Coach Agreement
Effective: [EFFECTIVE DATE]
Version 1.0
This agreement is between you and [COMPANY LEGAL NAME] (company number [COMPANY NUMBER], registered office [REGISTERED ADDRESS]). It covers how you work with MyLoLCoach as a coach. You are an independent subcontractor, not an employee. You set your own rate and hours. We sell your sessions and handle payment, and you keep 80% of what the student pays. It sits alongside our Terms of Service, which you also accept.
1. Who you are
You are an independent subcontractor. You are not our employee or worker, and nothing here creates a partnership or agency. You set your own rate and hours. You can work elsewhere, and we ask for no exclusivity. You are responsible for your own tax, insurance and any local licences.
You must be 18 or over. We confirm this at onboarding through your identity details.
2. Application, audition and approval
You apply through the site. If we shortlist you, we invite you to a teaching audition. The audition is recorded with your consent so that staff can assess it and verify your rank. You can decline recording, but then we may not be able to continue your application. We delete audition recordings 12 months after our decision.
We approve coaches at our discretion and tell you the reason if we say no. Your profile goes live only when you have accepted this agreement, uploaded a photo, had your rank verified, set up your payout method and given your tax and identity details.
3. What you deliver
You deliver coaching sessions that students book with you. A session can include live coaching, VOD review, draft and champion pool work, and follow-up. Voice happens on Discord.
Turn up on time and prepared. Mark each session complete when it ends. You can reschedule free with at least 12 hours' notice. If you cancel with under 12 hours' notice, it affects your standing. A no-show means the student can take a refund, or a rebooking plus a free hour.
Coaching results are never guaranteed. Don't promise a rank or outcome to any student.
4. Free reviews and Instant Session
Free reviews are opt-in. You choose whether to offer them. They last 15 minutes and are unpaid. They can't produce a public review.
You choose whether to take Instant Session requests. Prices for Instant Session are set by us by rank tier. The first eligible coach to accept takes the whole order. You can pass on any request with no penalty.
5. Your rate
You set one hourly rate, between $10 and $200 USD. A rate change applies to new sales only. Hours already sold keep the price they were sold at. Students get 10% off two hours and 15% off three or more. Your earnings are calculated on what the student actually paid.
6. Commission and payment
You keep 80% of the price the student actually paid. We keep 20%. Promo codes are funded by us, so they don't reduce your share. Your earnings on a sale are fixed when the student buys. If we change the commission, it affects new sales only, and we give you 30 days' notice.
We pay out every Friday for sessions whose 24-hour claim window has closed. If a session is refunded, you aren't paid for it. If a student takes a refund that charges a used hour at the full rate, your earnings on that session stay as fixed at purchase and we absorb the difference.
Coaches in the UK, EEA, US, Canada and Switzerland are paid through Stripe Connect. Coaches elsewhere are paid by another method, such as a Wise transfer. You must accept Stripe's terms if you use Stripe Connect. If a chargeback arrives after we've paid you, we absorb it unless you didn't turn up or committed fraud.
7. Tax
You are responsible for your own tax. At onboarding you give us tax and identity details. We keep them encrypted and log every access to them. Under the UK digital platform reporting rules we report seller income to HMRC each January, and may report to other tax authorities where the law requires. If you don't give us the details we ask for, we can pause your payouts.
8. Conduct
Treat students with respect. Don't harass or discriminate. Follow our Community Rules and Review Policy. Follow Riot Games' own rules. We don't monitor games and can't enforce Riot's rules, and any penalty Riot imposes is your responsibility.
Selling, advertising or arranging boosting or account sharing is forbidden. Never ask anyone for a password.
9. Off-platform rule
Don't ask students for payment outside MyLoLCoach. A session paid for off the platform has no refund route, no dispute process and no record, so the student loses every protection they came here for. A keyword check flags messages that look like off-platform payment talk. A person reviews every flag, and no one is punished automatically. A first offence gets a formal warning. A second means removal.
10. Rank honesty and rating
Your rank must be genuine. Misrepresenting it leads to removal. If your rating falls below 4.5, a person reviews your account. It does not lead to automatic removal.
11. Confidentiality and data protection
You handle student data only to deliver coaching to that student. Don't share it, use it for anything else, or contact students about other services. Delete your copies, including notes, screenshots and replays, when you no longer need them. Tell us at [email protected] straight away if you lose any student data. Each of us is responsible for our own use of data under data protection law. Our Privacy Policy explains what we do.
Chat is available only after a booking. Staff read only flagged or reported conversations, and every read is logged.
12. Your profile content
You own the content you add to your profile, such as your photo, text and champion pool. You give us a non-exclusive, worldwide licence to display it on MyLoLCoach and in related promotion of MyLoLCoach for as long as your profile is live, and for a short period afterwards to complete the deletion of it. You promise you have the right to use the content.
13. Suspension and termination
We can suspend you if there is a serious or repeated breach, a safety concern, or a report that needs investigation. We give you a written statement of reasons, and you can appeal by replying to it. A person makes the decision. We don't make decisions with legal effects by automated means alone.
Either of us can end this agreement. You give us 14 days' notice. We give you 30 days' notice, or less if there is a serious breach or safety concern. If you leave or are suspended, your students choose whether to move their hours to another coach or take a cash refund. You must tell students about sessions you can no longer deliver.
After termination you still receive your earnings for sessions you delivered, paid on the normal Friday schedule once the claim window closes.
14. Changes
We give you 30 days' notice of any change to this agreement or to the commission. If you disagree, you can end the agreement during the notice period. Changes to the commission affect new sales only.
15. Liability
Nothing here limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else the law doesn't let us limit. Otherwise, neither of us is liable to the other for indirect or unforeseeable losses, and our total liability to you is limited to the earnings you were owed in the 12 months before the claim. We aren't responsible for what happens inside games.
16. Law
This agreement is governed by the law of England and Wales. The courts of England and Wales have jurisdiction, except that if you are a consumer, you keep any mandatory rights and court access in the country where you live.
