How the second tier works

You refer someone who becomes a Zenler affiliate. From then on, Zenler pays you 5% connected to their activity, separately from the 40% recurring you earn on your own referrals.

Worked example

Say an average Zenler 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 $5 = $100 a month
  • Total: $490 a month, repeating while those accounts stay active

Pros

  • Tier 1 pays 40% recurring.
  • A real second tier exists, which most creator tools do not offer.
  • Commissions repeat while the account stays active.
  • Rates come from the program's own page.

Cons

  • Legacy partners only. If you joined before December 2025 you keep 40% plus 5%. The current program has no second tier.
  • Cookie length is not published.

Who it fits

Zenler suits you if your audience already needs course platform 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 40% recurring first tier alone.
