The affiliate program
Reserved for adult customers, or emancipated minors. An account created through the free video does not qualify.
The affiliate program pays a commission on sales of the app that you refer. It starts at 30% and goes up to 75%, across ten tiers. You manage everything from the Referrals tab of your account area, on the website.
Before you start
Section titled “Before you start”- Be a customer, with a full account. The affiliate program is not open to people who have not bought the app.
- Be an adult, or an emancipated minor. A required checkbox asks you to confirm this: “I declare that I am of full age, or an emancipated minor.”
- Have an account with the payment provider, which gives you the ID to paste into your account area. The provider pays the commissions, not the app.
Create your link
Section titled “Create your link”- Open the Referrals tab of your account area on the website.
- In “Create your affiliate link”, paste your ID into the “Your Bonzai ID” field. If you do not have one, the Create an account and Find it in my settings links, under the field, open Bonzai.
- Choose the end of your address in “Your custom link”: lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens only.
- Check “I declare that I am of full age, or an emancipated minor.”, then click Create my link.
- Copy one of the four links offered — Home page, Pitch page, Vibe Creators - FR community, or Vibe Creator - EN community, for an English-speaking audience — with the Copy button. One of them carries the badge “highest payoff.”
Your Discord rank appears as soon as you create the link, and it changes as your completed sales add up.
Edit your link
Section titled “Edit your link”The Edit my link button reopens the form, so you can fix your Bonzai ID or change the end of your address. Changing this address replaces your link: the links you have already shared stop redirecting. You must check the “I declare that I am of full age, or an emancipated minor.” box again before you click Save.
The tier ladder
Section titled “The tier ladder”A sale that is collected and kept is worth one experience point. The point is earned 14 days after payment, once the buyer’s refund period has passed. Until then, the sale is pending: your account area shows it as “XP pending,” and it does not count toward your rank yet. Your own order earns no points. The total is recalculated continuously: a full refund of an order takes its point back, and it can drop you down a rank. A partial refund keeps the order and its point; the commission is adjusted to the refunded part.
The rate that applies is the rate of your tier at the moment the sale is collected, not the moment the visitor clicked.
The ten ranks also exist as roles on the community Discord, from Silver 1 to Onyx. See The VibeStarter Discord community.
How a sale is credited to you
Section titled “How a sale is credited to you”- The last click wins. If the visitor clicked several links, the last one counts.
- Tracking lasts 30 days after the click.
- It is tied to the device and the browser. A click on a phone does not link to a purchase made on a computer. The most common trap: a link opened in Discord’s built-in browser, then a purchase made in the usual browser. Advise your visitors to open your link in their real browser.
- It requires the visitor’s consent. A page asks them “Do you accept being referred by…?”, with Accept and continue and Refuse and continue. If they refuse, the sale is not credited.
- The visitor’s price does not change. The page says so: “without changing your price.” An affiliate link gives no discount.
What does not earn a commission
Section titled “What does not earn a commission”- The Duo offer does not earn any commission.
- Orders fully refunded or canceled are removed from the count. A partial refund reduces the commission for the payment concerned.
- Orders with an unpaid installment are also removed.
- Paying off the balance of an overdue order earns no commission: it is a separate payment, outside the affiliate program. Commissions on installments already collected stay yours. The rule is in article 9 sexies.4 bis of the Terms of Service, effective October 27, 2026.
- Subscriptions and credit packs are not affiliate sales.
- A payment link shared directly. Only an affiliate link copied from your account area credits the sale. A link that goes straight to the payment page, without passing through your link, does not credit you.
How you are paid
Section titled “How you are paid”The provider pays the commissions into the account whose ID you pasted. The amounts shown in your personal account area are for information only: the Terms of Service state that the provider’s count is the authoritative one.
The full rules of the program are in article 9 of the VibeStarter Terms of Service, including prohibited practices. Breaking them can lead to the loss of your commissions and of your place in the program.
Frequently asked questions
Section titled “Frequently asked questions”Can I have a link without having bought VibeStarter? No. The program is reserved for customers.
Does the person I referred get a discount? No. The price is the same with or without a link.
Why are my commissions not all the same amount? Because the sales differ: paid in full or in installments, the buyer’s country, any refunds, and the tier reached at the time of collection.
I share the public Discord invite: is the sale credited to me? Only if you use one of the two affiliate links dedicated to the community, offered in your account area: one for the French server, one for the English server. An ordinary Discord invite carries no credit.
I made a sale and my rank did not change. That is normal for 14 days: the experience point is earned once the buyer’s refund period has passed. Your rank updates automatically at that point.
My rank went down. A full refund of an order removes the matching experience point. The rank is recalculated from the sales that were collected and kept. A partial refund does not remove that point.
My account area shows “Your affiliate link is closed.” VibeStarter has closed your participation in the program. Your link no longer credits any sale, and it cannot be recreated from your account area. A person who opened it can still buy, at the same price, without a referrer.
