Preparing your partner agreement
Use this overview to brief your company’s lawyer and program owner. The full Russian guide contains the complete walkthrough, examples and diagrams. Download the Russian Word template or its Russian Markdown source for drafting.
📝 Scope and draft status
This is an English explanation of the workflow, not an English legal version of the offer. The Russian template, version 0.3, is a working draft for adaptation under Russian law. External legal review of the package has not yet been completed. Your company must approve its completed terms and verify its process before publishing its own offer.
Establish the parties and their roles
The base model is customer acquisition services provided by partners registered under Russia’s professional income tax regime (NPD), individual entrepreneurs or legal entities. Individuals without individual entrepreneur or NPD status are outside this model.
- The company orders and accepts the partner’s services, sells its product to customers, and owes the partner’s remuneration.
- The partner performs the agreed acquisition or promotional activities within the agreed limits of authority.
- The customer buys from the company. The customer’s purchase and the partner’s remuneration are separate obligations.
- RevRoute provides the platform and, when payout services are connected, arranges payments on the company’s behalf and at its expense under a separate agency agreement.
The software licence, agency offer and privacy policy govern their respective parts of the relationship with RevRoute. These are Russian legal documents. The company’s agreement with its partner does not itself create additional obligations for RevRoute.
The full Russian guide explains the nominal account arrangement and the division of payment responsibilities. Confirm the selected company’s connection, supported recipients, funding process and document workflow during setup; a published diagram is not evidence of a completed bank test.
Separate the rules, parameters and evidence
The agreement defines the rules, RevRoute holds the agreed program parameters, and retained records establish the accepted version. Keep commercial values in the applicable program terms rather than repeating them throughout the permanent text. Make all applicable parameters available before the partner agrees.
The template’s catalogue П01–П20 covers products, services, eligibility, attribution, remuneration, deadlines, documents, data, promotion, support and exit. It is a disclosure checklist, not a list of existing interface fields. Use available settings and accessible linked descriptions; assign a manual process where needed. Verify that the accepted text and parameters can be reconstructed for the relevant partner and event. Do not assume that every required snapshot or acceptance record is created automatically.
Work through the decisions
| Decision | What the company and its advisers should establish |
|---|---|
| Services and customer handling | The permitted activities, payable result, limits of authority, first contact and qualification deadlines, responsible person and escalation |
| Joining the program | The assent action, receipt of the application, separate admission to paid work, confirmation by invited partners and evidence of the accepted version |
| Attribution | Referral methods and priorities, existing customers, duplicate claims, the attribution window, customer protection, repeat commissions and correction of missing events |
| Remuneration | The budget, disclosed agency fee, partner remuneration, calculation base, product or tier differences, partial payments, taxes, thresholds and refunds |
| Documents and payout | Applicable tax status, who prepares and accepts each document, bounded review periods, funding, payout deadlines and treatment of undisputed amounts |
| Data and advertising | The customer’s route, necessary data and grounds, processing roles, separate confirmations, permitted materials, disclosure of the partner’s financial interest and applicable advertising duties |
| Changes and exit | How amendments take effect, which version applies to old customers, the dispute process, final settlement and access to records |
In this template, the net remuneration model is V − A = N: the agreed budget minus the disclosed RevRoute agency fee equals the partner’s remuneration. N is the agreed price of the partner’s services before the partner’s own taxes. Fees for the nominal-account payment route are paid from RevRoute’s own funds and are not an additional deduction from N. Complete the actual formula and example in the program terms. Do not condition payment of remuneration already earned on recruiting additional customers.
For each partner category, agree the checks and documents with accounting. Receipt collection, document signing and records of assent may involve the service, a payment provider or an assigned person. Confirm how they work for your setup before describing them as automated.
Complete the data documents
Start with the personal data guide. A simple route is for the partner to send a link and for the customer to submit the company’s form directly. If the partner submits contact details, establish the permitted fields, grounds, recipients and evidence first. Assent to the partner agreement does not provide consent on behalf of the customer or website visitor.
Verify and release the company’s offer
Use the templates and launch checks to review the complete package with the program owner, lawyer, accounting team and setup owner. Check joining, calculation, attribution conflicts, a partial refund, documents, a properly documented test payout for each supported category, changes and exit. Preserve the results; these are required checks, not statements that the program has already passed them.
Remove editorial instructions and unselected alternatives, fill every required field, and publish the approved offer at a stable URL. Retain its applicable parameters and approval records. Existing partners need the relevant amendment procedure; replacing the file behind a link does not automatically change their agreement.
