Important
30% lifetime recurring, uncapped, is one of the stronger offers in this batch since most programs cap at 12 months, with a 90-day cookie and a $25 minimum payout both confirmed on the official page. Self-referral rules, the customer requirement, and clawback terms are not published, leaving some mechanics unclear. PartnerStack enrollment adds a minor extra step, and 2 products give some content flexibility.

What you would be selling
30% uncapped lifetime recurring on Thinkific's course platform, enrolled through PartnerStack, two products to promote.
Thinkific 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.
Not published
The commission has no stated end, so it has no total.

Attribution window, payout terms and approval time researched on August 26, 2026.
Comparison notes rewritten on August 26, 2026.
Re-verified top-level fields (rate, network, the application link, payout) and mechanics rows directly against thinkific.com/affiliates on September 27, 2026; self-referral policy, customer requirement, and clawback terms remain unpublished on the official page and the linked support article could not be retrieved (blocked by a bot challenge), so those rows stay null with read date and source recorded.
Folded the Plus-plan flat $150/month exception, previously sitting in an unfiled entry that improperly carried read and source fields, into the commission-summary fields, since that is where the commission-basis answer already lives.
Confirmed on September 27, 2026 by reading thinkific.com/affiliates directly that the page states no discount, bonus, or other incentive for the referred customer, so the customer-incentive field is recorded as unpublished with the read date and source attached rather than left blank without evidence.
Read, and not published
Thinkific’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.
