Recommend BoldBellows and earn commission on every paid order.
Share automation that actually saves people time. When someone you referred pays for an order, you earn a clear percentage, tracked in your own dashboard and paid out by hand.
The program in four lines.
Everything important on one screen. The detail follows below, and the legal wording lives in the affiliate terms.
Capped at $250 per order, so a single huge order does not distort the math.
The last affiliate click before the order gets the credit.
Commission is approved 45 days after the order is paid, if it was not refunded.
Paid by hand through Stripe (the default), Payoneer or local bank transfer.
From application to payout in four steps.
No contracts and no sales targets. You apply, share, and get paid for the orders you genuinely send.

Get paid
Commissions are payable 45 days after the order is paid, then at the next payout batch once you reach $100.
Exactly what you earn and when.
These are the program defaults. They are written here and in the affiliate terms, and your dashboard always shows the numbers that apply to your account.
- Commission rate
- 5%
- Of the paid net order value: the amount the customer paid after discounts and refunds, before taxes.
- Cap per order
- $250
- The most one order can earn you, however large the order is.
- Cookie window
- 60 days
- How long a click stays valid. If several affiliates are clicked, the last click before the order wins.
- Approval hold
- 45 days
- A commission is payable 45 days after the order is paid, provided the order was not refunded or charged back. It is then paid at the next payout batch once the threshold is met.
- Payout threshold
- $100
- Your approved balance is paid once it reaches this amount. Smaller balances roll over to the next payout.
- Payout method
- Manual
- We pay using Stripe (the default), Payoneer or local bank transfer, whichever you set up in your dashboard. Bank transfer fees are borne by you and deducted from the payout.
Worked example with the default numbers. A customer you referred pays a net order value of $600. At 5% that is a $30 commission. A net order of $10,000 would come to $500 at 5%, which is above the $250 cap, so it pays $250. If the customer is later refunded, the commission is reversed in full for a full refund and in proportion for a partial refund.

Move the sliders to try different order sizes and volumes. The result uses the commission rate and cap shown above.
This calculator is an illustration of the commission rules, not a forecast and not a promise of earnings. Real results depend on your audience and on which orders are approved.
Orders above the cap earn $250 each, so this order value is capped.
At this pace you reach the $100 payout threshold after about 1 month of orders, plus the 45-day approval hold on each commission.

Questions people ask before applying.
Short answers about money, tracking and the rules. Anything not covered here is in the affiliate terms.
Who can join the affiliate program?
Anyone who can reach an audience that builds or runs a business online can apply: bloggers, newsletter writers, consultants, agencies, freelancers, communities and creators. We approve applications by hand, and the affiliate terms list who we cannot accept, such as sites with illegal or adult content.
Does it cost anything to join?
No. Joining is free, and there are no fees, quotas or minimum sales. You only earn when someone you referred pays for an order.
How much do I earn on each order?
You earn 5% of the paid net order value, which means the order total after discounts and refunds and before taxes. Commission on a single order is capped at $250, so very large orders stop earning more above that point.
How does tracking work?
Each approved affiliate gets a personal link. When a visitor clicks it, a cookie is stored for 60 days. If that visitor orders within the window, the order is credited to you. If they click several affiliate links, the last click before the order is the one that counts.
When is my commission approved?
Every commission starts as pending. It becomes approved 45 days after the order is paid, provided the order was not refunded or charged back. Approved commissions are paid at the next payout batch once your balance reaches the payout threshold.
When and how do I get paid?
Payouts are made by hand once your approved balance reaches $100. You choose how to be paid: Stripe (the default), Payoneer or local bank transfer. If you choose bank transfer, all bank, transfer and currency-conversion fees are paid by you and are deducted from the payout, so you receive the amount net of fees. Your dashboard shows each commission and its status, and you are told when a payout is sent.
What happens if a customer is refunded?
Any refund reverses the commission for that order. A full refund reverses it completely, so no commission is paid. A partial refund reduces it in proportion. If a refund or chargeback happens after a commission was paid, the amount is deducted from your future payouts. An order that is refunded during the approval hold never becomes approved.
Can I buy through my own link?
No. Self-referrals, orders for your own business and orders placed by people you control do not earn commission. You can still recommend us to your clients and earn on their orders, as long as they are genuinely separate buyers.
Am I allowed to run ads on the BoldBellows name?
You may promote us in content, reviews, social posts, communities and email to people who opted in to hear from you. Bidding on our brand name or close variations in paid search, and registering look-alike domains, are not allowed. The terms spell out the full list.
Do I have to tell my audience that I earn commission?
Yes. Honest promotion builds trust and the law requires it in many countries. Put a clear disclosure such as #ad, sponsored or affiliate link near each recommendation, and mark the links rel="sponsored" where your platform allows it.
Do I pay taxes on what I earn?
You are responsible for your own taxes. We may ask for a tax form, such as a W-9 for US persons or a W-8 for others, before the first payout. We do not give tax advice, so ask a qualified accountant if you are unsure.
What marketing material do I get?
Your dashboard includes a link builder for any page of the site, ready-to-use banners and text snippets, and a clear list of approved claims. You may use the logo and creatives only as provided there.
Can you remove me from the program?
We can suspend or end an account that breaks the terms, for example through spam, misleading claims or fake orders. You can leave at any time. Approved commissions earned before the end date are still paid, subject to the hold and the minimum payout.
Where do I see my results?
Sign in to the customer dashboard and open the Affiliate section. It shows clicks, referred orders, pending, approved and paid commission, and your payout history.
