Deadline Shield
Program terms summary

Deadline Shield Sales Partner terms

This page records the commercial structure of the program. A separate written agreement accepted by Duo Dynamics IT Ltd and the partner is required before commission payout. Review the Sales Partner Agreement form.

Product eligibility

Sales Partners are commissioned only on eligible Deadline Shield Operations subscriptions. Solo, Business, Pro, taxes, refunds, credits, fees, and non-subscription services are not commissionable unless a signed written amendment says otherwise.

Commission

For an originated eligible Operations account, the partner earns 30% of collected subscription revenue during the customer’s first 12 paid months. Eligible collected renewal revenue after that period earns 10% while the customer remains paying and the partner remains eligible under the signed agreement.

Collected-revenue basis

Commission is earned only on money actually received and retained by Deadline Shield. A 14-day clearance period applies after each payment. Refunds, reversals, disputes, or chargebacks during clearance cancel the related commission. A later ordinary customer cancellation stops future commission but does not claw back commission already validly paid unless the signed agreement provides otherwise for fraud, abuse, or material breach.

Payout schedule

Cleared commission is scheduled for the next regular payout run on the 1st or 15th. Timing may move to the next business day when operationally necessary.

Attribution

An account is normally attributed through the partner’s unique referral code or other documented evidence accepted by Deadline Shield. The partner must have originated the opportunity. Self-referrals, duplicate claims, reassigned existing opportunities, fraudulent activity, or attempts to manipulate attribution are not eligible.

Partner status and paperwork

Before payout, the partner must be approved, have a signed partner/independent-contractor agreement on file, and provide a completed W-9 or other required tax documentation. The program does not include a salary, hourly wage, retainer, guaranteed draw, employee benefits, or reimbursement of ordinary selling expenses unless separately agreed in writing.

Independent business relationship

The parties intend an independent business relationship, subject to the actual signed agreement and applicable law. Nothing on this webpage by itself creates an employment relationship, agency authority, franchise, joint venture, or power to bind Duo Dynamics IT Ltd.

Sales conduct

Partners must represent Deadline Shield accurately, avoid promises that conflict with the product or legal terms, never describe AI findings or reminders as guaranteed, and must not provide legal, accounting, insurance, regulatory, or other professional advice on behalf of Deadline Shield.

Changes and termination

The signed agreement will control how either party may end the relationship and how changes apply. Existing earned/cleared commission and renewal treatment will be governed by that agreement.

Not a signed contract. This page is a program summary and implementation reference. Before paying outside sales partners, Duo Dynamics IT Ltd should use a reviewed written agreement appropriate to the partner’s jurisdiction and actual working relationship.
