Run a creator affiliate & commission program
Recruit affiliates, agree commissions and pay out — the workflow keeps applications, terms and payouts in order.
The Affiliate & Commission workflow runs the whole program: application review, terms & tracking setup, active promotion, commission payout.
From application to payout in five steps
Search and message creators directly, or share your public opportunity link and let them apply.
Every application lands in the Application review stage — accept the ones that fit your brand.
Agree commission rates and payout terms in the workflow; tracking links and discount codes are issued in your shop system.
See who is in Active promotion, follow up with quiet affiliates and supply fresh creatives.
Payouts go through Stripe — the 4% platform fee is deducted from the creator's payout.

Frequently asked questions
Does Cloudfluencers track affiliate sales?
No — tracking links and discount codes live in your shop system. Cloudfluencers covers the process around it: recruiting, terms, the workflow and payouts. Be upfront with affiliates about where tracking happens.
How are commissions paid?
Through Stripe payouts. Brands pay exactly the agreed amount; the 4% platform fee is deducted from the creator's payout.
Can I run a private program?
Yes. Invite creators directly with the outreach tools for a private program, or publish a public opportunity and review incoming applications.
Affiliate or paid collaboration?
Affiliate pays per result; a paid collaboration is a fixed fee for defined deliverables. Many brands combine both: gifting or UGC first, affiliate terms for proven promoters.
