Affiliates
Refer a founder. Earn 20% of what they pay, for as long as they stay.
You are paid every month a founder you referred stays. No membership, no minimum, just an email. Whop tracks the referral and pays you.
20%
of every payment, while they stay
How it works
Three steps, then you’re paid.
01
Get your link
Press the button above. Members get it at once. Anyone else gets it by email from Whop, our payment partner, which sets up a free account for your payouts.
02
Send a founder
Anyone who wants to record what they're making. If they sign up within thirty days, they count as yours. They get 7 days free, and nothing is taken until day 8.
03
Get paid
Each time they pay, your share lands in your Whop account thirty days later, for as long as they stay.
What each plan pays you
The rate follows the plan they choose.
A share of every payment, not only the first. Founder, Series and Studio pay the same rate. Company Record, our team plan, is set up with us directly, so it isn’t part of this.
Worked example: a founder on Series at $79.99 a month pays you $16 a month. Ten of them is $160 a month.

The rules
Say what it does. Send people who would use it.
01
Describe underway honestly: it asks about your day out loud and turns your answers into a short finished video or podcast. 7 days free on any plan, then from $29.99 a month, cancel any time before.
02
Send people building something who mean to document it: founders, makers, artists, shop owners. Not people who just want a video editor.
03
Speak from your own use if you have it. Don't promise features that aren't on the site, or call it a clip tool or an editor.
04
No paid ads using our name, no coupon or deal sites, no emailing people who didn't ask, and no using your own link to sign yourself up.
05
A refund inside the thirty-day hold cancels that commission. Rates can change; existing referrals keep their rate.
06
You need a free Whop account to be paid and must be eighteen or over. Whop's earnings terms apply.
Questions
- Do I need to be an underway member?
- No. Members find their link on the Account tab; anyone else gets it from the button above. The rates are the same.
- Where does the money go?
- Into your Whop balance thirty days after each payment clears, then to a bank account, PayPal or Coinbase. Whop pays out, not us.
- What if they arrive on underway.life rather than on Whop?
- Your link can point at any page here. We remember who sent them for thirty days and pass it to checkout.
- Can I have a promo code for my audience?
- Ask us at hello@underway.life. A code goes in the box at checkout, alongside your link.
- Is there a limit?
- No cap on referrals or on earnings, and no minimum to start.
