2. The Partner Programme

2.1  GlobalCharge Limited operates a partner programme that enables approved merchants and brands (Partners) to distribute promotional Offers to consumers through the Perkly API distribution network.

2.2  GlobalCharge Limited distributes Partner Offers to API Clients who present them to their End Users. GlobalCharge Limited does not guarantee a minimum number of impressions, clicks, or Qualifying Transactions.

2.3  Participation in the Programme is subject to approval by GlobalCharge Limited and may be revoked at any time in accordance with these Terms.

3. Eligibility & Onboarding

3.1  To participate, the Partner must: (a) be a legitimate business entity registered in a jurisdiction acceptable to GlobalCharge Limited; (b) hold all licences and regulatory approvals required to operate its business and run the proposed Offers in its target markets; and (c) not be subject to any sanctions or export controls.

3.2  GlobalCharge Limited may request supporting documentation (company registration, VAT certificates, regulatory licences) at any point. Failure to provide satisfactory documentation within 14 days is grounds for suspension.

3.3  The Partner agrees to keep its contact and company details in the Partner Portal accurate and up-to-date. Material changes (change of legal entity, acquisition, insolvency) must be notified within 5 business days.

4. Offers & Content Standards

4.1  All Offers must comply with the Content Guidelines and applicable law, including but not limited to advertising standards, consumer protection rules, and financial promotions regulations in each target market.

4.2  The Partner represents and warrants that: (a) it has the authority to make the Offer; (b) the Offer accurately describes the promotion, its terms, and any exclusions; (c) the Offer does not infringe any third-party intellectual property rights; and (d) the Offer is not misleading, defamatory, or otherwise unlawful.

4.3  The Partner is solely responsible for honouring every Offer that is accepted by an End User. Failure to honour Offers, customer complaints, or regulatory action arising from an Offer are the Partner's sole responsibility and liability.

4.4  GlobalCharge Limited may remove any Offer from distribution at any time without notice if it reasonably believes the Offer violates these Terms, applicable law, or the Content Guidelines.

4.5  The Partner must not submit Offers that: (a) promote illegal goods or services; (b) make false or unsubstantiated claims; (c) target vulnerable consumers in a harmful way; (d) circumvent the masked-URL tracking system by embedding direct URLs in offer text; or (e) conflict with exclusivity arrangements previously agreed with GlobalCharge Limited in writing.

5. Commission & Fees

5.1  Performance Commission. For each Qualifying Transaction generated through the Platform, the Partner shall pay GlobalCharge Limited a commission calculated as a percentage of the net order value ("Commission Rate") as individually agreed during the partner onboarding process and confirmed in the partner's account. The Commission Rate may be amended by written mutual agreement.

5.2  Minimum Monthly Fee. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, no minimum monthly fee applies during the first 90 days of partnership. Thereafter, GlobalCharge Limited reserves the right to introduce a minimum monthly fee with 30 days' written notice.

5.3  Invoicing. GlobalCharge Limited will issue a commission invoice at the end of each calendar month summarising confirmed Qualifying Transactions. Payment is due within 30 days of invoice date. Late payments bear interest at 8% above the Bank of England base rate per annum, accruing daily.

5.4  Disputed Transactions. The Partner may dispute any line item on an invoice within 14 days of receipt by providing written evidence. Undisputed amounts remain payable by the due date. GlobalCharge Limited's tracking data is presumed correct unless the Partner provides credible contrary evidence.

5.5  Taxes. All amounts are exclusive of VAT and other applicable taxes. Where VAT is chargeable, GlobalCharge Limited will add it to the invoice at the applicable rate. Each party is responsible for its own income taxes and withholding obligations.

5.6  Self-generated Transactions. Commission is not payable on transactions generated by the Partner itself, its employees, or any party acting on its behalf. GlobalCharge Limited may deduct such transactions from commission calculations if identified.

