Wordfence Marketing Affiliate Program Rules

The following Wordfence Marketing Affiliate Program Rules (“Rules“) apply to Your acceptance into and participation in the Wordfence Marketing Affiliate Program (the “Program“). These Rules are subject to and incorporated into the Wordfence Marketing Affiliate Program Agreement (together with these Rules, the “Agreement“). If You have not done so already, please review the Wordfence Marketing Affiliate Program Agreement found at https://www.wordfence.com/affiliate-agreement/. Any capitalized terms used in these Rules that are not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement.

  1. Payments, Commissions, and Refunds

    Sales: Defiant will track sales attributed to Your marketing using a marketing affiliate code, referral URL, and timestamp associated with Your account and the users session (the “Marketing Affiliate Referral ID“). The Marketing Affiliate Referral ID will expire every sixty (60) days, and if Defiant chooses to extend the Term, we will renew the Marketing Affiliate Referral ID. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement:

    1. We will pay You a $50 commission for each subscription to the Wordfence Premium, Care, or Response services sold in connection with Your unique Marketing Affiliate Referral ID.
    2. We will pay You a $50 commission for each subscription to the Wordfence CLI service sold and an additional commission as follows for additional sites sold in connection with Your unique Marketing Affiliate Referral ID:

      1. 101-1,000 sites – $50 per 100 sites
      2. 1,001-10,000 sites – $25 per 100 sites
      3. 10,001-100,000 sites – $12.50 per 100 sites

    Refunds: If any sale attributed to Your Marketing Affiliate Referral ID is refunded within sixty (60) days of the date of the sale, You will not be due a commission for the refunded sale. We will deduct any commission amount attributed to a refunded sale from the total due in Your account.

    Defiant reserves the right to withhold or reject any commission where Defiant suspects that the sale was fraudulent, suspicious, or that You or a third-party were acting in bad faith. We will reject the commission for any sale resulting from the use of click fraud, cookie fraud, or which is made through a website with the primary purpose of offering discounts or coupons.
