For web designers and marketing partners
A chatbot affiliate program with 40% recurring commission.
Recommend the Off Hours website chatbot to small businesses and earn commission on their subscription payments, renewals included. It answers business questions and captures callback requests. This program pays you for referrals; the chatbot itself does not automate affiliate marketing campaigns.
The terms
Plainly, what you get paid
40% commission on every payment.
You earn 40% of what that customer pays, every month, at the same rate on day one and in year three: $11.60 on the $29 plan, $19.60 on the $49 plan, $39.60 on the $99 plan, $78.80 on the $197 plan.
Recurring, not one time.
This is not a single bounty paid when someone signs up. The commission is recurring: it pays out on every payment they make, renewals included.
Lifetime, with no step down.
There is no twelve month cap and no reduction after the first year. The lifetime commission keeps paying for as long as that customer stays subscribed.
30 day cookie duration.
A click on your affiliate link is remembered for 30 days, so you are still credited if the person goes away, thinks it over, and comes back within the month.
$20 minimum payout.
Commission is held for 30 days first, because customers can refund inside 30 days and we only pay out of money we have kept. After that, payouts are created on the 1st and 15th and paid on the 14th and 28th.
You are told when a referral leaves.
Commission accrues per payment, so it stops when the payments stop. We email you the customer, the plan and the end date rather than letting the number quietly drop.
| Plan | Monthly price | Your 40% commission |
|---|---|---|
| Minimum | $29 | $11.60 |
| Standard | $49 | $19.60 |
| Growth | $99 | $39.60 |
| Scale | $197 | $78.80 |
Illustrations use the listed subscription price before tax. Commission requires a correctly attributed referral and a cleared payment. A free trial creates no paid commission. Refunds and chargebacks reverse commission, and future earnings stop when payments stop. Read the affiliate terms for attribution, consent and payout conditions.
A worked example
Ten customers on Minimum
Ten referred customers paying the listed Minimum price produce $116.00 in monthly commission. That continues only while all ten keep paying that price. Cancellations, refunds and plan changes affect the total. This is an illustration, not an earnings forecast.
Who this suits: people who build or maintain websites for small businesses. It installs as a WordPress plugin, or as one line of HTML on Wix, Squarespace, Shopify, Webflow and hand-built sites.
For example, a designer maintaining a plumber's site can try the live demo, check the client's questions against the setup and knowledge guide, and recommend a plan matching their traffic. Disclose the affiliate relationship when making that recommendation and use the approved referral link so the purchase can be attributed.

Questions
The affiliate program, answered
- What commission does the Off Hours affiliate program pay?
- 40% of every payment a customer you referred makes: $11.60 on the $29 plan, $19.60 on the $49 plan, $39.60 on the $99 plan, $78.80 on the $197 plan, every month. The rate is the same on their first payment and on their thirtieth.
- Is the commission recurring or one time?
- Recurring. It is not a one-off bounty paid when someone signs up. You earn 40% of every payment they make, including every renewal, for as long as they remain a customer.
- Is it a lifetime commission, or does the rate step down?
- Lifetime, and the rate never steps down. There is no twelve month cap and no reduction after the first year, which is where most recurring programs quietly stop paying.
- Will it slow down my client's website?
- The widget loads asynchronously and the AI replies are generated on our server. It still downloads code and uses browser resources, so there can be some performance impact. Test it on your client's actual pages and devices before launch.
- What is the cookie duration?
- 30 days. A click on your link is remembered for 30 days, so you are still credited if the person goes away, thinks about it, and comes back within the month.
- What is the minimum payout, and when am I paid?
- The minimum balance is $20. Commission is held for 30 days first, because customers can ask for a refund in their first 30 days and we only pay out of money we have actually kept. After the hold, payouts are created on the 1st and the 15th and paid on the 14th and the 28th.
- What happens if my referral cancels or asks for a refund?
- Commission accrues per payment, so it stops when the payments stop. If a referral cancels or lets the subscription lapse, no further commission accrues. If a payment is refunded or charged back during the hold, that commission is reversed rather than paid. We email you when a referral churns, with the plan and the end date.
- Who is this affiliate program a good fit for?
- People who already build or maintain websites for small businesses: WordPress freelancers and agencies, web designers, and local marketing consultants. The product installs as a WordPress plugin or as one line of HTML on Wix, Squarespace, Shopify, Webflow and hand-built sites, so a single client of any kind can be set up in a couple of minutes.
- How do I join, and is approval automatic?
- Applications are reviewed by a person rather than approved automatically, so there is a short wait. Apply through the affiliate signup link on this page. There is no cost to join and no minimum traffic requirement.
