SWA CREATOR PROGRAM
Program Terms
These terms govern the SWA Creator Refund Challenge and SWA affiliate program.
1. Agreement and operator
By applying to, enrolling in, submitting content to, or accepting any benefit from the SWA Creator Refund Challenge or SWA affiliate program (together, the “Program”), you agree to these Program Terms and the current SWA website policies linked below. If you do not agree, do not participate.
The SWA entity identified as the seller or contracting party in the then-current SWA Terms of Service administers the Program (“SWA,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). These Program Terms do not create a relationship with any entertainment studio, film franchise, or other third party.
2. Eligibility
You must be legally able to enter a binding agreement where you live and provide accurate, complete information. If you are below the age of majority, a parent or legal guardian must approve and manage participation where permitted. SWA may limit participation by product, order, location, platform, account, campaign period, or other published criteria.
An “eligible product” or “eligible order” is one SWA designates as eligible for the Creator Refund Challenge at the time of entry or confirms in writing. Canceled, previously refunded, fraudulent, disputed, or charged-back orders are ineligible. Gift cards and purchases made solely to manipulate the Program are ineligible.
3. Eligible Refund Base
Eligible Refund Base. The Eligible Refund Base is the lesser of: (a) the eligible merchandise subtotal actually paid after discounts; or (b) $497 USD. Taxes, shipping, duties, customs charges, gift cards, shipping protection, add-ons, financing charges, currency-conversion costs, and amounts already refunded are excluded.
The Eligible Refund Base is calculated once for the applicable eligible order and may be reduced by prior refunds, credits, disputes, chargebacks, or other amounts returned. The total of all promotional refunds for that order cannot exceed the Eligible Refund Base.
4. Verified-view milestones
- 5,000 verified views: unlocks 50% of the Eligible Refund Base, subject to approval.
- 10,000 verified views: unlocks 100% of the Eligible Refund Base, subject to approval.
If the 50% milestone has already been paid, reaching and receiving approval for the higher milestone unlocks only the remaining eligible balance. Each qualifying video must independently reach its threshold. Views from different videos, posts, platforms, edits, reuploads, or accounts cannot be combined.
You may submit multiple videos, but duplicate views do not count twice and the total promotional refund remains limited by the Eligible Refund Base. A view shown by a platform is not automatically a verified view. “Verified views” are authentic views that SWA can reasonably validate under these Terms.
5. Qualifying content
To qualify, each submitted video must:
- be created by or for you with all necessary rights and permissions;
- be original, publicly accessible, and available for verification;
- visibly feature an eligible SWA product in a genuine and material way;
- mention or tag SWA as instructed for the applicable challenge;
- comply with the platform's rules, applicable law, safety instructions, advertising disclosure rules, and these Terms;
- avoid unlawful, unsafe, harassing, hateful, obscene, infringing, deceptive, or misleading material; and
- remain live long enough for SWA to complete verification and process any approved benefit.
Bought, botted, exchanged, duplicated, manipulated, incentivized without approval, or otherwise inauthentic views are ineligible. Paid boosting, advertising, or whitelisting counts only if SWA provides prior written approval. SWA may exclude views that cannot be reliably verified.
6. Submission and verification
Submit through the method SWA specifies. You must provide your order number, order email, public post URL, and native-platform analytics when requested. SWA may also request identity or ownership confirmation, unedited analytics screen recordings, timestamps, audience-source information, ad-spend records, platform notifications, or other reasonable evidence.
Approval remains subject to verification. SWA may deny, pause, or investigate a submission where information is missing, inconsistent, unavailable, altered, misleading, or reasonably suspected to involve fraud or manipulation. You authorize SWA to contact you using the details you provide about Program administration.
7. Promotional refunds
An approved Creator Refund Challenge payment is a promotional rebate and not a product return. You keep the eligible products after an approved promotional refund. Where reasonably possible, SWA returns an approved promotional refund to the original payment method. Processing time can depend on the payment provider, bank, currency, and other systems outside SWA's control.
The Program does not replace or expand SWA's ordinary cancellation, return, warranty, final-sale, fraud, or chargeback policies. Those matters remain governed by the applicable refund policy, store terms, and product-specific terms. A promotional refund is not available for an amount already returned, disputed, or charged back.
8. Affiliate commissions
An approved affiliate earns $50 for each qualifying sale. A “qualifying sale” must be attributed through the approved affiliate link or code under the affiliate platform's then-current settings, be successfully paid, and remain valid after applicable cancellations, returns, refunds, disputes, fraud reviews, and chargebacks. A click, cart, pending order, declined payment, or unverified dashboard event is not a qualifying sale.
Reversed, refunded, canceled, disputed, fraudulent, charged-back, or otherwise disqualified transactions can result in a reversed or withheld commission. SWA may offset a reversed commission against future amounts where lawful. Attribution, cookie duration, code priority, payment schedule, payout method, holding period, currency, and payout threshold are governed by the current settings and notices available in the approved affiliate platform; these Terms do not promise a fixed setting.
