Terms and Conditions


EFFECTIVE DATE: February 11, 2020
LAST UPDATED DATE: October 24, 2024

These terms and conditions (collectively, the “Terms” or “Agreement”) set out the terms which govern the agreement between Octopusapp Inc. D/B/A Jobber (“Company” or “Jobber”), referrers who send referral links and/or codes (each, a “Referrer”), and prospective customers of Company in receipt of referral links from Referrers (each, a “Referee”), relating to the provision of marketing services by the Referrer to the Company. By sending a referral link to Referees under Company’s Customer Referral Program, Referrers and Referees hereby agree to all Terms set out herein.

  1. Purpose. This Agreement allows Referrers to market and promote Company’s Jobber software and related services (the “Service”) to Referees under Company’s Customer Referral Program.
  2. Eligibility. In order to participate in the Customer Referral Program, it is necessary, but not sufficient, that Referrers: (a) be at least 18 years old; (b) not be an employee of Company or its affiliates; (c) not be prohibited from participating in the Customer Referral Program by any applicable law or contractual agreement with the Company and/or a third party; and (d) not refer themselves to start a Jobber trial.
  3. Process. For referral to be successful, it is necessary, but not sufficient, that the following criteria be met: (a) Referee must not currently be a Jobber customer or a previous Jobber customer within the last three (3) years; (b) Referee must use the Referrer’s referral code or link to sign up for a new Jobber trial; (c) Referee must complete the sign up for a Jobber trial; and (d) Referee must successfully complete their first payment subscribing for the Service as further contemplated herein. Company reserves the right to allow referral codes to be added after the Jobber trial period has ended, at its sole discretion.
  4. Necessary Consent. Referrer represents and warrants that they have the consent of the Referee(s) to send the referrals.
  5. Referee Engagement. Company reserves the right to: (a) enter into any agreements with Referees on terms and conditions acceptable to Company, or to not enter into any agreements at all; (b) set the terms for Referees’ engagement with the Company including any remuneration for such participation; and (c) enter into similar commission arrangements with third parties.
  6. Referral Incentive.
    1. The Referrer may earn certain incentives (the “Incentive”) as further described herein for each Referee that subscribes to the Services. Company shall determine, in its sole discretion, whether the Referee is eligible for an Incentive and reserves the right to reject any Referee for any reason. Company reserves the right to change or cancel the Incentives at any time. 
    2. Issuance of the Incentive will be made after the Company receives its first payment subscribing for the Service from the applicable Referee. Incentives may vary and are subject to change without notice. The current Incentives are as described on Jobber’s Customer Referral Program Help Centre webpage, available here: https://help.getjobber.com/hc/en-us/articles/115009616267-Referrals (the “Current Incentive Page”).
    3. The Incentive cannot be combined with any other offer is valid for a limited time only, and may be modified or terminated at any any time, in the Company’s sole discretion. 
    4. If Referrer and/or Referee earns an Incentive in the form of a credit on their Jobber account (a “Credit”), based on satisfying the criteria described herein and as further described in the Current Incentive Page, such Credit will be added to an account owner Referrer and/or Referee’s respective accounts only after Company receives the applicable Referee’s first payment subscribing for the Service. The Credit amount will be calculated based on the most recent payment made by the Referrer or Referee, as applicable, and shall be calculated based on the actual amount paid, net of any active promotions, other credit applied, taxes, add-ons, and additional users (as those terms are used on https://www.getjobber.com/pricing/). For clarity, a Referrer or Referee who has subscribed to the Services on a monthly plan will receive the Credit on their next invoice based on their previous month’s invoice amount, and annual subscribers will receive the Credit on their next invoice based on their previous year’s invoice amount in accordance with the Current Incentive Page. If a Referrer or Referee changes the subscription plan level for the Services, their Credit value will be adjusted accordingly to reflect the new plan’s pricing. For example, if a Referrer or Referee, as applicable, is on a Connect plan during the first eligible Credit month and upgrades to a Grow plan in the second month, they will be given a Credit equal to one month of Connect fees and one month of Grow fees. The Credit amount will be calculated based on the most recent payment made by the Referrer or Referee, as applicable, and shall be calculated based on the actual amount paid, net of any active promotions, other credit applied, taxes, add-ons, and additional users (as those terms are used on https://www.getjobber.com/pricing/). For example, if a Referee received a 30% promotional rate on their last payment for their subscription, a Credit issued under the referral plan will cover the remaining 70% of the Referrer’s subscription fee. 
    5. Referrer and Referee hereby acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Jobber account owners who purchase their subscription through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store are not eligible for the Credit, and instead, Referrers and/or Referees, including, with respect to Referrers only, Jobber account owners and/or users of Jobber accounts who do not own said Jobber accounts, as applicable, may receive a $100 USD prepaid gift card, distributed electronically approximately 31 days after the first payment subscribing for the Service only if the Referrer and/or Referee, as applicable, remains as an active Jobber user in good standing, as determined in Jobber’s sole discretion, at such time, and based on satisfying the criteria described herein and as further described in the Current Incentive Page (a “Commission”). Any such gift cards must be activated within four months of receipt, and failure to activate any such gift cards within this timeframe will result in their expiration, and the Company will not be liable or responsible for any amounts in connection with such expired gift cards. The Company reserves the right to cancel such Commission.
    6. Referrer is permitted to share its referral code or link directly with friends and family (e.g. via email, personal Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn). However, posting referral codes on public forums, including but not limited to Reddit and the Jobber Entrepreneurship Group, may result in the reversal, restriction, cancellation, or rejection of any referral Incentives.
  7. Taxes. Incentives in the form of Credits are exclusive of tax, in accordance with the Company’s Terms of Service. Incentives in the form of Commissions are inclusive of applicable federal, provincial, state, local or other governmental sales, goods and services, harmonized or other taxes, fees or charges imposed by a government authority (“Taxes”). Referrer agrees and acknowledges that it is responsible for the reporting and remitting of all applicable Taxes that arise from the Incentive. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company may withhold from the Incentive any amounts required to be withheld by the appropriate government authority, provided that Company remits such amounts to the appropriate government authority on behalf of the Referrer and supplies Referrer with evidence of such payment.
  8. Trademark Usage. The trademarks, logos, service marks and trade names under which Company markets the Service (the “Marks”) shall remain the exclusive property of Company. This Agreement gives Referrer no license regarding the use of such Marks, except that during the term of this Agreement Company grants to Referrer a restricted, non-transferable, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable and revocable license to use the Marks to market and promote Company’s Service, business and initiatives to Referees. Referrer agrees not to use the Marks in any way that may be determined objectionable by Company or confusing to any third parties regarding the nature of the relationship between Company and Referrer. Company reserves the right to approve particular uses of the Marks and/or revoke the license granted herein at any time.
