# Fourthwall Affiliate Plus Program

The Fourthwall Affiliate Plus Program lets qualifying creators earn commissions and sample credits by referring new creators to the platform. Creators who have made over $1,000 in total sales automatically qualify. Commissions are earned for 12 months on all eligible sales from each referred creator.

## Earnings breakdown

For 12 months after a referred creator registers, you earn a percentage of their product costs:

- **Physical products**: 10% of all product costs
- **Digital products**: 0.3% of sales (10% of Fourthwall's cut)
- **Membership subscriptions**: 0.5% of subscription revenue (10% of Fourthwall's cut)

In addition to commissions, you receive **$10 in sample budget** for each creator you refer, up to 20 referrals per month ($200 maximum in sample budget per month).

## How to refer users
