How affiliate links work
Affiliate links allow you to track referrals and earn commissions when users sign up for Framer through your unique URLs.
How to Get Your Affiliate Links
Once you’re an approved Creator, you’ll find the Links tab in your dashboard. Here, you can:
Get your main affiliate link – This default link cannot be deleted and tracks all conversions.
Create custom links – Generate specific URLs to track referrals to different Framer pages.
Tracking & Payouts
The Links tab shows real-time analytics, including:
Clicks – How many people visited via your link.
Sign-ups – How many registered accounts.
Subscriptions – How many users upgraded.
Earnings – Your accumulated commissions.
All affiliate links are powered by Dub, which handles both referral tracking and payouts. Payouts are processed automatically via Stripe, so ensure your payment details are set up in Dub to receive earnings. To manage your payouts, update your payment information, and track earnings in detail, visit Dub directly.
