Perks Terms & Conditions

The terms governing how VestedVC portfolio founders may claim and use partner perks listed on our Perks page.

Last updated: March 1, 2026

In plain English

Perks are for active VestedVC portfolio companies only. They're provided by third parties (AWS, NVIDIA, HubSpot, etc.), whose own terms also apply. They're not transferable, have no cash value, and we can modify or discontinue them anytime.

1. Eligibility

Perks listed on the VestedVC Perks page are exclusively available to active portfolio companies of VestedVC. A company is considered an active portfolio company if VestedVC (or one of its affiliated funds) holds a current equity position acquired through a documented investment.

Eligibility is verified by VestedVC at the time of each perk claim. Companies that have undergone an exit, dissolution, or major restructuring may lose eligibility at VestedVC's discretion.

Individual employees of portfolio companies may claim perks on behalf of their company only with prior written authorization from a company officer.

2. How to claim perks

Eligible founders may claim perks through the VestedVC founder portal or by emailing [email protected] from their company domain.

Each perk has its own redemption flow — some require a unique code, others a partner introduction email from VestedVC. The specific process is described next to each offer on the Perks page.

Once a perk is claimed, the founder enters into a direct relationship with the perk provider (e.g., AWS, NVIDIA, HubSpot). VestedVC is not a party to that relationship.

3. Third-party provider terms

All perks are provided by third-party companies. Each provider's own terms of service, acceptable-use policies, and pricing changes apply to the use of their products.

VestedVC does not control, guarantee, or warrant the availability, quality, or pricing of any third-party perk. Providers may modify or discontinue perks at any time, with or without notice.

Founders are responsible for reviewing and accepting the third-party provider's terms before claiming any perk.

4. Restrictions

Perks are non-transferable. They may not be sold, traded, reassigned, or used for any company other than the eligible portfolio company.

Each portfolio company may claim each individual perk only once unless explicitly stated otherwise (for example, monthly cloud credits may renew).

Perks may not be combined with other discounts or promotional codes unless permitted by the provider.

Perks have no cash value and cannot be exchanged for monetary compensation.

5. Verification process

VestedVC reserves the right to verify the founder's identity, role at the company, and the company's portfolio status before approving any claim.

Acceptable verification may include: email confirmation from a registered company domain, founder LinkedIn profile, capitalization table confirmation, or board signature.

Verification typically completes within 48 business hours.

6. Misuse and termination

Attempted misuse — including reselling perks, claiming perks for ineligible companies, sharing redemption codes outside the company, or fraudulent representation — will result in immediate termination of perk access.

VestedVC may also notify the affected third-party provider, and any credits or benefits already issued may be revoked by the provider.

In serious cases of misuse, VestedVC reserves the right to disclose the incident to its limited partners and the broader founder community.

7. Modifications and discontinuation

VestedVC may add, remove, modify, or substitute perks at any time without prior notice.

The Perks page reflects currently available offers. Past offers shown elsewhere (newsletters, social posts) may no longer be available.

These Terms & Conditions may be updated periodically. Material changes will be communicated to active portfolio companies via email.

8. Limitation of liability

VestedVC provides perks as a courtesy to its portfolio. VestedVC makes no warranties — express or implied — regarding any third-party product, service, or perk.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, VestedVC shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from a founder's use of, or inability to use, any perk.

Founders' sole recourse for issues with a third-party perk is with the third-party provider directly.

9. Contact

Questions about these terms, eligibility, or specific perks should be directed to [email protected].

We aim to respond to perk-related inquiries within 2 business days.

This is not the provider's terms

These terms govern VestedVC's relationship with portfolio founders regarding perks. Each provider (AWS, NVIDIA, HubSpot, etc.) has its own separate terms that apply to your use of their products. Always review the provider's terms before redeeming a perk.
