PRO Program Terms and Conditions for Quickbooks Time

Thank you for participating in the PRO Program offered by QuickBooks Time ("QB Time"), an Intuit company (“Intuit”). Review this agreement (“Agreement”) thoroughly. This Agreement contains legal terms and conditions of the PRO Program between you and Intuit. By accepting electronically (for example, clicking “Join” or “I Agree”), you agree to these terms and conditions. If you do not agree to this Agreement, then you may not participate in the PRO Program.

DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES. In consideration of fees paid to you under the terms of this Agreement, you may, during the term of this Agreement, inform third-parties in regard to the nature and type of services provided by Intuit by using such means as determined in your discretion (subject to the limitations set forth below) and by using such marketing materials and Intuit information as may be provided by Intuit to you. Intuit will provide you with a unique QB Time URL address for your use in directing third-parties to QB Time’s web site, which is Intuit’s sole sales source of QB Time Services (“QB Time Affiliate URL”). Intuit will use the QB Time Affiliate URL to track sales made to third-parties as a result of your referral. Unless explicitly and specifically approved in writing by Intuit in marketing QB Time under the terms of this Agreement, you may not place web site links to the QB Time website or to the QB Time website content in unsolicited email and other types of “spam”. You must market QB Time in such a manner that a third-party is knowingly forwarded to the QB Time web site when using any link to the QB Time Affiliate URL. You may not provide third-parties with any information regarding the delivery and costs of QB Time Services unless specifically approved by Intuit in advance and in writing.
PAYMENT FOR SERVICES. Intuit will pay you a fee equal to twenty percent (20%) of the subscription revenue received by Intuit for the initial twelve (12) months for each third-party that activates an account for QB Time Services through your QB Time Affiliate URL (“Affiliate Fee”). After the initial twelve (12) months, no Affiliate Fee will be earned by you. Intuit will pay you any earned Affiliate Fees within 30 days of the end of each calendar quarter. If the total Affiliate Fee to be paid to you is less than two hundred and fifty dollars ($250) at the end of each calendar quarter, Intuit reserves the right to postpone payment to the Affiliate until the amount to be paid is greater than two hundred and fifty dollars ($250). You acknowledge and agree that if you refer a third-party to utilize QB Time Services and the third-party subscribes to such services through any means other than through your QB Time Affiliate URL, you will not receive any Affiliate Fee for such subscription and you will never receive an Affiliate Fee or other compensation from Intuit based on such subscription or any other Intuit Services subscriptions or purchases by said third-party. You may also be eligible for “wholesale billing” where you are billed on behalf of your client’s use of the QB Time Services, which such billing shall be in accordance with the terms and pricing provided at the time you start the qualifying subscription.

Each party (a “Licensor”) hereby grants to the other party hereto (a “Licensee”), while this Agreement is in effect, a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, personal right and license to use its Marks (the “Licensor Marks”), in connection with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in accordance with the applicable trademark license agreement and trademark usage requirements provided and in accordance with and subject to any written guidelines and/or instructions as either QB Time branding guidelines or your company’s branding guidelines, as applicable.

Licensee hereby assigns and will assign in the future to Licensor all rights it may acquire by operation of law or otherwise in the Licensor Marks, including all applications or registrations therefore, along with the goodwill associated therewith. If Licensor objects in writing to the particular use by Licensee of any Licensor Marks on the grounds that (i) such use is contrary to the guidelines and/or instructions provided by Licensor to Licensee, or (ii) Licensor reasonably determines that such use is likely to cause harm to, or negatively reflect upon Licensor, then Licensee shall promptly correct, remedy or discontinue such use of the Licensor Marks. Licensor will have the sole right to, and in its sole discretion may commence, prosecute or defend, and control any action concerning the Licensor Marks. Licensee will not during the Term contest the validity of, by act or omission, jeopardize, challenge, or take any action inconsistent with, Licensor’s rights or goodwill in the Licensor Marks in any country, including attempted registration of the Licensor Marks- or any trademarks, service marks, trade names or domain names in its own name or in the name of its Affiliates.
