Partner around real creative workflows—not generic AI hype.
SurfStats partners can demonstrate how a real idea, product, script, room photo or client brief becomes usable images, videos, ads, voiceovers, campaigns and delivery-ready assets.
Four ways to partner with SurfStats
Pick the relationship that matches how you create, teach, refer or deliver client work.
Affiliate partners
Selected creators, educators, reviewers, newsletter owners and communities can be invited to recommend SurfStats with approved tracked links.
Recruiters
Recruit qualified Affiliates. Earn an override on the commission those Affiliates generate from eligible SurfStats subscriptions.
Agency partners
Use client workspaces, team roles, Brand Kits, campaigns, approvals, publishing and exports to demonstrate an end-to-end agency workflow.
Creator & education partners
Teach a real workflow using remixable examples, public use-case pages and proof rather than a generic software pitch. Affiliate commission eligibility requires a separate SurfStats invitation.
Know exactly what each partner type means.
This separation keeps agency relationships, content collaborations and commission-bearing referrals from being confused with one another.
| Partner type | Primary purpose | Subscription commission | Credit packs | Approval |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Affiliate | Recommend SurfStats to an audience with tracked links and disclosure. | Base 20% monthly / 20% yearly, subject to campaign terms. | 0% | Required |
| Recruiter | Introduce qualified creators, agencies, educators or referral partners. | Configured base 10%; approved campaign overrides may differ. | 0% | Required |

| Creator / educator | Create tutorials, reviews, walkthroughs and workflow education. | No automatic commission. Approved affiliates can become commission-eligible. | — | Only for referral commission |
From partnership idea to measurable activation
The strongest partner path starts with a useful workflow and ends with a clearly tracked next action.
Choose your partner path
Compare Affiliate, Recruiter, Agency or Creator/Education based on how you actually work with your audience.
Invitation where required
Affiliate and Recruiter participation is invitation-only. Agency use of SurfStats does not require a referral-program invitation.
Choose a concrete workflow
Use a product ad, character video, interior redesign, long-form presenter, business campaign or another real SurfStats use case.
Create or clone proof
Start from a real brief or clone one of the public examples so people can see what the workflow actually does.
Use the right landing page
Send product audiences to product ads, agencies to /agency, creators to video workflows, and uncertain users to Ask SurfStats.
Share your tracked referral
Approved programs use referral codes and targeted return URLs so SurfStats can remember the source and route visitors to the intended page.
Disclose the relationship
Affiliate and recruiter promotions should clearly disclose the commercial relationship and follow the applicable program policy.
Measure qualified activation
Judge the partnership by useful outcomes such as signups, first drafts, paid subscriptions and retained customers—not clicks alone.
Use proof, targeted pages and tracked links.
You do not need to explain every SurfStats feature. Match one audience to one useful workflow.
Remixable examples

What a good referral looks like
- Show a real problem your audience already has.
- Demonstrate one SurfStats workflow solving that problem.
- Explain the inputs, steps and expected credit use.
- Link directly to the matching use-case page or workflow.
- Include the required affiliate/recruiter disclosure where applicable.
How referral attribution works
Approved affiliate and recruiter codes can send a visitor through a SurfStats referral link and then onward to a targeted return page. SurfStats remembers the referral source and reconciles eligible paid events with FastSpring-backed payment data.
Commission records remain subject to the applicable campaign percentage, eligibility rules, successful collection, refunds, chargebacks and payout terms.
Subscriptions and credit packs are treated differently
The standard affiliate program is configured around eligible subscription revenue. Credit-pack/top-up purchases are deliberately non-commissionable at 0%.
Recruiter and affiliate percentages can also be overridden for an approved referral campaign, so the campaign/program terms are the final source for the applicable rate.
