5. Affiliate Program

Eligibility

Participation in the NestDaddy Affiliate Program is open to individuals who are at least 18 years of age and have a valid, verifiable identity. By joining the program, you agree to these Terms in full, including the KYC and payout requirements below.

Identity Verification (KYC)

KYC is required before any payout

Before a commission withdrawal can be processed, you must complete and pass identity verification (Know Your Customer / KYC). This requires submitting a valid government-issued identity document (national ID, passport, or driver's license), photographs of the document, and a selfie holding the document.

NestDaddy reserves the right to approve or reject any KYC submission at its sole discretion. You will be notified of the outcome and provided a reason if rejected. You may resubmit after addressing the rejection reason.

Submitting false, altered, or fraudulent identity documents is a serious violation of these Terms and may result in permanent account termination, forfeiture of all commissions, and referral to relevant law enforcement authorities.

Commissions and Payouts

  • Commissions are earned based on the affiliate program structure in effect at the time of the qualifying activity.
  • NestDaddy reserves the right to adjust commission rates with reasonable prior notice.
  • Commissions generated through fraudulent activity, self-referrals, or manipulation of the referral system will be voided and may result in account termination.
  • Minimum withdrawal thresholds and processing times apply as specified in the affiliate dashboard.
  • Payouts are subject to KYC approval. Withdrawals will not be processed until your identity is verified and approved.

Prohibited Activities

Affiliate participants must not engage in the following:

  • Self-referrals or creating fake accounts to generate commissions
  • Paid advertising that misrepresents NestDaddy or its services
  • Spam, unsolicited messaging, or deceptive marketing practices
  • Use of bots, scripts, or automated tools to generate fake referral activity
  • Providing false information during KYC verification
  • Attempting to circumvent the KYC process through any means

Termination of Affiliate Account

NestDaddy may suspend or permanently terminate your affiliate account, with or without notice, if you violate these Terms, engage in prohibited activities, fail KYC verification due to suspected fraud, or for any other reason at our sole discretion. Upon termination for cause, any pending or accrued commissions may be forfeited.
