Realtgate Partner Network Terms & Conditions

1. Scope and Eligibility

These Terms & Conditions govern your participation in the Realtgate Partner Network. The Partner Network enables qualified professionals, advisors, and corporate partners to introduce prospective property owners and commercial opportunities to Realtgate Ltd. for professional property management and related services. Participation is subject to identity verification, approval by Realtgate, and ongoing adherence to these terms.

2. Independent Partner Status

Partners act strictly as independent commercial participants. Participation does not create an employment relationship, agency, partnership, franchise, or joint venture between you and Realtgate Ltd. Partners have no authority to bind Realtgate, make representations or warranties on Realtgate's behalf, or enter into contracts in Realtgate's name.

3. Referral Submission and Attribution

Client and property introductions must be submitted through your designated Partner Portal workspace or tracking referral links. Referrals are qualified upon verification of prospective property owner interest and acceptance of a commercial property management engagement by Realtgate. Self-referrals and duplicate submissions are strictly prohibited under programme terms.

4. Partner Commission and Programme Rules

These commercial rules are governed by the current Realtgate Partner Programme Rules — Version 2026-02 (Programme Version: RPV-2026-02).

Partner commissions are earned from qualifying Property Management commission actually received by Realtgate from property owners directly referred and attributed to the Partner. Partner commissions are NOT calculated from rent collected from tenants.

Initial Commission

For a newly referred and qualified property owner, the Partner earns 25% of the qualifying initial Property Management commission actually received by Realtgate. The 25% rate applies to the owner's initial qualifying Property Management engagement and is not repeated as an annual 25% commission. If the qualifying Property Management commission is received in more than one payment, Partner earnings are calculated proportionally as those qualifying payments are received.

Recurring Commission

A Partner becomes eligible for recurring commission after reaching at least 5 qualified active directly referred Property Management owners.

Recurring Partner commission begins after the initial 12-month period, from the first anniversary of the owner's qualifying Property Management relationship. From that point onward, qualifying Property Management commission actually received by Realtgate is calculated using the Partner's applicable recurring tier rate.

Recurring commission rates are:

Multiple Properties Under One Referred Owner

For tier qualification, one property owner counts as one qualified owner, regardless of the number of properties owned. For commission calculation, qualifying Property Management commission actually received by Realtgate from all eligible properties managed for that referred owner is included.

For example, if a referred owner places 6 properties under management: that owner still counts as 1 qualified owner toward the Partner’s tier; but qualifying Property Management commission received by Realtgate from all 6 properties is included in the Partner’s commission calculation.

Qualification & Accounting Rules

• Owner-Based Counting: One property owner counts as ONE qualified owner regardless of how many properties or units that owner has.
• Tier Changes: When a Partner moves to a higher or lower tier, the new recurring commission rate applies to qualifying Property Management commission received from that point forward. Earnings already recorded remain unchanged.
• Immediate Tier Upgrades: Tier upgrades take effect when the qualifying threshold is reached.
• 90-Day Downgrade Protection: Existing 90-day downgrade protection applies when a Partner drops below the current tier threshold.
• Portfolio Partner Permanence: Portfolio Partner designation remains permanent once legitimately achieved at 5 qualified owners.
• Clearing and Payout Rules: Earnings remain subject to the existing clearing rules (7 days) and payout rules (minimum payout threshold of ₦25,000.00).

5. Settlement Banking and KYC Verification

Commission disbursements are issued exclusively to verified Nigerian commercial bank accounts registered in the partner's legal name or verified business entity. Payout disbursements remain held in pending status until KYC documentation and settlement account details have been validated by Realtgate Compliance.

6. Security and Account Governance

Partners are required to maintain strict security of their credentials, including mandatory two-factor authentication (2FA). Partners must promptly notify Realtgate of any unauthorized access or compromise. Realtgate reserves the right to suspend or terminate partner accounts for fraudulent conduct, parameter tampering, abuse, or material breach of these terms.

7. Privacy and Data Handling

Personal and commercial data processed in connection with your application and partner account is handled in accordance with the general Realtgate Privacy Policy and applicable Nigerian data protection regulations.

8. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms & Conditions and Programme Rules are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Any controversy or dispute arising under these terms shall be subject to the competent courts of Nigeria.
