Social media scheduler affiliate program
SkedCast does not run a cash-payout social media scheduler affiliate program yet. That was a deliberate choice, not an oversight — here is what that means, and the real program that exists instead.
Why there is no cash affiliate program yet
Every established competitor in this space runs a cash affiliate program, and it would be the obvious thing to copy. It is also a genuinely different product from a discount-based referral system: paying real money to anyone on the internet who signs up needs payout rails, tax-form collection (W-8/W-9, 1099s), identity verification, and fraud controls for an attacker who is now paid in cash instead of a discount on a bill they might never pay. None of that has been built.
The decision was made deliberately rather than by default, and the underlying data model leaves room for a future affiliate tier without a rework — it just is not live today, and this page says so plainly instead of describing a program that does not exist.
What exists today: the referral program
Give a month, get a month
Refer a team to SkedCast: they get their first month free on any monthly plan, and you earn a month of their plan as account credit. Rewards are capped at a fixed number per rolling twelve months per account, and paid in credit rather than cash — which is exactly why it does not carry an affiliate program’s payout and fraud complexity.
Read the full referral program termsSocial media scheduler affiliate program FAQ
- Does SkedCast have a paid affiliate program?
- No, not a cash-payout one. This was a deliberate choice for the current product, not an oversight — a cash affiliate program needs payout rails, tax-form collection and fraud controls that a discount-based referral program does not.
- What is the difference between an affiliate program and the referral program?
- An affiliate program pays commissions in money, usually to strangers driving traffic. The referral program pays in account credit, only to people who already have a SkedCast account, capped at a fixed number of rewards per year — a materially smaller fraud surface.
- Can I still earn something for recommending SkedCast?
- Yes, through the referral program: your referral gets their first month free, and you earn a month of their plan as account credit.
- Will a cash affiliate program be added later?
- Possibly — nothing about the product rules it out for the future, and the referral system was built with an eye toward it. It has not been built yet, and this page will not claim otherwise.
- Is there an application form for affiliates?
- No — there is no affiliate program to apply to yet.
- Where do I sign up for the referral program instead?
- From inside your SkedCast account, or read the terms on the referral program page first if you want the details before signing up.
