How it works

From link to ledger in five steps.

No black box. Each stage below has a matching state in your dashboard, so you can see exactly where any commission sits.

  1. 01

    Apply

    Sign in with your RacingAPI.net account and tell us where you publish. Every application is reviewed by a person.

  2. 02

    Share your link

    Once approved you get a unique referral link. Visitors who consent to referral tracking are attributed to you for 30 days.

  3. 03

    Earn on paid invoices

    When a referred account pays a subscription invoice, 20% of the eligible amount is recorded against you for 12 months from their signup.

  4. 04

    Hold, then request

    Each commission is held for 30 days to allow for refunds and disputes. Cleared balances of £50 or more can be requested.

  5. 05

    Manual monthly payment

    We review requests and pay approved amounts by manual bank transfer to the account you add in your dashboard, then record the payment. Your contact email is used for communications.

The commission clock

Every date that matters, on one rail.

Attribution is consented first-touch: the first affiliate link a visitor agrees to counts, if they create a new account within 30 days. Positions below are indicative, not to scale.

Earnings example

Work the maths yourself.

Drag the sliders to see how the published terms apply. Every figure here is illustrative and uses an assumed price, not a real customer balance.

Illustrative, not a forecast

Commission per paid month

£47.40

Across 12 paid months

£568.80

£79.00 × 20% × 3 × 12. Each commission is held 30 days before it clears; at this rate cleared commission would pass the £50 payout minimum after about 2 paid months plus the hold. Refunds and disputes reduce totals.

FAQ

Questions publishers ask

Do free trials earn commission?+

No. Trials and zero-value invoices are not paid revenue, so no commission is recorded. Commission starts with the first paid invoice.

What happens if a customer refunds?+

Refunds and disputes reduce or reverse the related commission. If it was already paid, the reversal is offset against future earnings.

Can I refer my own account or existing customers?+

No. Self-referrals and accounts that already existed before the referral are excluded.

How am I paid?+

By manual bank transfer, monthly. Add UK or international bank details in your affiliate dashboard; they are encrypted and shown back to you masked. Your contact email is used for notifications only. Nothing is paid automatically.

Is the estimate guaranteed?+

No. Figures on this page are illustrative. Your earnings depend entirely on real paid invoices from referred accounts.

Applications use your existing RacingAPI.net account.
