Synthesys Affiliate Program Terms
Last updated 2026-10-15 · Version 2026-11
1. Who we are and how these terms work
1.1 The Synthesys Affiliate Program (the “program”) is run by Nooveau Media Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales with company number 11675708, whose registered office is at 111 Watling Gate 1, 297-303 Edgware Road, London, England, NW9 6NB. We trade as Synthesys at synthesys.io. “We”, “us” and “our” mean Nooveau Media Ltd. “You” means the person or business that joins the program.
1.2 You accept these terms when you tick the terms box and press Become an affiliate in your Synthesys account. We record the version you accepted and the time.
1.3 These terms add to our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. If they conflict on anything about the program, these terms apply.
1.4 In these terms:
- Customer means a Synthesys account credited to you under section 4.
- Plan payment means a payment for a Synthesys subscription plan made through our standard checkout: monthly, yearly, or the extra charged when a customer moves to a bigger plan.
- Net amount means what the customer actually paid us for the plan, excluding VAT, GST and sales tax, after discounts, and less any refund or chargeback.
- Commission means your share of a net amount under section 6.
- Dashboard means your affiliate page in the app, at app.synthesys.io/affiliate.
- Link means a synthesys.io or app.synthesys.io address carrying your link name. Code means a discount code you create in your dashboard.
2. Who can join
2.1 You can join if you have a Synthesys account, are at least 18 years old, and can enter into a binding contract.
2.2 There is no application or approval step. We may refuse or close an affiliate account under section 15.
2.3 You do not need a paid plan to join.
2.4 One affiliate account per person or business. If you join for a business, you confirm you are allowed to bind it.
2.5 Our employees and contractors cannot earn commission.
2.6 Your account and payout details must be true and kept up to date.
3. Your link name, link and codes
3.1 You pick your link name once. It cannot be changed later. It must not contain “Synthesys” or anything close to it, someone else’s trade mark, or anything misleading or offensive. We may refuse or remove a name that breaks this rule.
3.2 Your link is synthesys.io/?via=yourname. You can add ?via=yourname to any page on synthesys.io or app.synthesys.io. You may add &sub= with a short tag (for example &sub=youtube) to tell your channels apart. Links that carry your name as ?ref= or ?fpr= work the same way.
3.3 You can have up to two active codes. A code has 4 to 20 letters and numbers. It must not contain “Synthesys” or anything close to it, and it must not be only generic words such as SAVE, DISCOUNT or PROMO.
3.4 A new customer who enters your code in our checkout gets 20% off the first payment of a monthly plan. On a yearly plan the code still credits the customer to you, but gives no extra discount, because yearly plans are already discounted. Codes are for new customers only and cannot be combined with other promotion codes.
3.5 We pay for the discount. Commission is worked out on what the customer actually paid after the discount.
3.6 You can disable a code in your dashboard at any time. We may disable a code at any time, for example if it appears on a coupon site. A disabled code stays retired and nobody can create it again.
4. How customers are credited to you
4.1 When someone clicks your link, our website stores your link name in their browser for 60 days. If they create a Synthesys account within those 60 days, the account is credited to you.
4.2 If someone clicks links from more than one affiliate before creating an account, the last link they clicked within the 60 days counts.
4.3 Once an account is credited to an affiliate, it stays with that affiliate. Later links or codes do not move it. The first affiliate credited keeps the customer.
4.4 If a new customer enters your code at checkout and no affiliate is credited yet, the account is credited to you. If another affiliate is already credited, the customer still gets the discount and the other affiliate keeps the customer.
4.5 An account that has never paid us can be credited once, even if it was created before the click. An account that has already paid us for anything cannot be credited.
4.6 Paid ads. A visit from a paid ad never credits an account to you. We treat a visit as paid when the link carries an advertising click identifier (for example from Google, Microsoft, TikTok, X, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Reddit or Snapchat ads) or a UTM medium that names a paid channel (for example cpc, ppc, display, paid_social). Meta’s fbclid on its own does not make a visit paid, because Meta adds it to ordinary posts too. A Meta ad tagged with a paid UTM medium is still paid. We may approve your paid campaigns in writing; visits from approved campaigns then count. Paid visits still show in your click numbers.
4.7 We can only credit what we can record. We cannot credit a visit when cookies were refused or blocked, when the person later used another browser or device, or when the link was changed or stripped. Codes help in these cases. No commission is due for a referral we could not record.
4.8 Our records decide which affiliate is credited, and we act reasonably when we apply them. If you think a customer is missing, tell us within 60 days of their first payment and we will look into it.
