Affiliate Programme Terms & Conditions
MOROCCAN TAN
Golden Code Affiliate Programme
Affiliate Programme Terms & Conditions
Last updated: August 2026
These Affiliate Programme Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern participation in the MoroccanTan Golden Code Affiliate Programme (the “Programme”). The Programme allows approved influencers, creators, salons, distributors, retail partners and other approved partners (“Affiliate”, “you” or “your”) to promote MoroccanTan products using an assigned affiliate link and/or unique discount code.
Who you are contracting with. The MoroccanTan entity that operates the Programme for you, receives your application and pays your commission depends on your location:
• Australia and New Zealand: Moroccan Tan Pty Ltd (ABN 52 159 135 850; ACN 159 135 850), 664–672 Warrigal Road, Oakleigh South VIC 3167, Australia.
• United Kingdom and European Union: Moroccan Tan UK Ltd (UK VAT 509 7257 70; EORI GB509725770000), 71–75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, WC2H 9JQ, United Kingdom.
In these Terms, “MoroccanTan”, “we”, “us” or “our” means the entity that applies to you under the paragraph above. These Terms operate alongside the Moroccan Tan Website Terms and Policies published at moroccantan.com.au; where the Programme is concerned and there is any inconsistency, these Terms apply to the Programme.
1. About the Programme
The Programme is an ongoing referral and content partnership. Approved Affiliates receive a unique affiliate link and/or discount code, share authentic tagged content promoting MoroccanTan, and earn commission on qualifying sales attributed to them under these Terms.
2. Acceptance and Eligibility
By applying to or participating in the Programme, you confirm that you have read and agree to these Terms. MoroccanTan may approve, reject or decline any application at its discretion. You must provide accurate and current information, must be at least 18 years of age, and must be legally able to enter into this agreement in your place of residence.
3. Programme Offer
Your audience may receive 15% off eligible purchases when they use your valid Golden Code, subject to any exclusions shown at checkout.
Approved Affiliates earn a 10% commission on qualifying sales attributed to them under these Terms.
The Programme is intended to support authentic, ongoing content and referrals. Participation does not create an employment, agency, franchise, joint venture or partnership relationship between you and MoroccanTan.
MoroccanTan may change, suspend or discontinue the Programme, its benefits, commission structure, eligible products or promotional terms with reasonable notice where required by law.
4. Affiliate Link, Code and Attribution
Each approved Affiliate may receive a unique affiliate link and/or discount code. Affiliate attribution will generally be made using the last eligible affiliate click before purchase, provided the referral remains valid. A direct use of a valid Affiliate discount code may also attribute the order to that Affiliate.
Unless otherwise stated by MoroccanTan, referral tracking will remain active for 30 days from an eligible affiliate click. Attribution may be affected by browser settings, cookie consent, ad blockers, device changes or other technical limitations outside MoroccanTan’s reasonable control.
5. Commission Calculation
The standard commission rate is 10%. Commission is calculated on the qualifying net product value of an attributed order after the applicable Affiliate discount and excluding taxes, shipping, delivery charges, gift wrapping, refunded or cancelled amounts, and other non-commissionable charges.
Example: if eligible products total $100 and the customer receives 15% off, the qualifying product value is $85 and the Affiliate commission is $8.50.
6. Commission Status and Reversals
• Pending: the order has been attributed but is still subject to the applicable validation/refund period.
• Approved: the commission has passed validation and is eligible for payout.
• Paid: the commission has been included in a completed payout.
• Cancelled/Refunded: the underlying order was cancelled or refunded and the associated commission may be removed or reversed.
• Rejected: MoroccanTan has determined that the transaction is not eligible for commission, including where fraud, abuse or a Terms violation is suspected.
MoroccanTan may hold, adjust or reverse commissions where an order is refunded, cancelled, charged back, fraudulent, self-referred, generated through prohibited methods, or otherwise not a qualifying sale.
