How the second tier works

You refer someone who becomes a PureVPN affiliate. From then on, PureVPN pays you Yes, two-tier program (about 10%, third-party figure) connected to their activity, separately from the 100% of new monthly plans, 40% of other new plans, 35% lifetime on renewals you earn on your own referrals.

Worked example

Say an average PureVPN plan is $97 a month. You refer 10 paying accounts yourself and recruit 5 affiliates who each refer 4 paying accounts.

  • Tier 1: 10 accounts x $39 = $390 a month
  • Tier 2: 20 accounts through your recruits x $10 = $200 a month
  • Total: $590 a month, repeating while those accounts stay active

Pros

  • Tier 1 pays 100% of new monthly plans, 40% of other new plans, 35% lifetime on renewals.
  • A real second tier exists, which most tools do not offer.
  • Commissions repeat while the account stays active.
  • 90 day cookie gives slow buyers time to convert.

Cons

  • PureVPN's official page confirms the tier 1 rates, the 90-day cookie and that a two-tier program exists. The 10% second-tier rate only appears in third-party listings, so confirm it in your dashboard after approval.
  • Rates are third-party, not confirmed on an official page.

Who it fits

PureVPN suits you if your audience already needs vpn/security software and you can show the product in use. The second tier only matters if you also reach other affiliates, through a course, a community or a newsletter about making money online. If you never recruit affiliates, judge this program on its first tier alone.
