Frequently asked questions

Still wondering about something? Email hi@shifter.io and a real human will get back to you.

How much can I earn per referral?

Commission starts at 20% of the referred customer's invoice and goes higher for high-volume affiliates. Payout continues for every renewal while the account stays active, with no cap per sale and no cap per month.

How long does the cookie last?

Our affiliate cookie is valid for 30 days. If a visitor clicks your link, then signs up and buys within 30 days, the commission is yours.

When and how do I get paid?

Payouts run on a monthly cycle. You can withdraw once your balance crosses $100 in earned commissions. Payments are processed via wire transfer or crypto.

Do I need a website or audience to sign up?

No. There is no application gate and no minimum audience required. Anyone can sign up, get a tracking link, and start sharing it immediately.

Is there a minimum performance requirement?

No quota. Earn what you earn. We do require that promotion stays on-brand and within our Affiliate Terms (no cookie stuffing, no incentivized clicks, no trademark bidding on Shifter terms).
