Revenue share agreements are common in digital businesses, referral networks, licensing, and alternative finance. Unlike equity, they do not dilute ownership but create an ongoing payment obligation tied to income. Careful definition of "revenue" is critical.

• Define "gross revenue" vs "net revenue" precisely — different outcomes
• Specify reporting periods and audit rights
• Consider minimum payment thresholds
• Include termination and step-down clauses
• Revenue share payments may be VATable — seek accountancy advice
