; domains or handles that imitate WiredType.

6.7 Discrimination, harassment, hate, or targeting people under 18 in your promotion.

6.8 Coupon or deal sites that publish your code as a general discount without your own promotion attached (we may set a separate deal-site tier; until then it is not allowed).

6.9 Reselling reports, redistributing report content, scraping, or reverse engineering the site.

6.10 Acting for a competitor while using WiredType materials to do it (promoting a competing DISC product with our assets). There is no non-compete: you may promote other products, including competitors, as long as you do not use our materials or our name to do it and you keep your disclosures accurate.

7. Enforcement ladder (the whole point of section 6 is that this section is rarely needed)

We apply these steps in order. We skip steps only for a Serious Cause in 8.2. Every step is a written notice in your Partner inbox and by email, with the rule, the evidence, the date, the step, and what ends it.

Step 1, Notice: what we saw and the rule. No change to earnings or payouts. You have 14 days to fix it and reply.

Step 2, Warning: if it continues or repeats within 90 days. Earnings continue; we may pause new share-card generation for the channel involved until fixed.

Step 3, Payout hold: if it continues after a Warning. Earnings continue to accrue; payouts pause; you have 30 days to cure. Cured: the hold releases and everything held is paid. Not cured: Step 4.

Step 4, Suspension: your links stop attributing new customers. Existing customers keep earning for you. 60 days to cure; cured: reinstated with everything paid; not cured: termination under section 10 for cause.

A record that has been clean for 12 months returns to Step 1. Three Step-3 holds in 24 months is a Serious Cause.

8. Grounds for holds, suspension and termination

8.1 Ordinary grounds (ladder applies): any section 6 rule; refund rate above 20 percent on your customers for 60 days; inaccurate tax or identity information at Stripe; a Stripe account that cannot receive payouts.

8.2 Serious Cause (we may go straight to suspension, and to termination after the appeal in section 9): fraud (fake customers, stolen cards, chargeback patterns, refund cycling); illegal content or conduct; impersonating WiredType or a WiredType customer; selling or leaking customer data; a court order or a Stripe or card-network requirement; three Step-3 holds in 24 months.

8.3 Never a ground: the size of your business, your success, your rate, competing honestly with other Partners or with us, declining to promote a product, or a complaint without evidence.

9. Appeals and dispute resolution

9.1 Appeal: within 30 days of any notice you may appeal in writing from your Partner inbox. An independent review, separate from the automated rule that issued the notice, answers within 15 business days with a written decision and reasons. Payouts already held stay held during the appeal and are released with interest at the Stripe payout date if the appeal succeeds.

9.2 Good-faith talk: if you disagree with the appeal decision, either side may ask for a 30-day negotiation period in writing before anything else.

9.3 Mediation: after that, either side may request mediation (video, one day, a neutral chosen from a recognized mediation service; each side pays its own costs; the mediator's fee is split).

9.4 Arbitration, and what you give up: any dispute not resolved above, including a claim under a statute, is settled by binding individual arbitration instead of a lawsuit. This means that neither of us will have the dispute decided in a court of law by a judge or a jury, and that review of the arbitrator's decision is limited; the arbitrator can award the same damages and relief a court could, subject to these Terms. Either side may instead bring an individual claim in small claims court in Hudson County, New Jersey, if it qualifies there. The arbitration is administered by the American Arbitration Association: under its Employment/Workplace Arbitration Rules if you are an individual acting in your own name, and under its Commercial Arbitration Rules if you are a company or other entity. One arbitrator, by video unless both sides agree otherwise, seated in Newark, New Jersey, applying New Jersey law. Each side bears its own attorney fees unless the arbitrator finds a claim frivolous. Class waiver: you and WiredType bring claims only in an individual capacity, and each of us gives up any right to take part in a class action, class arbitration or other representative proceeding; if 25 or more similar demands are filed by or against affiliates through the same or coordinated counsel, the AAA Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules apply and the cases are administered in batches. Opt-out: you may reject this arbitration section by emailing hello@wiredtype.com from the email address on your account within 30 days after you first accept these Terms (or within 30 days after we notify you of a material change to this section) with your name, your account email and the words "I opt out of arbitration"; opting out changes nothing else in these Terms, and disputes then go to the state or federal courts sitting in Hudson County, New Jersey. A change to this section never applies to a claim that arose before the change.

9.5 One-year limit: a claim must be started within one year after you first knew, or reasonably should have known, of the facts behind it. This shortens New Jersey's longer default period for contract claims. It does not shorten the time for any claim that the law says cannot be shortened, and the year does not run while a written dispute you sent us is still open.

