Terms

1. What you earn

You earn a fixed amount for every new customer you send us. The amount depends on the plan they buy and is listed for every plan on your Partner page in the panel. It equals 60% of the plan's normal monthly price, before any tax, with a cap of USD 30 per customer.

You earn it once the customer's payments for that server cover it: straight away when they pay the normal price, and usually at their second month when they bought with a discount such as a first-month offer. Discounts never reduce your commission. Add-ons and later renewals do not earn a commission. We show amounts in USD, EUR and GBP, and pay in the currency of your account.

2. Who counts as a new customer

Someone with no earlier PlayNHost account or paid service, who buys through your link within 90 days of clicking it. If two partners are involved, the most recent link wins.

You cannot earn on your own purchases, on purchases by people in your household, or on accounts created to collect a commission.

One sale earns one reward. A customer who joined through another customer's referral link (the credit programme in the panel) earns you nothing as a partner.

3. How a sale is credited

We credit a sale in two ways: through your link, when the visitor allowed marketing cookies on playnhost.com, or through your partner code, when the customer types it at checkout. Your code gives the customer our current new-customer offer and needs no cookie. If a visitor declined cookies and did not use your code, we cannot credit the sale and we do not work around their choice. This is the law in the UK and the EU and it is the visitor's decision, not ours.

Add a tag to your link (the sub tag in the link builder) to see which video, post or page sent each customer.

4. When you get paid

Each commission is held for 30 days, then becomes available. You can withdraw once you have USD 25 available. You ask for a payout from your Partner page in the panel. Payout is by PayPal, Wise or bank transfer, and we charge no fee for it (your payment provider's own charges may apply).

We pay within 7 days of your request. For a new partner, the first withdrawal opens 60 days after the first sale and is limited to USD 100. After that, the normal rules apply.

5. When a commission is cancelled

Only if the payment that earned it is refunded, charged back or confirmed fraudulent within 120 days, if the customer leaves before their payments cover it (we wait up to 90 days), or if it is a repeat payment instead of a customer's first. We email you the reason each time.

If this happens after we paid you, we take it off your future earnings. A customer who cancels or does not renew later never affects your commission.

6. Rules

Say that your link is an affiliate link (for example "affiliate link" or "#ad") wherever you post it.

Do not bid on our brand name in paid search ("playnhost" and close misspellings). Other advertising is fine. Do not use coupon or cashback sites without asking us first.

Do not make claims we do not make ourselves. Link to the game page for prices instead of quoting them. No spam, no fake reviews, no pretending to be PlayNHost, no hiding where a link goes. Follow the law and the rules of the sites where you post.

7. If we think a rule was broken

We tell you in writing what we found and why, and give you 14 days to answer. We still pay commissions on sales that were not affected. We will not close an account that has a balance without telling you the reason.

8. Changes, data and tax

We give 30 days' notice by email before changing these terms. Commissions you have already earned are paid under the terms they were earned under.

You see clicks, sign-ups and sales. We do not give you customers' personal details. You are responsible for your own taxes on what we pay you. These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales.
