MagicLinks reserves the right to determine the validity of any referral in its sole discretion.

MagicLinks may perform de-duplication across marketing channels, so as not to award a Commission if another type of referral was performed more recently.

6.8. Chargebacks. Retailers may determine after the event that a Sale was not a bona fide transaction, whether the goods sold are returned by the Customer; there is subsequent detection of a fraudulent transaction; or otherwise. The Retailer may make a Chargeback claim to the relevant Affiliate Network requesting for Commissions related to these Sales to be cancelled, reversed, or reduced as the case may be. Chargebacks are communicated to MagicLinks as they occur and are reflected in the reports accessible via the Magiclinks reporting interface. Commissions are conditional until the specified time for a Chargeback to be accepted by the Affiliate Network has elapsed. This period varies by Affiliate Network and by Retailer according to their own terms and conditions. In the event that you have received payment from Magiclinks which is subsequently reversed due to a Chargeback, your account will reflect this Chargeback in the total revenue earned reporting.
