Cloudways

Cloudways offers a high-performance managed cloud hosting platform that simplifies the deployment and management of web applications. The Cloudways affiliate program is designed for flexibility, providing partners with three distinct commission structures: Slab, Hybrid, and Custom. The Slab model is performance-based, allowing affiliates to earn up to $125 per sale based on the monthly volume of referrals. The Hybrid model offers a blend of a $30 upfront bounty per sale combined with a 7% lifetime recurring commission, making it ideal for those seeking long-term passive income.

Affiliates benefit from a generous 90-day cookie duration, ensuring that conversions are tracked accurately over an extended period. The program also features a two-tier reward system, where partners can earn a 7% commission on the sales generated by sub-affiliates they recruit. Cloudways provides a range of marketing materials, including banners, seasonal campaign assets, and dedicated affiliate managers to assist with strategy and optimization.

To qualify for a payout, commissions are approved once a referred customer has upgraded their account and paid at least two full invoices. Payments are issued via PayPal once a minimum threshold of $250 is reached, or via Wire Transfer for accounts earning over $1,000 per cycle. Alternatively, affiliates can choose to transfer earnings directly to their Cloudways account funds to cover their own hosting bills starting at a $100 threshold.
