Customizing your program application form

This feature is only available on Business plans and above.

What is the program application form?

The program application form collects the information you want from people applying to your program. Use it to ask about websites, social accounts, experience, audience size, or any details that help you decide who to accept.

On Dub, you can create a custom application form for each partner group in your program. This is helpful for collecting different information from different partner types – e.g. influencers vs affiliates vs resellers.By default, when you create a new partner group, it reuses the application form details from your default partner group, but you can always edit them afterwards.

Where to find the application form builder?

From your Groups page, open the partner group you want to tailor the application form for.

From the tab navigation, click Branding, then in the content panel, choose Application form to open the editor.

For your convenience, here’s a quick link that brings you directly to the application form builder for your program’s default group.

Mandatory fields

Name, email, and country are always required and appear at the top of every form. You cannot remove or rename them.

Editing and adding fields

Hover over form content in the builder to reveal actions for adding, editing, deleting, and reordering fields. Content that appears above the form can only be edited. This keeps the page layout consistent for applicants.
