Customer incentive

Referred customer purchases SiteGround hosting plan directly. No promotional discount offered; value is standard plan features.

Important
Tiered commission structure incentivizes high volume but can be unpredictable month-to-month (some months hitting lower tier). 60-day conversion window is standard but means abandoned carts generate no revenue. Last-click attribution means only final referral source credited; multiple touchpoints from same customer get single commission. No cookie lifetime specified but likely standard 60-90 days. Commission tied to sale date, not customer lifetime; upgrades/renewals may not generate additional commission.
Tier structure resets monthly, so hitting 11+ sales one month then dropping below 6 the next month triggers tier drop (no guarantee of consistent higher rates). Last-click attribution disadvantages multi-touch referral strategies. Weekly payouts are fast, but high volume required for meaningful earnings (100+ monthly sales = $10,000+ gross commission). Exclusions or restrictions not published but likely exist (e.g., no private label resellers). Real-time reporting available but UI clarity not independently verified.
What you would be selling
A direct, volume-tiered flat $50–100+ per sale for a mainstream hosting brand, paid weekly, but strictly one-time — renewals earn nothing further.
SiteGround 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.

How this programme compares to its rivals was written on August 26, 2026, from the verified terms above.
Product descriptions rewritten on August 26, 2026.
September 27, 2026: siteground.com and world.siteground.com return an anti-bot captcha wall (/.well-known/sgcaptcha/) to both curl and automated fetch from this research environment, so the affiliate page and signup form could not be read first-hand on that date. The apply URL (https://world.siteground.com/affiliate/signup.htm) and the in-house (non-network) nature of the program were corroborated via UpPromote's third-party affiliate directory listing (uppromote.com/affiliate-program-directory/siteground/, read September 27, 2026), which links directly to that signup form and states SiteGround 'uses an in-house affiliate management software' rather than a third-party network. This is second-hand corroboration, not a first-hand read of SiteGround's own page; enroll/network values were already consistent with this and are left unchanged.
September 27, 2026 (follow-up): further attempts to fill minimum payout, clawback, and where-it-pays via SiteGround's own KB pages (siteground.com/kb/commission_payments, siteground.com/tutorials/affiliate/payouts/) were also captcha-blocked — fetch tool returned no content from either URL, and a Google-cache attempt likewise returned no substantive page content. Third-party directories (Post Affiliate Pro, creator-hero.com) offer paraphrased claims (e.g. 'no minimum payout', 'paid via PayPal/bank transfer') but explicitly do not quote SiteGround's own terms text verbatim, so per sourcing rules these are not treated as confirmed and mechanics rows for minimum payout/clawback/where it pays are left unchanged (null) rather than filled from aggregator paraphrase.
