Kinsta
Kinsta’s affiliate program rewards website owners and content creators for referring new customers to their premium hosting services. Affiliates earn up to $500 per referral plus a 10% lifetime monthly commission for as long as the referred customer maintains a paid account. Tracking is managed by a custom-built, in-house dashboard with real-time analytics, deep-linking, and a 60-day cookie window. Payouts are monthly via PayPal, and affiliates receive access to banners and referral resources.
