This page is about the WP Engine Affiliate Program. It covers only what WP Engine's own affiliate page states. It gives no verdicts and makes no income promises. Every number here comes from that page, so read it yourself before you apply, since terms can change.
What the WP Engine Affiliate Program is
WP Engine runs the WP Engine Affiliate Program. Its page gives commission figures for referred plan purchases. The program's own page is the source for every rule and rate in this article.
Commissions, as stated on WP Engine's affiliate page
WP Engine's affiliate page says Lite plan purchases earn $100 and other plans earn at least $200. Treat the figures as what the page states, not as a promise of what any affiliate will earn.
Referral credit window
WP Engine's affiliate page says affiliates get credit for referrals made within 180 days. That is the program's own credit window. For more, read what a cookie window is.
When commissions are paid
WP Engine's affiliate page says commissions are paid around the 20th of the month after a referral reaches 62 days. So a referral does not pay out right away. There is a wait, then a payment date. To see how payout terms work across programs, read how affiliate payouts are sent.
How to join: Everflow.io and application review
WP Engine's affiliate page says affiliates create an account with Everflow.io to join. That is the platform the page names for sign up. The page also says WP Engine reviews each application and notifies you when you are approved. So applying does not mean instant entry. You wait for the review, and the program tells you the result.
Other hosting affiliate programs to read about
You can read other hosting affiliate program pages on this site. See the Kinsta Hosting Affiliate Program and the Hostinger affiliate program. The SiteGround Hosting Affiliate Program has its own page too.
