OkayCMS Marketplace Rules for Developers define the requirements for publishing and maintaining products on the official OkayCMS Marketplace.
The document regulates the interaction between partners and the administration, the process of moderation, updates, financial settlements, and the responsibilities of both parties.
Compliance with these rules is a mandatory condition for participation in the partner program and ensures stable cooperation between the developer and the platform.
1. General Provisions
1.1. Participation in the marketplace is available only to registered OkayCMS partners.
1.2. All products must be original and must not violate the intellectual property rights of third parties.
1.3. The administration reserves the right to update these rules, modify the reward structure, and adjust product quality requirements.
1.4. Products that violate laws, ethical standards, or platform policies may be removed without prior notice.
2. Product Requirements
2.1. All products must be fully compatible with the current version of OkayCMS.
2.2. The use of encrypted or malicious code, third-party license restrictions, or hidden functions is strictly prohibited.
2.3. The following materials are required for publication:
-
product name;
-
short and full description;
-
at least 3 interface screenshots or a video;
-
support terms (email only / email and phone / Telegram);
-
demo or link to a test page (if available);
-
a brief technical guide.
2.4. Products containing plagiarism, compiled third-party code, or low-quality design will not be approved for publication.
3. Repository and Updates
3.1. All products must be stored in the partner’s Bitbucket Git repository.
3.2. Access is provided via an SSH key, which is generated and issued by the OkayCMS administration.
3.3. Each release must have a version tag (for example, v1.0.0 or v1.1.2).
3.4. The developer must maintain compatibility of the product with the current version of the CMS.
3.5. After the release of a new version of OkayCMS, the product must be updated within 30 days.
3.6. If a product is not updated for more than 90 days, it may be removed from sale.
4. Moderation
4.1. Every new product undergoes technical, visual, and content review.
4.2. If issues are found, the developer receives a moderator’s comment with recommendations for correction.
4.3. The review period is 1–3 business days, depending on the moderation queue.
4.4. If the product does not meet the requirements, it may be rejected with a specified reason.
4.5. When resubmitting, the product must take into account previous moderator feedback.
5. User Support
5.1. The developer is required to provide technical support to customers within 48 hours of receiving a request.
5.2. Ignoring user requests or multiple complaints may result in a lower product or partner rating.
5.3. The developer bears full responsibility for the functionality, compatibility, and updates of their products.
5.4. In the case of persistent negative feedback, OkayCMS reserves the right to remove the product from sale.
6. Financial Terms
6.1. Payments are made on the 2nd day of each calendar month, except on weekends or public holidays.
6.2. Settlements are made monthly in Ukrainian hryvnias to the partner’s business account (FOP).
6.3. The partner’s reward (65%) already includes the WayForPay payment system fee (2%),
which is deducted from each sales transaction.
6.4. The OkayCMS share (35%) covers operational costs of maintaining and developing the platform:
taxes, banking fees, hosting, moderation, technical support, and marketing.
6.5. OkayCMS is not responsible for payment delays caused by banking or technical issues
but undertakes to complete all settlements once the services are restored.
6.6. The administration may suspend payments in the following cases:
-
violation of marketplace rules;
-
provision of false information;
-
recurring user complaints or suspicious transactions.
6.7. After each sale of a partner’s module or template, the developer receives an automatic email notification containing details of the purchase, order, and credited amount.
7. Partner Inactivity
7.1. If, after a new version of OkayCMS is released, a client who previously purchased the module requests an update to the latest version or if the module operates incorrectly on the updated version, the product may be temporarily removed from sale. The partner has 30 days to perform the update.
7.2. During the initial removal period, the product is not sold and is not displayed in the catalog, so no new payouts are generated. Previously purchased copies remain available to customers.
7.3. If after 30 days the partner does not perform the update or does not respond, OkayCMS has the right to update the product independently to ensure proper functionality and preserve the marketplace’s reputation. The cost of such an update is covered by the revenue from subsequent sales of this product after it is republished.
7.4. Once the update is completed — either by the partner or by the OkayCMS team — the product is published again in the catalog, and the partner receives payouts as usual according to the terms of the partner program.
7.5. If the partner does not respond for more than 90 days after the product has been updated and republished according to point 7.3, the module is again removed from sale. During this period, no sales take place, and payouts or accruals are not made or accumulated. Potential non-accrued amounts remain within the marketplace’s operational flow and are used for its maintenance and development. After resuming cooperation and updating the payout details, the partner again receives payouts for new sales according to the partner program rules.
8. Rights of OkayCMS
8.1. OkayCMS reserves the right to update the cooperation rules without prior notice.
8.2. Optimize the product’s description, images, and keywords for SEO or marketing purposes.
8.3. Temporarily hide or remove a product if it violates platform policies or receives user complaints.
8.4. Use the product name, logo, and screenshots for marketplace promotion.
8.5. Conduct code audits in cases of suspected security violations or plagiarism.
