What is the Framer affiliate program?

Framer pays verified creators 50% of referred subscription revenue — recurring, for the lifetime of the customer. Every time someone signs up for a paid Framer plan through your link, you earn half of their monthly or annual payment for as long as they stay subscribed.

The program is managed through Dub — Framer's affiliate tracking platform. Payouts are processed monthly, covering commissions earned two months prior. Minimum payout balance is $200. Payouts are made via Stripe, PayPal, or stablecoin.

How much can you actually earn?

I've been in the Framer affiliate program since I started building templates under TMPL. My affiliate income is currently around $2,000/month — and that comes almost entirely from organic traffic.

My templates live on the Framer Marketplace, people find them, click my referral link, sign up for Framer, and I earn a commission on their subscription.

The first six months I earned almost nothing. Affiliate income compounds slowly — it takes time to build up a base of referred users. But once it starts, it keeps paying month after month without additional work.

Who qualifies for the program?

The Framer affiliate program is available to verified Framer creators. Here's how the path looks:

  1. Register as a Framer creator in the Creator Space

  2. Get a template, component, or plugin approved — or become an approved Framer Expert. This unlocks the Links tab in your Creator Space.

  3. Connect to Dub through the Creator Dashboard to manage your affiliate links and payouts

Once you're in, you get one main referral link — but you can create additional links (as many as you need) for different channels, campaigns, or content pieces. Every signup through any of your links is tracked and attributed to you.

How commissions work

When someone signs up via your link, the conversion appears as pending for 30 days to account for potential refunds. After 30 days with no refund, the commission is confirmed.

Commissions may be adjusted if the referred user cancels within their first year. After that, the subscription is stable and your commission keeps coming.

Payouts go through three stages in Dub: Pending → Processing (around 4 business days) → Completed, deposited directly to your bank account.

How to get people to use your link

The simplest approach: put your referral link everywhere you talk about Framer.

Blog posts about Framer — every article that answers a question about the platform is an opportunity. Someone reads "Is Framer free?" and clicks your link to sign up.

Social media — X, Instagram, Pinterest. If you're posting about Framer, your link should be in the bio and in relevant posts.

Framer Marketplace — if you publish templates, your profile and template pages are natural places for a referral link.

You don't need a large audience to start earning. You need consistent presence in places where people are already looking for Framer information.

The Dub Network bonus

Dub recently launched a Network Referral program — you can earn an additional bonus by referring other creators to join Dub's affiliate network. When someone joins through your Dub referral link and starts earning commissions, you receive 50% of their Dub payout fees for the first 12 months.

This is a smaller income stream than the main Framer affiliate, but it compounds if you're creating content for an audience of designers and creators who might want to monetize through Framer themselves.

Is it worth it?

Yes — if you're already creating content about Framer. The program costs nothing to join and every piece of content you publish becomes a potential revenue source.

The honest caveat: it takes time. Six months before I saw real money. But the income is recurring — people don't cancel Framer subscriptions often, so referred users keep paying month after month.

If you're building in the Framer ecosystem anyway, not having a referral link is leaving money on the table.
