Important
15% recurring for 12 months is a modest rate and duration compared to other SaaS recurring programs, capping earnings well before long-term customer value plays out. Direct enrollment is friction-free, but no cookie window or minimum payout is documented, leaving some terms unclear.
Medium confidence - Platform-dependent commission

What you would be selling

A modest, time-boxed recurring commission (15% for 12 months) for referring SaaS customers to a single payments/billing platform.

Paddle is one brand with 1 product, 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.

Paddle’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 Paddle'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.
