Kinsta Managed WordPress Hosting Affiliate Program

Earn a commission after every referral

You earn $50 to $500 after every signup based on the type of plan you refer.

We understand users might not convert right away, that’s why we provide 60-day tracking cookies to ensure you get credited for the sale.

Your earnings are paid in a 60-day conversion window.

You get 10% monthly recurring commissions

True profit sharing by giving you recurring commission for the lifetime of the customer you referred, enabling you to build passive income.

With less than a 5% churn rate Kinsta customers rarely leave. So recurring commissions hold real value.

Payouts are always made on time and sent right to your PayPal account each month.
