About Fiverr
Fiverr is a marketplace where buyers hire freelancers for digital services, alongside Logo Maker, an AI tool that generates logos from designs made by Fiverr designers. The Fiverr Affiliate Program pays on first-time buyers. For the Marketplace, you earn a CPA of 25% of the buyer's first purchase plus a 10% revenue share on each purchase they make in the following 12 months. For Logo Maker, the first order earns a fixed $30, equal to the Logo Maker basic package, plus the same 10% share. The current plan dates from a restructure announced on 3 December 2023. Before it, the CPA was a fixed $15 to $150 depending on the service category of the first purchase. The affiliate agreement replaced the old Hybrid Plan from 1 January 2024 and bound every affiliate from 1 June 2024. The announcement also set a $500 cap on percentage-based CPAs and gave Fiverr Pro a 70% first-purchase CPA; the current program page lists only the Marketplace and Logo Maker offers. Tracking runs on Fiverr's own system rather than a network. Payment needs a $100 balance and a monthly invoice, and is made net 30. Affiliates who recruit other affiliates through a sub-affiliate link earn 10% of those affiliates' revenue.

What Fiverr allows and forbids before you promote it.
- No sponsored links or paid search ads using "Fiverr" or other Fiverr marks, and commission can be withheld for traffic sent directly from search engines.

Who this is best for
Good fit
- Content about hiring freelancers or outsourcing small projects, where a reader's first order and repeat orders both pay
- Recruiters of other affiliates, since Fiverr adds 10% of each referred affiliate's revenue
Poor fit
- Search advertisers who rely on Fiverr brand keywords or send paid search traffic straight to Fiverr
- Low-volume sites that may take months to reach the $100 payment threshold
Pros and limitations
Pros
- First-order CPA is a percentage of the order, so larger first purchases pay more than a flat bounty

Limitations
- Payment starts only at a $100 balance and needs a monthly invoice filed within 10 days of month end
