- How much can I earn as a Simple Commenter affiliate?
- You earn 30% of every payment your referrals make during their first 12 months. That includes renewals: if someone you referred pays monthly, you get 30% of each of those payments for a full year.
- How do I join the affiliate program?
- Create a free Simple Commenter account, open the Affiliate page in your dashboard, and click Activate. You get your referral link instantly, there is no application or approval wait.
- How long does the referral cookie last?
- 60 days. If someone clicks your link and signs up within 60 days, they count as your referral. The last affiliate link clicked wins.
- How and when do I get paid?
- Payouts run automatically once a month through Stripe, straight to your bank account. Commissions clear a 30-day hold first (to cover refunds), and payouts start at a $25 minimum. Balances below the minimum roll over to the next month.
- Do I need to be a paying customer to be an affiliate?
- No. Any Simple Commenter account can activate the affiliate program, including free accounts. You just need a free account to get your link and track your earnings.
- What happens if a referral gets a refund?
- Refunded payments are removed from your balance. If the commission was already paid out, it is deducted from your next payout.
- Can I refer myself or use my own link?
- No. Self-referrals, buying through your own link, and other forms of gaming the program are against the terms and void the commissions involved.
Terms
Affiliate program terms
- 01Commission is 30% of net payments (excluding taxes and refunds) made by a referred account during its first 12 months, counted from the account's signup date.
- 02Referrals are attributed with a 60-day cookie. The last affiliate link clicked before signup wins.
- 03Commissions clear a 30-day hold before payout. Refunded payments are clawed back; if already paid out, they are deducted from your next payout.
- 04Payouts run automatically once a month via Stripe with a $25 minimum. A valid Stripe payout account is required to receive funds; balances keep accruing until one is connected.
- 05Commissions apply to Stripe-billed subscriptions. Purchases billed through the Shopify App Store are currently excluded.
- 06Not allowed: referring yourself or purchasing through your own link, bidding on Simple Commenter brand keywords, coupon or deal-site spam, cookie stuffing, and misleading claims about the product.
- 07Fraud or violations of these terms void unpaid commissions and may end participation. Simple Commenter may modify or terminate the program with reasonable notice.
