How it works
Four steps, no spreadsheets.
- 1
Sign up
Apply at console.bytespike.ai/affiliate. Approval is usually same-day for individual creators and within 48 hours for partner organisations. We do read every application — there's no auto-approve.
- 2
Get your link
Once approved, the dashboard issues a unique referral URL like bytespike.ai/?ref=yourname plus a per-campaign UTM builder. Share the link in posts, videos, course materials, anywhere honest.
- 3
Track conversions
The dashboard shows clicks, sign-ups, conversions, and accrued commission per campaign in near-real-time. Export CSV for your own bookkeeping.
- 4
Get paid
Set your payout method (PayPal / Wise / USDT). On the 15th of each month, the prior month's accrued earnings transfer. No minimum threshold, no ticket required.
Volume tiers
Earn more as you scale.
Tiers apply to the whole month's earnings, not just the increment, and reset at the start of each calendar month. No tier-jump punishments, no claw-backs.
| Monthly attributed spend | Commission rate | Tier |
|---|---|---|
| $0 – $4,999 | 10.0% | Standard |
| $5,000 – $24,999 | 12.5% | Plus |
| $25,000+ | 15.0% | Partner |
Frequently asked
The exact rules.
Affiliate programs are usually opaque. We try to make this one legible enough that you can decide whether it's a fit before applying.
How does the 10% lifetime commission work?
When someone clicks your referral link and becomes a paying ByteSpike customer within the 100-day cookie window, you earn 10% of every dollar they spend on credits and subscriptions — for as long as they remain a customer. There's no cap on per-customer earnings or annual total.
What counts as a paying customer?
Any account that tops up at least $5 of credits or subscribes to a paid plan (Pro / Max / Enterprise). The Free tier alone doesn't count, but the moment a Free user converts to paid — even years after their first click, as long as the cookie was set within 100 days of conversion — they're attributed to you.
What's the attribution model?
Last-touch within the 100-day window. If a user clicks Affiliate A's link, then 60 days later clicks Affiliate B's link, then converts, B gets the credit. We use first-party cookies on bytespike.ai plus a server-side fingerprint hash so the attribution holds even when browser cookies are wiped (subject to the user signing in with the same email or wallet during conversion).
When do I get paid?
Payouts run on the 15th of each month for the prior calendar month. Your console.bytespike.ai/affiliate dashboard shows accrued, pending, and paid balances in real time. Payouts go via PayPal (USD), Wise (multi-currency), or USDT-ERC20 (your wallet). You can update your payout method any time before the 15th cutoff.
Can I refer my own organisation?
No. Self-referrals (same email domain or matching payment method) are reversed during the monthly settlement. Referring people inside organisations you're a member of is fine, but referring your own org's master account isn't.
Are refunded or chargeback amounts deducted?
Yes. If a customer refunds or initiates a chargeback, the corresponding commission is reversed in the next payout cycle. ByteSpike's refund policy itself is conservative (we don't refund credits already spent on successful API calls), so reversals are rare.
What promotional content can I use?
We provide brand assets (wordmark SVGs, color tokens, screenshots) under bytespike.ai/legal/brand-assets. You're free to write your own honest reviews, comparisons, and tutorials. Don't impersonate ByteSpike, don't claim partnerships we haven't agreed to, and don't run paid ads on our brand keywords (we run those ourselves).
Is there a tiered structure for high-volume affiliates?
Above $5,000 / month in attributed customer spend, the commission rate steps up to 12.5%. Above $25,000 / month, 15%. These tiers apply to the whole month's earnings, not just the increment, and reset at the start of each calendar month. Get in touch at affiliate@bytespike.ai if you're already running a sizeable program elsewhere — we can fast-track you.
Ready to apply?
Approval is same-day for most creators. Once you have your link, start earning on the next paying customer who clicks through. No deck required, no quotas, no minimum threshold for payout.
