AffiliateRail Partners
Earn 30% of every payment, for as long as they stay
We run our own affiliate program on AffiliateRail. Same tracking, same portal, same payouts your merchants would get. Send us a SaaS founder and you earn 30% of everything they ever pay us.
Your rate
30%
Of every payment, not only the first one. Recurring, for the life of the account.
On a Grow customer

$59 a month at 30% is $17.70 a month. A customer who stays a year pays you $212.40.
Taken out of it

Paid to your own PayPal or Wise. We do not hold it and we do not take a cut of it.
How it works
Four steps, and the third one is us doing the work
- Join
One form. You get a portal on our program with your link in it, in whichever of thirteen languages you read.
- Share the link
In a post, a newsletter, a video description, a client email. Anywhere a SaaS founder will see it.
- We track and count
Their trial, their first payment and every payment after it. You watch it happen in your portal.
- You get paid
Once you clear the payout threshold, on our schedule, to your own PayPal or Wise account.
Who this works for
People whose audience is SaaS founders and the people who work for them. Consultants and agencies who set up billing or growth for SaaS clients. Newsletter writers and YouTubers in the indie SaaS and bootstrapping world. Anyone already recommending tools to founders who are about to start an affiliate program.
It works badly for coupon sites and for anyone whose plan is to bid on our brand name. Both are in the terms, and both get declined.
Why we run it on our own product
Every affiliate tool tells you to run an affiliate program. Most of them do not run one themselves, or run it on someone else's software. Ours runs on AffiliateRail, in public, and it is the honest demo: whatever you experience as our affiliate is what your affiliates will experience as yours.
It is also how a merchant on the Launch or Grow plan earns from us. The "Powered by AffiliateRail" line at the bottom of your affiliate portal is your affiliate link. Someone who clicks it and becomes a customer earns you 30% for as long as they stay, which is more than the Launch plan costs.
The detail
- 30% recurring, for the life of the account. Not a first-month bounty.
- 60-day cookie, and the referral is also carried through the account they create, so a founder who takes two months to decide still counts as yours.
- Paid on cleared money. Commissions mature after the refund window, then join the next payout run.
- Refunds and cancellations correct themselves. If a merchant we both introduced refunds, the commission voids. You will see exactly why in your portal.
- Self-referrals do not count. Signing up through your own link is caught and voided.
