Kiwify US Inc. ("Kiwify") operates the sales platform located at kiwify.com (the "Platform"), which enables buyers to purchase Infoproducts exclusively from Kiwify. The Sales Platform also enables third-party advertisers ("Affiliates") to promote Infoproducts. The program through which Affiliates promote Infoproducts is referred to here as the "Affiliate Program".
The following General Terms and Conditions (the “GTC” or “Agreement”) constitute a binding agreement between Kiwify, acting as the Merchant of Record, and its Vendors, Affiliates, and Buyers (collectively referred to hereinafter as “Contractual Partner”). By enabling an Infoproduct for sale, the Contractual Partner confirms that it has read the Agreement and expressly consents to all the terms and conditions contained herein, including Kiwify's responsibilities as the Merchant of Record, and any additional terms and conditions specified on the Sales Platform. Through these Terms, the Buyer who places an order to purchase an Infoproduct authorizes Kiwify to purchase the Infoproduct from the Vendor in the country where the Vendor is resident. After purchasing the Infoproduct from the Vendor, Kiwify subsequently sells the Infoproduct to the Buyer in the country where they are domiciled.
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING ARBITRATION FOR U.S. BUYERS: WHEN YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS YOU ARE AGREEING (WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION) TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND KIWIFY THROUGH BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT. PLEASE REVIEW CAREFULLY SECTION 11 “DISPUTE RESOLUTION” BELOW FOR DETAILS REGARDING ARBITRATION.
BY PLACING AN ORDER FOR INFOPRODUCTS FROM THE SITE, REGISTERING AN INFOPRODUCT OR OTHERWISE USING THE SERVICES, YOU ACCEPT AND ARE BOUND BY THESE TERMS. YOU MAY NOT USE THE SERVICES NOR ORDER OR OBTAIN INFOPRODUCTS FROM THE SITE IF YOU (A) DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, (B) ARE NOT OF LEGAL AGE TO FORM OR ARE NOT CAPABLE OF FORMING A BINDING CONTRACT WITH KIWIFY, OR (C) ARE PROHIBITED FROM ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICES.
If You are accessing and using the Services or purchasing/selling Infoproducts on behalf of a company (such as your employer) or other legal entity, You represent and warrant that You have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms. In that case, “You” and “Your” will refer to that entity.
1 - Term; Termination; and Withholdings for Breach and Suspected Breach
This Agreement shall commence on the date that the Contractual Partner submits an application and Kiwify accepts such application. The Contractual Partner must accurately complete the registration process to become an Affiliate or Vendor, as applicable.

Alternatively, Kiwify, at its sole discretion, may elect to withhold unpaid Vendor Payments and Affiliate Commissions, or deduct the amount of previously paid Affiliate Commissions and Vendor Payments to the Contractual Partner from future payments due to the Contractual Partner (collectively, the "Withholding") if: (1) Kiwify suspects or determines, in its sole discretion, that the Contractual Partner has breached this Agreement or violated any applicable law, rule, or regulation; (2) Kiwify receives any complaints about the Contractual Partner that Kiwify reasonably believes to indicate a breach of this Agreement or violation of any applicable law, rule, or regulation; or (3) Kiwify determines, in its sole discretion, that Kiwify paid Affiliate Commissions or Vendor Payments to the Contractual Partner as a result of the Contractual Partner’s breach of this Agreement or violation of any applicable law, rule, or regulation. The Withholding shall be used to offset Kiwify's actual or potential losses and liabilities, including but not limited to Kiwify's attorneys' fees and costs, as a result of the Contractual Partner’s breach of this Agreement.

4 - Vendor Infoproduct Sales
A. Application/Account Creation and Infoproduct Registration
The vendor must create an account and submit an application to access the Sales Platform. By creating an account, you warrant that the information provided is truthful and accurate and that the vendor is not misrepresenting their identity. Kiwify will review the vendor's information and may, at its sole discretion, determine whether to allow the vendor to access the Sales Platform. The vendor is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any credentials used to access the vendor's account, and agrees not to transfer the vendor's password or username, or lend or otherwise transfer the use of or access to the vendor's account to any third party. The vendor is fully responsible for all transactions with, and information conveyed to, Kiwify under the vendor's account. The vendor agrees to immediately notify Kiwify of any unauthorized use of the vendor's credentials or any other breach of security related to the vendor's account. The vendor agrees that Kiwify is not liable, and the vendor will hold Kiwify harmless, for any loss or damage arising from the vendor's failure to comply with any of the foregoing obligations.
