We track our affiliates' referrals in both Thinkific (our course platform) and a Google Sheet. Currently, all payouts are processed through PayPal Mass Pay, which will issue a 1099 for funds received.
Your commission is paid in two installments:
First Payout (50%) – Sent within 7 days after the promotional period ends (replay expiration date). This allows time to process all payments, including those made via Stripe, PayPal, Affirm, Klarna, and others, before transferring funds to PayPal Mass Pay.
Second Payout (50%) – Processed within 30 days after the promotional period ends, typically around three weeks after your first payout. This accounts for potential refunds, missed coupons, or other unexpected adjustments.
For affiliates earning commissions on payment plans, the remaining balance may be included in your second payout or issued about a week later, depending on when payments clear.
You can expect full payment within 45 days of the replay expiration date.