9.6 Nothing here stops either side from seeking a court order to stop infringement, data misuse, or fraud in progress.

10. Leaving and termination

10.1 Your book is yours for life. You never have to keep promoting to keep earning: a Partner who stops promoting, for any length of time, keeps every customer they found, and those customers keep earning for that Partner at the rate in section 3.2 for as long as the account stays open and in good standing (the annual check in section 3.9 keeps the account current; missing it pauses only new attribution, never earnings on customers already found). Leaving means closing your Partner account, which you may do at any time from the dashboard. Earnings cleared through your last day are paid on the next payout. After you close the account, customers you found keep earning for you for 12 months (wind-down), then attribution ends. The wind-down applies only to a closed account (this section and 10.2); a termination for cause is governed by 10.3.

10.2 If we end the program or your participation without cause, the same 12-month wind-down applies, plus 60 days' notice.

10.3 Termination for cause after the ladder and appeal: earnings cleared through the termination date are paid; no wind-down. For Serious Cause involving fraud, earnings from the fraudulent transactions are forfeited; all other cleared earnings are paid.

10.4 We take back a paid commission only by reducing future earnings for a refund or dispute (section 4), or under a court order.

11. Changes to these Terms

We give you 30 days' notice by email before any change. A change that lowers a rate or narrows a benefit applies only to customers whose first purchase through you comes after it takes effect. A material change needs your fresh acceptance (section 14). You may leave before it takes effect with the section 10.1 wind-down. Each version is dated and archived; your dashboard shows the version you accepted.

12. Marketing materials, trademarks, data

License: you get a revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license to use the marketing kit we generate for you (cards, handouts, scripts, templates, the WiredType name and logo as they appear in it) only to promote WiredType, only in the form we provide, resized but not altered. We may change or withdraw any asset at any time. You gain no ownership of our marks or content and will not register, imitate or contest them. When your participation ends, or when we ask by email, the license ends and you remove our assets from every channel you control within 48 hours. Takedown: if we tell you that a page, post or message of yours breaks these Terms, infringes someone's rights, or must come down under a copyright notice-and-takedown law, you take it down within 48 hours and confirm in writing. Anything you add beyond our kit is yours or licensed to you, and you are responsible for claims that it infringes. Data: we give you counts and amounts only (visits, starts, results, customers, earnings). We never give you a customer's name, email, address or result, and you will not try to identify anyone from what we show. You are not our data processor under GDPR or UK GDPR; each of us is an independent controller of the personal data it collects itself (your own list and analytics on your side; your account data on ours). You will not add anyone's personal information to a WiredType link or route our links through your own tracking. About you, we keep your account details, your acceptance record (section 14), your commission ledger, a hashed record of the connection you sign in from (used only to detect self-referral), and your messages with us, as our Privacy Policy describes. Your partner page at wiredtype.com/p/<handle> is public and shows your first name, your type and its line, your booking link if you add one, and the disclosure. You must follow our privacy policy and the law where you promote, including CAN-SPAM, TCPA and GDPR where they apply.

13. Warranties, liability

The program is provided as is. Except for commissions you have earned and we have not paid, for fraud or willful misconduct, and for anything the law does not let us limit, our total liability to you for all claims about the program is capped at the commissions we paid you in the twelve months before you first told us in writing about the claim, or $500, whichever is greater. We are not liable for lost profits, or for indirect, incidental, special or punitive damages, or for a loss caused by a tracking failure, an outage, or a change by a third-party platform, except where New Jersey law does not allow that exclusion. Nothing here limits a liability that New Jersey law makes non-waivable. You are responsible for your own promotion, taxes and compliance, and you indemnify Kevin Weller and WiredType against third-party claims that arise from content you create beyond our kit or from promotion that breaks section 6.

14. Legal

Independent contractor; no exclusivity; assignment only with consent; you consent to the transfer to WiredType LLC described in section 1, which takes effect on October 15, 2026; severability; entire agreement with the WiredType Terms of Service and Privacy Policy; notices by email to the addresses on file; New Jersey law. Electronic acceptance: these Terms are an electronic record under the federal E-SIGN Act and New Jersey's Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. By checking "I have read and accept the Partner Terms" and submitting, you sign electronically, you agree to deal with us electronically, and you confirm you can print or save a copy. We keep, for at least six years after your participation ends, a record of the exact version you accepted (its date and content hash), the time, your account, your IP address and browser, and each renewal or re-acceptance; you can see the version and date in your dashboard. Changes: an operational change (wording, examples, an address) takes effect no sooner than 14 days after an email to your account with a link to the new version, and continuing in the program after that date is your acceptance. A material change (rates or how they are computed, section 9, section 12, section 13, your data, or your disclosure duties) requires a fresh acceptance from you before it applies to you, and a change to section 9 restarts its 30-day opt-out window. Every prior version stays archived, and a dispute is decided under the version you had accepted when it arose.