B. Infoproduct Registration
Upon creating an account, the vendor will be able to set up and register individual Infoproducts for sale using the Sales Platform. Instructions for Infoproduct setup can be found on Kiwify's website. The vendor authorizes Kiwify to list all Infoproducts registered by the vendor for sale via the Sales Platform in a searchable online Infoproducts marketplace operated by Kiwify and to offer them for sale to Buyers.
At any moment, Kiwify may, at its own discretion, for any or no reason, with or without notice to the vendor and without liability for contractual penalties or claims, delete and remove Infoproducts from the Sales Platform marketplace.
C. Sale of Infoproducts to Buyers
After registering the Infoproduct, if a Buyer completes an order, we will purchase the corresponding Infoproducts from the Vendor. This purchase will be considered complete and finished the moment the buyer abroad formalizes, with Kiwify INC., a purchase order of the Infoproducts. Kiwify will then resell the Infoproducts directly to the Buyer. Upon completion of the order, Kiwify will notify the Vendor of the Buyer's order by email, API, or some other mutually agreed method.
Kiwify will provide the Vendor with a link that the vendor may integrate into its sales page ("Link"). Buyers who view the Vendor's sales page and choose to purchase the Infoproduct will be directed to the Sales Platform to complete the order. If a Buyer completes an order on the Sales Platform, Kiwify will purchase the corresponding Infoproduct from the Vendor. Kiwify will then resell the Infoproducts directly to the Buyer. Upon completion of the order, Kiwify will notify the Vendor of the Buyer's order by email. Kiwify will pay the Vendor directly for the Infoproduct. Kiwify's fee for any Infoproducts sales will be reflected in the Sales Platform and expressly incorporated into this Agreement.
The Vendor must make the Infoproduct directly available to the Buyer. The Vendor is not permitted to substitute the purchased Infoproduct. All order forms, receipts, and order confirmation forms must reflect that the Buyer purchased the Infoproduct directly from Kiwify. For the avoidance of any doubt, the Buyer's contract to purchase the Infoproduct shall be between Kiwify and the Buyer.
D. Vendor Obligations
In addition to the obligations already described, the Vendor must:
1. Provide a valid email address that Kiwify can use to send inquiries that must be answered by the end of the next business day. The Vendor must provide Kiwify with a non-automated response within one business day. The Vendor must inform Kiwify of all complaints based on a violation of terms and conditions or legal violations that become known in relation to an Infoproduct within two business days. This reporting obligation also applies to the threat of filing complaints. The Vendor must support Kiwify in responding to any complaints by taking all necessary steps and appropriate actions at the Vendor's expense.
2. Comply with applicable laws and regulations concerning the collection of taxes associated with Infoproduct purchases, which may vary by country. The Vendor must assume full responsibility for the timely payment of any taxes due.
3. Be responsible for paying all taxes, fees, expenses, and Losses charged in Brazil and/or abroad, related to the Assignment and Export of Infoproducts, and it is authorized for Kiwify to directly withhold these amounts from the Content Creator's account;
4. Issue regular invoices to Kiwify INC. for the Assignment of the Infoproducts;
5. Fully assume responsibility for all damages and losses caused to Kiwify by the designated Buyer, being authorized for Kiwify to directly withhold the amounts of these damages and losses from the Content Creator's account;
6. Take full responsibility for acts that result in fines or penalties that may be applied in Brazil or abroad resulting from the Infoproducts made available, being authorized for Kiwify to directly withhold the amounts of these fines or penalties from the Content Creator's account;
7. Indemnify Kiwify for the payment of any amounts arising from the Assignment and/or the availability of the Infoproduct abroad;
8. Fully assume the risk of chargeback and default by the designated Buyers, including through chargeback alert tool(s) used by Kiwify;
9. Fulfill all promotions or incentives that the Vendor promises to Affiliates. The Vendor must forgo incentives or promotions for Affiliates without an express statement that they are exclusively provided by the Vendor and not by Kiwify.
E. Vendor Payments
The Vendor must specify a non-binding price recommendation for the net sales price of each Infoproduct. Once an Buyer completes a purchase of the corresponding Infoproduct, Kiwify will pay the Vendor an amount based on the non-binding price recommendation, plus the tax due for the specific sale to the Buyer (“Sales Price”), minus a fee from Kiwify according to the current Kiwify price list or separate agreement with the Vendor concerning a specific Infoproduct (“Vendor Payments”).
In addition to the established payment to the Vendor based on the non-binding price recommendation, the following fees will be applied to the Sales Price:
• A fee of 8.9% plus $1 (one US dollar) per transaction.
