Shopify Affiliates

The Shopify Partner Program is a community of designers, developers, and creatives who build ecommerce websites, themes, and apps using the Shopify platform. Shopify offers its partners three ways to grow their business and generate ongoing monthly revenue:

• Refer clients to Shopify
• Create ecommerce themes and publish them in the Shopify Theme Store
• Create Shopify Apps and publish them in the Shopify App Store

When you sign up for the Shopify Affiliate Program, you’ll receive a special link to Shopify that you can share through various channels, such as ads, social media posts, or your blog. The commission payout is 200% per sale, meaning you earn 200% of a merchant’s subscription fee each time you refer someone to Shopify. You can make up to $598 per sale on standard plans and up to $1,500 on the Enterprise plan. Payments are issued 100% for month 1 paid and 100% for month 2, and the commission will reflect any plan upgrades or downgrades during that time.

Shopify maintains a 30-day cookie, which means that if a visitor clicks on your link and signs up for a free trial within 30 days, you’ll be credited with the referral. Once the free trial ends and the user becomes a paying customer at any time, you’ll earn your commissions.

Payments are made on a monthly basis. For credits created between the 1st and 15th of the month, payment will occur 5 business days after the 15th day of the month. For credits created between the 16th and the last day of the month, payment will occur 5 business days after the last day of the month.
