FAQ

Do you have an affiliate payout schedule template?

Yes. Use this generator to create a payout schedule template (Net-30 or monthly) and copy/paste the policy text into your affiliate terms.

What payout schedule is best for SaaS affiliate programs?

Monthly payouts after the refund window closes is a common default because it is predictable and reduces disputes.

What does Net-30 mean for affiliate payouts?

Net-30 means you pay commissions 30 days after the end of the period (or after the conversion), often to ensure refunds/chargebacks have time to settle.

Can I use this as a Google Sheets or Excel payout schedule template?

Yes. Generate your policy text here, then track payouts in a simple spreadsheet (Google Sheets/Excel) alongside your payout report.

Should I use a minimum payout threshold?

Yes, usually. A threshold like $25–$100 keeps payouts manageable and reduces fees. If you set it to 0, you’ll pay out more frequently.

How should refunds affect commissions?

A simple rule is: refunded payments do not earn commission. If a commission was already paid, deduct it from the next payout.

Should payouts be automated?

Early on, keep payouts manual. Automate tracking and reporting first, then decide if automated payouts are worth the complexity.
