What you keep
75%of the commission is yours
You keep 75% of the commission the brand pays on each sale. Founding members keep 100% for their first 12 months and 85% after that.
Commission rates are set by each brand. When you make a link, you see what you'd earn before you copy it.
Which sales are yours
A sale is yours when a shopper buys through your post or one of your links. If they share your link with a friend and the friend buys, it's still yours. Shoppers pay the same price they would buying direct.
When you're paid
You're paid for a sale once the brand's network has paid GearCred for it and the return window has closed. That can take a month or two after the sale. Payouts start at $25.
Sponsor deals stay yours
If you already have your own link or code with a brand, tag that gear with it: under the match, tap Use my own link or code. Sales through it are paid to you by the brand. GearCred earns you money on the rest of the gear in the post.
