Document background
The Affiliate Addendum is designed for use when companies operating under South African law wish to establish or modify affiliate marketing relationships within their existing contractual framework. This document type is particularly relevant when a company needs to supplement their main agreement with specific terms for affiliate marketing activities, including commission structures, performance metrics, and compliance requirements. The addendum ensures alignment with South African legislation, particularly the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act, POPIA, and Consumer Protection Act. It's commonly used in e-commerce, retail, and digital services sectors where businesses engage affiliate partners for marketing and sales activities. The document typically includes detailed provisions for commission calculations, marketing guidelines, data protection protocols, and compliance requirements specific to the South African market.
