What does the Payhip affiliate program pay?
50% recurring for life On the board, terms hand-checked
50% for life on subscriptions AND on Payhip's transaction fees. Top-three pick in 4 of 4 roundups checked. Careful: payhip.com/affiliate and /partners are seller storefronts, not the program.
At 50% of the $29/month plan, one referral pays about $14.50 a month for life. Customers cancel, so we assume medium churn (5.5% a month), based on how sticky this kind of tool tends to be. That makes one referral worth roughly $196 over its first 24 months.
