Legal & Policies

Terms of Use

The terms governing your access to NextBrand, our public directory catalog, and our manual directory submission services.

Last updated: November 1, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing the NextBrand website (nextbrand.live), browsing our directory catalog, or submitting your product information through our guest checkout process, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use and our accompanying Privacy Policy and Refund Policy. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, you must not use our service.

2. Description of Service

NextBrand provides a human-powered marketing distribution service designed for software makers, founders, and indie developers. When you purchase a distribution plan (Starter, Growth, or Reach):

  • Our team reviews your product details, positioning, and intended audience.
  • We match your product against our database of curated directories and tech launch hubs.
  • We draft customized submission content adhering to each target directory's specific rules.
  • Our specialists manually submit your product to the target number of directories.
  • We compile and deliver a detailed evidence report featuring live links to every submission.

3. Guaranteed Delivery Timeframe & 100% Refund

We commit to completing all submissions and delivering your final evidence report within the stipulated timeframe for your purchased plan:

  • Starter Plan (30 submissions): 7 business days from detail confirmation.
  • Growth Plan (60 submissions): 10 business days from detail confirmation.
  • Reach Plan (100 submissions): 14 business days from detail confirmation.

On-Time Delivery Guarantee: As detailed in our Refund Policy, if we fail to deliver your completed submission report within the applicable delivery timeframe, you are entitled to an immediate 100% full refund.

4. Customer Responsibilities & Content Standards

When providing product information through our guest checkout, you represent and warrant that:

  • You own or are authorized to submit the product, brand assets, and URLs provided.
  • The submitted website URL points to a live, functional, public HTTP(S) destination.
  • Your product does not promote malware, phishing, fraudulent schemes, hate speech, adult content, gambling, or illegal activities.
  • All information provided in your submission is accurate and not intentionally deceptive.

NextBrand reserves the right to decline submission campaigns for products that violate these standards. If a campaign is declined before work commences, a full refund will be issued.

5. Nature of Manual Submissions & Disclaimers

You understand and acknowledge that NextBrand is a manual submission service, not a directory owner or operator. Therefore:

  • Editorial Discretion: Third-party directory editors retain sole editorial discretion regarding whether to publish, reject, feature, or remove any submitted listing. Submission constitutes an application for listing, not guaranteed placement.
  • Third-Party Fees: Standard directory free-tier submission paths are used where available. Any optional expedited listing fees, premium directory charges, or sponsorship costs levied by third-party platforms are not included and remain the sole responsibility of the customer.
  • No Guaranteed Metrics: Traffic estimates, domain ratings (DR), and visit numbers displayed in our research catalog are derived from historical third-party snapshots (e.g., Similarweb, Ahrefs). NextBrand makes no guarantees regarding specific website traffic, search rankings, backlinks, or sales resulting from submissions.

6. Payment Processing & Guest Access

NextBrand does not require user accounts or store customer passwords. Access to your purchase status and receipts is governed through cryptographically signed, expiring guest session tokens and email verification. All credit card and international payment transactions are securely processed by our authorized payment partner, Dodo Payments.

7. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, NextBrand, its founders, and contractors shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, punitive, or consequential damages arising from the use of our service, delays in third-party indexing, or changes made by directory webmasters. In any case, our total aggregate liability is strictly limited to the amount paid by you for the specific distribution campaign in dispute.

8. Modifications to Terms

We may update these Terms of Use periodically to reflect changes in our service offerings or legal obligations. Any changes take effect immediately upon posting to this URL.
