How ImpactTune manufacturer licensing works
A plain-language overview of manufacturer enrollment, verified product data, paid platform services, evaluation work, Brand Fit Finder access, and the optional ImpactTuned Core technology license.
Informational only · No online agreement, technology license, or royalty obligation is created by this page.
ImpactTune LLC is intended to be the contracting licensor. Before a Core License is executed, counsel should confirm that the LLC owns the applicable rights or holds an exclusive written license with sufficient sublicensing authority, and should complete the final assignments, patent schedule, inventorship review, insurance, privacy, tax, and dispute terms.
One master agreement. Separate Order Forms for the programs a manufacturer actually buys.
Paid platform services
Starter, Growth, Pro, Enterprise, analytics, Community, and the Brand Paddle Selector activate only through a separate paid Order Form.
Evaluation program
Payment buys testing and analysis—not a favorable result. Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum status must be earned under the applicable standard.
ImpactTuned Core license
A separate product schedule identifies the exact licensed model, construction, factory, territory, development work, quality requirements, and per-unit royalty.
Until final assignments are completed, ImpactTune LLC may contract only for technology it owns or exclusively controls through a written, worldwide, sublicensable license from the current owner. Later assignment to the LLC should not interrupt manufacturer rights already granted under a valid Core License Order Form.
Core royalty proposal
Fixed fee per licensed paddle
The technology fee is not based on MSRP, Net Sales, discount codes, wholesale price, retailer margin, sponsorship expense, or advertising. A licensed core in a $110 paddle and a $330 paddle pays the same fee.
Standard manufacturer$7.50per royalty-bearing paddle
CRUSH founding core partner$5.00only while an active licensed core is sold
The license is tied to a specific SKU, thickness, shape, core, layup, frame, process, and factory.
Material changes require notice and may require new samples, testing, or a revised schedule.
SKU-level unit reports, payment, records retention, returns, replacements, samples, and audit rights.
Current labels are ImpactTune Program Status labels. Independent certification requires a separate future program.
Only the manufacturer’s products appear, with Powered by ImpactTune attribution and a separate neutral global recommender.
Small brands may receive a Brand Hub; dedicated communities depend on plan, audience, activity, and moderation readiness.
Review first. Approved documents and signatures later.
The public form records an authorized review request and explicit data permissions only. It does not accept a master agreement. Approved platform terms and any paid services are presented separately; every technology license uses a counsel-approved agreement and a counterparty-specific Order Form.
