5. Creative
Affiliates are prohibited from altering any of the creative or text links provided by Coliving.com. We do not permit the distribution of our marketing collateral on adult content websites or any website promoting illegal activities, as well as any site that incites racial hatred and bigotry. We take these matters very seriously.

9. Local Laws
Affiliates will take all commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all local, regional, territorial and national laws in all jurisdictions in which its Products are marketed and sold.
10. Tracking and Eligible Bookings
New residents must sign up within 30 days of clicking an affiliate link and create their first booking within 30 days of signup. Existing residents, including residents making repeat bookings, must create a booking within 30 days of their latest valid affiliate click. Clicking an affiliate link again opens a fresh 30-day booking window, including when a new resident has missed the original booking deadline. Returning directly to Coliving.com during a valid window still qualifies. When more than one affiliate link is clicked before booking, the latest valid affiliate click receives the credit. Later direct bookings outside a valid window do not qualify. There is no lifetime commission.
11. Affiliate Dashboard
Easily access your performance data in your private Affiliate Dashboard. View invites, bookings, payouts, statistics, affiliate links and more.
12. Affiliate Links
Share your tracked affiliate link so referrals can be credited correctly. A direct visit without a valid affiliate referral does not create a new commission entitlement.
13. Commission and Payouts
The standard affiliate rate is 50% of the commission Coliving.com actually receives on an eligible completed stay. This is not 50% of the rent or total booking value. Where a host pays a fixed commission, the affiliate earns 50% of that commission. Rewards go only to the affiliate; resident cashback and reward sharing are not offered.
Commission becomes available in the affiliate's Coliving Wallet after the eligible stay is completed and the resident has moved out. Affiliates must request a payout once their available balance reaches $100. Payouts are sent by bank transfer only, within 3 business days of the request. Payouts are not automatic.
14. Cancellations, Refunds and Adjustments
If a stay is cancelled or refunded, affiliate commission is adjusted to reflect the final commission Coliving.com actually receives. Any corresponding amount already credited is reversed from the affiliate's Coliving Wallet. A reversal can make the wallet balance negative, and future earnings cover the difference.
15. Affiliate System Uptime
The Site shall maintain accessible and in a functional condition in accordance with the service level terms of the host of the site.
16. Content and Info
The Site, it's Affiliates and Strategic Relations shall maintain accurate records and reports with respect to all Prospects and Customers obtained as a result of the affiliate partnership.
17. Termination and Suspension
Either the affiliate or Coliving.com may end participation at any time. There is no one-year term or automatic renewal. No new referrals qualify after participation ends. Eligible referrals made before termination remain payable after the stay is completed, except in cases of fraud or a breach of the program terms. Once all pending stays and adjustments are settled, the affiliate may request their remaining positive balance even if it is below $100.
Payouts are paused during an investigation of suspected fraud. If the affiliate is cleared, valid earnings are released. These program terms apply to all existing and new affiliates.
18. Choice of Law
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the conflict of law provisions thereof, and the state and federal courts located in that state shall have exclusive jurisdiction over the parties for the purposes of adjudicating all disputes that may arise under this Agreement. Consultant hereby waives all objections to venue and personal jurisdiction in those forums for such disputes.
