BLCKTEC Creator Incentive Program Official Terms and Conditions

1. Introduction

These Creator Incentive Program Terms and Conditions (the "Incentive Terms") are updated and effective as of October 25, 2024. Along with BLCKTEC’s general Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and Affiliate Marketing Guidelines (collectively, the "Governing Documents"), they form a binding agreement between you and BLCKTEC.

By participating in the BLCKTEC Creator Incentive Program (the "Program"), you agree to abide by these Incentive Terms and the Governing Documents. If any part of these Incentive Terms conflicts with the Governing Documents, the Incentive Terms will take precedence.

Your compliance with these Incentive Terms is necessary for participation and receipt of any rewards ("Awards"). Participation in the Program constitutes your agreement to the terms, as they may be updated from time to time.

2. Eligibility

To participate in the Program, you must:

  1. Be a current BLCKTEC TikTok Shop Creator.
  2. Be a legal resident of the United States or District of Columbia.
  3. Be at least eighteen (18) years of age.
  4. Have an approved TikTok Shop account according to TikTok’s eligibility policies.

If you do not meet all these criteria or fail to comply with any part of the Incentive Terms, you will be disqualified from participation.

3. Program Period

The Program runs from October 25, 2024, through December 31, 2024 (PST). Awards will be determined based on Gross Merchandise Value ("GMV") generated during this period. BLCKTEC’s clock is the official clock for determining Program deadlines.

4. How to Participate

Affiliates must generate gross merchandise value (“GMV”) from Product sales via your Affiliate Content on the BLCKTEC Shop on TikTok Shop (and only sales on the BLCKTEC Shop on TikTok Shop will be counted) during the Program Period in accordance with usual and customary Affiliate Services in order to be eligible to win an Award.

Affiliates must sign up for the Program by submitting a completed registration form found here: Registration Form in order to be eligible to win an Award. GMV generated outside of the Program Period, or outside the TikTok Shop platform or the BLCKTEC TikTok Shop, is not eligible.

To participate, generate GMV from BLCKTEC product sales via your TikTok Shop content. GMV must be generated on a single TikTok account. For every $1,000 GMV generated, you will earn 1 point ("Point"), which can be redeemed for rewards.

Only sales made on the BLCKTEC TikTok Shop during the Program Period will count. GMV generated before October 25, 2024, or outside the TikTok Shop platform will not be eligible.

5. Award Claims

Affiliates are responsible for keeping track of their GMV achieved during the Program Period. Once you have accumulated Points based on your GMV, take the following actions to make a claim for a reward (“Award Claim”) and be verified:

  1. Contact the BLCKTEC team via email at social@blcktec.com.
  2. Join the BLCKTEC Discord channel here: https://discord.gg/tmM9pE3Uus. If you do not have a Discord account, you can register for one for free at Discord.com.

All Award Claims must be initiated within thirty (30) days of the end date of the Program Period. Proof of email is not proof of receipt by BLCKTEC. The decisions of BLCKTEC will be final in all matters relating to this Incentive Program, including but not limited to verification of Promotion Period sales figures. BLCKTEC reserves the right to audit any Award Claim to verify accuracy/validity. Award Claims must include all requested information to verify GMV per the existing BLCKTEC Affiliate Terms and Conditions. Award Claims without sufficient information, as determined in BLCKTEC’s sole discretion, may not be processed as eligible for the Creator Incentive Program.

FOR CLARITY, Affiliates are responsible for submitting Award Claims. NO AWARD CLAIMS RECEIVED AFTER THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER THE END DATE OF THE PROGRAM PERIOD WILL BE ACCEPTED.

Following verification of your Award Claim, you will be notified by email and may be required to complete, execute, and return an Affidavit of Eligibility and, except where prohibited by law, a Liability and Publicity Release and other documents as reasonably requested by BLCKTEC within ten (10) days of such request/notification (“Winner Documentation”). Failure of a winner to comply with this requirement may result in disqualification and Award forfeiture, in BLCKTEC’s sole discretion. If a winner is otherwise eligible under these Incentive Terms but is deemed a minor in their state of primary residence (“Minor”), the Award will be awarded in the name of the winner's parent or legal guardian, who will be required to execute and return the Winner Documentation on the Minor’s behalf, as applicable.

Affiliates may redeem rewards based on the number of Points accumulated at the end of the Program Period. Every $1,000 GMV generated equals 1 point, which can be used to claim rewards or cash equivalents. The Points system allows Affiliates to choose their desired reward(s) based on their total Points.

There is no limit to the number of rewards you can claim, as long as you have the required Points balance. Once Points are redeemed for a reward, they will be deducted from your balance.

Please note that the availability of any prize is not guaranteed. In the event a prize item is unavailable, BLCKTEC will reward you with the cash equivalent based on the Approximate Retail Value (ARV) of the prize.

    6. Rewards and Points Deduction

    You can redeem Points for any reward from the available catalog, and each redemption will result in a deduction of the corresponding Points from your balance. You are free to choose rewards based on the number of Points you’ve accumulated during the Program Period.

    For example:

    • 5 Points ($5,000 GMV) can be redeemed for a reward valued at 5 Points.
    • 15 Points ($15,000 GMV) can be redeemed for a reward valued at 15 Points.

    You may also choose the cash equivalent of the reward, which will be provided in place of the physical item.

    7. Limitation of Liability

    BLCKTEC is not liable for any damages, losses, or injuries resulting from participation in the Program or the acceptance of any reward. By participating, you release BLCKTEC from all liability related to the Program and any prize fulfillment.

    8. Dispute Resolution

    All disputes arising from the Program will be resolved through binding arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association, in the State of California. Participants waive their right to a jury trial or class-action lawsuit.

    9. Taxes and Compliance

    Any rewards exceeding a value of $600 are subject to federal, state, and local taxes. Creators are responsible for reporting and paying applicable taxes. BLCKTEC will issue a 1099 form for rewards valued over this threshold.

    10. Program Modification

    BLCKTEC reserves the right to modify or terminate the Creator Incentive Program at any time. Any changes will be communicated through official company channels, and continued participation in the Program following these changes will constitute acceptance of the new terms.
