Backstage Pass Affiliate Program

Backstage Pass Affiliate Program

Terms & Conditions

Effective Date: November 10, 2026

Welcome to the Roadie Crew! Before applying, please read through the terms and conditions.

Apply Here: Backstage Pass Affiliate Program Application

We're excited you're interested in representing Roasted Roadie. We love good coffee, loud music, creative people, and anyone who isn't afraid to bring a little personality to the table.

Our affiliate program is pretty simple: you help spread the word about Roasted Roadie, and you earn a commission when your referrals turn into qualifying sales. 

A Quick Note About TikTok & Instagram Shopping

Roasted Roadie products are currently unavailable through TikTok Shop due to previous order fulfillment and integration issues.

You're still welcome to create TikTok videos promoting our coffee and share your affiliate code! However, you won't be able to tag our products directly in your TikTok videos. For TikTok promotions, simply direct your audience to www.roastedroadie.com and remind them to enter your affiliate code at checkout.

Instagram shopping is available, so you can tag our products in your Instagram content for easier shopping.

Thanks for helping us keep things running smoothly for our customers! 🤘☕

Before you hit the stage, here's what you need to know.


PART ONE: THE ROADIE RULES

1. Joining the Crew

Our affiliate program is open to individuals who genuinely want to promote Roasted Roadie and its products.

To join:

  • You must be at least 18 years old.

  • You must submit an accurate affiliate application.

  • You must provide valid contact and payment information when requested.

  • Your application must be approved by Roasted Roadie.

  • You must agree to these Terms & Conditions.

We reserve the right to approve or decline applications based on program suitability and legitimate business considerations, consistent with applicable law.

Being accepted into the program does not make you an employee, business partner, or official spokesperson for Roasted Roadie.

You're an independent affiliate doing your own thing.

2. Your Backstage Pass Commission

Approved affiliates earn 10% commission on qualifying sales attributed to their assigned affiliate code.

Here's how it works:

  • You'll receive a unique affiliate code.

  • You can share your code through approved social media accounts, websites, and other promotional channels.

  • Customers must use your assigned code at checkout for the purchase to qualify under our code-based program.

  • Commissions are calculated on the eligible product subtotal, after discounts and excluding taxes, shipping charges, and refunded amounts.

  • Only completed, paid, and properly attributed orders qualify.

For example, if someone purchases a $17.99 bag of coffee using your affiliate code, your commission would be approximately $1.80, assuming no discounts or other adjustments.

Important: An affiliate code is used to identify your referrals. It does not automatically promise the customer a discount.

Roasted Roadie does not guarantee any minimum earnings or number of sales.

3. Getting Paid

We want our affiliates to get paid fairly, while allowing enough time to handle refunds, cancellations, and payment issues.

Our payment policy is:

  • Commissions are reviewed after a qualifying order has been completed and paid.

  • Each commission is subject to a 30-day holding period after the order date.

  • Approved commissions are paid on a monthly schedule after the holding period has ended.

  • Canceled, refunded, fraudulent, or otherwise ineligible orders do not earn commissions.

  • If an order is partially refunded, the commission may be adjusted accordingly.

  • If a commission was already paid on a subsequently refunded or reversed order, Roasted Roadie may deduct the overpayment from future commissions, where legally permitted.

Payments are made using the payment methods supported and approved by Roasted Roadie.

Affiliates are responsible for providing accurate payment details and handling their own applicable taxes.

4. Your Code, Your Responsibility

Your affiliate code is assigned to you and may not be sold, transferred, or shared with another affiliate for their use.

You may promote your code through your own content, including social media posts, videos, blogs, and other approved channels.

However:

  • Do not place your code on coupon aggregation websites or unauthorized discount directories.

  • Do not use spam, fake accounts, bots, or misleading advertising.

  • Do not purchase through your own code to generate commissions.

  • Do not arrange artificial purchases or manipulate referral tracking.

  • Do not claim your code provides a discount unless Roasted Roadie has authorized one.

We may investigate suspicious activity and reject commissions resulting from misuse.

5. Creative Freedom & Brand Personality

We don't expect our affiliates to sound like corporate robots.

Roasted Roadie is built around rock music, coffee, individuality, and a healthy appreciation for doing things your own way.

We welcome:

  • Rock-and-roll culture and rebellious creativity.

  • Humor, sarcasm, satire, and occasional profanity.

  • Authentic product reviews and personal experiences.

  • Original photos, videos, and creative promotional ideas.

  • Individuality, inclusivity, and respectful self-expression.

You don't need to be polished or perfect. We'd rather see something genuine than another overly rehearsed advertisement.

Be loud. Be bold. Be a little inappropriate. Just don't be a dick.