• Security Reserve: A security reserve corresponding to 10% of the sale value will be retained for a period of 45 days as a preventive measure against possible chargebacks or disputes.
• Payout: After deducting the mentioned fees and any other applicable debits, 90% of the net sale value will be released to the Vendor, this amount being made available 7 days after the sale confirmation.
Vendor Payments will be issued to the Vendor through the payment method specified at the time of account creation. Ninety percent (90%) of the transaction value will be issued within 7 days from the date of purchase by the Buyer, or in the time period specified on the Sales Platform or otherwise agreed upon by the Parties. Without limiting the above, Kiwify reserves the right to extend the period in which it issues refunds and accepts returns from Buyers, up to 365 days after the purchase date, in which case the Vendor will not receive Vendor Payments until such refunds and returns are processed by Kiwify.
Regardless of anything in this Agreement or on the Sales Platform to the contrary, Kiwify expressly reserves the right to withhold a percentage of Vendor Payments for an additional period to account for potential or anticipated Buyers chargebacks, refunds, and returns. Kiwify reserves the right to extend the time for disbursement of Vendor Payments if it considers that the quantities of an Infoproduct sold are low in relation to the Infoproduct price.
In the event a Buyer requests a return or refund, or initiates a chargeback for the Infoproduct, Kiwify will deduct the corresponding amount, including a transaction and chargeback fee, from Vendor Payments for such returns, refunds, or chargebacks. Kiwify reserves the right to withhold Vendor Payments in whole or in part if it suspects that the Contractual Partner has violated this Agreement, or any applicable law, rule, or regulation, or if the Vendor’s Infoproducts are suspected or deemed to be defective, or if the Vendor offers insufficient Infoproduct access or support, as determined by Kiwify at its sole discretion.
In the case of Brazilians selling abroad, the Content Creator declares to understand and agree that, in the case of transactions with foreign currency, the final balance to be redeemed from the values resulting from their sales may be impacted by causes beyond the responsibility and control of Kiwify, such as the applicable daily exchange rate, the foreign exchange variation between the dates of sales and withdrawals in Reais, the currencies involved in processing, the exchange rules of institutions (financial or otherwise), taxes or fees charged by third parties.
Kiwify is not responsible for the services provided by third parties in the processing of currency conversion and withdrawal. Kiwify is not liable for any material or immaterial damages resulting from third-party services in the processing of currency conversion and withdrawal.
5 - Affiliate Program
Affiliates may advertise an Infoproducts and thus promote sales of such Infoproduct (engage in “Promotions”) as part of the Affiliate Program. For such activities, the Affiliate will receive a commission from Kiwify ("Commission") that is specified for the promoted Infoproduct on the Sales Platform.
A. Promotions
Vendors may provide links that the Affiliate may use to promote the Infoproducts. Vendors may make available to Affiliate graphic and textual links and other creative materials such as text ads, graphic ads, video ads, from and subject lines, and copy associated with the Promotion that Affiliate may display on websites owned or controlled by the Affiliate, in emails sent by the Affiliate, and in Affiliate’s online advertisements. Kiwify may, at its sole and absolute discretion, terminate or change any Promotion, and deactivate, change or remove any link for any or no reason.
The Affiliate must discontinue use and dissemination of the Promotion and Link immediately upon Kiwify’s request.
B. Affiliate Commissions
The Commission paid to the Affiliate will be specified on the Sales Platform for the corresponding Infoproducts and Promotions. The Affiliate's Commission is based on the Infoproduct to be marketed and will be agreed upon individually and may be calculated based on the Sales Price. Except for Promotions designated as "Cost Per Action," if a Buyer returns, requests a refund, or initiates a chargeback for a Infoproduct, Kiwify will deduct the corresponding amount from the Affiliate’s Commission. Except for Promotions designated as "Cost Per Action," if a chargeback, refund, or return is initiated after the corresponding Commission has been paid to the Affiliate, Kiwify reserves the right to deduct such amount from future Commissions to the Affiliate. The Affiliate will not receive a Commission if the Affiliate is also a Vendor and buys its own Infoproduct.
C. Restrictions on the Use of Third Party Affiliates
The Contractual Partner represents and warrants that it will not use sub-affiliates, third party affiliates, or its own network, each a "Third-Party Affiliate," for the purposes of this Agreement, without Kiwify’s prior written consent. Without limiting the foregoing, the Contractual Partner shall not broker Promotions to any Third-Party Affiliate, or to any directly enrolled affiliates, without Kiwify’s prior written permission. If Kiwify permits the Contractual Partner to engage its affiliate network (the "Network") to provide services under this Agreement (including placing Promotions for access and use by affiliates in the Network), then the provisions set forth below apply.
