How it works
Three steps. The third one repeats every month.
Get your link
Every signed-up StartupHub.ai user gets a unique referral link automatically. Find yours under My Account → Affiliate Program.
Share, get attributed
Drop your link anywhere — newsletter, X, LinkedIn, blog, podcast notes. Anyone who clicks within 60 days and pays is credited to you.
Get paid every month
50% of every invoice they pay, deposited to your bank via Stripe Connect. Above $50, paid out the 1st of the following month. Stripe handles tax forms.
Why this works
- Lifetime, not 12 monthsMost SaaS programs cut commission off after a year. We pay you for as long as your referral stays. Compounds with retention.
- No caps. No tiers.Refer one customer or a thousand. Same 50% rate, same payout cadence. Top affiliates earn five figures a month.
- Stripe Connect, not gift cardsReal money to a real bank account, not store credit. Stripe handles W-9 / W-8BEN, bank verification, currency conversion.
- Refund-safeCommissions enter a 14-day grace before becoming payable, so refunds and chargebacks reverse cleanly. No surprise clawbacks after payout.
Questions
Which plans qualify?
All paid plans: Pro Lite, Pro, Pro+, and every Agency tier. You earn 50% of the actual amount Stripe collects from your referral, on every invoice, for the lifetime of the subscription.
When do I get paid?
Once your pending balance crosses $50, Stripe Connect transfers the full balance to your connected bank account on the 1st of the following month. Below $50 the balance rolls over.
What if a referral cancels or refunds?
Each commission has a 14-day grace window before it becomes payable. If the customer refunds or chargebacks during that window, the commission is reversed before it ever pays out. After payout, refunds simply reduce future commissions from the same customer; we never claw back already-paid amounts.
Can I refer myself?
No. Self-referrals (the same auth ID using its own link) are filtered at signup. Don't try clever workarounds; we reconcile against Stripe customer email matches and any flagged accounts forfeit the program.
What's the cookie window?
60 days. Last-touch wins, so if a visitor clicks two different affiliate links inside the window the more recent one gets credit.
Can I run paid ads on StartupHub-branded keywords?
No. Bidding on "StartupHub", "StartupHub.ai", "startuphub", or any close variation in Google Ads, Meta, X, LinkedIn, or any other paid network is grounds for immediate termination and forfeiture of pending commissions. Earn the click; don't buy ours.
