What a referral pays is set by what they buy.
The rate is fixed on the day the referral qualifies and it does not change afterwards, so a referral is worth knowing in advance.
Minimum payout
NZ$50. Payouts run monthly and every balance at or above the minimum goes.
Paid once, per customer
You are paid the same amount however long they stay.
What they get
30 extra free days on their first subscription. Added to the end of their first subscription's first billing period, after any free trial.
Domains, SSL and add-ons
Domains, SSL certificates and add-ons earn inside a qualifying plan rather than on their own, so a customer who takes a domain along with a plan is a full referral.
New Zealand dollars
Every figure on this page is in New Zealand dollars, because that is the currency the programme pays out in, and it reaches your account unconverted wherever you live.

- Day 33Earned
They are still a customer 30 days later. The referral qualifies and NZ$75 is added to your balance.
- Month endPaid
The monthly payout runs and NZ$75 goes to your account, because the balance is at or above the NZ$50 minimum.

Everything that earns you a commission.
Referrals from your own audience
Every signup that reaches us through your own link, from somebody you introduced, earns you the commission.
Referrals we can verify
Signups that arrive the way signups normally arrive go straight through. An unusual burst from one connection is looked at by a person first, and your payout follows as soon as they have looked.
Customers who stay 30 days
A referral turns into money once the customer has been with us 30 days, and your dashboard shows you the day each one is due to qualify so you always know what is coming.
Channels you built yourself
Newsletters, videos, posts, courses and client work are exactly what this programme rewards, and they are what earns the commission on a KapsuleHost referral.
Placements that introduce us
The commission is for bringing somebody new to us, so the placements it rewards are the ones a reader sees while they are still deciding.
Claims a reader can check
Everything on this site is checkable, so anything you can point a reader at on our own pages is yours to promote.
The parts people ask about.
Ask Us AnythingAs many as you need. Each one carries its own campaign name, and the dashboard reports clicks, signups and qualified referrals per code, so you can tell a newsletter from a video description.
Anyone can join. Affiliate accounts are separate from customer accounts, so you can sign up today and start sharing your link straight away.
At the click. Your link stays credited to you for 30 days on Starter and 60 days on Partner, and if they sign up inside that time the referral is yours.
The commission is set by the product class they bought and it is paid once, so it is fixed on the day the referral qualifies and stays yours whatever they do with their plan afterwards.
Connect a payout account in the affiliate dashboard and the monthly run sends every balance at or above NZ$50 straight to it. Connect one whenever it suits you and every commission you have earned is waiting there.
Signing up activates your account on the spot and mints your first code, so you can have a link out within a minute. Your account is live from that moment and every click it earns counts from then on.
It is https://kapsulehost.com/go/ with your own code on the end, and your dashboard shows you the whole link with a button that copies it. Reach Partner and you can replace the code with a name you choose, which is the one people actually remember and type.
Once the customer you sent is past the qualifying period and past the window in which their purchase could be refunded, the commission is confirmed and it is yours to keep. Your dashboard shows that date for every referral, so you always know which ones have settled. A refund inside that window returns the commission to us.
Client work is exactly what this rewards. Build, host or manage a site for a client, have the client hold their own KapsuleHost account, and it earns the full commission for what they bought. The commission is for an introduction, so it follows the accounts you bring us rather than the ones you hold yourself.
Every channel you built yourself: newsletters, videos, posts, courses, reviews, comparisons, community answers and client work. Everything on our public pages is yours to quote, which keeps what you say and what we honour identical. Paid search is yours for your own brand and your own content, with our own name kept for our own campaigns, and paid traffic lands on your content first, where your reader decides.
