This Blaze Affiliate Program Agreement (“Agreement”) governs your participation in the Blaze Affiliate Program (the “Program”), which is operated by Almanac Labs, Inc. (dba Blaze.ai) (“Blaze,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). By joining the Program, you (“Affiliate,” “you,” or “your”) agree to comply with the terms outlined here.
This Agreement applies only to the Program and does not change or replace the terms of any other agreement you may have with Blaze for other products or services. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and Blaze’s general Terms of Service, solely as it relates to the Program, this Agreement will control.
As an Affiliate, you are responsible for ensuring that you, as well as any of your employees, contractors, and agents, comply with these terms.
“Blaze Site” refers to the Blaze website and properties, including the website located at https://blaze.ai.
“Your Site” refers to any websites, channels, or platforms you use to promote Blaze.
“Licensed Materials” means Blaze trademarks, logos, creatives, and marketing materials we provide or authorize for use in the Program.
To enroll in the Program, you must complete an application in the affiliate portal. This can be done by: (i) visiting https://blaze.ai/affiliates and selecting “Apply Now”; (ii) completing the registration process; and (iii) agreeing to the terms of this Agreement.
Blaze reviews all applications and reserves the right to accept or decline any application at its sole discretion. Participation is not available where prohibited by law or to any person or entity subject to sanctions or trade restrictions, or who is otherwise ineligible as provided in this Agreement. By submitting your application, you represent and warrant that you are not (and are not owned or controlled by) any sanction person or entity or located in any embargoed or comprehensively sanctioned jurisdiction.
Blaze may suspend or terminate your participation in the Program, at any time and in its sole discretion, if you do not comply with this Agreement.
Upon acceptance into the Program, unique tracking links (“Links”) will be made available to you through the affiliate dashboard. Your use of the Links is subject, at all times, to the terms of this Agreement, including the limited license in Section 10.
Standard Affiliate Commissions – Monthly Plans
Subject to the attribution rules in Section 4), for each person you refer to Blaze using your Links who completes their first paid subscription of a covered Blaze product (each a “Referral”), you will earn Affiliate Commissions as follows:
Multi-Month Plans
If a Referral purchases a multi-month plan (e.g., quarterly or annual), you will receive a 30% Commission on the initial payment; subsequent renewals of multi-month plans are commissionable at the 15% recurring rate for so long as the Program remains active.
General Terms
Processing Timeline
Commissions typically take between thirty (30) to ninety (90) days to process to account for refunds and fraud review. Approved Commissions are paid on a regular monthly cadence as specified in the dashboard.
Thresholds; Currency; Method
Payments of Commissions are made in the currency and via the payout method specified by Blaze. Blaze may delay or withhold payment while investigating suspected violations, fraud, or tracking anomalies.
Tax Forms; Withholding
You are responsible for all taxes arising from the issuance of Commissions to you. Blaze may require a completed Form W-9, W-8BEN, or other tax documentation prior to payment and may withhold amounts as required by law.
Statements
Activity statements are available in the dashboard. Blaze’s records govern the calculation of Commissions.
Payout Methods
You must maintain a valid payout method supported by the Program to receive Commissions. If you do not provide payout details within twelve (12) months of an action generating a right to Commissions, you forfeit payment of Commissions for that action. Your use of any third-party payout service is subject to its separate terms.
Attribution Standard
Referrals are credited on a last-click basis to the last valid Link clicked prior to the qualifying trial signup, provided the trial is initiated within thirty (30) days after the click. A Commission is earned only if the referred user upgrades to a paid subscription within thirty (30) days after starting the trial. Referrals and associated Commissions are not split or transferred.
Reassignment
Blaze may, in its discretion, reassign credit or award full or partial Commissions where an Affiliate’s education, training, or coaching materially caused a purchase despite last-click mechanics.

Any dispute regarding tracking or attribution must be submitted in writing within thirty (30) days after the disputed transaction first appears in your dashboard. Blaze’s good-faith determination governs.
