Frequently asked questions

You promote a product or service using a unique tracking link. When someone signs up or buys through that link, the merchant pays you a commission — a percentage of the sale, a flat fee, or a recurring cut for as long as that customer stays subscribed, depending on the program.

Every program sets its own payout terms — refyr just lists them. That typically means: you apply directly to the program, get approved, get a personal tracking link from their dashboard, and they pay you (PayPal, bank transfer, etc.) once your balance clears their minimum payout threshold. Check each program’s detail page for its specific terms.

It’s how long a click on your link is credited to you after someone visits but doesn’t buy immediately. A 30-day cookie means you still get credit if they come back and purchase within 30 days; a 24-hour cookie means you likely won’t. Longer cookie windows are generally more valuable for products with a slower buying decision.

Recurring pays you a percentage of every renewal for as long as the customer stays subscribed (common for SaaS). One-time pays a flat amount per sale, once. Tiered increases your commission rate as you refer more sales in a period — refyr lists a program’s base/entry-tier rate, so always check the program’s own terms for the full tier structure.

No — plenty of affiliates promote through a newsletter, a YouTube channel, social posts, or even direct recommendations. What matters more than audience size is relevance: a smaller, engaged audience that trusts your recommendation in a specific niche often converts better than a large, unrelated one.

Lifetime Pro is a one-time purchase and is non-refundable once access has been granted, except where a refund is required by applicable law. See the full billing terms on our Terms page.

No. Pro is a single payment — there is no renewal and nothing to cancel. You keep lifetime access on that account.

No. Any commission you earn comes directly from the merchant you applied to — refyr isn’t a party to that relationship and never touches that money. refyr’s only revenue is the optional one-time Pro purchase.

refyr lists program details but isn’t a party to your agreement with any individual program, so we can’t issue a refund on a merchant’s behalf. Please report it via Contact so we can flag or remove the listing — that protects the next person who’d otherwise apply to it.

From Pricing (or any Upgrade / Get Pro button) — you’ll go through Stripe Checkout for a one-time payment. See Pricing for what Pro includes.

Pro is billed through Stripe, which supports major debit/credit cards. We don’t store your card details ourselves — Stripe handles that entirely.

Plan upgrades are applied by Stripe’s webhook a moment after checkout. Refresh the success page or your dashboard — if it still shows Free after a few minutes, email us with your receipt and we’ll fix it.

Right now, an account is either a Google account or an email/password account, based on how you first signed up. If you need to switch, email us and we’ll help sort it out.

There’s no self-serve settings page yet for either — email us and we’ll take care of it. Account deletion requests are typically confirmed within 30 days. See our Privacy Policy for the full data retention and deletion policy.