The Contractual Partner shall contractually bind all of its Third-Party Affiliates to all terms of this Agreement. Thus, the Contractual Partner shall require and confirm that all Third-Party Affiliates affirmatively accept, through verifiable means, terms substantively identical to this Agreement prior to obtaining access to the Promotions. If a Third-Party Affiliate fails to adhere to the requirements set forth herein, in addition to other remedies available to Kiwify, the Contractual Partner may be terminated at Kiwify’s sole discretion, and the Contractual Partner shall indemnify Kiwify for any resulting third party claims against it.
The Contractual Partner shall not permit any party to be a Third-Party Affiliate whose advertising or business model involves content or marketing channels prohibited by this Agreement.
The Contractual Partner agrees that for the purposes of this Agreement, the acts and omissions of its Third-Party Affiliates shall be deemed the acts and omissions of the Contractual Partner, regardless of whether such Third-Party Affiliates are bound to this Agreement or any other agreement. The Affiliate is responsible for any Third-Party Affiliate’s breach of this Agreement, regardless of whether Third-Party Affiliates execute this Agreement or any other agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Contractual Partner shall defend and indemnify Kiwify for any act or omission by any Third-Party Affiliate.
The Contractual Partner shall periodically audit Third-Party Affiliates, and permit Kiwify to audit Third-Party Affiliates upon written request, to ensure Third-Party Affiliates are in compliance with the law and this Agreement. The Contractual Partner shall promptly terminate any Third-Party Affiliate who takes, or could reasonably be expected to take, any action that violates the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, at Kiwify’s request, the Contractual Partner shall provide reasonable assistance to enable Kiwify to monitor compliance with all applicable laws and provisions under this Agreement.
Upon written notice from Kiwify, the Contractual Partner shall immediately remove any Third-Party Affiliate from disseminating the Promotions or providing services in connection with this Agreement, and terminate their access to the Promotions.
The Contractual Partner agrees that Kiwify is under no obligation to pay a Third-Party Affiliate. Kiwify further reserves the right to withhold or refuse Commissions to the Contractual Partner, and charge back or obtain a refund from the Contractual Partner for previously paid Commissions, in the event that any of its Third-Party Affiliates breach this Agreement or the law.

10 - GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION
These Terms and any action related thereto will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, federal arbitration law, and in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict of law’s provisions. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section 11 “Dispute Resolution,” the exclusive jurisdiction for all Disputes (defined below) that You and Kiwify are not required to arbitrate will be the state and federal courts located in New York City, State of New York, and You and Kiwify each waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts.
11 - DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes. We each agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof or the use of the Services (collectively, “Disputes”) will be resolved solely by binding, individual arbitration and not in a class, representative or consolidated action or proceeding. You and Kiwify agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these Terms, and that You and Kiwify are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms.
11.1. Exceptions. As limited exceptions to Section 11.1 above: (i) We both may seek to resolve a Dispute in small claims court if it qualifies; and (ii) We each retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or enjoin) the infringement or misappropriation of Our intellectual property rights.
11.2. Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. A party who wishes to start arbitration must submit a written Demand for Arbitration to AAA and give notice to the other party as specified in the AAA Rules. The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration at www.adr.org.
a. Any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) where You live, unless we both agree to a different location. The parties agree that the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability and scope of this arbitration agreement.
11.3. Arbitration Costs. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules, and We won’t seek to recover the administration and arbitrator fees We are responsible for paying, unless the arbitrator finds your Dispute frivolous. If We prevail in arbitration We’ll pay all of Our attorneys’ fees and costs and won’t seek to recover them from You. If You prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law.
11.4. Injunctive and Declaratory Relief. Except as provided in Section 11.1 above, the arbitrator shall determine all issues of liability on the merits of any claim asserted by either party and may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. To the extent that You or We prevail on a claim and seek public injunctive relief (that is, injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public), the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The parties agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the outcome of the merits of any individual claims in arbitration.
11.5. Class Action Waiver. YOU AND KIWIFY AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, if the parties’ Dispute is resolved through arbitration, the arbitrator may not consolidate another person’s claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Dispute Resolution section shall be null and void.
11.6 Severability. With the exception of any of the provisions in Section 11.5 of these Terms (“Class Action Waiver”), if an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction decides that any part of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of these Terms will still apply.
12. Miscellaneous

The waiver of any right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of Kiwify. Except as expressly set forth in these Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms or otherwise.
