The terms that decide whether you get paid

Paid whenReferred customer signs up and converts to paid subscription
Important
Popular tool with designer audience. Commission rate (20%) is published and consistent across the site, but cookie window, payout schedule/minimum/method, approval and self-referral rules are not published anywhere public — those sit behind the signed-in /account/affiliation dashboard, which this research could not access.
Cookie/attribution window, payment schedule, minimum payout, payout method, approval time and self-referral policy are all undisclosed publicly; only visible after signing in to the affiliate dashboard.

What you would be selling

A popular designer-tool brand with a publicly stated 20% commission, but the operational terms (cookie window, payout mechanics, approval) are undisclosed outside the signed-in affiliate dashboard — the headline rate is real, the fine print isn't public.

Coolors is one brand with 4 products, bought by different people. What one converted customer is worth cannot be worked out for any of them: that needs a rate, a plan price and a commission window, and this program does not publish all three.

Coolors Affiliate Program: coolors.co/affiliates
Program existence verified August 23, 2026
Attribution window, payout terms and approval time researched on August 26, 2026.
How this programme compares to its rivals was written on August 26, 2026, from the verified terms above.
Corrected 27 August 2026: payout had read "20% commission on every purchase", a figure no source supports and which every other field in this record contradicts (rate is unset; youGetNote, honest and alsoCheck all state the rate is not published). Restated to match what was actually found.
Apply link found on coolors.co's own navigation on 27 September 2026, under a link reading "Affiliate", and the page it opens describes the programme.
Re-checked 27 September 2026: coolors.co/affiliates and coolors.co/pricing both state "earn a 20% commission on every purchase" for anyone with a blog, website, email list or social media accounts. This directly contradicts the prior 26 August note claiming the rate was unpublished; payout, the payout description and youGetNote corrected back to 20% with this citation. Attribution window, payment schedule, minimum payout, payout method, approval process and self-referral policy remain unpublished on any public page — they appear to live behind the signed-in /account/affiliation dashboard, which was not accessible in this research; all twelve mechanics rows checked and left null with read/source noting this.
Read, and not published
Coolors’s own material was read on these and says nothing. That is the answer: a program that does not state a term is not bound by one.

The re-verification note

We read Coolors's terms on 2026-08-22. Programs change a rate, a cookie window or a payment threshold without announcing it — we re-read them and send one note a week saying what moved.

One note a week, every figure dated and linked to its source. Unsubscribe in one click; we never sell or share the address.