5. What earns commission and what does not
5.1 You earn commission on plan payments made by your customers.
5.2 A plan payment earns only if you are an active affiliate when it is made: after you have joined and accepted these terms, and not while your affiliate account is suspended or closed. A payment made before you join earns nothing, even if the customer came through your link.
5.3 These never earn commission:
- credit packs and any other one-off purchase of credits;
- the “Founder deal” and “Launch deal” offers, and any other offer sold through a payment link;
- custom or enterprise agreements not bought through our standard checkout, unless we agree otherwise in writing;
- the part of any payment that is tax, or that is refunded, charged back or discounted;
- payments covered by section 12 (self-referral);
- payments linked to a breach of these terms.
5.4 Commission is worked out and paid in US dollars.
6. Commission rate
6.1 You earn 50% of the net amount of each plan payment made up to and including 31 December 2026.
6.2 You earn 40% of the net amount of each plan payment made on or after 1 January 2027.
6.3 The rate depends on the date of the payment, not the date the customer signed up. For example, a customer who signs up on 10 December 2026 to Pro monthly at $59 earns you $29.50 on their December payment and $23.60 on their January payment. A yearly plan paid on 20 December 2026 earns 50% of the whole yearly payment.
6.4 Dates and times in these terms are in UTC.
6.5 If we agree a different rate with you in writing, it replaces sections 6.1 and 6.2 for the payments it covers.
6.6 The change from 50% to 40% on 1 January 2027 is part of these terms. We will not send a separate notice for it.
7. How long commission lasts
7.1 Commission continues for as long as the customer keeps paying for a plan, while you remain an active affiliate and the program runs.
7.2 If a customer cancels and later starts a plan again, their new plan payments still earn for you.
7.3 We may change the rate or the duration for future payments under section 17. Commission on payments already made is not affected.
8. Hold and approval
8.1 New commission is on hold for 30 days from the payment date, or 60 days for a yearly plan.
8.2 When the hold ends, the commission is approved, unless the payment was refunded or charged back, or the commission is in review.
8.3 We may put a commission in review when something suggests a breach of these terms: for example a paid-ad visit, a card used by more than one account, a sign-up from the internet address you used when you picked your link name, or a payment that was disputed before its commission was recorded. After review we approve or reverse it, and your dashboard shows the reason. We aim to decide within 30 days.
8.4 Your dashboard shows the status of each commission: on hold, in review, approved, paid, reversed or void.
9. Refunds, chargebacks and clawback
9.1 If a plan payment is refunded in full or in part, its commission is reduced in the same proportion.
9.2 If a customer disputes a payment with their card issuer (a chargeback), its commission is reversed in full. If we win the dispute, the commission is restored.
9.3 If commission was already paid to you, the reversed amount becomes a negative adjustment. It is taken off your next payouts. Your balance can be negative; future commission pays it off first.
9.4 If your affiliate account closes with a negative balance, or the balance stays negative for 12 months, we may ask you to repay it.
10. Payouts
10.1 We pay once a month, on the 5th, for all commission approved by the end of the previous month. If the 5th is not a UK business day, we pay on the next business day.
10.2 You need at least $100 of approved commission to be paid. A smaller balance carries over to the next month.
10.3 We pay through Wise to the email address of your Wise account. If that email has no Wise account, Wise emails you a secure link to enter bank details. We do not pay by PayPal, cheque, cryptocurrency or any other method.
10.4 We send each payout in US dollars. You can choose to receive US dollars, euros, pounds sterling, Canadian dollars or Australian dollars; Wise converts the amount at its rate on the day. We pay Wise’s transfer and conversion fees. Charges made by your own bank are yours.
10.5 We cannot pay you until your payout details are complete: legal name, Wise account email, country, payout currency, whether you are an individual or a business, your company number if you are a business, your VAT number if you are VAT-registered, and the tax confirmation in section 11. A Wise email can belong to one affiliate account only.
10.6 If you change your payout details shortly before a payout, we may hold that payout while we check the change.
10.7 If a payout is not claimed within the time Wise allows, or cannot be delivered, we cancel it and the amount returns to your approved balance for a later payout.
10.8 Each payout appears in your dashboard with the commission it covers, the amount and the Wise reference. You can download your commission history as a CSV file.
10.9 If we pay too much or too little by mistake, we correct it with an adjustment on a later payout. Tell us about a mistake within 60 days of the payout.
10.10 We may hold a payout while we investigate a suspected breach of these terms.
11. Tax and statements
11.1 You are responsible for reporting your commission and paying any tax on it where you live or trade. Before your first payout you confirm this in your dashboard (“I’m responsible for reporting this income and paying any tax on it”).
