The affiliate program

Join

Partner sign-up in the dashboard isn't open yet. Apply on the Partners page and we'll tell you when it opens. Once it does, you join from Partners in the dashboard and get your referral link right away.

How referrals are counted

• A click on your link sets a first-party cookie, _wl_ref, on wholayer.com for 90 days. It holds only your code.
• If the visitor clicks another partner's link later, that link replaces yours (last click wins).
• If they create a WhoLayer account within 90 days, their new workspace is credited to you. That's permanent: later clicks don't change it.
• People who already have an account, or who join a teammate's workspace by invitation, aren't counted as referrals.
• Clicks are counted as a daily total per link. We don't store IP addresses or anything else about the visitor.

What you earn

• 25% of every payment a referred workspace makes, excluding tax, for 24 months from its first payment. Upgrades count.
• Commission is based on what we actually collect. If a payment is refunded or charged back, we deduct the matching commission.
• Self-referrals don't earn commission: your own workspaces, sign-ups using your company email domain, and workspaces that share your billing account.

Getting paid

• Commission is pending for 30 days after each payment, then becomes payable.
• We pay once a month, by hand, when your payable balance is at least $50. Below that it rolls over to the next month.
• Choose PayPal (enter your PayPal email) or bank transfer (we'll contact you for your details) under Payout method on the Partners page.

Your dashboard

The Partners page shows your links with copy buttons, clicks, sign-ups, paying customers, pending, payable, and paid commission, and a statement of every commission, deduction, and payout.
