Affiliate referral link

Once you’ve logged into your affiliate dashboard, you’ll see your affiliate link on the left side of the page. This link is unique to your affiliate account and directs people who click on it to webflow.com. Those who click on it and visit Webflow, and have not visited Webflow previously will be tagged as referred by you. This tag will last for 90 days – the cookie window.

A standard affiliate referral link looks like this: https://webflow.com?rfsn=[UNIQUE_ID]

The 90-day cookie window

Your affiliate referral link has a 90 day tracking cookie. That means that any person who clicks on your affiliate link, who has not visited Webflow previously, will be tagged as referred by you with a tracking cookie. From the moment they are tagged, you will be commissioned for all subscriptions made until that cookie window expires on day 90. The subscriptions made within those 90 days will be paid out for the defined 12 months, or until those subscriptions are cancelled.

The affiliate link builder

You can create affiliate links to different pages on webflow.com and university.webflow.com using the link builder in your affiliate dashboard.

1. Under the link options in your dashboard, click Create link to a specific page

2. ‍Paste a webflow.com or university.webflow.com link

3. Create the link

4. ‍You can then copy the created affiliate URL and share it as you please.

Affiliate commission

The commission for affiliates is 50% of subscription payments for the first 12 months – for each subscription within the cookie window, or until the subscription(s) is cancelled. Each time a customer you referred subscribes to an account or site plan, a Webflow team member will review the conversion, and once approved you’ll receive an email confirmation.

Getting paid

In order to get paid as an affiliate you’ll need to have a PayPal account. Enter the email associated with your PayPal account in the payment settings of your affiliate account. You can expect to receive payments by the 15th of each month.
