For subscription SaaS, affiliates should earn commissions on recurring payments - not just the initial sale. But tracking renewals manually is impossible at scale.
Hours wasted matching payments to affiliates every month
Affiliates leave when commissions aren't paid for renewals
Wrong commission amounts damage trust and cost money
Can't manage 100+ affiliates with manual tracking
LinkJolt listens to Stripe/Paddle webhooks for invoice.payment_succeeded events. When a subscription renews, we automatically:
Stripe/Paddle webhook triggers when customer pays their monthly/annual subscription
Lookup the affiliate who referred this customer from the original conversion
Apply your recurring commission rate (same as original or custom percentage)
Generate a new commission record linked to the renewal payment
Label as "Payment #2", "Payment #3", etc. for complete visibility
Affiliate sees new commission in their dashboard immediately
Your SaaS Setup:
• Product: $99/month project management SaaS
• Recurring commission: 20% on all renewals
• Affiliate "Sarah" refers customer "TechCorp"
Month 1 (Initial Sale)
TechCorp signs up: $99
✓ Tracked automatically via webhook
Month 2 (Renewal #1)
TechCorp renews: $99
✓ Tracked automatically via webhook
Month 12 (Renewal #11)
TechCorp still active: $99
✓ Tracked automatically via webhook
100% automated - zero manual work required
Pay the same commission rate on renewals as the initial sale. Most common for SaaS.
Example:
Initial: 30% → Renewals: 30%
Set a different commission rate for recurring payments vs. initial sale.
Example:
Initial: 30% → Renewals: 15%
Set up once, earn forever. LinkJolt handles all subscription tracking via webhooks - no manual work required.
