2 sales a week at ~$130 average = about $168 / month at the 15% standard rate, or ~$200 / month at the Founding 18%. Every additional sale compounds monthly.

You already film your dog. You already post the reveal when the framed print arrives on the doorstep. Get paid for what you're already doing. We give you a memorable link, we track every sale it drives for 30 days after the click, and we wire your commission to PayPal on the 1st of every month. That's the whole thing.

Founding Creator tier — first 100 spots

The first 100 approved creators lock in 18% commission, permanently, on every order from their link. Once the 100 spots are taken, the standard 15% rate applies to everyone after. The founding rate stays yours for the life of the program — no expiration, no clawback.

Founding Creators also get one free framed print credit each month — a real print, shipped to you or straight to a follower's door. Use it for a giveaway on camera, an unboxing, or a thank-you. Yours whether you spend a dollar with us or not.

How it works

  1. Apply below. Takes about two minutes.
  2. We approve you within a few days (usually same day) and email you your creator link — a memorable URL like petportrait.io/c/your-handle.
  3. Share it wherever you post: TikTok bio, Instagram link-in-bio, YouTube descriptions, blog reviews. The reveal moment is the video — the link is where it lands.
  4. We track every purchase from your link for 30 days after a viewer clicks.
  5. You get paid 18% (or 15% at the standard rate) of every order, monthly, on the 1st, via PayPal. First payout runs the month after your first sale.

Why creators like this program

  • Real cash, not store credit. Sent via PayPal, monthly.
  • Every product counts. Digital downloads, canvas prints, framed prints — commission runs on the whole order, not just one SKU.
  • The reveal sells itself. Custom pet portraits are inherently visual and emotional — you don't need a script. Your reaction is the content.
  • Free to try means free to demo. Preview a portrait in under a minute, on camera, no card required. Your viewers can do the same.
  • No exclusivity. Promote us alongside anything else you promote. We're not the jealous type.

FAQ

How and when do I get paid?
PayPal, monthly, on the 1st. Payout covers commission earned in the prior calendar month. No minimum threshold. If your PayPal address changes, email us before the 25th of the month or the payout runs to the old one.

What counts as a conversion?
Any completed purchase within 30 days of a viewer clicking your link. Attribution is stored in the visitor's browser (localStorage) — cross-device attribution isn't tracked. The last creator link a visitor clicked wins.

Can I use my own link to buy for myself?
Self-purchases don't earn commission (we match on the email you signed up with vs. the email used at checkout). It's a courtesy discount for you, but it's not a payout you can farm.

What if a customer refunds?
If a refund happens before we've paid you, the conversion is removed. If it happens after you've been paid, we adjust the following month's payout down to reconcile.

How do I see my stats?
For now, we email you a monthly summary — clicks, conversions, commission earned, and your running unpaid balance. A self-serve dashboard is on the roadmap, but the monthly email keeps things simple while we grow the program.

Can I combine your program with a promo code for my audience?
Yes — we run a standard WELCOME10 code that anyone can use on their first order. It doesn't affect your commission. If your audience is significant and you'd like your own code (e.g. YOURHANDLE15), email us and we'll set one up.

How do the founding slots work?
First-come, first-approved. As applications come in we review, approve, and count. Once we hit 100 approved Founding Creators, later joiners come in at the standard 15%. Founding rates are locked for the life of the program — even if we ever raise or lower the standard rate later, yours stays put.

US tax stuff?
If you're US-based and earn more than $600 in a calendar year, we'll ask you to complete a W-9 before your next payout so we can send you a 1099-NEC in January. International creators: you're responsible for reporting income in your own jurisdiction.

Can I promote you alongside competitors?
Yes. No exclusivity. Ever.

What's off-limits?
Don't make claims we can't back up (e.g. "the exact same brush a human painter uses" — the portraits are AI-generated, we're transparent about that everywhere on the site). Don't bid on our brand name on paid search. Don't spam. Otherwise: run it your way. All posts featuring your creator link must disclose the paid partnership per FTC guidance (#ad, #sponsored, or the platform's native paid-partnership tag).

Any other questions, email hello@petportrait.io and we'll answer within one business day.
