Common questions from new partners
Still unsure? Email patrick@recipekit.com and we'll get back to you.
How much can I realistically earn per referral?
It depends on the plan the store picks. At 20% recurring, a store on Growth ($40/month or $360/year) earns you $72 to $96 a year. A store on Essentials ($25/month) earns you up to $60 a year. Stores on the Free plan do not pay, so they earn no commission until they upgrade.
How long does the commission last?
For as long as the referred store stays subscribed. Commission is 20% of every payment they make, no time cap. Each store you refer is tracked separately from its own first paid charge.
What's the cookie window for attribution?
14 days. If a merchant clicks your link and installs Recipe Kit within 14 days, the referral is yours. We match the install to your click when the merchant first opens the app, even if they went to the Shopify App Store on their own. They can also enter their store on your link's page, which makes the match certain.
When and how do you pay out?
Payouts are monthly. Each one comes with a statement of the stores you referred and what you earned from each. Commissions on refunded subscriptions are clawed back.
Can I refer my own store?
No. Self-referrals, referrals to stores you own or operate, and referrals to stores where you're the Shopify account holder are not eligible for commission. But you can absolutely use Recipe Kit on your own store, just not through your partner link.
Do you have marketing materials I can use?
Yes. Approved partners can ask us for brand assets, screenshots and case studies. Our published customer stories are on this site too.
