What is the Studio Template Affiliate Program?
The Studio Template Affiliate Program is a program that lets you earn rewards by listing free templates on Studio.Store.
When a project created from your free template is upgraded to a paid plan (annual billing) and meets certain conditions, you — as the template creator — earn a reward based on the plan type.
Point: There are two ways to earn rewards by listing templates.
【Paid template listings】
Reward type: Sales rewards
How it works: Revenue from purchased templates goes directly to the creator as a reward.
【Free template listings】
Reward type: Studio Template Affiliate Program
How it works: When a user creates a site from your free template and upgrades that project to a paid plan, you earn a reward.
This article explains how to earn rewards by listing free templates.
For details on how to list a template, see How to submit and sell templates.
Conditions for earning rewards
To earn rewards through the Studio Template Affiliate Program, the following conditions must be met:
(1) The template must be free
Paid templates are not eligible for the Studio Template Affiliate Program. For paid templates, the template sale itself counts as your reward.
(2) A project created from the template must be upgraded to a paid plan (annual billing)
When a project created from your free template is upgraded to a paid plan with annual billing, your reward is generated immediately.
If the project is upgraded to a monthly paid plan: No reward is generated. However, if the user later switches to an annual plan, the reward is confirmed at that time.
(3) The upgrade must happen within 12 months
If the project is not upgraded to a paid plan (annual billing) within 12 months of the free template being downloaded, it will not be eligible for a reward.
How rewards work and how you get paid
Eligible templates: Once your free template passes review and is published, it automatically becomes eligible for rewards. No additional application is needed.
Reward amount: 50% of the paid plan price (annual billing) (first year only)
Confirmation and payment schedule: Rewards are confirmed 4 business days after they're generated, and are automatically deposited into your registered bank account a few days later. No manual withdrawal is required.
How to check your rewards
You can check your rewards through the external service "Stripe."
Open the Studio.Design project dashboard.
Select [Store Management] from the left menu.
Click [Sales History] (this will take you to Stripe, an external payment service).
The Stripe dashboard will appear, where you can view your rewards.
