Up to 35% of the plan price for up to 12 months. The exact rate depends on the API (not every listing pays the maximum).

In the affiliate dashboard, paste the marketplace listing URL under Commission for an API and click Check. You will see your percentage, per-plan estimates, and a referral link for that API.

The amount the customer actually pays on each invoice, after any discount, coupon, or promotion — not Zyla’s platform fee. Refunds and disputes can reduce or void commission on the affected charge.

On monthly billing, you can earn on each paid renewal in the first twelve months (up to twelve payouts). On annual billing, the first twelve months of that subscription are released as twelve monthly commission amounts.

API A — $99/mo plan at 35% → about $34.65 per month × 12. API B — same plan at 10% → about $9.90 per month × 12. Use the dashboard checker with a real listing for your exact rate.

A referral click lasts 90 days and must happen before the customer’s first payment. If more than one affiliate referred them, the last click within 90 days wins. Existing paying customers do not generate new commission.

You request payout from the dashboard and we approve it manually. PayPal or bank details and tax details must be approved first. Each commission is released 30 days after the customer’s payment, so refunds and disputes can be settled first, and payouts start at $100.

No self-referrals (same user, email, or card). No commission on an API you own — you still receive your provider payout. You can earn on other APIs in the Hub.

Yes, once the trial converts. If the customer starts a free trial through your link and then becomes a paying subscriber, you earn commission from the first paid invoice. If they cancel during the trial, or the first invoice is never collected, there is no commission.

Commission is voided when a charge is refunded, disputed, marked fraudulent, or never collected. If you already withdrew affected commission, your balance may go negative until future earnings cover it.

Commission rates, eligibility, and payouts are subject to the Affiliate program terms.
