A two-minute form, then an email.
The fine print, up front
- Credit pack purchases don't count; only subscription payments do.
- Your own subscription and second accounts you open don't count.
- If a payment is refunded or disputed, its commission is taken back.
- You're paid on paid invoices, never per click or sign-up.

FAQ
What partners ask
What exactly is commission calculated on?
40% of what the seller pays for their subscription, after tax. It covers every renewal and plan upgrade for 12 months from their first payment. Credit packs aren't included.
What if a seller clicks my link and subscribes a few days later?
If they start their first subscription within 30 days of clicking, they're linked to you. If they click another partner's link in that time, the most recent link counts; if they enter a partner code at checkout, that code comes first. After the first payment the link is locked and never changes.
Can I give my audience a discount code?
Yes. Once you're accepted we set up a code for you. A seller who enters it at checkout gets the discount and is linked to you, whichever link they came from. Your link with the code applies it for them.
How and when do I get paid?
On the 5th of each month we send the earnings that have cleared the 30-day refund window. Amounts are calculated in USD and sent to your bank account in your currency via Wise. There's no minimum, and every payout comes with an itemized breakdown.
What happens if a seller gets a refund?
That payment's commission is taken back in proportion. If it hasn't been paid yet, the amount drops; if it has, it's deducted from your next payout. You're never asked to pay anything back.
Where do I track my earnings?
Your partner dashboard shows your link and code, clicks, linked accounts, paying customers, your next payout and past payouts. Customer emails are masked for privacy.
Does my own subscription earn commission?
No. Your own account and any other accounts you open don't count, and doing so can end the partnership.
Is there an agreement?
Yes. When we accept your application we send a short agreement with the full terms, and ask then for the tax details we need for payouts.
