Any plan works. Even the Free plan. You don't have to be a paying customer to be a partner.
In Settings → Partner. One toggle.
~5 minutes for identity verification (required by EU regulation for payouts). No upfront cost.
Pick custom labels: TOM-LINKEDIN, TOM-NEWSLETTER, TOM-PODCAST. Share via URL ?ref=TOM-LINKEDIN. Track which channel converts.
Every signup is tracked. Commission accrues immediately and becomes withdrawable 14 days after the customer's invoice. You then request the payout yourself from your Partner dashboard, once your withdrawable balance reaches €50. It is not sent automatically.
Not "12 months only" like most competitors. As long as your customer stays subscribed, you keep earning.
Direct to your bank: no PayPal middleman, no bridge currencies, no hidden fees.
Create one code per channel. See which posts, newsletters or threads actually convert, and double-down on what works.
A commission is held for 14 days after the customer's invoice. If the payment is refunded or reversed during that window, the commission is voided. After day 14 it becomes withdrawable, but a chargeback can still arrive months later, and if it does we reverse the payout. That is the honest version: the hold is a delay, not a deadline after which the money is untouchable. Note that a partial refund voids the whole commission: we cannot yet reduce it proportionally.
Sign up for any plan (Free works). In Settings → Partner, enable the program and complete the Stripe Connect onboarding (KYC). You'll get one or more referral codes to share. Total time: about 10 minutes.
Yes. Each partner can create as many codes as they want with custom labels such as TOM-LINKEDIN, TOM-NEWSLETTER, TOM-YOUTUBE. Codes are globally unique. Track conversions per code in your dashboard so you know which channel performs.
After a 14-day hold each commission becomes withdrawable. Payouts are not automatic: you request one from your Partner dashboard once your withdrawable balance reaches €50, and it goes via Stripe Connect to the account you onboarded.
Within 14 days of the invoice the pending commission is voided. If it had already been paid out, we reverse the transfer from your Stripe Connect balance. This can happen after day 14 too (a chargeback typically arrives much later), so the hold is a delay before payout, not a point after which the commission can no longer be reversed.
No. Self-referrals are excluded from commissions. We're rolling out automated detection (email-domain + IP overlap). For now it's manual review at payout time.
Stripe Connect collects your identity and payout details during onboarding. Before your first payout we also need your legal name, country of establishment, tax status and, if you are a business, your VAT identification number, which we validate against the EU VIES system. Commission is settled by self-billing credit note (Gutschrift); the intra-EU reverse-charge treatment follows from the details you give us, and is not something Stripe decides for you.
For every month a customer you referred stays subscribed, you earn the commission % on that month's invoice. There's no cutoff at 12 months, no decay over time, no "terms expire after one year" trap. Customer stays 5 years? You earn for 5 years.
Yes. That's exactly what L2, L3 and L4 are for. You earn 5% on customers your direct referrals bring in, 2.5% one level deeper, and 1.25% one more level deeper. 10 + 5 + 2.5 + 1.25 = 18.75% total network rate.
Yes: €50. Commission accrues with no minimum, but a withdrawal has to reach €50 before you can request it. If we ever discontinue the program, that minimum is waived for the final payout.
In your Partner dashboard inside the app: pending vs cleared commissions, payout history, and your network four levels deep. The network view is anonymised. You see how many partners sit at each level and what each position earns you, never who they are.
