Affiliate & Referral Disclosure

What relationships may exist

Summit CPA Review may collaborate with universities, student organizations, CPA and accounting creators, ambassadors or other partners. A referral link or code may give a prospective student a trial extension or other benefit. A partner or content creator may also receive compensation, a commission, free product access or another benefit connected to referrals or promotion.

These arrangements are commercial relationships, not endorsements by the AICPA, NASBA, Prometric or a state board of accountancy.

How paid relationships should be disclosed

When Summit or an ambassador publishes a recommendation with a material connection, that connection should be explained clearly and conspicuously near the recommendation itself—such as “I may earn a commission if you subscribe using my link,” or “I received free access to review Summit.” A generic disclosure hidden only in a website footer is not a substitute for a disclosure next to a relevant endorsement.

Any opinions, results and testimonials should be honest and reflect real experiences. Paid participation does not guarantee particular outcomes for buyers.

School and student-organization referrals

Approved school referral links may offer a longer 10-day free trial to eligible subscribers, rather than the standard 3 days. The actual duration, selected renewal plan and charging date should be visible before payment. A school’s participation in an outreach or referral initiative is not proof of institutional endorsement unless the school explicitly says so.

Codes, eligibility and misuse

Referral benefits may be subject to eligibility, expiration, usage limits or specific partner terms. Discounts and commissions cannot be combined or assumed without an active offer. Do not create fake accounts, self-refer in violation of program terms, misrepresent affiliations or promise a permanent free subscription without authorization.
