These terms govern the Foxio referral programme. They form part of the Terms of Service; where the two differ on a referral matter, this document applies.
1.Who can take part
- Any Foxio account holder aged 18 or over, in good standing, may take part. No separate application is needed - your code already exists.
- You may not refer yourself. Creating a second account, or using a second email address, to claim your own discount or commission is not permitted.
- You may not claim a referral for someone who already had a Foxio account.
- One account, one code. Do not operate multiple accounts to accumulate rewards.
Your referral code appears on your affiliate page, together with your share link in the form `foxio.eu/{language}/register?ref=YOURCODE`.
2.The 10% discount for the person you invite
- A person who registers through your link receives 10% off their first subscription payment.
- The discount applies to one subscription checkout only. It is not applied to renewals, to one-off purchases, to book packs or to hardcover orders.
- The discount is applied automatically at checkout. It cannot be claimed retrospectively after a payment has been made without it.
- The discount cannot be combined with another promotional code unless we say otherwise.
For a referral to attach, the person must arrive through your link and complete registration. If they clear their browser storage, register from a different device, or sign up without the link, the referral may not attach - and we cannot add it afterwards.
3.Your 10% commission
- You earn 10% of the list price of the plan the person you referred subscribes to, paid to you in Foxio credits.
- Commission is calculated on the EUR list price, not on the amount actually charged in a local currency and not on the discounted amount. A subscriber in Hungary earns you the same as one in Slovakia.
- For an annual plan, commission is calculated on the annual price.
- Commission is paid once per referred person, when they first subscribe. Renewals, upgrades and later subscriptions do not generate further commission.
- Commission is credited automatically after the payment settles. If the payment fails, is reversed or is refunded, no commission is due, and we may reverse a commission already granted.
4.What credits are, and are not
Credits are a prepaid unit inside Foxio. For the purpose of calculating commission, one credit is treated as 0.01 EUR.
Credits accumulate in your Account and are shown on your referral page. What Credits can be redeemed for is set out in the product and may change from time to time; a change that reduces what Credits can be redeemed for is subject to the notice period below. Story Studio book packs and the per-book extras are bought with money and cannot be paid for with Credits.
Credits remain valid while your account is open. If your account is closed, unspent credits lapse.
5.How you may promote Foxio
Share your link with people who would genuinely benefit. You may:
- share it personally with friends, family and colleagues;
- post it on your own social media, blog or newsletter;
- use it in a classroom or parents' group where that is appropriate and permitted;
- use our brand name and logo in an unmodified form to identify Foxio.
You may not:
- send unsolicited bulk email, messages or comment spam - if a recipient could reasonably call it spam, do not send it;
- bid on "Foxio" or confusingly similar terms in paid search, or run ads that imply you are Foxio;
- register domains, social accounts or app listings containing our brand name;
- make claims about Foxio that are untrue, exaggerated or that we have not published - in particular about price, features, or educational outcomes;
- post your link on coupon, cashback or voucher sites without our written permission;
- use automated tools, bots or incentivised traffic to generate registrations;
- present the referral as a Foxio job, partnership or endorsement.
6.Fraud and abuse
We monitor the programme for abuse. If we reasonably believe a referral is not genuine, we may withhold or reverse the reward, remove the discount, suspend participation, or close the accounts involved.
- self-referral, or referral between accounts controlled by the same person or household;
- accounts created solely to generate rewards;
- referrals obtained through misrepresentation, spam or paid incentives;
- chargebacks or payment reversals on a referred subscription;
- any circumvention of these rules.
If a reward is withheld and you believe that is wrong, write to support@foxio.eu and a person will review it.
7.Tax and your own position
You are responsible for any tax consequences of rewards you receive under this programme, and for declaring them where your national law requires it. Foxio does not withhold tax and does not give tax advice.
Participating in the programme does not make you an employee, agent, partner or franchisee of Foxio, and does not entitle you to act or speak on our behalf.
If you take part in the course of a business or profession, you do so as an independent trader, and the consumer protections in the Terms of Service do not apply to that activity.
8.Data you can see about your referrals
Your affiliate page shows how many people registered with your code, how many subscribed, and how many credits you earned. It shows aggregate counts and dates, not the identity of the people concerned.
We do not disclose a referred person's name, email address or what they bought. Their privacy is not part of your reward.
9.Changes and ending the programme
We may change the commission rate, the discount rate, the credit prices or these terms, and we may suspend or end the programme. We will give at least 30 days' notice by email or in the product before a change that reduces rewards takes effect.
Credits you have already earned are not affected by a rate change or by the programme ending. Referrals that have attached but not yet converted are paid at the rate in force when the referral attached.
You may stop taking part at any time simply by not sharing your link.
