Creator program FAQs

What is the Automattic Creator Program?

The Automattic Creator Program is a single program that gives you access to affiliate commissions and paid partnerships across Automattic’s product lineup, including WordPress.com, WooCommerce, Jetpack, and more.

It brings together affiliate and influencer opportunities in one program, giving creators flexibility in how they collaborate and earn.

Who can join?

The program is open to creators of all sizes, including bloggers, educators, YouTubers, podcasters, social media creators, review sites, and comparison sites.

There’s no minimum audience size required to apply. We review applications based on content quality, audience fit, and alignment with our brands.

What’s the difference between the Affiliate Program and the Influencer Program?

The Automattic Creator Program includes two ways to earn.

Affiliates earn commissions when someone signs up for a product using their referral link within a 30-day tracking window.

Influencers collaborate with our brands on paid partnerships, sponsored content, and video integrations.

Depending on your content and channels, you may be eligible to participate in both.

How much can I earn?

Affiliates earn commissions for qualified referrals. For example, WordPress.com hosting referrals can earn up to $300 per sale, and many products offer 30–40% commissions. You can view our full commission rates, which may change over time.

Influencers earn flat fees for paid partnerships, based on the scope of the collaboration and audience reach.

Some creators participate in both programs to diversify their income.

How do payouts work for affiliates and influencers?

Affiliates earn commissions for qualified referrals and can track clicks, conversions, and payouts in their creator dashboard. Payments are issued on a regular schedule based on approved conversions.

Influencer partnerships are paid directly through the creator dashboard according to the agreed campaign terms.

How long does it take to sign up?

Applying takes just a few minutes.

You’ll submit basic information about your website and/or channels, and our team will review your application. If approved, you’ll receive access to your creator dashboard shortly after.

How does the Automattic Creator Program compare to other affiliate and influencer programs?

Many affiliate programs focus on promoting a single product or brand. The Automattic Creator Program gives you access to commissions across hosting, ecommerce, security, and site tools — all through one partnership and one dashboard.

Because these are established products powering millions of sites, creators tend to see stronger conversions and more trust from their audiences than when promoting newer or less familiar tools.

The program also supports both affiliate commissions and paid partnerships, so you’re not limited to a single way of earning. Creators also receive hands-on support, resources, and guidance from our team to help them grow their success in the program.

Where can I learn more about Automattic products and promotion tips?

Our Knowledge Base includes product guides, promotion tips, and program FAQs designed to help creators get started and grow their earnings.

You’ll find step-by-step resources for both affiliate marketing and influencer partnerships, whether you’re new or experienced.

What’s the difference between the Automattic Creator Program and Automattic for Agencies?

The Automattic Creator Program is designed for creators who earn by promoting products through content, referrals, or sponsorships.

Automattic for Agencies is built for agencies managing client sites and includes tools like bulk pricing, client management, and profit-sharing.

You can join both programs, as long as you follow each program’s guidelines.
