Theme Marketplace Terms

Additional rules for buying and publishing profile themes on the LinkStacked marketplace.

Last updated: June 6, 2026Effective: June 6, 2026Operator: Devpitch UG (haftungsbeschränkt)
01

What is a theme?

A "theme" on LinkStacked is a curated visual configuration package — including colour tokens, typography settings, background assets, layout variants, and optional custom CSS — that can be applied to a creator's public profile. Themes are delivered as structured data files (JSON and/or asset archives).

Themes are published on the LinkStacked marketplace either by the LinkStacked team ("Official Themes") or by qualified creator-publishers ("Community Themes").

02

Buyer licence

When you purchase a theme from the marketplace, you receive a:

  • Non-exclusive, non-transferable, personal licence to apply the theme to your own LinkStacked profile(s)
  • Right to use the theme for as long as your LinkStacked account is active
  • Right to minor personal customisations (colours, font overrides) via the theme editor

You may not:

  • Resell, redistribute, sublicence, or transfer the theme to another person or entity
  • Share your purchased theme package with other LinkStacked accounts (each account must purchase separately)
  • Claim authorship of a purchased theme or market it as your own original work
  • Use theme assets (custom illustrations, photography, brand elements) outside of your LinkStacked profile without the publisher's explicit permission
  • Reverse-engineer a theme to recreate and republish it on the marketplace
03

Publisher terms

To publish a Community Theme on the LinkStacked marketplace, you must:

  • Be an active LinkStacked creator with a connected Stripe account
  • Submit your theme through the marketplace submission form for quality review
  • Confirm that all assets (fonts, icons, photography) are licensed for commercial use and distribution
  • Provide accurate screenshots or demos that genuinely represent the theme's appearance
  • Maintain compatibility with the current LinkStacked theme specification (documented in the developer docs)
  • Update your theme within 30 days if a LinkStacked platform update breaks compatibility

Publisher revenue share

Publishers receive a revenue share on each theme sale, subject to platform commission (same rates as digital products — see Creator & Seller Terms).

Quality and removal

LinkStacked reserves the right to remove a Community Theme from the marketplace at any time if it fails to meet quality standards, contains malicious code, infringes intellectual property, or receives sustained negative buyer feedback. In such cases, buyers who purchased the affected theme will be notified and may be eligible for a credit.

04

Quality standards

  • All code in the theme package must be clean and human-readable (no obfuscated or minified files without source)
  • No tracking scripts, external resource loads, or phone-home calls embedded in the theme
  • Compatible with the latest version of the LinkStacked theme engine (version noted in submission)
  • Screenshot assets must represent the actual theme — AI-upscaled or fake preview images are prohibited
  • Typography must use fonts that are either Google Fonts, system fonts, or commercially licenced fonts for redistribution
05

Theme disputes

For buyers

If your purchased theme is broken, contact the publisher first via the marketplace listing page. If the publisher does not respond or provide a working fix within 72 hours, contact us at legal@linkstacked.com with your order ID. We will investigate and may issue a refund if the issue is verified.

For publishers

If a buyer claims a refund without a valid reason (e.g. buyer's remorse after downloading a working theme), you may dispute the refund request by emailing legal@linkstacked.com within 5 business days with your response. We will adjudicate in good faith based on the evidence provided.

Copyright complaints

If you believe a Community Theme infringes your intellectual property, submit a report under our Copyright, IP & DMCA Policy.
