About the Program
The Checkout Risk Affiliate Program is designed for creators, consultants, and professionals who work with Shopify stores and want to monetize trusted recommendations — without selling subscriptions or long-term services.
You promote a single frontend product:
a checkout risk snapshot that answers one question:
“Is it safe to scale traffic into this checkout right now?”
We handle checkout, delivery, reporting, and customer support.
Commission Structure (Important)
Commission Terms
- Commission rate: 90%
- Applies only to: the first frontend snapshot purchase made by a new customer
- Cookie duration: 60 days
- Commission frequency: one-time per referred customer
Commission is paid only once per referred customer.
What this means in practice
If a referred customer:
- buys their first snapshot → commission paid
- may, at their discretion, purchase another Snapshot in the future → no commission
- returns after the cookie period → no commission
- may, at their discretion, purchase a Deep Dive → no commission
Any such subsequent purchases or upsells belong entirely to Checkout Risk.
Payouts

- Minimum payout: $100
- Payment methods: Stripe, Wise or PayPal
- Commission eligibility: Commissions are calculated only on completed, non-refunded purchases
- Fees: Any transaction, processing, or transfer fees charged by the payment provider are deducted from the payout amount and are the responsibility of the affiliate

What You Can and Cannot Claim
Affiliates must represent Checkout Risk Snapshot accurately and in line with its intended use.
This protects both affiliates and customers.
You MAY say
