Affiliate questions

How much can I actually earn?

You earn 20% of every payment a referred store makes during its first 12 months on a paid plan. There is no cap on how many stores you can refer, so your income scales with your reach.

How and when do I get paid?

Commissions are paid quarterly in US dollars, roughly 30 days after the end of each quarter, once your confirmed balance reaches $500. Balances below the threshold roll over to the next quarter.

How are my referrals tracked?

You get a unique referral link. When a merchant installs Fudge through it, the store is attributed to you and shows up in your reporting. Our tracking records are the source of truth for attribution.

Who can join the program?

Creators, newsletter writers, community owners, agencies, freelancers and consultants who reach Shopify merchants. Every application is reviewed by a human — we look for genuine audiences, not link farms.

Do you provide marketing materials?

Yes. Accepted affiliates get logos, product screenshots, demo videos and swipe copy, plus early word on launches worth promoting.

Can I refer my own store or existing Fudge customers?

No. Self-referrals and stores that are already Fudge customers are not commissionable. The full rules are in the affiliate program terms.

I'm an agency — should I join the affiliate program or become a trusted partner?

Both, ideally. The affiliate program pays you for referrals, while the trusted partner network gets you listed in our directory and sends client work your way. Plenty of partners combine the two.

Where can I read the full terms?

The complete program rules are in our Affiliate Program Terms.
