You'll be eligible for a Revenue Share for 3 years after a new End User (who is also your Registered Lead) subscribes to the Subscription Service and begins paid service, assuming no service interruption.
​
6.4 Revenue Share Percentage
The specific Revenue Share you receive depends on the Net Revenue generated by your referrals within a fiscal year.

​
6.5 Revenue Share Payment
We (or one of our affiliates) will pay your earned Revenue Share within 60 days after the end of each fiscal quarter. This amount will be equal to the Net Revenue we recognize from your Referral Transactions during that quarter, multiplied by your designated Revenue Share percentage.

If multiple Referral Partners contribute to a sale, we may apportion the Revenue Share based on our determination of their contribution.
