SDH Affiliate Program

Refer customers. Earn recurring commissions.

Approved affiliates may earn from qualifying payments and renewals of eligible SDH services. The program is for web designers, developers, agencies and business professionals who help customers choose a suitable service.

Start by registering in the SDH Client Portal. Registration alone is not affiliate approval.

How it works

From a recommendation to a reviewed payout.

    Register and apply

    Create or sign into an SDH Client Portal account, submit your affiliate application and accept the applicable terms. Registration alone is not affiliate approval.

  2. Illustration of a professional reviewing an application document.

    Get approved

    SDH reviews your application. Once approved, you receive your referral link and can begin recommending eligible services under the program terms.

    Customer pays and activates

    A qualifying referred service is activated and its related invoice is fully settled. The resulting commission is recorded as Pending.

    Request and receive payment

    When approved withdrawal requirements are met, request a payout. Earnings are marked Paid only after a completed transfer; submitting a request is not payment.

    Paid

Qualifying renewals can generate new commissions during the approved earning term, following the same review and payout process.

Eligible services and earnings

Know what qualifies.

Commission applies to qualifying original referred services, not automatically every future purchase or the entire customer invoice.

Review the terms that apply to your eligible referrals and renewals.

A Shared Hosting example

24 SDH Expand accounts.

Shared Hosting earns 20% commission on each qualifying payment and renewal, for monthly, quarterly, semiannual, annual, two-year and three-year terms. No separate one-time commission.

24 accounts × $160.80 USD per 12 months × 20% commission.

Total hosting charge for 24 accounts
$3,859.20 USD
Commission per qualifying account payment
$32.16 USD
Commission for 24 qualifying annual payments
$771.84 USD

The same 20% rate applies to the initial qualifying payment and each qualifying paid renewal. This example uses current SDH Expand hosting prices, rounds commission per account and excludes separately billed domains, add-ons and taxes. All 24 accounts and payments must qualify under the applicable terms. Commission follows the selected paid term; two- and three-year subscriptions do not create a separate yearly payout. Eligibility checks and payout requirements still apply.

Refer with confidence

Thoughtful recommendations. Clear disclosure. A service that fits the customer.

Do renewals earn commission?

Shared Hosting earns 20% on each qualifying paid invoice, including renewals, across monthly, quarterly, semiannual, annual, two-year and three-year billing. There is no separate one-time commission. Each qualifying payment follows the applicable review and payout process.

Does every customer purchase qualify?

No. A referral does not automatically create a commission on every later purchase or on the customer’s entire invoice. Commission applies to qualifying charges for the original referred services that are eligible under the approved program terms. Review the eligibility details before recommending a service, and share your assigned referral link with a clear disclosure.

When can I withdraw?

Only Available earnings that meet the approved withdrawal requirements can be requested for payout. Pending earnings are still undergoing the applicable hold or checks and cannot be withdrawn. Check the applicable program terms for withdrawal requirements, schedules and payment methods. Earnings are marked Paid only after the transfer has been completed; submitting a request is not payment.

What happens if a customer receives a refund?

A refund or payment reversal can adjust or reverse the commission related to that payment. The applicable program agreement explains the detailed conditions and how those adjustments are handled. Review those conditions before sharing your link so you understand how a change to a customer’s payment can affect the related earnings.
