These terms govern the Contractor License Now Partner Program (the “Program”). The Program covers referrals for S-corp conversions and business entity filings provided by Contractor License Now and our sister company CorpNation (together, “we” or “us”). By applying to or taking part in the Program, you (“Partner”) agree to these terms.
1. How you earn
You earn a flat commission for each new client you refer who buys one of these services:
- S-corp conversion (moving an existing business to an S-corp): $499 per client
- New S-corp or corporation filing: $229 per client
- LLC filing: $120 per client
Commissions are paid only on these services. We may change commission amounts for future referrals with notice to you; changes never reduce commissions you’ve already earned.
2. What counts as your referral
- The client must be new to us. Existing clients, and people already in active conversation with us before your referral, don’t qualify.
- The client must either (a) visit our site through your referral link and buy within 90 days, or (b) give us your referral code before they sign up.
- If more than one partner refers the same client, the first partner whose link or code we recorded gets the credit.
- You may not refer yourself, your own business, or members of your household.
- We decide attribution in good faith based on our records, and our decision is final.
3. When you get paid
- A commission is earned when the referred client pays us in full.
- Commissions become payable after a 30-day refund window. If the client is refunded, cancels, or charges back, the commission is voided; if it was already paid, we may deduct it from future payouts.
- We pay monthly by Zelle or PayPal once your payable balance reaches $50.
- We must have your completed IRS Form W-9 before we send any payout. We’ll issue tax forms such as a 1099 where the law requires. You’re responsible for your own taxes.
4. How you represent us
- Be honest. Don’t promise specific tax savings, guaranteed results, approval timelines, or anything we haven’t told you in writing.
- Don’t give legal or tax advice on our behalf. Send clients to us for questions about whether a service is right for them.
- Tell the people you refer that you may be paid for the referral.
- Follow the rules of your own profession. If you’re a CPA, attorney, enrolled agent, insurance licensee, or other licensed professional, it’s your responsibility to confirm you’re allowed to accept referral fees and to make any required disclosures.
- Don’t send spam, make unsolicited robocalls or texts, or use misleading advertising.
- Don’t bid on our business names (Contractor License Now, Contractor License School, CorpNation) in paid search ads, and don’t create websites or social accounts that look like ours.
- Use our name and logo only in materials we provide or approve.
5. Your relationship with us
You’re an independent referral partner, not our employee, agent, or joint venturer. You can’t make promises, sign agreements, or accept payments on our behalf. Clients you refer contract directly with us.
6. Privacy
Keep any information about referred clients confidential. Your partner dashboard shows limited details about your referrals; don’t share your private dashboard link with anyone.
7. Ending participation
Either of us may end your participation at any time by notice. Commissions you earned before the end date remain payable under these terms. If you break these terms, we may end your participation immediately and withhold commissions connected to the violation.
8. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. We’ll post the new version on this page and, for material changes, email you. Continuing to refer clients after a change means you accept the updated terms.
9. Limits and governing law
Our total liability to you under the Program is limited to the commissions owed to you. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California.