7. Payouts
Commission is paid in the currency of the region under which you contract: Australian dollars (AUD) for Affiliates in Australia and New Zealand, and British pounds (GBP) for Affiliates in the United Kingdom and European Union.
The standard minimum payout threshold is $50 AUD for Affiliates paid in Australian dollars and £50 GBP for Affiliates paid in British pounds, unless MoroccanTan states otherwise. Payouts are intended to be processed monthly after eligible commissions have been approved and the applicable refund/validation period has passed.
You are responsible for providing accurate payment information and for any taxes, duties or reporting obligations applicable to your commission income. MoroccanTan may delay payment where required information is missing or where a transaction is under review.
8. Promotional and Content Rules
You agree that all promotional activity will:
• Be truthful, accurate, authentic and based on your genuine experience where you describe personal use.
• Clearly disclose your affiliate or commercial relationship with MoroccanTan on every post, story, video or other content that promotes MoroccanTan or uses your code, in a manner appropriate to the platform and applicable law.
• Use only MoroccanTan logos, images, videos, product information and other brand assets that MoroccanTan has provided or expressly approved for your use.
• Comply with applicable advertising, consumer protection, privacy, intellectual property and platform rules.
• Follow the content standards and brand guidance MoroccanTan makes available from time to time. MoroccanTan does not require you to submit content for approval before you post, but may request that you correct, amend or remove content that does not comply with these Terms or applicable law.
8.1 Disclosure Standards
Your disclosure must be clear, prominent and upfront, so that it is immediately obvious to your audience on first view that the content is a paid or incentivised promotion. It must not be hidden among other hashtags, links or text. For Affiliates in Australia and New Zealand, this means disclosure consistent with the Australian Consumer Law, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) guidance, and the Australian Association of National Advertisers (AANA) Code of Ethics, using a clear label such as #ad, Advertisement, Paid Partnership or Paid Promotion. For Affiliates in the United Kingdom and European Union, this means disclosure consistent with the UK Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) and Committee of Advertising Practice (CAP) Code and the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) guidance. Where a platform provides a paid-partnership or branded-content tool, you must also use it.
8.2 Product and Health Claims
You must use only claims that MoroccanTan has approved or published about its products, and you must not make any medical, therapeutic, guaranteed-result, misleading or unsubstantiated claim. In particular, because MoroccanTan self-tan products are cosmetics and are not sunscreens, you must not state or imply that any MoroccanTan product provides sun protection, an SPF, protection against UV, skin-cancer prevention, a safe alternative to sun exposure or sunbeds, or any other health or therapeutic benefit. You warrant that any statement you make about personal results reflects your genuine experience.
9. Prohibited Activities
You must not:
• Purchase products through your own affiliate link or code for the purpose of earning commission.
• Create fake, duplicate, automated or fraudulent orders, leads, clicks, accounts or traffic.
• Use bots, click farms, malware, forced redirects, cookie stuffing or other methods intended to manipulate attribution.
• Spam users by email, direct message, comments, text or other communications.
• Misrepresent yourself as MoroccanTan, an employee, authorised representative or official account.
• Make false, deceptive, defamatory, discriminatory, unlawful or unsafe statements in connection with MoroccanTan.
• Register domains, social accounts, paid-search advertisements or other properties that are confusingly similar to MoroccanTan without written approval.
• Offer unauthorised additional discounts, cashback, rebates or incentives using the Affiliate code.
• Use the Programme to promote illegal, sexually explicit, hateful, violent or otherwise harmful content.
10. Intellectual Property
MoroccanTan retains all rights in its trademarks, logos, product names, images, copy and other brand materials. Subject to these Terms, MoroccanTan grants you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use approved Programme assets solely to promote MoroccanTan during your participation in the Programme.
