Affiliate Program Agreement
Molecula Labs LLC · v2.2 · September 2026
This Affiliate Program Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of the date of the Partner’s signature below (the “Effective Date”) by and between Molecula Labs LLC, a Virginia limited liability company, support@molecularesearch.com (“Molecula”); and the person or entity identified in Exhibit A (step 01 and 02 of this form) (“Partner”). Molecula and Partner are each a “party” and together the “parties.”
1. The Program
This Agreement sets out the standard terms of the Molecula Labs affiliate program, which apply equally to every partner. Molecula appoints Partner as a non-exclusive, independent marketing partner to refer customers to molecularesearch.com, unless Partner opts in to exclusivity under Section 9. Nothing here creates an employment, partnership, joint venture, franchise, or agency relationship, and Partner has no authority to bind Molecula, make commitments on its behalf, or hold itself out as Molecula’s employee or representative.
2. Referral Tracking
Molecula will activate a unique discount code for Partner (the “Partner Code”). Partner proposes the code in Exhibit A; if it is already in use or unsuitable, Molecula will activate a close alternative and confirm it by email, and that confirmed code is the Partner Code. Molecula may also issue Partner a tracked referral link.
An order is referred by Partner when (a) the Partner Code is applied at checkout, or (b) where no partner code is applied, the customer arrived through Partner’s referral link within the previous 30 days. A partner code always takes priority over a link. A customer whose first paid order is referred by Partner becomes Partner’s “Referred Customer,” and that customer’s later orders are credited to Partner for as long as this Agreement remains in effect, whether or not the code or link is used again. Each customer can be a Referred Customer of only one partner. Orders placed by Partner, from Partner’s own account, or to Partner’s own billing or shipping details are never referred orders. Molecula’s order records control in any dispute about attribution.
3. Commission
Partner earns a commission of 20% of the Commission Base on every Qualifying Order from a Referred Customer, for as long as Partner remains an active partner under this Agreement.
The “Commission Base” is the product subtotal the customer actually paid after all discounts. It excludes shipping, handling, insurance, taxes, payment-processing fees, store credit and gift-card value, and any free, gift, sample, or reward line. There is no multi-level or override commission: Partner earns nothing on sales made by other partners, including partners Partner introduced to the program.
4. Qualifying Orders, Refunds and Chargebacks
A “Qualifying Order” is a referred order that reaches paid status and is not later refunded, cancelled, or charged back. If an order is refunded, cancelled, or charged back, its commission is reversed; if already paid, Molecula may deduct it from future payouts. Commission is forfeited on any order Molecula reasonably determines to be fraudulent or self-referred, and Molecula may withhold payment during a good-faith review.
5. Payment
Commission on a Qualifying Order becomes payable thirty (30) days after the order is paid, once the refund and chargeback window has closed. Molecula pays all commission that became payable during a calendar month on or before the fifteenth (15th) day of the following month, by the payout method in Exhibit A — Cash App, PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, or bank transfer. A minimum balance of $50.00 is required; smaller balances roll over until the minimum is reached. Partner is responsible for keeping payout details current and for any fees charged by Partner’s own payment provider.
6. Customer Code
The Partner Code gives customers 10% off eligible products. It does not stack with Member Week, the first-order free vial, or any other coupon or promotional code. While Member Week or any similar sitewide promotion is running, Molecula may suspend the Partner Code for the duration of that promotion. Molecula may designate which products the Partner Code applies to and may exclude product categories on written notice under Section 12.
7. Partner Discount
Once Partner has brought in five (5) lifetime Qualifying Orders with a Commission Base of at least $40 each, Partner receives 50% off Partner’s own orders, up to $300 of retail value per calendar month. Partner’s own orders never count toward the five. The partner discount does not apply to research kits or Kit Subscriptions and cannot be combined with any other code, promotion, gift, or offer. Products bought with the partner discount are for Partner’s own laboratory research use only. Resale of any discounted product is prohibited and is grounds for immediate termination.
