IRL Mode Host Program Terms

Effective date: June 5, 2026 · Last updated: June 5, 2026

Short version: you bring courtme's free IRL Mode matching to your event and can earn a revenue share on people who sign up there and later spend on the app. This page is the full deal. If anything here conflicts with marketing copy on the /irl page, this page and your signed host agreement control. IRL Mode is a beta program, so some mechanics may change — but we never claw back a rate you've already locked in.

§1 Who can participate

The program is operated by CourtMe, Inc., a Delaware C-Corporation based in Houston, Texas ("CourtMe," "courtme," "we," "us"). To take part as a host ("you"), you must:

  • Be at least 18 (or an entity acting through an authorized adult representative);
  • Organize a real, lawful event open to adults;
  • Provide accurate application, identity, payment, and tax information; and
  • Comply with these terms, your signed host agreement, and applicable law.

We approve hosts at our discretion and may decline or remove any host.

§2 What you get

For approved founding hosts, at no cost (events up to 500 attendees; larger events by separate written arrangement):

  • Free in-event AI matching (IRL Mode) for your attendees;
  • A done-for-you promo kit (email + Instagram/flyer assets), licensed to promote your event only;
  • Co-marketing of your event to courtme's audience, at our discretion;
  • A ticket-sales push to past attendees and opted-in nearby users, where available; and
  • Revenue share on attributed users (§3).

Dollar "values" shown in our materials are estimates of value, not a cash entitlement. Founding-host benefits are limited and may close at any time.

§3 Revenue share

3.1 The rate. You earn 30% of Net Revenue from each attributed user, for the 3 months after that user signs up.

3.2 What "Net Revenue" means. Net Revenue is money actually received and kept by courtme from an attributed user's in-app purchases during the attribution window, after deducting refunds, credits, reversals and chargebacks (including 3-in-30 Guarantee refunds), payment-processing and app-store fees, taxes, and the value of any free/promotional/referral tokens. It is not gross spend. If money is refunded or charged back, it was never Net Revenue and is not payable.

3.3 Attribution. A user is attributed to the host whose event QR or join code they first used at signup ("first-touch"). One user maps to one host, permanently. The window is 3 months from that user's signup. Self-referrals, fake or incentivized-only signups, bots, and any attribution gaming earn nothing and may lead to removal.

3.4 Rate review. We may adjust the rate for new signups after 60 days of beta, on notice. Earnings already accruing at a locked rate are never reduced or clawed back.

3.5 No guarantee. Revenue share depends entirely on real spending by real users once the dating product is live. We do not guarantee any signups, spend, or earnings. Calculator figures on /irl are hypothetical and not a promise of results.

§4 Payouts

  • Method: Stripe Connect (or similar). You must complete payout, identity, and tax onboarding before any payout is released.
  • Cadence: monthly, net-30 — a month's earnings are paid roughly 30 days after that month closes, once the refund/chargeback window settles.
  • Minimum: $50. Balances below $50 roll over until you reach the threshold.
  • Clawback: refunds, chargebacks, reversals, or fraud adjustments after a payout are deducted from your next payout(s).
  • Currency: USD.

§5 Taxes & your status

You participate as an independent contractor. This is not an employment, agency, partnership, or joint-venture relationship, and you cannot bind courtme. You are responsible for your own taxes, must provide a valid W-9 (or equivalent), and we will issue a 1099 where required (generally $600+ in a calendar year).

§6 Your obligations

  • Represent courtme honestly — use only the claims and assets in the promo kit; don't invent features, guarantees, or earnings claims.
  • Disclose your connection — because you earn a commission, clearly tell attendees you may be compensated when you promote courtme, consistent with FTC endorsement rules. We provide suggested language.
  • Market lawfully — any email/SMS you send must comply with CAN-SPAM, TCPA, and similar laws (valid consent, working opt-out, accurate sender info). Your contact lists are your responsibility.
  • Run a real, lawful event and meet all venue, permit, alcohol, and safety requirements.
  • Don't game the system — no fake or incentivized-only signups, no attribution manipulation.
  • Respect IP and attendee privacy — use the kit only for your event; don't scrape, copy, or misuse the app or collect attendee data on our behalf.

§7 Fraud, suspension & removal

We may withhold or reverse payouts, suspend, or remove a host — with or without notice — for fraud, fake or self-referred accounts, attribution gaming, false claims, unlawful marketing, event safety issues, or any breach. Amounts tied to fraudulent or reversed activity are forfeited.

§8 Attendee data

Attendees are courtme's users. Their personal information is collected and handled by courtme under our Privacy Policy. You receive aggregate event stats only (scans, signups, matches, payout totals) — never attendees' personal contact or profile data — and you will not try to identify or re-market to individual attendees using courtme data except through features we provide.

§9 Intellectual property & media

Courtme keeps all rights to its marks, software, and promo kit, and grants you a limited, revocable license to use the provided assets solely to promote your event during your participation. You grant courtme a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use your event/business name, logo, and event details for co-marketing. Any photo or video used from your event must have appropriate consent from the people shown; you are responsible for notice and consent at your own event.

§10 Beta, "as is," and changes

The program and IRL Mode are provided "as is" during beta. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the program, the feature, the promo kit, or co-marketing at any time on reasonable notice. We do not warrant any attendance, gender ratio, match volume, signup rate, or earnings.

§11 Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, courtme is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or lost-profit damages. Our total aggregate liability arising out of the program is limited to the greater of the revenue share paid to you in the 3 months before the claim, or $100.

§12 Indemnification

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless courtme from claims, damages, and costs arising out of your event, your marketing and contact lists, your breach of these terms or of law (including FTC, CAN-SPAM, TCPA, and consumer-protection rules), and any injury, incident, or dispute connected to your event.

§13 Term & termination

Either party may end participation at any time, for any reason, on notice — no exclusivity, no lock-in. We may terminate immediately for breach, fraud, or safety concerns. On termination, earnings accrued through that date remain payable, subject to the minimum threshold and clawback rules.

§14 Governing law & disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas. Disputes are subject to the dispute-resolution and binding-arbitration provisions of the courtme Terms of Service, with venue in Harris County, Texas, except where applicable law requires otherwise.

§15 Order of precedence

Your signed host agreement together with these terms is the entire agreement on this subject. If there is a conflict: (1) a signed written host agreement, then (2) these Host Program Terms, then (3) the /irl and /host-terms pages and any marketing copy. Marketing copy never overrides these terms.