11.2 We do not deduct tax from payouts unless the law requires us to.
11.3 Commission amounts are stated without VAT.
11.4 Self-billing. For each payout we issue a statement on your behalf that lists the commission it covers. If you are registered for VAT, you agree that:
- (a) we will issue self-billed invoices for the commission we pay you, and you will accept them;
- (b) you will not issue your own sales invoices for that commission;
- (c) you will tell us at once if you stop being registered for VAT, change your VAT number, or transfer your business;
- (d) this self-billing agreement lasts 12 months from the date you add your VAT number and renews for further 12-month periods unless either of us ends it in writing.
Each self-billed invoice will say “This is a self-billed invoice” and show your name, address and VAT number, our name, address and VAT number, the invoice date, a unique number, and the VAT charged (if any). If you are not registered for VAT, the statement is a record of what we paid and why.
11.5 Before paying, we may ask for documents that confirm your identity, address or tax status.
11.6 We keep payout records for at least six years.
12. Self-referral
12.1 You do not earn commission on payments made by:
- you, or any account you create, control or can influence to earn commission;
- people in your household;
- your employer, or a business you own, control or work for;
- anyone paying with a card that you, or your Synthesys account, have used.
12.2 We look for shared email inboxes, shared cards and shared internet addresses. Commission that looks like self-referral goes into review, and we reverse it if it is.
12.3 Deliberate or repeated self-referral is a breach. We may close your affiliate account under section 15.
13. How you may promote Synthesys
13.1 You may promote Synthesys through your own organic content: posts, videos, reviews, tutorials, comparisons, newsletters sent to people who asked to receive them, and communities that allow it. You may use our promotion kit as supplied.
13.2 You must not:
- (a) Bid on our brand. No bidding on “Synthesys”, any misspelling or variant of it, as a keyword or search term, and no use of it in ad text, display URLs, ad account names or app-store ads, on any advertising platform. This closes your affiliate account.
- (b) Hide paid traffic. Paid ads are allowed but do not earn (section 4.6) unless we approve them in writing. Removing click identifiers or UTM tags, or redirecting ad clicks to make them look organic, is a breach.
- (c) Use coupon, deal, voucher, cashback or rebate sites, or browser extensions that insert codes or links.
- (d) Publish your code as a “Synthesys” code. No titles, headings, page addresses or pages made to rank for searches such as “Synthesys promo code”, “Synthesys coupon” or “Synthesys discount”. Codes are for your own audience.
- (e) Spam. No unsolicited email or direct messages, bought or rented lists, comment spam, automated posting, fake accounts or fake engagement.
- (f) Mislead. Say only what is true. Do not promise a free trial (rendering needs a paid plan), earnings or results. Do not invent discounts or deadlines. Quote prices from synthesys.io. Do not claim to be Synthesys, our employee or an official partner. Do not post fake reviews.
- (g) Stuff cookies or force clicks. No setting our tracking without a real, deliberate click: no hidden frames, pop-ups or pop-unders, automatic redirects, ad injection, link hijacking, or look-alike domains.
- (h) Misuse our brand. No domains, app names, social handles or ad accounts containing “Synthesys”. Use our logo only as supplied. Do not pretend to be us.
- (i) Post unlawful or harmful content, or content that breaks the rules of the platform you post on.
- (j) Pay people to sign up. No offering cash, rebates or part of your commission to people who join through your link or code, unless we agree in writing.
14. Disclosure
14.1 Every promotion must make clear that you earn from it. Use “#ad”, “Ad” or “affiliate link” where people see it before they click. In a video, say it out loud and show it on screen.
14.2 Follow the advertising rules where you publish, and the platform’s own branded-content tools.
14.3 Our ready-made posts include “#ad”. Keep it when you use them.
14.4 On review sites, follow each site’s rules about affiliate links.
15. Suspension, closure and forfeiture
15.1 You can leave the program at any time by emailing support@synthesys.io. Your link and codes stop earning on payments made after you leave. Commission on earlier payments is paid once it is approved and the payout rules are met.
15.2 We may suspend or close your affiliate account at once if we reasonably believe you have broken these terms, acted fraudulently, or harmed our brand or our customers. While your account is suspended, payments made by your customers do not earn commission.
15.3 If we close your account because of a breach, we may:
- cancel unpaid commission linked to the breach, and for brand bidding, cookie stuffing, fraud or self-referral, cancel all unpaid commission;
- recover commission already paid that came from the breach;
- disable your link and codes.
