Commission Structure
Earn 20% ONE-TIME Commission on First Subscription:
Important: ONE-TIME Commission PolicyYou earn commission ONLY ONCE when a user signs up through your referral link and purchases their FIRST subscription.
- ✓ First Subscription: You earn 20% commission
- ✗ Renewals/Future Subscriptions: No additional commission
This is a one-time commission per user model, not a recurring commission program.
- Monthly Plans: You earn 20% commission ONE TIME on the first monthly subscription. For example, if a user subscribes to a $49/month plan, you earn $9.80 one-time payment.
- Yearly Plans: You earn 20% commission ONE TIME calculated on monthly price. For a $588/year plan (avg $49/month), you earn $9.80 (20% of $49) paid once.
- One-Time Per User: Each referred user generates commission only on their initial/first subscription purchase. Renewals or plan changes do not generate additional commission.
- Unlimited Referrals: There is no limit to how many users you can refer. The more users you refer, the more you earn!
Commission Examples:
- Refer 10 users on $49/month plan = $98 one-time (10 × $9.80)
- Refer 20 users on $99/month plan = $396 one-time (20 × $19.80)
- Refer 50 users on $588/year plan (avg $49/month) = $490 one-time (50 × $9.80)
Note: All commissions are paid ONE TIME per user on their first subscription only, regardless of plan type (monthly or yearly).
30-Day Commission Hold Policy
Important: All commissions are subject to a 30-day hold period from the date of purchase. This policy is designed to protect against refunds and subscription cancellations.
- Pending Status: When a user purchases through your referral link, the commission is marked as "Pending" for 30 days.
- Available Status: After 30 days, if the subscription remains active and no refund was requested, the commission becomes "Available" for payout.
- Cancellation Protection: If a referred user cancels their subscription or requests a refund within 30 days, the commission will be cancelled and removed from your account.
- Tracking: You can view the status and remaining days for each commission in your Commission History page.
