On Dub Partners, you can offer different incentives for your partners to incentivize them to create high quality content to spread the word about your product:

Reward typeDescription
Click-based (pay-per-click)Rewarding partners for driving clicks to your product – similar to how Google Ads' pay-per-click works.
Lead-based (pay-per-lead)A more effective alternative to pay-per-click, where you reward partners for leads generated (e.g. demo requests, free trial signups, etc.)
Sale-based (pay-per-sale)This is the most common reward type, where you reward partners for driving sales to your product either via a rev-share or fixed-price commission.

Program-wide reward

During the program onboarding flow, you'll be asked to create a program-wide reward that will be automatically applied to all new partners who join your program.

This reward will be a sale-based reward by default, but you can customize the reward terms accordingly:

Reward behavior

  • One-off: Partners only receive reward for the first sale
  • Recurring: Partners receive rewards for each subscription payment – for a limited time (e.g. 12 months) or for the customer's lifetime

Reward model

  • Percentage: Partners receive a percentage of sales (AKA rev-share), e.g. 30%.
  • Flat: Partners receive a flat fee for each sale, e.g. $50.

Additional rewards

With Dub Partners, you can also create additional rewards for specific groups of affiliates.

This is useful for:

  • Negotiating higher reward rates with larger influencers/content creators (e.g. 40% of each sale instead of the usual 30%)
  • Creating multiple reward "tiers" that partners can graduate into when surpassing certain revenue thresholds. For example:
    • $5K or more per month → 30% of sales
    • $10K or more per month → 40% of sales
    • $20K or more per month → 50% of sales

You can also create lead-based and click-based rewards to further incentivize partners to create high quality content that drive traffic to your brand.