11. Your Content and Licence to MoroccanTan
“Your Content” means any content you create, post or share that features, tags, mentions or promotes MoroccanTan or its products, or that you submit to MoroccanTan, including images, video, audio, text, reviews and your social posts, together with your name, handle, username, voice, image and likeness as they appear in that content.
You grant MoroccanTan a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, fully paid-up, transferable and sub-licensable licence to use, reproduce, edit, adapt, modify, publish, translate, distribute, display and otherwise exploit Your Content, and your name, handle, image and likeness within it, in any and all media now known or later developed, for any purpose connected with MoroccanTan’s business, including organic social content, MoroccanTan’s own websites and channels, paid advertising and promotional and marketing materials, without further approval, notice, attribution or payment to you.
This licence continues even after your participation in the Programme ends. You waive, and consent to MoroccanTan’s use of Your Content in a way that would otherwise be inconsistent with, any moral rights you have in Your Content to the extent permitted by law, including rights of attribution and integrity.
You warrant that you own or control all rights in Your Content, that it does not infringe the rights of any third party, and that any other person who appears in or contributed to Your Content has consented to MoroccanTan’s use of it on these terms. Nothing in this clause requires MoroccanTan to use Your Content, and nothing limits rights that cannot lawfully be waived or excluded under applicable law; where you are in the United Kingdom or European Union, this licence operates alongside your data protection rights described in the Privacy Policy.
12. Exclusivity and Conduct
The Programme is non-exclusive. You may promote other brands, including other tanning or beauty brands. However, you must not promote MoroccanTan and a directly competing self-tan or tanning brand in the same piece of content or using the same post, and you must not use your Golden Code alongside a competitor’s discount or affiliate code in the same content.
You must not disparage MoroccanTan or make defamatory, misleading or damaging statements about MoroccanTan, its products, its people or its other partners. You must not do anything that brings, or is reasonably likely to bring, MoroccanTan into disrepute.
13. Confidentiality
This clause protects MoroccanTan’s information. You must keep confidential any non-public information MoroccanTan provides or that you learn through the Programme, including commission rates and structures, dashboard data, sales figures, unreleased products, launch plans, PR-pack contents, briefs and other commercial information (“Confidential Information”), and you must use it only for the purpose of participating in the Programme and not for your own or any third party’s benefit.
This obligation does not apply only to the extent that you can show, with written evidence, that the information: is in the public domain other than through any act or omission by you or anyone connected with you; was already lawfully in your possession without any obligation of confidence before MoroccanTan disclosed it; or was independently developed by you without any use of or reference to the Confidential Information. If you are required by law, court or regulator to disclose Confidential Information, you may do so only to the extent required and must, where lawful, notify MoroccanTan in advance and give MoroccanTan a reasonable opportunity to object or seek protective measures. You remain responsible for keeping the information confidential in all other respects.
MoroccanTan is not subject to a reciprocal confidentiality obligation to you under these Terms; MoroccanTan’s handling of your personal information is instead governed by the Privacy Policy. This clause survives termination.
14. Independent Contractor and Tax
You participate as an independent party. Nothing in these Terms creates an employment, agency, partnership or joint venture relationship between you and MoroccanTan. You are responsible for your own tax, and for any GST, VAT or other tax registration, reporting and remittance obligations that apply to your commission income. You may be asked to provide tax information relevant to your region (for example, in Australia, an ABN, or MoroccanTan may otherwise be required to withhold tax where no ABN is provided). Commission amounts are stated exclusive of any GST or VAT unless MoroccanTan states otherwise.
15. Data Protection Obligations
If you collect, receive or handle any personal information in connection with your promotion of MoroccanTan, for example when you run a giveaway or collect follower details, you must do so lawfully, handle that information in accordance with applicable privacy and data protection laws, and not transfer it to MoroccanTan except as MoroccanTan directs. You must not represent that you collect personal information on MoroccanTan’s behalf unless MoroccanTan has agreed in writing.
