Affiliate Programme

Earn 20% of every payment, for as long as they stay

Most hosting affiliate programmes pay a big one-off bounty and stop caring what happens next. We pay a share of what we actually receive, every month, for the life of the plan — which only works if we keep your referral happy.

Why This One

Built to reward the right referral

Recurring commission changes the incentive: we both do better when your audience actually stays.

Recurring, not one-and-done

You earn 20% of every payment your referral makes — the first one and every renewal after it. Most programmes pay once and forget you.

Renewals never inflate

Our prices don't jump after year one, so referrals stay far longer than they do with hosts that ambush them at renewal. Your commission lasts as long as they do.

Promote in any market

We sell worldwide and accept cards from any country. Your audience does not have to be in the UK or the US for a referral to convert.

Something you can defend recommending

Free SSL, free migration, honest renewals, a real registered company. You are not going to have to apologise to your audience for this one.

How It Works

Three steps, then it runs itself

  1. 1

    Apply for an account

    Tell us where you'll be promoting. We approve real sites, newsletters, channels and communities — we're not interested in coupon-scraping or trademark bidding.

  2. 2

    Share your link

    Your unique link sets a 90-day cookie. If someone clicks today and buys three weeks later, the referral is still credited to you.

  3. 3

    Get paid every month

    Commission is confirmed once the order passes our 30-day money-back window, then paid out monthly above the $50 threshold.

Common Questions

Questions about the programme

How much do I actually earn?

20% of every payment your referral makes, for as long as they stay with us. On a $2.79/mo plan billed annually that's about $6.70 a year, every year they renew. On a $29.99/mo reseller plan it's roughly $72 a year, recurring. The arithmetic favours quality over volume: ten referrals who stay five years are worth far more than fifty who churn in three months.

Why recurring instead of a big one-off payment?

Because a large upfront bounty rewards whoever sends the most signups, regardless of whether those signups are a good fit — and that is how affiliate programmes end up full of misleading reviews. Paying a share of what we actually receive means we only do well if your referral stays, which means you are incentivised to recommend us to people we genuinely suit. It is the same reason we don't inflate renewal prices.

Is this the same as reseller hosting?

No, and the difference matters. As an affiliate you send us a customer, we bill and support them, and you take a share of the revenue with no work after the referral. As a reseller you buy capacity from us and sell hosting under your own brand — you set the prices, keep the whole margin, own the customer relationship, and handle first-line support. Affiliates earn passively; resellers run a business. If you have clients you already build sites for, reselling is usually far more profitable.

When and how do I get paid?

Commission is confirmed once the referred order passes our 30-day money-back window — we can't pay out on an order that might still be refunded. After that, balances above $50 are paid monthly in USD. If a customer later refunds or files a chargeback, that commission is reversed.

What's not allowed?

Bidding on our brand name in paid search, because you'd be charging us for traffic that was already ours. Coupon and voucher spam. Cookie stuffing. Referring yourself or your own orders. And, most importantly, making claims about us that aren't true — if you write that we have datacentres in twelve countries, you'll have a reader who feels lied to and we'll both have earned that. Our infrastructure page states exactly where we host; please stick to it.

Can I promote to people outside the UK?

Yes, and we'd encourage it. We accept cards from any country and sell worldwide. Do read our infrastructure page first though, so you set honest expectations: our servers are in London, which is excellent for Europe and perfectly workable elsewhere with caching, but a poor fit if your audience is entirely in Australia or East Asia. A referral who refunds inside 30 days earns you nothing, so matching us to the right audience is in your interest as much as ours.

Do you offer a higher rate for larger volumes?

Not as a published tier, because bolt-on tiers usually exist to make the headline rate look better than it is. If you're sending consistent, genuine volume, get in touch and we'll talk properly — we'd rather negotiate honestly with a real partner than advertise a rate almost nobody reaches.
