Optional direct referral program
Participation is optional. You do not need to recruit anyone or buy a membership to use Free advertising features. Purchase commissions are paid only on qualifying purchases by your direct referred member; there are no purchase commissions on a referral chain and no reward for a Free registration alone. The service is an advertising product, not an investment or an income guarantee.
Rates and qualifying funds
The current direct commission rates are Free 20%, Gold 30%, Gold Plus 40%, and VIP Blast 75%. Your rate and cash eligibility are recorded at the qualifying sale. Commissions apply to qualifying net new external membership and advertising purchase funds. Taxes, wallet-funded amounts, unpaid or failed purchases, and self-referrals do not qualify. Refunds, chargebacks, and fraudulent transactions reverse associated commissions.
Attribution
A signed referral cookie normally records the first valid referrer for 30 days. The member account records the qualifying sponsor when it is created. Cookie restrictions, expired attribution, invalid referrals, and existing accounts can prevent attribution. Do not create duplicate accounts, refer yourself, manipulate cookies, purchase through controlled identities, or misrepresent a referral to obtain a reward. Contact support about an attribution error.
Restricted upgrade credit and cash eligibility
Commissions earned while Free are restricted upgrade credit. Once approved, they can fund eligible membership upgrades; they cannot be withdrawn as cash, and a later upgrade does not convert them into cash. Qualifying commissions earned with paid-member cash eligibility may be payable after review. Internal balances are not bank deposits, investments, or transferable currency.
Hold and Saturday payments
Commissions are held for seven business days from the completed purchase. Business days are Monday through Friday in Eastern time; weekends are excluded and holidays are not separately excluded. Eligible approved cash balances are processed manually on Saturdays after the underlying purchase funds have cleared and transferred. No member payout request is needed. The current minimum is $10 USD, as shown in your account. Verified account and payout details are required. Pending clearing, a dispute, an account restriction, or incomplete verification may move payment to a later Saturday.
Payment details and taxes
Choose an available Wise, Skrill, or Cash App destination in your account. Availability depends on provider and country support. We review destination changes before use. Never provide a processor password or bank login. You are responsible for accurate payment information, provider charges applicable to your receipt, and your own taxes and reporting obligations. We may request information needed to meet legal reporting or identity requirements.
Reversals and account review
A reversal removes the related pending or available earnings. If previously spent or paid earnings must be reversed, the adjustment is recorded for review and may offset later earnings; purchasing or payouts can be restricted until resolved. We will explain a disputed adjustment through support. Fraud or abuse may lead to suspension and forfeiture of invalid rewards, subject to applicable law.
Separate referral read credits
Completed qualifying member-mail reads can award internal mailing credits through five referral levels at 15%, 10%, 5%, 2%, and 1%. These credits are separate from purchase commissions. They can fund eligible mailings, have no cash or membership-upgrade value, and are not payments for recruitment. Invalid or manipulated activity does not qualify.
Promotion standards
Clearly disclose that you may earn a commission when sharing an affiliate link. Do not promise earnings, clicks, sales, or guaranteed traffic; invent testimonials; imply endorsement by Stripe or another provider; or present yourself as Safelist.Gold staff. Do not send spam, use misleading domains, conceal the final destination, or promote unlawful or prohibited offers. You are responsible for your own promotional costs and compliance with advertising rules.
Changes and questions
We may change future promotional terms with notice through the site or account communications. Recorded qualifying sale rates and legally owed amounts remain subject to the original transaction rules, including valid reversals. Contact support to stop participating or request review of a commission decision. These Affiliate Terms supplement the Terms of Service.
