Invitation only. The SurfStats Studio Affiliate Program is not open to public applications. Selected partners receive a personal invitation by email.
SurfStats Studio Affiliate Program

Recommend real SurfStats workflows and earn on eligible subscriptions.

Approved affiliates can earn commission when referred users buy eligible SurfStats Studio subscription plans. Credit-pack and top-up purchases are deliberately non-commissionable.

Participation is invitation-only. Commission eligibility starts only after an invitation is accepted and applies to eligible, attributable subscription transactions.

How it works

From invitation to an eligible commission

A referral click alone is not a commission. Approval, attribution and an eligible paid subscription all matter.

1

Receive an invitation

SurfStats invites selected partners whose audience and promotion approach are a strong fit for the program.

2

Accept with the invited email

Sign in with the email address that received the invitation and accept it. Access is not available through open applications.

3

Choose the right proof

Use a relevant public example, feature viewModel, proof viewModel or workflow instead of sending every audience to a generic homepage.

4

Build your tracked link

Use the Affiliate Promo Kit to create a SurfStats referral link for the landing page that best matches your audience.

5

Disclose clearly

Tell your audience that the link is an affiliate link and that you may earn a commission from an eligible purchase.

6

Customer subscribes

Eligible monthly or yearly subscription purchases tied to an approved referral can generate affiliate commission.

7

Reconcile the sale

SurfStats uses tracked referral data together with FastSpring payment events to reconcile eligible paid subscriptions.

8

Commission is finalized

Refunds, reversals, chargebacks, fraud or ineligible transactions can reduce or cancel commission in line with the applicable program terms.

Who SurfStats may invite

Best for people who can teach or demonstrate a real workflow.

You run a creator community, course, membership, professional group, forum or audience with a genuine fit for SurfStats.

A strong program fit includes

How you will actually promote SurfStats

Affiliate toolkit

Promote a specific result, not a vague AI promise.

Use SurfStats’ public proof and approved promo tools to match the landing page to the audience you are speaking to.

Affiliate Promo Kit

Build targeted referral links and copy disclosure-ready promo text, banners and campaign ideas.

Examples

Use public, cloneable examples to show a concrete SurfStats workflow rather than relying on generic claims.

Proof Wall

Point audiences to reproducible product proof without invented testimonials or unsupported performance claims.

Ask SurfStats

Let a prospect describe what they want to create and receive the exact workflow and estimated credits.

Pricing

Send purchase-ready traffic to current plans, credits, yearly savings and plan limits.

Partner Hub

Required promotion policy

Organic promotion only unless SurfStats gives written authorization.

Strictly prohibited

Paid advertising in any form, including search ads, social ads, display ads, native ads and other performance media, unless SurfStats explicitly authorizes it in writing.

Also prohibited

Impersonating SurfStats, misleading brand use, unauthorized coupon/discount claims, fake scarcity, false testimonials, or unsupported earnings/performance claims.

Allowed

Organic tutorials, reviews, comparison content, newsletters, social posts, community recommendations, courses, demos and word-of-mouth referrals with a clear affiliate disclosure.

Invited participants must follow this policy. Material violations can result in removal from the program and loss of unpaid/ineligible commission subject to the applicable terms.
Attribution & payments

What determines whether a referral earns commission?

Approved affiliate/campaign
The referral must be associated with an approved commission-bearing affiliate or campaign structure.
Eligible subscription product
Monthly and yearly subscription plans can be commissionable. Credit packs/top-ups are 0%.
Successful payment reconciliation
SurfStats reconciles referral data with FastSpring payment events before treating a commission as eligible.
No disqualifying reversal
Refunds, chargebacks, fraud, duplicate/self-referrals or other ineligible transactions may reverse or cancel commission.

Disclosure example

Use plain language near the affiliate link. For example:

“This is an affiliate link. I may earn a commission if you purchase an eligible SurfStats Studio subscription, at no extra cost to you.”

Do not promise

  • Guaranteed income or business results.
  • Discounts or coupons that SurfStats has not authorized.
  • That every purchase earns commission.
  • That credit-pack/top-up purchases earn affiliate commission.
  • A payout date or amount before the transaction has been reconciled.
FAQ

Affiliate questions

Eligible monthly and yearly subscription-plan purchases tied to an approved referral can earn commission. Credit-pack and top-up purchases earn 0%.

The current base configuration is 20% for eligible monthly plans and 20% for eligible yearly plans. Approved campaign terms and configured caps can still control the final rate.

Not under the standard affiliate policy. Paid search, paid social, display, native and other performance advertising are prohibited unless SurfStats gives written authorization.

Only when SurfStats has expressly authorized that coupon, discount or promotion. Do not invent coupon codes or imply a special offer that does not exist.

Refunded, reversed, charged-back, fraudulent or otherwise ineligible transactions can reduce or cancel the related commission in line with the approved program terms.

After approval you should use the approved code/link structure supplied for your program. The authenticated Affiliate Promo Kit can then help build targeted referral links for different SurfStats landing pages.

Only by invitation. Being a customer, agency or creator partner does not automatically create Affiliate Program access or make referrals commissionable.

Use the public Examples, Proof Wall, Features pages and relevant use-case pages, or create your own honest demonstration. Avoid unsupported performance claims or fabricated customer results.
