Referral Program Terms

Version 2026-10-28. CXO Systems, LLC ("CXO Ads", "we") runs this program. By signing up you agree to these terms.

How it works

Sign up at cxoad.com/refer and get your own referral link and QR code.
Introduce local businesses that might like to advertise on CXO Ads screens. They use your link (or QR code) to tell us about their business or make a free sample ad.
Earn a reward when a business you referred becomes a paying advertiser.

Rewards

What happens	Who earns	Reward
The advertiser you referred pays for its first month	You	$50
That advertiser books 3 or more venues in its first booking	You	$25 more
A referral by a venue's confirmed staff stays a paying advertiser for 6 months	The venue	$20
An advertiser comes straight from a venue's own on-screen QR code (no person's link) and pays for 6 months	The venue	$40

First link wins. A referral counts for the first referral link the business used, for 90 days.
Staff at a venue: if you work at or own a venue with a CXO Ads screen, say so when you sign up. The venue's admin confirms it. Your own reward does not depend on that; the venue's reward does.
Rewards are digital gift cards, sent by email or text once we have received the advertiser's payment, usually within 30 days. If that payment is refunded or charged back, the reward is cancelled.
Taxes: rewards may be taxable income. If you earn $600 or more in a calendar year, we will ask for a W-9 before paying more, and send you a Form 1099.
New referrers can earn up to $250 a month while we get to know you; we raise it for referrers in good standing.

What does not count

A business already in touch with us, already advertising with us, or already referred by someone else.
Your own business, a business you own part of, or a venue advertising on its own screens.
Referrals made by spam, by pretending to be CXO Ads, or by promising prices, discounts or placements we have not offered.
Referrers who are CXO Ads employees or contractors.

Advertisers we do not accept

Our screens are in public places, including family businesses and clinics. Ads must be truthful, lawful and suitable for all ages. We don't accept ads for:

adult content, tobacco, vaping, cannabis or illegal drugs;
payday and predatory loans;
anything misleading, hateful, or that makes unproven health claims;
material the advertiser doesn't own or have permission to use.

We accept only with conditions (and only at venues that allow them):

firearms and weapons: stores, ranges and training, with no graphic violence;
political and issue ads, with the "paid for by" disclosure the law requires;
gambling and gaming that is legal where the ad plays, with any age limits and responsible-gaming messages.

We review every ad before it goes on screen and may decline any advertiser. No reward is earned for an advertiser we decline.

Your conduct

No spam. Only refer people you know or contact in person or one-to-one. Do not send bulk emails or texts, use auto-dialers, or contact anyone who asked not to be contacted.
Be honest. You are not a CXO Ads employee or agent and cannot make promises for us. If you share your link publicly (for example on social media), say that you earn a referral reward.
You must be 18 or older and live in the United States.

General

We may change or end the program, or these terms, at any time; rewards already earned under the old terms will still be paid. We may suspend a referrer and cancel unpaid rewards for fraud or a breach of these terms. These terms are governed by the laws of Texas. Questions: contact us.
