# Affiliate program

Earn a share of every payment from the accounts you send to Ripping, and how it is paid.

## What you earn

Apply on **Affiliates** in your account (or from getripping.com/affiliates, which shows the same program page). Once approved you get a link like `https://www.getripping.com/?ref=YOURCODE`. Anyone who clicks it and creates an account within 60 days is your referral; the last link they clicked wins. You earn a share of every payment that account makes for a set number of months from its first payment, and they get a discount on their first month. The current rate, window, hold and minimum payout are published at getripping.com/affiliates; they are set on Admin → Affiliates, and an earning keeps the rate it was made at.

## When you are paid

Each earning becomes payable after a hold that covers refunds. On the 1st of every month, if your payable balance is at least the minimum, it is transferred to your Ripping Payments account, which pays out to your bank on Stripe's schedule. If you haven't set up Ripping Payments yet (Money page), earnings wait for you.

## What the page shows

Referred and paying counts, what is payable now, what is still in its 30-day wait, what has been paid out, every earning with its date, and every payout.

## Rules

- No referring yourself, your own account or your own email address.
- No paid search on the Ripping brand, no spam, no misleading claims. Affiliates who do that are paused and lose what has not yet been paid.
- A refunded payment takes its commission back if it hasn't been paid out.
- Rates can change with 30 days' notice; what you have earned stays earned.