6. Attribution & Tracking

6.1  GlobalCharge Limited uses masked redirect URLs and signed tracking tokens to attribute End User click-throughs to individual Offers and Partners. A Qualifying Transaction is one that: (a) originated from a tracked click-through on a Partner Offer; (b) completed within the attribution window (default: 30 days from click, unless otherwise agreed); and (c) was not subsequently refunded or charged back.

6.2  The Partner must not interfere with, disable, or attempt to circumvent the tracking mechanism. Any tampering with tracking will result in immediate suspension and forfeiture of any unpaid commission.

6.3  GlobalCharge Limited will provide the Partner with access to impression and click-through data in the Partner Portal. Transaction-level conversion data is provided on a reasonable-endeavours basis and is subject to the Partner's own analytics integration.

6.4  Last-click attribution applies by default. Where multiple Offers from the same Partner are shown, the most recent click is attributed.

7. Offer Approval & Editorial Control

7.1  All Offers are subject to review and approval by GlobalCharge Limited before going live. Submission does not guarantee approval or distribution. GlobalCharge Limited will endeavour to review Offers within 3 business days.

7.2  GlobalCharge Limited reserves the right to reject or request amendments to any Offer for any reason, including but not limited to: non-compliance with Content Guidelines, legal concerns, conflict with other Partners, or editorial judgement.

7.3  GlobalCharge Limited may pause, modify the targeting of, or withdraw an approved Offer at any time if circumstances change (e.g. regulatory concern, partner suspension, or API Client feedback).

8. Data & Privacy

8.1  GlobalCharge Limited does not share End User personal data (names, email addresses, card numbers) with Partners. The Partner receives only aggregated impression, click, and conversion metrics.

8.2  Any personal data collected directly by the Partner from End Users who follow Offer links is the Partner's sole responsibility. The Partner must process such data in compliance with applicable data protection law (including UK GDPR and EU GDPR where applicable) and must maintain a compliant privacy notice.

8.3  GlobalCharge Limited processes Partner contact data as data controller for the purposes of managing the Programme. The Platform's Privacy Policy at https://perkly.dev/privacy applies.

9. Intellectual Property

9.1  The Partner grants GlobalCharge Limited a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide licence to display, reproduce, and distribute the Offer content (including brand name, logo, images, and promotional text) through the Platform and to API Clients for the duration of the Offer.

9.2  GlobalCharge Limited retains all rights in the Platform, Portal, API, and associated technology. Nothing in these Terms transfers any ownership of intellectual property to the Partner.

9.3  The Partner may not use the Perkly name, logo, or branding without prior written consent from GlobalCharge Limited.

10. Liability

10.1  Partner's liability. The Partner indemnifies GlobalCharge Limited against any claims, losses, fines, or regulatory action arising from: (a) the content of a Partner Offer; (b) the Partner's failure to honour an Offer; (c) any breach of applicable law by the Partner; or (d) infringement of a third party's intellectual property rights by the Offer content.

10.2  Platform's liability. To the maximum extent permitted by law, GlobalCharge Limited's aggregate liability to the Partner under or in connection with these Terms is limited to the total commission paid by the Partner in the 3 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

10.3  GlobalCharge Limited is not liable for: (a) indirect or consequential loss; (b) loss of revenue, profit, or business opportunity; (c) failure of the Platform caused by third-party systems; or (d) any Qualifying Transaction that is disputed by an End User and results in a refund or chargeback.

11. Term & Termination

11.1  These Terms take effect on the date the Partner application is approved and continue until terminated by either party on 30 days' written notice.

11.3  On termination: (a) all approved Offers are withdrawn from distribution; (b) any outstanding commission invoices become immediately due; (c) the Partner's access to the Partner Portal is revoked; and (d) each party returns or destroys the other's confidential information on request.

11.4  Clauses 5 (Commission), 9 (IP), 10 (Liability), 11.3, and 13 survive termination.

12. Changes to These Terms

GlobalCharge Limited may update these Partner Terms by giving at least 30 days' written notice (by email to the registered contact) before the changes take effect. Continued participation in the Programme after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. If the Partner does not accept the changes, it may terminate the Agreement before the effective date without penalty.
