Partner Program Agreement
Governing participation in the Mandu Partner Program. For Customer terms, see mandu360.com/terms.This Agreement is entered into between: (a) Mandu Goodz, a business entity registered under the laws of the Republic of Kenya, and EMMMW LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the United States of America (together, “Mandu”); and (b) the individual, company, or legal entity applying to or participating in the Partner Program (“Partner”, “you”, or “your”).
If you are applying on behalf of an organization, you represent and warrant that you have full authority to bind that organization to this Agreement.
In this Agreement, the following definitions apply:
To participate, submit a complete and accurate application at mandu360.com/become-an-agent. Submission does not guarantee approval. Mandu reserves the right to accept or reject any application at its sole discretion without providing reasons.
To be eligible, you must:
- Be at least 18 years of age with full legal capacity to enter into binding agreements;
- Not be a current employee, officer, director, or contractor of Mandu or any of its affiliates;
- Not be an immediate family member of a current Mandu employee or officer;
- Not be seeking to refer yourself or entities you control;
- Have a legitimate business or platform from which you will promote the Service;
- Comply with all Applicable Law in your jurisdiction.
If approved, Mandu will notify you by email, activate your Partner account, assign a Referral Code, and grant access to the Partner Dashboard. Participation commences on the date of Mandu’s approval notification.
Mandu may modify eligibility criteria at any time. If you no longer qualify, Mandu may suspend or terminate your participation under Section 17.
The Partner Program operates on a tiered structure. Current tiers, qualifying criteria, and Commission Rates are published at mandu360.com/partner. Mandu may add, remove, rename, or modify tiers at any time with reasonable notice.
| Tier | Qualifying Referrals | Commission Rate | Payout |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bronze | 1+ | As published on Dashboard | Monthly |
| Silver | As published | As published on Dashboard | Monthly |
| Gold | As published | As published on Dashboard | Monthly |
Tier assignment is at Mandu’s sole discretion based on Active Referrals, Partner contribution, conduct, and other published criteria. Both upgrades and downgrades are possible at any time.
Upon approval, Mandu assigns you a unique Referral Code. A referral is attributed to your account only when a prospective customer completes sign-up at mandu360.com/signup using your Referral Code at the time of registration. Mandu’s tracking systems are the sole authoritative record of referral attribution.
You may share your Referral Code via blog posts, social media, email, webinars, or direct communications, provided all activities comply with Section 9 and Applicable Law.
Tracking disputes must be raised in writing at partners@mandu360.com within thirty (30) days of the alleged failure. Mandu’s determination shall be final. Mandu is not liable for referrals that cannot be verified through its tracking systems.
Your Referral Code is personal to you and may not be transferred, sold, or shared to artificially generate referrals. Mandu may deactivate any Referral Code it reasonably believes is being used fraudulently.
A referral qualifies for Commission only if all of the following conditions are met:
- The Referred Customer completed sign-up using your Referral Code at the time of initial registration;
- The Referred Customer is genuinely new and has never previously held a paid Mandu subscription;
- The Referred Customer is not you, a family member, employee, or any affiliated person or entity;
- The Referred Customer converts to a paid subscription within the window specified on the Partner Dashboard — a free trial sign-up alone does not qualify;
- The Referred Customer’s subscription payment is successfully processed and not subsequently refunded, charged back, or disputed;
- Your Partner account is in good standing at the time the referral is made and when Commission accrues.
Self-referral is strictly prohibited. You may not use your own Referral Code to sign up for a Mandu subscription for yourself, your business, any entity you control, or any affiliated person. Commission from self-referrals will be reversed, and repeated violations may result in termination and forfeiture of all accrued Commissions.
Mandu makes no representation or guarantee as to the number of referrals you will generate, conversion rates, or total Commission you will earn. Participation is entirely at your own commercial risk.
Commission is calculated as the applicable Commission Rate multiplied by the Qualifying Revenue (i.e., net subscription fees actually received by Mandu) from each Active Referral during the payout period. Commission accrues only on each successful subscription payment received from an Active Referral. No Commission accrues on free trials, pending payments, refunded amounts, or chargebacks.
Commission Rates are published on the Partner Dashboard and at mandu360.com/partner. Commission Rates may be changed by Mandu at any time in accordance with Section 7.3. There is no guaranteed minimum Commission Rate and no rate is permanent.
Mandu reserves the right to change Commission Rates at any time, including increases or decreases, for any reason. Mandu will provide not less than thirty (30) days’ advance notice of any reduction in Commission Rates applicable to your existing Active Referrals, via email or via the Partner Dashboard. Changes to Commission Rates for new referrals may take effect immediately upon notice. Your continued participation following a Commission Rate change constitutes acceptance. If you do not accept a reduction, your sole remedy is to terminate this Agreement before the effective date.
Commission is recurring — it continues to accrue for as long as an Active Referral maintains a paid subscription in good standing and your Partner account remains active, subject to Commission Rate changes under Section 7.3.
No Commission is payable where: (a) the referral does not meet all criteria in Section 6.1; (b) the referral is a self-referral under Section 6.2; (c) the Referred Customer was already known to Mandu prior to the referral; (d) the subscription fees are refunded, charged back, or waived; (e) the referral was generated through fraud, deception, or prohibited methods; (f) your Partner account is suspended; or (g) the Commission relates to a period following termination, except as provided in Section 17.
Commissions are calculated monthly and paid within forty-five (45) days following the end of the calendar month in which they accrued, provided the Minimum Payout Threshold has been reached.
Commissions are only paid when your unpaid balance equals or exceeds the Minimum Payout Threshold published on the Partner Dashboard. Balances below the threshold carry forward. Mandu may modify the threshold with thirty (30) days’ notice.
Commissions are paid via the method(s) available on the Partner Dashboard, which may change at any time with reasonable notice. You are responsible for maintaining accurate payment details. Mandu is not liable for failed payments due to inaccurate information provided by you.
Commissions are calculated and paid in United States Dollars (USD) unless stated otherwise. Currency conversion costs are your responsibility.
You are solely responsible for all taxes applicable to Commission payments in your jurisdiction. Mandu will not withhold taxes unless required by Applicable Law. You agree to indemnify Mandu from any claims or penalties arising from your tax non-compliance.
Payment disputes must be raised in writing at partners@mandu360.com within sixty (60) days of the relevant payout date. Mandu will review in good faith but its determination is final.
Mandu may reverse, withhold, or claw back Commissions where: (a) the underlying subscription is refunded or charged back; (b) the referral was generated through fraud or a breach of this Agreement; (c) the Commission was paid in error; or (d) required by law. Claw-backed amounts may be deducted from future payments.

You must clearly and conspicuously disclose in all promotional content that you are a Mandu Partner and may earn a commission. Disclosures must comply with applicable advertising laws including FTC guidelines where applicable.

- Use automated systems, bots, or click farms to generate fraudulent referrals;
- Engage in self-referral or refer affiliated persons as described in Section 6.2;
- Offer cash payments or rebates to prospective customers in exchange for using your Referral Code without Mandu’s consent;

- Violate any third-party platform’s terms of service in your Partner activities;

Violation may result in immediate termination and forfeiture of all accrued but unpaid Commissions.
