Affiliate Terms, version 2026-10-01

Effective date: 1 October 2026
Terms version: 2026-10-01

These Affiliate Terms apply between meetergo GmbH, Hauptstraße 44, 40789 Monheim am Rhein, Germany, and the person who refers new customers to meetergo through their personal invite link (the Affiliate). They supplement the meetergo Terms of Service and the Privacy Notice. Approved business Partners follow the Partner Program Terms instead.

The German version is binding. This English version is provided for convenience only.

1. Joining

Anyone with a meetergo account can join. Participation starts the first time the Affiliate opens their invite link under Refer in the dashboard. To receive a payout, the Affiliate accepts these terms when setting up payouts.

The Affiliate can join as a business or as a private person. A company that is an approved meetergo Partner refers only through the Partner portal. A referred company never earns both Affiliate commission and Partner compensation.

2. Commission

The Affiliate earns 20% of the eligible net revenue meetergo actually collects from a referred company.

• Duration: 12 months from the referred company's first paid invoice.
• Cap: at most EUR 10,000 of commission per referred company.
• Eligible revenue: subscription and seats, net of discounts. Not eligible: VAT, usage-based charges (for example telephony, SMS or AI credits), add-ons, setup fees, and amounts that were refunded, credited, charged back or not paid.

The rate, duration and cap are fixed when a company is attributed. Later changes to these terms do not change them for that company.

3. Offer for referred companies

A new company that signs up through the link gets a discount on its subscription:

• Monthly plan: 50% off the first 3 months.
• Annual plan: 12.5% off the first annual invoice, once.

Each subscription gets exactly one discount. The referral discount does not combine with launch codes, coupons or other offers. If several apply, the company gets the better one.

4. Attribution

• The first valid referral counts. A later referral does not replace it.
• A company that has already paid meetergo cannot be attributed afterwards.
• meetergo can correct a missing or wrong attribution within 7 days of the company's signup. No change is possible after that.
• Self-referrals are excluded. Signals include the same company, the same business email domain, the same payment card, or the same IP address within 24 hours.

meetergo resolves conflicts from its stored, dated records.

5. Hold and payouts

Each commission amount is held for 30 days after the underlying invoice is paid. It becomes available only if the payment was not refunded or disputed in that time.

meetergo pays available commission once a month, usually on the 4th. The Affiliate chooses how to be paid:

Smaller amounts carry over to the next month. meetergo can hold a payout for review if payment or tax details are missing, the current version of these terms has not been accepted, abuse is suspected, or a legally required check, such as sanctions screening, requires it. Once resolved, the amount is paid with the next run. While bank transfers are not yet switched on, available commission stays saved or can be paid as credit on request.

6. Refunds, chargebacks and netting

If a referred company's payment is refunded, credited or charged back, the commission on it lapses. If it was already paid out, meetergo nets the amount against future commission. In case of fraud or deliberate abuse, meetergo can ask for repayment.

7. Prohibited behaviour

The Affiliate must promote meetergo honestly and lawfully. In particular, the following is not allowed:

• self-referrals and referrals between related companies or accounts;
• spam, bought contact lists, and advertising without the required consent;
• paid search ads on the term "meetergo" or similar spellings, and domains or accounts that can be confused with meetergo;
• cookie stuffing, hidden links, and any attribution without a real referral;
• misleading claims about prices, features or the discount, and acting in meetergo's name.

After a breach, meetergo can cancel the affected commission, suspend participation and end it.

8. Self-billing

The Affiliate and meetergo agree that meetergo issues self-billed credit notes (Gutschriften) under § 14 (2) sentence 2 of the German VAT Act (UStG) for the commission. The Affiliate does not issue its own invoice for this commission. Each document carries the word "Gutschrift". Consent is stored at payout setup with the terms version, time and IP address.

• VAT: meetergo shows VAT only if the Affiliate says they invoice with VAT and provides a tax number or VAT ID. Small businesses under § 19 UStG and private persons get a credit note without VAT. For businesses in the EU with a valid VAT ID and for businesses outside the EU, the reverse charge applies. Private persons outside Germany get a payout statement instead of a credit note.
• Objection: The Affiliate can object to any credit note. The objection removes its effect as an invoice (§ 14 (2) sentence 3 UStG). meetergo cancels it and issues a new credit note with the corrected details.
• Current details: The Affiliate must keep name, address and tax details correct and current, and update them before the next payout run. The Affiliate is responsible for the consequences of wrong details.

The Affiliate can withdraw consent for the future. Payouts then pause until they consent again. Available commission stays saved.

9. Private persons

Private persons never receive a credit note with VAT. For them, commission can be taxable income under § 22 No. 3 of the German Income Tax Act (EStG). Paying that tax is the Affiliate's own duty. meetergo does not give tax advice.

10. Finder only, no agency

The Affiliate acts as a finder (Tippgeber). There is no duty to refer anyone and there are no targets or minimums. Participation is not exclusive. The Affiliate has no authority to negotiate, make offers, sign contracts or make statements for meetergo. No employment, commercial agency or partnership relationship arises.

11. Changes and ending

meetergo can change these terms for the future and announces changes in advance in the dashboard or by email. A payout requires that the Affiliate has accepted the current version. Until then, available commission stays saved.

Either side can end participation at any time. Deleting the meetergo account also ends it. Valid commission already earned remains and is paid under these terms, except in case of fraud or a material breach. No new commission accrues after the end.

12. Existing Cello referrals

Before this program, meetergo's referral program ran on Cello. Companies attributed through Cello before this program started keep the commission rate of their Cello campaign. As with Cello, commission has no time limit and runs until the cap is reached. For referrals from the user campaign the cap is EUR 10,000 per company; partner campaigns keep the cap of their campaign. All new referrals follow these terms.

13. Final provisions

German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Private persons also keep the mandatory protections of their country of residence. If the Affiliate is a merchant, the place of jurisdiction is Monheim am Rhein. If a provision is invalid, the rest remain in force.
