Looking for a way to earn a commission as a Twitch streamer without waiting for some hypothetical purple badge? Good news you don’t need one.
The Skedul affiliate program lets any content creator earn a 15% commission by recommending the scheduling tool they already use to organize their streams.
No follower threshold, no minimum audience, no lengthy application review.
In this article, we break down the real numbers and explain how to sign up in just a few minutes for the Skedul streamer affiliate program!
How does the Skedul affiliate program work?
Concretely, each affiliate streamer receives a personal code. As soon as a member of your community subscribes to Skedul’s paid plan using your code, a commission is calculated and credited to your rewards balance, in your Skedul account.
| Terms | Details |
|---|---|
| Commission rate | 15 % of the pre-tax amount |
| Payment duration | Up to 12 months from the referred customer's first payment, if the code is reused during this period |
| Attribution rule | Last code entered when paying for a subscription |
| Payout threshold | $25 minimum in the rewards balance |
| Payment delay | 60 business days after the request |
What exactly does the commission apply to?
The 15% commission applies to the initial subscription as well as the recurring monthly payments within the 12 months following the first sign-up. If a member of your community becomes a Skedul Gold subscriber and renews their subscription for a year, they will generate a commission for you every month for 1 year, not just at sign-up.
What other articles never tell you: the 12-month limit
After this period, no further commission is owed even if the subscriber remains active. This is a real limitation of the program, rarely mentioned elsewhere for this type of SaaS partnership, and it should shape your strategy: it’s better to regularly recruit new subscribers than to rely on a single large lifetime account.
How much a streamer can really earn?
Let’s use a concrete example rather than a vague promise. Skedul’s paid plan (Gold offer) costs €8.25 excl. tax per month or €83.25 excl. tax per year. On a monthly subscription, the 15% commission comes to €1.23 per month per referred subscriber, for up to 12 months, or roughly €12.50 per subscriber over the full period.
Example:
- 50 uses of your code with an annual plan = €625 in your affiliate rewards balance after 12 months
- 100 uses of your code with an annual plan = €1,250 in your affiliate rewards balance after 12 months
Is it worth it for a small Twitch channel?
Yes, because the commission doesn’t depend on any audience threshold. A streamer with 300 followers who converts just 20 community members into Skedul Gold subscribers over a year earns around €25 per month in recurring revenue, which can be combined with donations and regular Twitch subs.
Is self-referral allowed?
How do I become a Skedul affiliate as a streamer?
Steps to sign up for the affiliate program
- Log in to your streamer account at my.skedul.stream
- In the dropdown menu, click on “streamer account”
- Click on the “AFFILIATE PROGRAM” tab
- Sign up for the affiliate program and accept the terms
- You’ll have instant access to your affiliate code on that same page
What information do I need to provide when signing up?
Nothing more than what’s already in your account! Any inaccurate information leads to immediate exclusion and cancellation of commissions owed, so it’s best to double-check everything before submitting.
Rules to follow so you don't lose anything
Something most creators don’t realize: recommending a tool for a commission is governed by French law, not just the brand’s terms of service. Article L. 121-1 of the French Consumer Code and the Omnibus Directive 2019/2161 require you to clearly inform your audience that it’s a paid partnership, before any click on the link.
What's forbidden, on pain of immediate exclusion?
Cookie stuffing (dropping a cookie without an actual click), cloaking (hiding the link), paid advertising on the brand name, and posting fake reviews. Each of these practices results in immediate account suspension and cancellation of pending commissions.
How do I display the required disclosure naturally?
A short phrase is legally sufficient, for example “affiliate link, I earn a commission if you subscribe.” It must be visible before the click, on every post or description containing the link, not just once at the bottom of the page.
