Why Promote Fourthwall?

  • Free Credit – You get free sample credit or money to order products from your shop when you refer other creators. Creators that order samples sell more than those that don’t

FAQs

How do I get my referral link? 

Your referral link can be found in your account dashboard.

When do I receive my commissions? 

Affiliate Plus commissions will be added to your account balance weekly on Sundays, which you can cash out at the end of each month. You will need to reach a minimum of $25 to receive your commissions. Standard Affiliates & General Referers receive their sample credit immediately.

What about people I've previously referred?

These terms will only apply starting March 17, 2025. Your referral benefits will update automatically once you reach a new tier. We will not retroactively apply credit or commissions for creators you've referred before then.

How can I track my referrals? 

General Referrals and Standard Affiliates can see how much they've earned by viewing their Sample Budgets.

Affiliate Plus members can track referrals by heading to your dashboard, under the “Referrals” tab. 

What happens if someone forgets to use my referral link? 

As of right now, referrals must use your link at sign-up for commissions to be credited to your account. If you believe there is an error, please contact support@fourthwall.com.
