How much do typical affiliates earn?

Wide range. The median active affiliate earns $80 to $250 per month. Top ten affiliates earn $3,000 to $12,000 per month, typically YouTube reviewers and newsletter operators with audiences of 20K plus. Top one affiliate hit $28K in a single month during a Q4 retail cycle. Your mileage depends entirely on the audience you bring, which is how it should work.

Can I negotiate a higher commission rate?

No. The 20 percent rate is flat for every affiliate at every volume level. We do not make exceptions because exceptions would be unfair to the affiliates we did not grant them to. If the flat rate does not work for your business model, the rate will not work for your business model. That is fine, we are not for everyone.

Do you pay for negative reviews?

Yes, same rate. We do not adjust commission based on editorial position. If your YouTube review ranks us sixth place on a "best of" list and a viewer still clicks through and buys, you earn 20 percent commission. This is the policy specifically because we want affiliate editorial to be honest, and honest sometimes means not ranking us first.

How long does it take to get approved?

Usually inside 48 hours. We approve most applications automatically if the site or channel is active and not obvious spam. Edge cases get manual review and can take up to a week. Applications that look like PBNs, link farms, or obvious blackhat SEO get declined.

Can I use Google Ads on affiliate keywords?

You can bid on your own brand keywords, but not on Twitterz branded keywords. Bidding on "twitterz" or variations would cannibalize our own direct traffic and we claw back commissions that trace to brand keyword bidding. Bidding on category keywords like "buy twitter followers" is allowed and encouraged.

Do you have a minimum payout?

$50. Balances under $50 roll to the next month. We do not pay dust transfers because the on chain fees would eat into your commission. Most active affiliates clear the $50 threshold every month without issue.

What if my audience is small but quality?

The program works for any audience size. A newsletter with 500 subscribers where every reader buys something converts better than a general interest blog with 50,000 readers. We pay on conversions, not on reach. If your audience converts, the commissions compound fast.

Why flat rate

Predictable beats
negotiated.

We pay every affiliate the same 20 percent rate regardless of size, editorial position, or negotiation pressure. The alternative, which most category competitors run, is a tiered program where bigger affiliates negotiate higher rates and small affiliates take whatever the default is. We think that is backward. Small affiliates work harder per dollar of commission than large affiliates and should not be penalized for not having leverage.

The flat rate also keeps editorial honest. If we paid bigger commissions to affiliates who ranked us first on their comparison lists, we would have a financial interest in them ranking us first, which would skew their editorial toward favorable coverage. At 20 percent flat, a YouTube reviewer who ranks us sixth earns the same commission on conversions as a reviewer who ranks us first. The economic pressure on editorial is zero.

The mechanics below are all the program. No tier unlocks, no advanced metrics, no private Slack channels for top affiliates. You sign up, you refer, you get paid. Same rules for everyone.

Six rules, all of them

The whole program in six boxes.

Rate

20 percent, not negotiable.

Every affiliate gets the same 20 percent recurring commission on every order from referred customers. We do not negotiate higher rates for bigger affiliates because that would be unfair to smaller affiliates who promote us harder for less reach. Twenty percent flat, permanently, across the board.

Recurring

Lifetime of the customer.

The commission is recurring for the lifetime of the referred customer is orders, not just the first purchase. Most category affiliates cap commissions at first order only. We pay every single order from day one until the customer stops ordering. The compounding matters.

Crypto only

Paid in USDT or USDC, monthly.

Payouts happen on the first of each month for the prior month in USDT or USDC at your choice, to whichever wallet you specify. Minimum payout threshold is $50 to avoid dust transfers. Balances under $50 roll to the following month. No cash, no bank transfers, no PayPal.

Attribution

90 day cookie, first click wins.

Affiliate attribution runs on a 90 day cookie window with first click attribution. If a customer clicks your affiliate link, does not buy, then clicks a different affiliate link, the commission goes to you as the first click. 90 days covers most sales cycles comfortably.

Transparency

Live dashboard, all numbers.

Your affiliate dashboard shows every click, every conversion, every commission event, and every payout in real time. No delayed reporting, no aggregate only views, no hidden chargebacks. We do not claw back commissions for any reason because we only pay on shipped orders.

No editorial

Say what you want.

We do not control affiliate editorial. Positive reviews get paid the same commission as negative reviews. If you rank us number seven on your comparison, we still pay commission when you refer someone. We do not adjust rates based on coverage quality. Ever.
