Affiliate Payout & Balance Terms

Horizon Hosting Limited (trading as "Horizon Hosting") Company Number: 13693820 Registered in England and Wales

Last Updated: 12 November 2026


These Affiliate Payout & Balance Terms ("Affiliate Terms") form part of, and are incorporated by reference into, our Terms and Conditions (the "Terms"), and govern eligibility, commission balances, and withdrawals for our affiliate programme (the "Programme") as an affiliate ("Affiliate", "you"). Capitalised terms not defined in these Affiliate Terms have the meaning given to them in the Glossary.

By applying to, or participating in, the Programme, you agree to be bound by these Affiliate Terms in addition to the Terms, our Acceptable Use Policy, and any other policy incorporated by reference into the Terms.


1. Eligibility

To participate as an Affiliate, you must:

(a) have reached the age of majority in your jurisdiction, or, where permitted by local law, have the verifiable consent of a parent or legal guardian;

(b) hold a valid Horizon Hosting account in good standing;

(c) not have been previously removed from the Programme, or had your account suspended or terminated under the Terms or the Acceptable Use Policy, unless we agree otherwise in writing; and

(d) comply with these Affiliate Terms, the Terms, and the Acceptable Use Policy.

We may verify your eligibility at any time. Where you do not meet, or cease to meet, these requirements, we may decline your application to join the Programme or revoke your participation in it, in accordance with Clause 8 (Removal from the Programme and Withheld Balances).

2. Prohibited Practices

You must not generate, or attempt to generate, commission through:

(a) self-referral, including referring your own accounts, purchases, or those of a household member, business partner, or any other person or account in which you have a personal or financial interest;

(b) coupon, deal, cashback, or similar websites or listings that are not expressly authorised by us in writing; or

(c) any other method intended to artificially inflate referrals, commission, or Programme metrics, including fraudulent, misleading, or automated traffic generation.

Any commission generated in breach of this Clause is not valid. Where we reasonably suspect a breach of this Clause, we may decline, reverse, or withhold any related withdrawal or balance, in accordance with Clause 6 (Our Right to Decline Withdrawals) and Clause 4 (Commission Rate and Balance Adjustments), and may remove you from the Programme in accordance with Clause 8.

3. Withdrawal Methods

Commission balances may be withdrawn as credit applied to your Horizon Hosting account balance ("Store Credit"), or via such other payment method(s) as we make available from time to time, at our sole discretion. We may add, remove, or restrict available withdrawal methods, including any method previously offered to you (whether Store Credit or otherwise), at any time and without notice. Availability of a given withdrawal method may vary depending on your country or region.

4. Commission Rate and Balance Adjustments

We reserve the right to set, increase, decrease, or otherwise modify the commission rate applicable to the Programme generally, or to your account specifically, at any time and as we see fit, in our sole discretion. Save where the second paragraph of this Clause applies, a change to the commission rate will apply prospectively, to activity generated after the change takes effect.

We also reserve the right to alter, adjust, correct, or reduce your commission balance at any time and as we see fit, in our sole discretion, including without limitation where necessary to reflect a refund, chargeback, cancellation, or reversal of an underlying transaction giving rise to the commission, to correct a calculation or system error, or in response to suspected fraud, abuse, or a breach of these Affiliate Terms, the Terms, or the Acceptable Use Policy. An adjustment made on these grounds may be applied retrospectively, including to commission already accrued.

5. Minimum and Maximum Withdrawal Amounts

Minimum withdrawal. The minimum withdrawal amount for each payment method is the amount necessary to ensure the fees associated with that method do not consume the full value of your withdrawal. We will not process a withdrawal request that does not meet this minimum, and we will notify you if your requested withdrawal does not qualify.

Maximum withdrawal. You may withdraw a maximum of £200 (two hundred pounds sterling) per calendar month, regardless of your available commission balance or the withdrawal method used. Any balance in excess of this monthly limit will remain available for withdrawal in a subsequent month.

6. Fees and Conversion Rates

You are solely responsible for any fees charged by the payment provider used for your withdrawal (whether PayPal, a bank, or any other provider we make available), and for any currency conversion rate applied to that withdrawal. Where possible, such fees will be deducted automatically from the amount you receive, and we will notify you of the applicable fees before you confirm a withdrawal request. Where a fee cannot reasonably be calculated or disclosed in advance, you acknowledge that the amount you ultimately receive may be lower than the balance requested.

7. Our Right to Decline Withdrawals

We reserve the right to decline, delay, or reverse any withdrawal request, in whole or in part, for any reason or no reason, in our sole discretion, including without limitation where we suspect fraud, abuse, a breach of Clause 2 (Prohibited Practices), or any other breach of these Affiliate Terms, the Terms, or the Acceptable Use Policy. Where we decline a withdrawal, the relevant balance will remain in your account and may be requested again, save where Clause 8 applies.

8. Removal from the Programme and Withheld Balances

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion and without notice, to remove you from the Programme at any time, for any reason or no reason.

Where you are removed from the Programme, we reserve the right to withhold, and you will have no claim to, any commission balance that has not yet been paid out to you as at the date of removal, whether or not a withdrawal request was pending at that time.

9. Tax

You are solely responsible for determining and complying with any tax obligations arising from your participation in the Programme, including the reporting and payment of any income tax, self-employment tax, VAT, or other applicable tax in your jurisdiction. We do not withhold tax from commission payments, and we make no representation as to how commission earned through the Programme will be treated for tax purposes. Where required by applicable law, we may collect information about you and your Programme earnings and report it to HM Revenue & Customs or another relevant tax authority. You should seek independent professional advice regarding your own tax position.

10. Changes to these Affiliate Terms

We may revise these Affiliate Terms at any time by updating this document, in accordance with Clause 1 of the Terms. Your continued participation in the Programme after a revised version is posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised Affiliate Terms.

11. Governing Law

These Affiliate Terms are governed by, and form part of an agreement governed by, the laws of England and Wales, and are subject to Clause 16 of the Terms (Governing Law, Jurisdiction and Dispute Resolution).
