Premium Partner Program Terms & Conditions

Demio is now part of Banzai. The Demio Premium Partner Program will apply to Demio Premium, Growth and Starter packages.

Premium Partner Program Terms

These Demio Premium Partner Program Terms (the “Terms”) create a binding agreement between you and Banzai International Inc. and its affiliates (“Banzai”, “Demio”, “us”, “our”, or “we”). By participating in our Program, you agree to these Terms. Additionally, in doing so you further agree to Demio’s Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, which is hereby incorporated through reference as if fully set forth herein. To the extent any capitalized terms used in these Terms are not defined herein, such terms shall have the meaning set forth in the Privacy Policy.

Who is eligible:

Companies, individuals, or groups/associations (“Partners” or “you”), that understand Banzai’s value and would like to receive compensation for referrals. To become a Partner, you will need to submit an application and accept Banzai’s Terms. Banzai can accept or deny your application, at its own discretion.

To qualify for Demio Premium Partner program, you should have:

• HubSpot Partner Program certification or Marketing Agency working with HubSpot customers
• At least 5+ active customers within the HubSpot ecosystem
• Build, manage, maintain or consult on webinar campaigns for customers
• Enroll 1-2 new customers a month to your agency
• Track record of over-delivering for customers! We are obsessed with delivering great experiences and we want to work with like-minded teams.

How it works:

In the event that you refer an individual, company or corporation (a “Potential Purchaser”) to Banzai, and the Potential Purchaser ultimately makes an Eligible Purchase (as defined below) from Banzai (making them a “Customer”), you will receive a Premium Partner referral as detailed below, exclusive of taxes and fees (the “Commission”).

Qualified referral:

Your referral will be valid and qualified for compensation if: a) you submitted the complete information requested by Banzai; and b) it’s not already part of Banzai’s database.

Eligible Purchase:

Any direct purchase of Demio, by a customer who has been referred by you (“Qualified referral”). For the purposes of this Agreement, an “Eligible Purchase” shall include any direct purchase made on Demio, by a customer who has accessed the Demio platform through clicking on a unique referral link provided to you, by us (the “Unique Link”), and any purchase initiated by you in the name of your client by reaching out directly to us, and providing all the necessary details for a purchase to be finalized.

Commission:

You will earn a commission once your qualified referral was converted to a Premium customer (sales order signed by both parties). You will receive a Commission for new customer’s first order and also for further renewals, expansions, and upgrades (without interruption), as long as you keep your Partner status and as long as the Demio Premium Partner Program remains active.

Any revenue generated from an Eligible Purchase which has originated from a referral you have directed to Demio, shall result in the payment of a Commission to you in an amount equal to 30% of the revenue generated by a Starter Plan or Growth Plan, and in an amount of 10% of the revenue generated by a Premium Plan.

Any mention of lifetime commission refers to the commission structure laid out above, for all customer’s first order and also for further renewals, expansions, and upgrades (without interruption), as long as you keep your Partner status and as long as the Demio Premium Partner Program remains active.

Exclusions:

You shall not be entitled to a Commission for any purchase that you make for your own business or for a business where you are an employee and Banzai reserves the right to review any fraudulent transactions and revise the final payouts to you as deemed appropriate.

Partner Status

Once accepted into the program, you will be given Partner Status for an initial period of six months. To keep your Partner Status, you will have to refer a minimum of two new Premium Plan customers and attend one check-in call with the program manager during that period.Our goal is to form a collaborative relationship with each Partner, so the regular check-ins will be great opportunities to discuss co-marketing options.After the initial period, your Partner Status will renew automatically every six-month if you have a minimum of two active Premium Plan customers at the date of renewal. If you don't meet that requirement, we'll do a check-in call and decide on a "case by case" basis. In the case of being unenrolled from this program, you will have the option to be transferred to our Affiliate Program. If you then refer two customers as an affiliate, you'll be able to reapply to become a partner in six months.

Free Demio Premium Account:

Free Demio Premium Account:Once accepted into the program, you will be eligible for a six-month free Premium Plan account with 1 host and 500-attendee room size.

If you are a current Demio customer with a Premium plan account with more than 1 host and/or a greater-than-500-attendee room size, we'll create a second account for you at no cost for six months; this second account will be renewed for six-month periods at no cost as long as your Partners Status is renewed. If it isn't, you'll have the option to move to one of our paid plans or to close it.

If you are a current Demio customer with a Premium plan account with 1 host and 500-attendee room size, we'll extend your subscription for a period of six months free of charge when you achieve Partner Status; each time your Partner Status is renewed, we'll extend your subscription for another six months free of charge. If you lose Partner Status, your account will immediately return to the billing plan it was on before you got Partner Status.

If you are a current Demio customer with a Starter/Growth plan account, we'll upgrade your subscription for six months to a Premium plan account with 1 host and 500-attendee room size at no cost. Each time your Partner Status is renewed, we'll extend that upgrade for another six months free of charge. If you lose Partner Status, you can choose to move to a paid Premium Plan, return to the paid plan you were on before we upgraded your subscription, or close your account.

In any case, you will not be eligible for any refund of payments already processed or any other form of compensation as a result of our extending, upgrading, and/or subsequently downgrading your subscription.
