WithMe pays you 20% of the subscription of every creator you refer, for as long as they stay on WithMe. You share your own referral link, the creator signs up through it and pays for their plan, and your reward is paid monthly into the Stripe account you connect. There is no cap on how many creators you can refer. Below is how it works, where to find your link, what counts, when you are paid and how to recommend WithMe honestly.
WithMe is $25 per month billed annually (UK £25), with a 14-day trial and 0% WithMe commission. Stripe and PayPal fees still apply. More than 8,000 creators use it.
How does the WithMe referral programme work?
There are three steps, the same ones shown on your Refer page: create your hub, share your link, earn. When a creator signs up through your link, they appear in your referrals. When they pay for their WithMe plan, you earn 20% of their subscription, and you keep earning for as long as they stay.
This is not the same as WithMe's product affiliate programme. Product affiliates are your buyers, who earn a commission when they sell your course, membership or other product. The referral programme is creator to creator: you recommend WithMe itself, and WithMe pays you a share of what the creator pays WithMe. Their sales, customers and income stay theirs.
How much can you earn?
WithMe is $25 a month billed annually, so each creator you refer is worth about $5 a month to you, or $60 a year, for as long as they stay. In the UK the plan is £25, so about £5 a month per creator.
Five creators who stay is about $25 a month, the price of your own plan. Twenty is about $100 a month. The calculator on the WithMe referrals page shows the same sum in your currency.
The reward follows what the creator actually pays. If they pay for a year up front, you earn 20% of that yearly payment, and it reaches you in one monthly payout once it has cleared, rather than in twelve small amounts.
Your Refer page shows your real figures: Active Referrals, Monthly Earnings, Total Earnings, Paid out and an estimated Next payout.
Where do you find your referral link?
Your link lives on the Refer page of your WithMe dashboard. To find it and share it:
- Open More in your dashboard and choose Refer. On a computer you can also pin Referrals to your sidebar from the More page.
- Click Create Referral Link. Your personal link appears under Share your referral link.
- Click Copy, or use the share buttons for Twitter, Facebook, Messenger, Instagram and LinkedIn.
- To invite people you know, add their email addresses in the email invite box and send. WithMe emails each of them an invitation with your link.
- If you have not connected Stripe yet, do it in Payouts. Until you do, the Refer page shows Connect Stripe to be paid.
You can also put your link on your own hub. In Add product, choose Affiliate Link (Share and earn commissions). It adds a button to your hub that opens your referral link, with your own title, button text and description.
What counts as a referral?
Every creator who signs up through your link is listed in your referrals table with their name, the date they joined and a status: Incomplete, Not Subscribed, Subscribed or Launched. A reward is earned only when they pay. The rules:
- The creator has to sign up through your link. A recommendation without the link cannot be traced back to you.
- You earn on what the creator pays WithMe for their plan, not on what they sell to their own customers.
- A sign-up who never pays shows in your table but earns nothing.
- A payment counts once it is 30 days old, so it has time to clear before it is paid out.
- Payments that are refunded or disputed do not count.
When and how are you paid?
Rewards are paid monthly, by Stripe transfer into the Stripe account you connect in Payouts. You do not send an invoice or request a payout. Your Refer page shows the estimated next payout and the date it is due.
Three rules decide whether a reward is paid:
- There is a £10 minimum. If your rewards for a month come to less, they carry over and are added to a later payout.
- Keep paying WithMe. Rewards are paid while your own plan is active. Rewards that come due while your plan is paused or behind on payment are lost, not saved for later.
- Connect Stripe within 180 days. A reward still unpaid after 180 days, for example because no Stripe account was ever connected, lapses.
How do you recommend WithMe honestly?
The referrals that pay are the ones that stay. A creator who cancels after a month earns you very little, so recommend WithMe to people it suits and tell them why.
- Say that you earn from it. For example: I run my courses and community on WithMe, and if you join through my link I get a share of your subscription. People trust you more for saying it, and advertising rules in many countries expect it.
- Show your own hub. A link to your real storefront, course or community says more than a list of features.
- Be specific about what it replaced. If you moved from three tools to one, name them and say what you save each month.
- Say what it does not do. If someone needs a feature WithMe does not have, tell them. A creator who joins on a wrong promise leaves.
- Mention the 14-day trial, so they can try it before they pay.
- Do not spam. Share on your own channels and with people you know, and use the email invite only for contacts who would expect to hear from you.
Who should you refer?
Creators who sell, or want to sell, courses, coaching, memberships, a community or digital products, and who pay today for several separate tools to do it. They are the ones with the clearest reason to switch, and the most likely to stay.
Start with the creators you already talk to: people in your niche, peers from a course or mastermind, and followers who ask what you use for your own business.
What is not included?
The reward is a share of the referred creator's WithMe subscription only, never of their sales. It is paid through Stripe only, as a transfer to your connected Stripe account, not by PayPal. There are no tiers that raise the rate as you refer more creators, and no separate partner dashboard outside your Refer page. If you do not want to become a creator yourself, the WithMe referrals page says you can still refer and asks you to contact WithMe.
How much does WithMe cost?
WithMe is $25 per month billed annually (UK £25), with a 14-day trial and 0% WithMe commission. Stripe and PayPal fees still apply. The referral programme is included in the plan: there is nothing extra to join, and your link is on your Refer page.
WithMe referral programme questions
How much do I earn for referring a creator to WithMe?
20% of their subscription, for as long as they stay on WithMe. On the $25-a-month plan billed annually, that is about $5 a month, or $60 a year, per creator.
Where is my WithMe referral link?
In your dashboard, open More and choose Refer. Click Create Referral Link, then Copy. You can also add it to your hub as an Affiliate Link product.
When are referral rewards paid?
Monthly, by Stripe transfer to the Stripe account you connect in Payouts. A payment counts once it is 30 days old, and the minimum payout is £10; smaller amounts carry over. Your Refer page shows the estimated next payout and its date.
Do I have to stay on a paid WithMe plan?
Yes. Rewards are paid while your own plan is active. Rewards that come due while it is paused or unpaid are lost, and a reward still unpaid after 180 days, for example because Stripe was never connected, lapses.
Is this the same as WithMe's affiliate programme?
No. Product affiliates are your buyers, earning commission on your courses, memberships and other products. The referral programme pays you for bringing other creators to WithMe itself.
