How the Kinsta affiliate program works
Kinsta pays a one-time bounty between $50 and $500 per referral, set by the plan the customer buys, plus a 10% lifetime recurring commission on the plan’s monthly fee. Tracking uses a 60-day last-touch cookie, and payouts run monthly through PayPal once your balance passes $50.
