The **Ruachost Affiliate Program** pays you for recommending Ruachost. Share your affiliate link, and when someone buys hosting through it, you earn **30% commission**.

It's free to join and open to any Ruachost customer: bloggers, web designers, developers, agencies, trainers and anyone with an audience.

2. Go to the [Affiliates page](https://dashboard.ruachost.com/affiliates.php).
3. Click **Activate Affiliate Account**.

Your affiliate account is ready straight away, with your own referral link.

## How it works

1. **Share your link.** Copy your referral link from the Affiliates page and share it on your website, blog, social media, videos or with your clients.
2. **Someone clicks it.** We remember the visitor for **90 days**. If they buy hosting during that time, the sale is credited to you, even if they don't buy on the first visit.
3. **You earn 30%.** You get 30% of what they pay for their **first hosting order**. Renewals and other products such as domains and SSL don't earn commission.
4. **Commission is approved after 30 days.** This covers our money-back guarantee period. If the customer cancels or is refunded within that time, the commission is cancelled.
5. **Withdraw your earnings** once your approved balance reaches ₦40,000.