6. Keep the Brand Out of the Crossfire

Affiliates are welcome to have their own personal beliefs, opinions, and causes they care about.

However, Roasted Roadie promotional content, affiliate codes, product images, and brand materials may not be used to endorse, oppose, fundraise for, or campaign on behalf of:

  • Political candidates or political parties.

  • Government officials, agencies, or political campaigns.

  • Specific legislation or ballot initiatives.

  • Religious institutions or religious campaigns.

  • Advocacy campaigns or organizations, regardless of viewpoint.

These restrictions apply to promotional use of the Roasted Roadie brand, not to an affiliate's unrelated personal expression.

Affiliates must not suggest that Roasted Roadie supports their personal political, religious, or organizational positions.

Our brand welcomes people from different backgrounds and walks of life. We do not permit hateful, discriminatory, threatening, harassing, or violent promotional content.

Let the music make the statement. Let the coffee fuel the ride.

7. Be Honest About Your Affiliation

When promoting Roasted Roadie, you must clearly disclose that you may earn a commission.

Examples include:

  • "I earn a commission when you shop using my code."

  • "Roasted Roadie affiliate — I may earn from qualifying purchases."

  • "Ad: I earn a commission on purchases using my code."

Disclosures must be easy to notice and understand, and must comply with applicable Federal Trade Commission (FTC) requirements and platform rules.

Don't hide disclosures in a wall of hashtags or assume that simply using an affiliate code makes the relationship obvious.

You must also be honest about the products. Do not invent reviews, exaggerate benefits, or make unsupported health or performance claims.

8. Using Our Name, Logo & Content

Approved affiliates may use Roasted Roadie-provided product images, logos, and promotional materials solely to promote our products as part of the program.

You may not:

  • Alter our logo in a misleading or damaging way.

  • Claim ownership of Roasted Roadie branding.

  • Create accounts, websites, or advertisements that impersonate Roasted Roadie.

  • Claim to be an employee or authorized representative.

  • Use our branding for unrelated products, services, or campaigns without written permission.

All Roasted Roadie trademarks, logos, product names, and other brand materials remain the property of their respective owners.

Permission to use these materials ends when your affiliate participation ends.

9. Leaving the Crew

You may leave the affiliate program at any time by contacting Roasted Roadie.

We may suspend or terminate participation for violations of these terms, fraudulent activity, misuse of our brand, or other legitimate business reasons.

When participation ends:

  • Your affiliate code may be disabled.

  • You must stop representing yourself as an active Roasted Roadie affiliate.

  • You must remove unauthorized promotional materials when requested.

  • Valid commissions earned before termination remain subject to verification, the 30-day holding period, and applicable payment rules.

  • Fraudulent or ineligible commissions may be withheld or reversed.


PART TWO: THE OFFICIAL BUSINESS STUFF

10. Independent Contractor Relationship

Affiliates participate as independent contractors and not as employees, agents, partners, or joint venturers of Roasted Roadie.

Roasted Roadie grants approved affiliates a limited, nonexclusive, nontransferable, revocable permission to use authorized brand materials solely for approved affiliate promotional activities.

No ownership rights in Roasted Roadie's intellectual property are transferred.

Affiliates retain ownership of their original content, subject to any separate written agreement granting Roasted Roadie permission to reuse it.

Roasted Roadie may request removal of promotional content that violates these terms or applicable law.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, affiliates agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Roasted Roadie and its owners, employees, and representatives from third-party claims, damages, liabilities, and reasonable legal expenses arising from an affiliate's unlawful conduct, infringement of another party's rights, or material violation of these terms.

This provision does not require an affiliate to indemnify Roasted Roadie for Roasted Roadie's own unlawful conduct or negligence.

15. Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Roasted Roadie will not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages arising from participation in the affiliate program, including lost profits or anticipated earnings.

Nothing in this agreement excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded.

16. Program Changes

Roasted Roadie may modify or discontinue the affiliate program, including commission rates, promotional requirements, and program features.

Material changes will be communicated to active affiliates through their registered email address or affiliate dashboard.

Commission changes will apply prospectively unless otherwise required by law or expressly agreed.

Continued participation after the effective date of updated terms constitutes acceptance of those terms, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Roasted Roadie may use third-party service providers, including GoAffPro, to administer the program.

Any legal proceedings arising from this agreement will be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in Washington, subject to applicable jurisdiction and consumer protection laws.

Before initiating legal proceedings, the parties agree to make a good-faith effort to resolve disputes through written communication, unless urgent legal relief is necessary.

19. General Terms

This agreement represents the terms governing participation in the Roasted Roadie Backstage Pass Affiliate Program.

If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect to the extent permitted by law.

Failure to enforce a provision does not waive the right to enforce it later.
