Affiliate Program

Earn by referring new customers

Our Affiliate Program lets you earn commissions by introducing new customers to the platform.

When someone discovers the platform through your affiliate link, creates a new platform account and later becomes a paying customer, you earn 20% of the eligible subscription amount.

There is no need to manage payments, bank transfers or payout details with us directly. Affiliate payments are handled through Stripe Connect.

How it works

  • Earn 20% commission from customers you successfully refer to the platform.
  • Referral attribution is established when a new user creates their platform account.
  • Referral links remain eligible for attribution for 45 days.
  • Once attributed, that customer remains associated with your affiliate account.
  • Commissions remain pending for 30 days before becoming eligible for release.
  • Eligible commissions are released every Friday.
  • Payments are released directly to your Stripe Connected Account.
  • Track your affiliate resources, commissions and activity directly from your dashboard.

Your dashboard keeps a clear record of positive commissions, adjustments and released earnings.

Your affiliate links and brand assets

When you join the program, we create a unique affiliate code for your account.

Your affiliate dashboard gives you everything you need to start sharing the platform, including:

  • Your affiliate code.
  • Ready-to-use referral links for common destinations such as the homepage, pricing section and individual subscription plans.
  • Brand identity assets you can download and use when publishing or promoting the platform.

You can also add your affiliate code to supported platform links when creating your own referral URLs.

When someone who does not already have a platform account follows one of your affiliate links, your referral is temporarily associated with that visitor.

If they create a new platform account within the 45-day referral period, your affiliate attribution becomes permanently associated with that user.

Referral attribution

The Affiliate Program is designed to reward affiliates for acquiring new platform users.

We use first-touch affiliate attribution.

The first valid affiliate referral associated with a new visitor is retained during the 45-day referral period. If that visitor follows another affiliate link during the same period, the original affiliate attribution is not replaced.

When the visitor creates a new platform account, the attribution is permanently associated with that user.

  • Attribution applies only to people who do not already have a platform account.
  • The first valid affiliate referral receives the attribution.
  • Later affiliate links do not replace the original referral.
  • Existing platform users cannot later be attributed to an affiliate.
  • A platform user can be attributed to only one affiliate.
  • Affiliate commissions are not shared between multiple affiliates.
  • Once a user has been attributed, later direct visits, search engines, advertising, emails or other traffic sources do not remove or replace that attribution.
  • If the same attributed user later creates additional eligible tenants or subscriptions, the original affiliate attribution remains associated with that user.

The referral cookie is only used while the visitor is anonymous. Once the platform account is created, the permanent attribution stored with the user becomes the source of truth.

This allows affiliates to receive credit for genuinely introducing a new customer even if that customer subscribes later through a different visit or traffic source.

Commission validation period

New commissions remain pending for 30 days before they can be released.

This validation period allows us to account for cancellations and refunds before commission funds are released.

If the corresponding customer payment is refunded during this period, the pending commission is reversed and is not released.

The 30-day commission validation period is separate from the 45-day referral attribution period. The referral period determines whether a new user is attributed to an affiliate, while the validation period determines when an earned commission can be released.

Weekly commission releases

Once the 30-day validation period has passed, a pending commission becomes eligible for release.

We consolidate eligible commissions and release them every Friday.

The released amount is transferred to your Stripe Connected Account.

From that point, Stripe manages the balance and any subsequent payout from Stripe to your registered bank account.

Refunds after a commission has been released

Occasionally, a customer payment may be refunded, disputed or otherwise become ineligible after its affiliate commission has already been released.

In that case, the original released commission remains part of your activity history and a corresponding negative adjustment is added to your affiliate balance.

The adjustment is deducted from pending or future eligible commissions whenever possible.

If the available affiliate balance is not sufficient to cover the adjustment, additional recovery measures may be required.

This keeps released commission records intact while allowing later refunds, disputes or invalid transactions to be accounted for accurately.

Stripe onboarding

Affiliate payments are handled through Stripe Connect.

Before commissions can be released, you must complete Stripe's onboarding process and provide the information Stripe requires to create and operate your Connected Account.

Stripe handles identity verification, payout information and your Connected Account directly.

We do not collect or store your bank account details.

Your affiliate dashboard

Your affiliate dashboard is the central place for managing your participation in the program.

From the dashboard you can access:

  • Your affiliate code.
  • Ready-to-use referral links.
  • Links directly to common platform destinations and subscription plans.
  • Downloadable brand identity assets.
  • Pending commissions.
  • Eligible and released commissions.
  • Reversals and adjustments.
  • Your overall affiliate activity.
  • Stripe transfer references for released commissions.

Your activity history provides a clear record of commissions associated with customers you referred and their current status.

Activity may include pending commissions, released commissions, reversals and negative adjustments resulting from later refunds.

For released commissions, we also keep the Stripe transfer reference associated with the movement of funds to your Connected Account.

Taxes

Affiliate commissions are paid as gross affiliate earnings.

Each affiliate is responsible for understanding and managing the taxes, registrations, declarations or other obligations that may apply to their affiliate income.

Any tax or accounting obligations that apply specifically to us as the paying platform are managed separately and do not change how affiliate commissions are calculated inside the program.

Join the Affiliate Program

The Affiliate Program is managed from your platform profile, not from an individual tenant profile.

From the platform, click your avatar in the top-right corner and select My Profile. This opens your profile at the platform level, where you can apply to join the Affiliate Program and complete the Stripe onboarding process once your application has been approved.

If you are currently inside a tenant dashboard, selecting My Profile will open your profile for that tenant instead.

To return to the platform, click the 76strings logo, or open the top-right avatar menu and select 76strings. Then open My Profile from the platform.

Once your Affiliate Program account and Stripe onboarding are ready, your platform profile and affiliate dashboard will give you access to your affiliate code, referral links, brand assets, activity and commission information.
