The terms that decide whether you get paid

Paid whenReferred user converts to a paid Readwise Reader subscription.
ApprovalNot published — applicants apply via a Typeform (readwise.typeform.com/to/idQKoaCD) and are individually contacted with a custom referral link rather than auto-approved
Important
33% per subscriber with no stated cap is a strong rate for a knowledge-management tool, and the 2x-length free trial for referred users should help conversion. Approval is manual (a Typeform application, individually reviewed) rather than instant, and attribution window, minimum payout, and payment frequency remain undisclosed.
Referred users get 60 days free (2x the standard 30-day trial), which may help conversion.

What you would be selling

A 33% per-subscriber commission with no stated cap, on a knowledge-management tool, through a manually-vetted PartnerStack application rather than instant signup.

Readwise 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.

Not published
The commission has no stated end, so it has no total.

Everything Readwise publishes about how the commission is earned and paid. A term shown as not researched is one Readwise does not publish, not one that does not apply.

How it pays

How this programme compares to its rivals was written on August 26, 2026, from the verified terms above.
Payout rate (33% per subscriber) confirmed and propagated from mechanics into payout/rate fields August 26, 2026 from docs.readwise.io/affiliates.
Mechanics rows checked against docs.readwise.io/affiliates on September 27, 2026: attribution window, payment delay/schedule, minimum payout, payout form, self-referral, customer requirement, clawback, and payment geography remain unpublished. Corrected the network claim — the page shows a direct Typeform application (readwise.typeform.com/to/idQKoaCD) with a manually issued custom link, no PartnerStack or self-serve network mentioned, so enroll/network fields and the referred-user trial length (60 days, not '2 months') were corrected accordingly.
Confirmed the customer incentive on September 27, 2026 from docs.readwise.io/affiliates: referred users receive two months of Readwise and Reader free (2x the standard trial), no credit card required. This fills the customer-incentive slot, which had no first-hand evidence on file until now. The two figures the page itself uses for this same trial, two months and sixty days, are stated together in the value rather than treated as a conflict.
Read, and not published
Readwise’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 Readwise's terms on 2026-08-24. 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.