8. Monthly Free-Vial Rewards
Each calendar month, Partner earns free-vial rewards based on the number of Qualifying Orders with a Commission Base of at least $40 placed that month by distinct Referred Customers:
| Referred orders in the month | Reward |
|---|
| 2 – 4 | 1 free vial from the gift menu |
| 5 – 9 | 2 free vials from the gift menu |
| 10 – 19 | 3 free vials, any single vial |
| 20 or more | 5 free vials, any single vial |
The “gift menu” is the list of vials Molecula offers as its standard first-order gift at the time the reward is claimed. At the 10–19 and 20+ tiers, any single vial in the catalogue may be chosen, except that GLP-1 compounds are limited to their smallest size and kits, Kit Subscriptions, and diluent are excluded. Exclusive partners under Section 9 receive one additional vial at every tier.
Rewards ship with Partner’s next order, or on their own once three or more vials are owed. Rewards not claimed within 60 days of the end of the month in which they were earned expire. Rewards have no cash value and cannot be transferred or exchanged. Any welcome product sent to a new partner is at Molecula’s sole discretion and is not an entitlement under this Agreement.
9. Exclusivity (Optional)
Partner may opt in to exclusivity in Exhibit A. An exclusive partner may not, during the term, promote, hold a discount code or referral link with, or accept payment from any other research peptide vendor, and must remove any existing competitor codes and links within fourteen (14) days of signing. The exclusive reward bonus applies only while Partner remains exclusive. A breach of exclusivity ends the exclusive bonus immediately and may result in termination. Partner may end exclusivity on fourteen (14) days’ written notice without ending this Agreement.
10. Brand and Materials
During the term, Molecula grants Partner a limited, non-exclusive, revocable, non-transferable license to use Molecula’s name, logo, product images, and approved materials solely to promote Molecula under this Agreement. Partner may not alter the logo or create derivative branding. All goodwill from Partner’s use belongs to Molecula, and Partner will remove Molecula branding from its channels promptly on termination.
11. Term and Termination
This Agreement runs month to month from the date it is signed by both parties. Either party may end it on fourteen (14) days’ written notice by email. Molecula may end it immediately for any breach of Section 7 (resale) or Section 9 (exclusivity), for fraud or self-referral, or for any conduct Molecula reasonably believes is unlawful or harmful to its business.
When the Agreement ends, the Partner Code and any referral link are deactivated and lifetime commission on Referred Customers ends. Commission already earned on Qualifying Orders placed before termination is paid in the ordinary course, except that all unpaid commission and unclaimed rewards are forfeited where termination is for a resale or fraud breach, or for conduct Molecula reasonably believes is unlawful or harmful to its business. Sections 4, 13, 15, 16, and 17 survive termination.
12. Changes to the Program
Molecula may change commission rates, the customer discount, rewards, eligible products, or other program terms on thirty (30) days’ written notice by email. Changes apply only to orders placed after the notice period ends; commission and rewards already earned are not affected. If Partner does not accept a change, Partner’s remedy is to end this Agreement under Section 11.
13. Confidentiality
Partner will keep confidential any non-public information Molecula shares, including pricing, order and revenue figures, supplier information, unreleased products, and the terms of Partner’s arrangement, and will use it only to perform this Agreement.
14. Independent Contractor
Partner is an independent contractor, not an employee. Commission is paid gross, with nothing withheld, and Partner is responsible for reporting its own income and paying its own taxes.
15. Responsibility, Liability and Indemnification
The program is provided “as is.” Molecula does not guarantee any level of sales, earnings, or product availability. Neither party is liable to the other for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages or lost profits, and Molecula’s total liability under this Agreement will not exceed the commission paid or payable to Partner in the six (6) months before the claim.
Partner will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Molecula Labs LLC and its members, officers, and agents from any claim, loss, penalty, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from Partner’s content or statements, Partner’s breach of Section 7 or 9, or Partner’s use of the Molecula name or logo outside Section 10.
16. Governing Law and Disputes
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. The parties will try in good faith to resolve any dispute informally for thirty (30) days before filing suit, and any action will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Virginia.
17. General
This Agreement, including Exhibit A, is the entire agreement between the parties about the affiliate program and replaces any earlier affiliate agreement between them. It may be amended only in writing signed by both parties, except as provided in Section 12. If any provision is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. Partner may not assign this Agreement; Molecula may assign it to a successor to its business. A failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver. Notices are effective when sent by email to the addresses in Exhibit A.
18. Electronic Signature
The parties agree that this Agreement may be signed electronically and that a typed name entered in the signature block, together with the date and signing record generated at signature, is a valid and binding signature under the federal E-SIGN Act and the Virginia Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. An electronic or scanned copy has the same effect as an original.