15.4 We may close your affiliate account without a breach, or end the program, by giving you 30 days’ notice. We then pay all commission on payments made before the end date once it clears its hold, even if it is under $100.
15.5 Closing your affiliate account does not close your Synthesys account.
15.6 Sections 9, 10 (for amounts already due), 11, 15, 18, 20, 21, 22 and 23 continue after your affiliate account closes.
16. Monthly leaderboard
16.1 Each calendar month (UTC) we rank active affiliates by the number of new paying customers they brought.
16.2 A customer counts in the month of their first plan payment. A customer drops off the board if that payment is refunded or charged back, or while its commission is in review.
16.3 The board is provisional during the month. It becomes final once that month’s commissions have cleared their hold. We confirm winners after that, usually by the end of the following month; yearly-plan holds can make it later.
16.4 Each month your dashboard shows the prizes and the minimum number of new paying customers needed to qualify. We may set no prizes for a month.
16.5 Prizes are cash or Synthesys credits. A cash prize is added to your approved balance and paid in the normal payout run under section 10. Credits are added to your Synthesys account and have no cash value.
16.6 The board shows your link name, a display name you choose, or “Anonymous affiliate” if you prefer. It never shows earnings.
16.7 We may disqualify an affiliate who breaks these terms. We may change or end the leaderboard at any time; prizes already confirmed are still paid. Any tax on a prize is yours.
17. Changes to the program and these terms
17.1 We may change these terms, the commission rate, the duration, the code discount or the program. We will tell you at least 30 days before a change takes effect, by email and in your dashboard. A change applies to payments made on or after its effective date.
17.2 We may give shorter notice only when the law, a payment provider or the need to stop fraud or abuse requires it.
17.3 If you do not agree with a change, you can leave before it takes effect. If you stay, you accept it.
17.4 Commission on a payment always follows the terms in force on the date of that payment.
18. Our customers and personal data
18.1 Customers you bring are Synthesys customers. Your dashboard shows each one masked (for example j•••@gmail.com), with sign-up date, plan, status and the commission earned. You never see names, full email addresses, payment details or anything they create.
18.2 You must not try to identify or contact customers using program data, or ask them for their Synthesys login or account details.
18.3 We use your account details, payout details, tax confirmation, link names, codes and click data to run the program, pay you, prevent fraud and meet our legal duties, as our Privacy Policy explains. We share your payout details with Wise so it can pay you. We store a keyed hash of a visitor’s internet address, never the address itself, and delete click records after 13 months.
18.4 You are responsible for your own audience’s data, such as your email list, and for following data protection and direct marketing law when you use it.
18.5 Our website sets the tracking cookies only after a visitor agrees to them. You must not set them, or try to record referrals, in any other way.
19. Our brand and materials
19.1 We give you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable permission to use the Synthesys name, logo and our promotion kit only to promote Synthesys under these terms, and only as supplied.
19.2 The permission ends when your affiliate account closes. You must remove our materials on request.
20. Independent contractor
20.1 You take part as an independent contractor. Nothing in these terms makes you our employee, agent, partner or joint venturer.
20.2 You cannot make promises or enter contracts on our behalf.
20.3 You pay your own costs of promoting Synthesys.
21. Liability
21.1 Nothing in these terms limits or excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else the law does not allow to be limited.
21.2 We are not liable for loss of profit, revenue, business or goodwill, or for any indirect or consequential loss. We are not liable for referrals lost to things outside our reasonable control, such as blocked cookies, browser settings, outages of third-party services, or a customer changing device.
21.3 Our total liability to you under or in connection with the program is limited to the commission paid or payable to you for plan payments made in the three months before the event that gave rise to the claim.
21.4 You are responsible for your promotions. You agree to cover our losses from any claim caused by your breach of these terms or of the law.
21.5 We do not promise any level of earnings. The program is provided as it is.
22. General
22.1 We may transfer our rights and duties under these terms to another company in our group or to a buyer of our business. You may not transfer yours without our written consent.
22.2 These terms, with our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, are the whole agreement about the program.
22.3 If a court finds part of these terms unenforceable, the rest still applies.
22.4 If we do not enforce a right straight away, we can still enforce it later.
22.5 Nobody else has rights under these terms under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999.
22.6 We send notices to the email address on your Synthesys account and show them in your dashboard. You send notices to support@synthesys.io.
22.7 These terms are written in English. A translation, if any, is for convenience only.
23. Governing law and courts
23.1 These terms and any dispute or claim arising out of them are governed by the law of England and Wales.
23.2 The courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction.
