Affiliate Cash Payouts

Earn real money through the affiliate program with Stripe Connect

The Affiliate Program is an upgraded version of the referral system designed for content creators, trading educators, and influencers who want to earn cash commissions (not just credits) for bringing new subscribers to TradeLog.

Affiliate vs. Referral

  • Referral Program: Available to everyone. Earns 20% subscription credits (reduces your own bill).
  • Affiliate Program: Application-based. Earns 20% lifetime cash commissions paid to your bank account.

How Affiliate Payouts Work

The affiliate program uses Stripe Connect Express for secure, automated payouts. When one of your referred users pays their subscription, 20% of that payment is credited to your affiliate balance. Once your balance reaches the minimum payout threshold, you can request a withdrawal. Note: for anti-fraud protection, each commission becomes withdrawable 30 days after it is earned -- the $100 minimum applies to your matured balance, and payouts cover the matured amount only.

  • 20% lifetime commission on every payment from your referred users
  • Minimum payout threshold: $100
  • Payouts processed through Stripe Connect Express (direct to your bank)
  • Commission continues for as long as the referred user stays subscribed
  • Full dashboard showing earnings, pending commissions, and payout history

Who Should Apply

The affiliate program is ideal for trading educators and course creators, YouTube or social media content creators in the trading space, trading community leaders and Discord/Telegram group admins, and bloggers or newsletter writers covering trading tools and resources.

Combine your affiliate link with genuine content about how you use TradeLog. Authentic recommendations convert far better than generic promotions. Show your actual dashboard, share specific features you find valuable, and explain how the journal has improved your trading.
Affiliate payouts are subject to admin approval. Fraudulent referrals (fake accounts, self-referrals) will result in commission reversal and potential removal from the program.
