Best for
✔ SEO and Blog content aimed at b2b & tools buyers
✔ Audiences that stay subscribed — the commission keeps paying
✔ Any market — the program accepts worldwide traffic
Why promote this
▸ 30% recurring, tracked through FirstPromoter.
▸ Recurring revenue compounds: each retained referral keeps earning after the first month.
▸ Fits high-intent content where the reader decides in the same session.
Avoid if
✖ Your audience does not sit in the B2B & Tools space
✖ You need instant approval and payouts under Not disclosed
✖ You have no owned audience to promote to
Main drawback

Earnings depend on retention — if referred customers churn early, the recurring tail disappears.