9. Affiliate conduct
Affiliates must promote SWA honestly and lawfully. The following are prohibited:
- self-referrals or purchases made mainly to obtain a commission;
- spam, unsolicited bulk messages, harassment, or unlawful contact collection;
- cookie stuffing, forced clicks, hidden links, deceptive redirects, artificial attribution, or attribution interference;
- unauthorized coupon distribution, fabricated offers, false urgency, impersonation, or false claims;
- fraudulent, coordinated, circular, canceled, or manipulated orders;
- bidding on, purchasing, or targeting SWA trademarks, brand names, misspellings, domains, or brand-keyword advertising without SWA's prior written permission;
- registering domains, accounts, usernames, or pages that impersonate or appear officially operated by SWA; and
- misleading claims about products, the Creator Refund Challenge, commissions, tracking, earnings, shipping, warranties, promotions, or affiliation with third-party intellectual property owners.
10. Disclosures and genuine opinions
You must clearly and conspicuously disclose your material relationship with SWA in each relevant promotion, including commissions and any gifted, discounted, or refunded product. The disclosure must be easy to notice and understand in the content itself and comply with applicable advertising law and platform tools.
No positive review is required. Creators may give genuine opinions and should clearly separate personal experience from objective product claims. You may not make a claim you know is false or that SWA has not approved or currently substantiated. Participation does not guarantee views, approval, promotional refunds, commissions, sales, or income.
11. Intellectual property and content use
You retain ownership of original content you create. By submitting content to the Program, you grant SWA a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, transferable and sublicensable license to host, reproduce, resize, edit for length or format, display, distribute, repost, and use the submitted content and your public account name for Program administration, verification, organic social media, advertising, and other SWA marketing, with attribution where reasonably practical. This license continues for content already used or committed to a campaign before withdrawal, subject to applicable law.
You represent that you have the rights and permissions required for every person, location, recording, logo, music track, costume, prop, image, and other material in the submitted content. You may use SWA-approved brand assets only for Program participation, may not alter or imply ownership of SWA marks, and must stop using them when permission ends. No license is granted to third-party entertainment characters, likenesses, marks, music, or other intellectual property.
12. Privacy
SWA may process application, order, payment, analytics, tax, identity, content, device, fraud-prevention, and communication data to operate, verify, secure, improve, and enforce the Program. The current SWA Privacy Policy applies. Affiliate-platform providers, payment processors, ecommerce providers, analytics services, and professional advisers may process data for those purposes under their own terms and applicable agreements.
Do not send passwords, full payment-card data, government identifiers, or other unnecessary sensitive information through ordinary support channels.
13. Independent status and taxes
Affiliates and creators participate as independent contractors, not employees, agents, franchisees, partners, or legal representatives of SWA. You cannot bind SWA or make commitments on its behalf. You are responsible for your equipment, expenses, permits, insurance, records, disclosures, and all taxes, filings, and reporting obligations arising from Program benefits or income.
14. Suspension, termination, and changes
SWA may review, suspend, limit, or terminate participation, links, codes, submissions, pending benefits, or access where reasonably necessary to address suspected fraud, policy violations, legal or platform requirements, security risks, abuse, operational changes, or Program closure. Material misconduct may result in forfeiture or recovery of improperly obtained benefits to the extent permitted by law.
SWA may modify or discontinue the Program and update these Terms. The version date above will be updated for published revisions. Unless law requires otherwise, changes apply prospectively when posted or on the stated effective date. Closing the Program does not make an ineligible or unverified submission eligible.
15. Disclaimers and liability
The Program is provided on an “as available” basis. Platform analytics, attribution, social reach, audience behavior, payment processing, and third-party systems can change or fail. To the maximum extent permitted by law, SWA disclaims implied warranties relating to the Program and does not guarantee availability, uninterrupted tracking, verified views, approval, promotional refunds, qualifying sales, commissions, or income.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, SWA will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, lost profits, lost opportunities, lost data, platform actions, or third-party conduct arising from the Program. Nothing in these Terms limits rights or liability that cannot lawfully be limited.
16. Disputes and governing terms
The governing-law, forum, dispute-resolution, arbitration, waiver, and related provisions in the then-current SWA Terms of Service apply to these Program Terms and are incorporated by reference to the extent lawful. Before filing a formal claim, contact SWA and provide enough information for a good-faith attempt to resolve the issue.
17. General
If these Program Terms conflict with a more specific written Program notice, the more specific notice controls only for that subject. If they conflict with store policies on returns, warranties, shipping, cancellation, final sale, fraud, or chargebacks, the applicable store policy controls for that store matter. If any provision is unenforceable, it will be limited or removed only to the minimum extent necessary and the remainder stays in effect.
Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not transfer participation, claims, links, codes, or benefits without written permission. Headings are for convenience. Electronic records and notices satisfy writing requirements where permitted.
