How You Earn Money

20% Lifetime Commission

You earn 20% of every subscription payment your referrals make, for as long as they stay subscribed.

Examples

• Customer pays $24.95/month → You earn $4.99/month
• Customer pays $49.95/month → You earn $9.99/month
• Customer gets 20% discount → Your commission is also reduced by 20%

Note: Commission only applies to subscription payments, not one-time purchases like email packages.
