What is the Upwork Affiliate Program?
This is the program Upwork uses to pay people and companies that promote their products. When you make a sale for Upwork, they will send you a commission for the sale of that product.
How can I join the Upwork Affiliate Program?
You can join the Upwork affiliate program by filling out their application: https://www.upwork.com/affiliates?utm_source=nicheswork
What is the commission rate for Upwork affiliates?
The commission rate for Upwork affiliates is 70% Per Sale. This means that for each sale made through your unique affiliate link, you will earn 70% Per Sale in commission.
This rate applies to all products, making it a lucrative opportunity for those who effectively promote Upwork products to their audience.
What happens if a customer returns a product I referred?
In almost every case that means your commission for the Upwork sale will get reversed. This may not be the case if you negotiate your contract with them. This can typically be done after consistent sales are proven.
What if I don’t have a website?
If you don’t have a website, it will be difficult to be a successful Upwork affiliate.
You can get affiliate marketing traffic from social media or email marketing, but it’s more difficult to break through the noise with those channels.
My recommendation is that you learn how to start a business blog, sign up for Lasso, and create a real affiliate marketing business.
