GearUP Affiliate FAQ

Who is the program for?

GearUP Affiliate is for creators and community organizers who want to share GearUP with an audience. Joining gives you a personal promotion link and code, Promotion Guides, brand assets, and 1-on-1 support. Eligible new users may receive an exclusive discount with your code.

Free memberships are planned for all ambassadors but are not available yet.

How do I join?

On the website

  1. Open the GearUP website. Choose Affiliate > GearUP for Windows in the navigation, or Affiliate in the footer.
  2. Select Get My Link & Code. Sign in or create a GearUP account if prompted.

No client download is required to join on the website.

In GearUP for Windows

  1. Open the client. If you haven't installed it, get it from the GearUP for Windows page.
  2. Open Affiliate and select Get My Link & Code. Sign in or create a GearUP account if prompted.

After joining, copy your personal link or code from your Affiliate page and share it with your audience.

Use the same GearUP account on the website and in the Windows client to access the same Affiliate ID, link, code, and balance.

If you have a separate web affiliate account, continue through the existing web account entry. It remains independent of your GearUP account; accounts, balances, and earnings are not merged automatically.

You can review Affiliate FAQs before joining; reading them is optional, not an extra joining step.

How does commission work?

  • Earn up to 70% commission on a referred new user's first paid subscription. Your actual rate appears under My Commission on your Affiliate page; 70% is a maximum, not a guaranteed rate.
  • Renewals and purchases made using your own account or device do not earn commission, even if your link or code is used.
  • Attribution can come from your link or code; the customer does not need both. A qualifying first payment made using only your code can earn commission.
  • Logins, link clicks, code entry without payment, and boosting alone do not earn commission.
  • Commission from a qualifying first payment is credited 30 calendar days after payment. Check Pending Balance and Available Balance on your Affiliate page. Pending commission is not available for withdrawal.

When can I withdraw?

  • Request a withdrawal once your Available Balance reaches $30 and you meet the program's withdrawal conditions. You can withdraw at most once per month.
  • Select Withdraw on your Affiliate page, choose PayPal or Payoneer, and link the corresponding receiving account.
  • Complete any required profile information when making your first withdrawal, not when joining.
  • Use My Records to check your withdrawal status. A submitted request is not a confirmed payout.

How does my code work?

  • New users only: Each new user can apply your code once.
  • Plan discounts: Eligible new users may receive discounts on quarterly or annual subscriptions. Monthly subscriptions have no promotion-code discount.
  • Discount rates: Check the quarterly and annual rates shown on your Affiliate page. Rates vary by region and are not a guaranteed global offer.
  • Regional eligibility: A code from a higher-discount region cannot be used in a lower-discount region. For other regions, availability is confirmed at checkout.
  • Renaming: You can rename your code once. The old name then becomes invalid for new use, but balance earned through it remains in your account.
  • Code entry: The Code/Coupon walkthrough shows the entry location in the client, not the Affiliate rules. The eligibility, discount, and commission rules are those in this FAQ.

Where can I get help and promotion materials?

All ambassadors can get 1-on-1 support. Use Join Our Discord at the bottom of your Affiliate page and contact a staff member. You can also open the GearUP community on Discord.

Promotion Guides on your Affiliate page cover long-form videos, short-form videos, live streams, communities, and social posts.

  • GearUP Brand Assets: Logos, product images, and technology introductions. Ensure your creative reflects current program terms; older materials may contain outdated offers.
  • GearUP Affiliate Content Guide: GearUP's selling points, promotion techniques, and audience engagement tips.

Create content based on your real experience: show the connection issue, demonstrate how you use GearUP, and place your link or code where viewers can find it. Avoid guaranteed performance, discount, or earnings claims.
