Partner & Accounting Practice Revenue Share Policy
Official commercial terms governing the 30% recurring partner revenue share program across xdew.co.za (South Africa) and xdew.online (Global & Multi-Currency).
The Core Revenue Share Commitment
30% Monthly Recurring Revenue on Active Paid WorkspacesAccounting firms, bookkeepers, CPA practices, and content creator partners earn a 30% recurring commission on all net subscription fees paid by clients who onboard through the partner’s practice management hub or tracked referral link.
1. Real-Time Churn & Revenue Drop Policy (No Phantom Payouts)
Revenue share commissions are calculated exclusively on net collected and active subscription fees.
- Client Cancellation or Departure: If a managed client cancels their subscription, closes their workspace, terminates services, or migrates away, the partner’s recurring revenue share generated by that client ceases immediately in real time.
- Proportional Revenue Adjustment: Your monthly commission automatically recalculates downward to reflect only currently active, paying accounts. There are zero unearned commissions, grace-period payments, or guaranteed minimum baselines for churned clients.
- Plan Downgrades & Non-Payment: If a client downgrades to a lower subscription tier or defaults on billing (unpaid invoices), the partner’s 30% rev-share is adjusted downward to match the new lower fee or paused entirely until successful payment collection.
- Refunds & Chargebacks: Any statutory refund or credit card chargeback issued to a client will be debited proportionally from the partner’s unpaid earnings ledger.

3. Payout Cycles & Verification
1. Payout Timing: Revenue share commissions earned in Month M are calculated and finalized on the 1st of Month M+1. Disbursements occur between the 15th and 20th of each calendar month following a 14-day clearance window to account for standard billing reversals.
2. Dashboard Telemetry: Partners can view their real-time client count, active monthly recurring revenue (MRR), pending rev-share, and lifetime paid payouts in the XDEW Practice Portal and Admin Hub.
3. Anti-Fraud & Self-Referrals: Partners may not refer their own primary billing entities to generate self-commissions. Any attempt to artificially manipulate subscriber counts or bypass payment verification will result in immediate disqualification and forfeiture of unearned funds.
4. Governing Law & Tax Responsibilities
Partners are independent commercial contractors. You are solely responsible for declaring all received revenue share earnings to your relevant tax authority (e.g. SARS for South African partners via provisional tax / ITR14 / ITR12, or IRS / HMRC / EU national revenue agencies).
This policy is governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa for operations on xdew.co.za and the laws of England and Wales for international operations on xdew.online.
