Simple Finders Fee Agreement

"I need a Simple Finder's Fee Agreement for my tech startup based in Auckland, offering 5% commission to independent consultants who introduce potential SaaS clients, with a 12-month tail period and minimum deal size of NZD 50,000."

Document background
The Simple Finder's Fee Agreement is a fundamental business document used in New Zealand when one party (the finder) agrees to introduce potential business opportunities, clients, or partners to another party (the principal) in exchange for a fee. This document is particularly relevant in today's interconnected business environment where networking and referrals play a crucial role in business development. The agreement needs to comply with New Zealand's legal framework, including the Contract and Commercial Law Act 2017 and relevant financial services regulations. It typically includes detailed provisions about what constitutes a qualified introduction, the fee structure, payment terms, and the duration of the finder's rights to compensation. This Simple Finder's Fee Agreement is designed to provide clear terms while maintaining flexibility for various business contexts and protecting both parties' interests under New Zealand law.
