Partner Terms
ARC Partner Programme, India. Last updated 12 November 2026.
These terms apply to everyone accepted into the ARC Partner Programme run by ARC Athlete Recovery ("ARC", "we"). By applying, you ("Partner") agree to them.
1. Joining
The programme is by invitation. Every application is reviewed and ARC may accept or decline any application. Once accepted, you receive your own referral link, your own discount code and access to your partner dashboard.
2. Commission
- You earn 10% commission on qualifying sales you drive.
- Commission is calculated on the order value after discounts, excluding GST, shipping and other taxes.
- A sale qualifies when a customer buys through your referral link within 60 days of clicking it, uses your discount code at checkout, or quotes your code to the ARC team when ordering by WhatsApp or phone.
- Commission is earned only on orders that are delivered. Cancelled, refused, returned to origin (including cash on delivery orders not accepted), refunded or fraudulent orders earn no commission, and any commission already shown on them is reversed.
- Sales from paid advertising run by ARC, including partnership ads using your content, are sent to ARC's own pages and do not earn commission.
- Purchases you make for yourself using your own link or code do not earn commission.
3. Your customers' discount
Customers using your code receive the discount shown in your dashboard (currently 5%). Codes cannot be combined with other offers unless ARC says so.
4. Payment
- Commission is confirmed 15 days after the order is delivered.
- Confirmed commission is paid on or around the 5th of each month by UPI or bank transfer to the details in your dashboard.
- The minimum payout is ₹1,000. Balances below this carry over to the next month.
- Tax is deducted at source where Indian law requires it. You are responsible for any tax on your earnings.
- You receive a statement listing every order behind each payment.
5. Product
Invited partners may receive ARC product. Product is provided for genuine use and content, not for resale.
6. Content and posting
- Seeded partners agree to the number of posts set out in their invitation (normally 3 posts a month for 3 months).
- Each post must be published as an Instagram Collab with @arcathleterecovery, with the paid partnership label switched on, and include your code in the caption.
- Share your honest experience. Do not make medical or health claims, promise results, or say anything ARC products cannot back.
- Clearly disclose your partnership with ARC in line with ASCI guidelines and any applicable law.
7. Permission to use your content
You give ARC permission to run your ARC posts as partnership ads from your handle, and to reshare them on ARC's own channels, for 6 months from the date each post is published. ARC will not change the meaning of your content.
8. What is not allowed
- Posting your code or link on coupon, deal or cashback sites.
- Bidding on "ARC", "ARC Athlete Recovery" or ARC product names in paid search or social ads.
- Sharing your code outside your own channels, or with groups set up to pass on discount codes.
- Creating fake orders, using misleading content, or impersonating ARC.
Breaking these rules means the commission involved is forfeited and ARC may end your participation.
9. Changes and ending
ARC may change these terms or the commission rate with 15 days' notice by email. Either side can leave the programme at any time. Confirmed commission earned before leaving is still paid, unless it was earned by breaking these terms.
10. Relationship
You take part as an independent partner, not as an employee or agent of ARC.
