Learn more about Shopify Affiliates

The Shopify Affiliate Program is a network of entrepreneurs, educators, influencers, content creators, and others who send referrals to Shopify. It’s free to sign up for the Shopify Affiliate Program, but you’ll have to apply. Once approved, you’ll get a unique referral link to share with your audience. You earn each time someone signs up using your link. Payouts are made via PayPal on a biweekly basis, and may be subject to taxes.
Shopify Affiliates make money whenever someone signs up for Shopify using their unique referral link. Payouts happen via PayPal on a biweekly basis. You’ll get paid five business days after the 15th of the month and five business days after the last day of the month. If your commissions equal less than $25, Shopify will hold your earnings and release them with the next pay disbursement.
On average, Shopify Affiliates earn $58 for each merchant who signs up for a paid Shopify plan using their unique referral link. You can earn as much or as little as you want — it all depends how much time, energy, and money you want to invest in your affiliate marketing strategy.
