Influencer Program Policy

Program Overview

Akangbou partners with creators who reach construction audiences. Influencers refer builders or supporters, host co-branded events, and share marketplace campaigns. This policy explains eligibility, payout mechanics, and compliance expectations.

Eligibility & Onboarding

• You must apply at influencers@akangbou.com with audience metrics, sample content, and disclosure history.
• Approved partners sign a short-form agreement plus this policy. We may run KYC checks through Stripe Connect.
• Accounts must stay in good standing (no policy violations, no overdue invoices).

Commission Structure

Content & Disclosure Requirements (FTC Endorsement Guides)

Because you earn commissions and may receive free or discounted access, you have a “material connection” with Akangbou. U.S. law (FTC Act §5 and 16 CFR Part 255) requires you to disclose it clearly every time you promote Akangbou.

• Disclose in every post, story, video, livestream, email, text, or message that includes your link, code, or an endorsement of Akangbou — e.g., “#ad”, “Paid partner of Akangbou”, or “I earn a commission if you sign up with my link.”
• Make the disclosure clear and conspicuous: at the start of captions (not after “more” or among many hashtags), both spoken and on-screen in video, and repeated during livestreams.
• Use plain words. “#sp”, “#collab”, “#thanks”, or a platform “paid partnership” tag alone are not enough.
• Only share your honest opinions and actual experience. Do not make earnings, income, savings, or ROI claims, and describe pricing and features accurately.
• Do not post or solicit reviews of Akangbou or of professionals on the platform without disclosing your connection, and never post fake reviews.
• Share campaign or perk stats exactly as displayed inside the dashboard—no rounding up.
• Share buttons in your dashboard pre-fill a disclosure; keep it when you edit the text.

Use of Assets

• We may repurpose your submitted content in paid ads or product marketing with credit.
• You may use Akangbou logos and templates provided in the media kit but may not alter them beyond color adjustments.
• All influencer landing pages must link back to akangbou.com or approved short links.

Compliance & Termination

• Failure to disclose sponsored content, fraudulent referrals, or policy violations may forfeit unpaid commissions. We monitor partner content and may require corrections or removal.
• Either party may terminate with 14 days’ notice. Outstanding qualified commissions will still be paid.
• We reserve the right to require content edits or takedowns to maintain brand safety.

Support

Influencer partners receive a priority Slack channel or email alias once onboarded. For urgent payout issues, contact influencer-program@akangbou.com.
