Important
Semrush's own affiliate page (via Impact.com) describes a tiered per-sale commission of roughly $100-$450 depending on product and plan level, plus $10 per free trial — not the flat $200 figure this file previously carried, which appears to be an outdated or third-party-simplified number. 120-day last-click cookie and EFT/PayPal payout on a monthly (27-day lock, 21-day-after-lock) cycle are now confirmed on the official page. Minimum payout, clawback policy, and whether you must be a customer remain unpublished.

What you would be selling
A flat $200 payout per referred customer on Semrush's SEO platform, enrolled through Impact, two products to promote.
Semrush is one brand with 2 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.

Apply link https://semrush.com/partners/affiliate/ returned 404 on 27 September 2026 and was removed. The programme may have moved; the page now points at the route we do know.
Apply link found on semrush.com's own navigation on 27 September 2026, under a link reading "Affiliate Program", and the page it opens describes the programme.
On 27 September 2026, fetched https://www.semrush.com/lp/affiliate-program/en/ directly and found it describes a tiered per-sale commission (roughly $100-$450 depending on product/plan) plus $10 per trial, a 120-day last-click cookie, EFT/PayPal payout, a monthly cycle (27-day transaction lock then 21 days to pay), a self-referral ban, and Impact.com-based application/approval (~2-4 business days). This supersedes the earlier flat-$200 figure, which was not confirmed on an official page. Minimum payout, clawback policy, and customer-status requirement remain unpublished on this page.
On September 27, 2026, re-checked https://www.semrush.com/lp/affiliate-program/en/ and its FAQ text directly. Confirmed the commission is a one-time payment per sale or trial rather than a recurring share tied to how long the customer stays subscribed. Confirmed the approval-time wording: normally about two working days to review an application, sometimes longer, with no individual feedback given for denials. The page also mentions a quarterly loyalty bonus of $200 to $1,500 on top of per-sale commissions, based on the affiliate's sales-tier performance, noted here as an unfiled bonus rather than the base commission. Minimum payout threshold, whether affiliates must be existing customers, and clawback or refund treatment of paid commissions still have no stated answer anywhere on the official page, so those three mechanics rows stay null with this same page cited as the source checked.
On September 27, 2026, checked the same official page for any discount or bonus given to the referred customer rather than the affiliate. The FAQ states that affiliates may not misrepresent the free trial as a coupon or reference discounts that do not exist, and no separate customer-facing discount or incentive is described anywhere on the page. Nothing published tells the customer what they receive beyond the ordinary free trial or paid plan, so the customer-incentive field is left blank with this page cited as the one checked.
