Overview

Joining an affiliate program on RefWaffle is simple. You sign up with your email, get a unique coupon code, and share it with your audience. Every time someone uses your code, you earn a commission.

Step 1: Sign up

The program owner will share a signup link with you (e.g. refwaffle.com/affiliate/theirprogram). Click the link, enter your email and PayPal address. That's it — you're in.

Step 2: Get your code

Once you're set up, you get a unique coupon code. Share it with your audience on social media, YouTube, your blog, or anywhere you have reach.

Your Coupon Code

PEWDIEPIE

10% discount for customers | 30% commission for you

If the affiliate program owner has set it up, you can also share a referral link. When visitors click it, they see a small modal offering the discount. If they click "Apply Discount", the code is saved for checkout. If they dismiss it, nothing is stored — it's fully GDPR compliant.

Step 3: Earn commissions

Every sale made with your coupon code earns you a commission. You can track your earnings, conversions, and payout history from your affiliate dashboard. Payouts go straight to your PayPal.

Tips for affiliates

  • Share your code in places where people are already interested in the product — relevant communities, review videos, tutorials.
  • Mention the discount prominently. People are more likely to use a code when they know they're saving money.
  • Use the referral link when posting online — visitors get a clear modal prompting them to apply the discount, so they won't forget the code.