16. Compliance and Monitoring
MoroccanTan may review traffic, orders, content and commission activity for compliance and fraud prevention. You agree to cooperate reasonably with enquiries concerning suspicious or disputed transactions.
17. Indemnity
To the extent permitted by law, you indemnify MoroccanTan and its related entities, and their officers and employees, against any loss, liability, cost, claim or expense (including reasonable legal costs) arising out of or in connection with your content, your conduct, your use of your affiliate link or code, your breach of these Terms or applicable law, your failure to make required disclosures, any claim you make about MoroccanTan products, your tax position, or any third-party claim relating to Your Content or to a person who appears in it. This clause survives termination and does not require MoroccanTan to have incurred the loss through you alone. Nothing in this clause makes you liable to the extent the loss was caused by MoroccanTan, or beyond what is permitted by applicable law.
18. Suspension and Termination
MoroccanTan may suspend or terminate your participation in the Programme at any time, for any reason or no reason, at its absolute discretion, and with or without notice. Without limiting that right, circumstances in which MoroccanTan may suspend or terminate include where you breach these Terms, applicable law, platform rules or brand requirements, where MoroccanTan reasonably suspects fraud or abuse, or where your conduct brings, or is reasonably likely to bring, MoroccanTan into disrepute.
MoroccanTan may also close, pause or cancel the Programme as a whole, or withdraw, disable or reissue any affiliate link or code, at its absolute discretion.
On suspension or termination, you must stop using your affiliate link, code and MoroccanTan promotional materials, and, if MoroccanTan asks, remove or take down content featuring MoroccanTan that you posted in connection with the Programme (this does not affect MoroccanTan’s own continuing licence to use Your Content under clause 11). Commissions that have already been approved before termination remain payable, subject to any lawful set-off or reversal, and MoroccanTan may hold, adjust, reverse or reject commissions that have not yet been approved in accordance with these Terms. Nothing in this clause limits any rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded under applicable law.
19. Privacy
Personal information collected through the Programme will be handled in accordance with the MoroccanTan Golden Code Affiliate Programme Privacy Policy and, where relevant, the Moroccan Tan Privacy Policy published at moroccantan.com.au. By applying, you acknowledge that you have read the Privacy Policy and understand how your information is collected and used.
20. Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability
To the extent permitted by law, the Programme is provided without guarantees of traffic, sales or income. MoroccanTan will not be responsible for indirect, incidental or consequential losses arising from participation in the Programme, except where liability cannot lawfully be excluded.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded under applicable consumer protection or other mandatory laws, including the Australian Consumer Law and equivalent laws in other jurisdictions.
21. General
Assignment. MoroccanTan may assign, novate or transfer its rights and obligations under these Terms, including to another MoroccanTan entity or to a purchaser of its business. You may not assign your rights or obligations without MoroccanTan’s prior written consent.
Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any written brief or instruction MoroccanTan gives you, are the entire agreement between you and MoroccanTan about the Programme. They replace any earlier discussions, and you do not rely on any marketing, pitch or campaign material as a promise or representation.
Force majeure. MoroccanTan is not liable for any delay or failure to perform caused by events beyond its reasonable control.
Survival. Clauses that by their nature should continue after termination, including those on intellectual property, Your Content and licence (clause 11), confidentiality, indemnity, tax, limitation of liability and governing law, survive termination of your participation.
Waiver and severance. If MoroccanTan does not enforce a right, that is not a waiver of it. If any part of these Terms is unenforceable, the rest continues to apply.
22. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia, and this applies to all Affiliates regardless of the contracting entity or your location. You and MoroccanTan submit to the courts of Victoria, Australia for any matter arising out of or in connection with these Terms or the Programme. Nothing in this clause limits any mandatory consumer or data protection rights available to you in your country of residence.
23. Changes to These Terms
MoroccanTan may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated through the Programme website, dashboard or email where appropriate. Continued participation after the effective date of an updated version constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by law.
