Affiliate Program

Refer people to Apptonomy and earn a share of what they pay us — every month, for up to a year per customer. Apptonomy handles the tracking and the payments. This page explains how to join, how referrals are credited, and how payouts work.

The economics are recurring, not one-off. You earn 30% of what a customer you referred actually pays, for as long as they keep paying inside the earning window. Refer customers who stick around and the same referral pays you month after month.

  1. Sign up at apptonomy.ai/affiliates/signup. Fill in your details and agree to the program terms.
  2. Confirm your email. Click the confirmation link Apptonomy emails you. Your application stays pending until you do.
  3. Get approved. Each application is reviewed manually, usually within a business day or two. On approval, Apptonomy emails you your unique referral link — and a coupon code, if one has been set up for you.
  4. Log in at apptonomy.ai/affiliates/login. Sign-in is passwordless: enter your email and Apptonomy sends a one-time link that logs you straight in. There’s no password to set or remember.
  5. Set up payouts. In your dashboard, complete the short Stripe payout onboarding before your first payout (details below).
  6. Start sharing your referral link or coupon code.

Your referral link carries a unique token as a ?via= parameter — for example https://apptonomy.ai/?via=yourtoken. When someone clicks it, Apptonomy stores a first-party record in their browser that attributes them to you for 60 days (the attribution window).

Attribution is first-touch: if a visitor was already referred by another affiliate within their window, that earlier affiliate keeps the credit even if the visitor later clicks your link. Referrals only count when the tracking records them, so ad blockers, cleared cookies, or a visitor declining tracking can occasionally mean a referral doesn’t register.

If you were issued a coupon code, share it alongside or instead of your link. It applies a discount for your referral at checkout and credits the referral to you at the same time.

  • Rate. 30% of the amounts a referred customer actually pays on qualifying subscription invoices — plan, add-ons, and upgrades included. It’s calculated on the amount paid after any discount and before tax.
  • Duration. Up to 12 months from that customer’s first paid invoice. As long as they keep paying in that window, you keep earning each month.
  • What doesn’t earn. Free trials, $0 invoices, taxes, and any amount later refunded, charged back, or disputed. You can’t refer yourself or accounts affiliated with you.
  • Reversals. If an invoice that earned you a commission is later refunded or charged back, that commission is reversed. Before payout it reduces your balance; after payout it’s netted against future earnings.

Payouts run through Stripe, roughly once a month. Two conditions gate a payout:

  • A 30-day hold. Each commission is held for 30 days after it accrues before it becomes payable, to cover the refund window. Your first commission is additionally held for a quick manual review.
  • A $50 minimum. A payout is sent only once your available balance reaches $50. A smaller balance rolls over to the next cycle.

Before your first payout, complete Stripe’s onboarding from your dashboard. It collects your identity, bank details, and the tax form Stripe requires — a W-9 if you’re in the US, or a W-8 if you’re not. Payouts are made in US dollars; Stripe converts at payout time where the underlying invoice was in another currency.

Promote honestly and follow the terms you agreed to at signup: no spam, no bidding on Apptonomy’s brand name in paid search, no misleading claims, and disclose that you’re an affiliate wherever you share your link — it’s an FTC requirement. The full program terms shown at signup are the source of truth.
