Terms and Conditions

Please read these terms carefully before using our services. By engaging with Duran Accelerator, you agree to be bound by these terms.

1. What We Do

Duran Accelerator connects brands and influencers for paid sponsorship campaigns. We work both directions:

• For brands: we source and introduce influencers who fit your target audience
• For influencers: we pitch you to brands and secure sponsorship opportunities

Either way, once we make the introduction and terms are agreed, the resulting campaign is run directly between the brand and the influencer. We are not involved in content creation, negotiation beyond the initial terms, or day-to-day campaign management.

2. Our Fee

We charge a 20% commission on every deal we introduce, regardless of which side brought us in.

For brands, our 20% comes out of the marketing budget you’re ready to spend on the placement. The remaining 80% is the influencer’s agreed rate, and they receive that in full, directly from you.

Example: your budget for a placement is $6,000. We invoice you $1,200 (20%) as our commission upfront. The remaining $4,800 is agreed as the influencer’s rate and paid to them directly once the campaign runs.

The same 20% applies when an influencer comes to us first. If their rate is $5,000, we pitch brands at $6,000 total — the influencer still receives their full $5,000 directly, and our $1,000 commission is invoiced to the brand separately.

Specific deal terms, amounts, and payment timing are confirmed separately for each campaign before any commission is invoiced.

3. What We Don’t Guarantee

If an introduction doesn’t lead anywhere, we’ll keep sourcing new matches. That’s part of the service, not a refund trigger.

4. Who Can Use This Service

You must be at least 18, represent a legitimate brand, business, or influencer channel, and be able to manage your own conversations and agreements once we’ve made an introduction.

5. Payment

• Our 20% commission is paid by the brand, upfront, once a deal is agreed and before the influencer’s identity or contact details are shared
• Once paid, the commission is non-refundable — it covers the introduction, which is considered delivered at that point
• No refunds because a campaign underperformed, content was delayed, or either party was unhappy with how the collaboration went — that’s outside what we control
• Chargebacks over campaign outcomes rather than our introduction work are a breach of these terms, and we’ll pursue recovery

6. Confidentiality

Please don’t share our sourcing and vetting process with others. This holds for 2 years after our work together ends.

7. Limitation of Liability

Our liability is limited to the commission paid on the specific deal in question. We’re not liable for campaign results, either party’s decision not to move forward, or disputes that come up between the brand and influencer once introduced.

8. Intellectual Property

Media kits and materials we compile remain our property. You’re licensed to use them for evaluating and running your campaign, not beyond that.

9. Governing Law

German law governs. Berlin courts have exclusive jurisdiction.

10. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of our services means you accept the current version.
