About Rytr
Rytr sells a low-cost AI writing assistant for individuals and small teams. Its in-house affiliate program pays 30% of each referred customer's payments for their first 12 months, then stops. On top of commission, the affiliate page lists a $15 activation bonus, $30 when you reach 250 referrals and $100 when you refer your 1,000th customer. Your audience gets an exclusive 20% discount through your link. Payment is by PayPal. The FAQ sets two conditions before anything is paid: your balance must exceed $100, and you must have referred more than one customer. Commission is then paid on the first working day of the month, 30 days after the transaction.

Promotional rules
What Rytr allows and forbids before you promote it.
- Paid ads are conditional: any paid campaign must list Rytr brand terms as negative keywords so the ads never show on those searches.
- Bidding on Rytr's brand name in paid ads is banned, and breaking this rule suspends the affiliate account.
- Nothing is paid until you have exceeded $100 and referred more than one customer.
Requirements
Joining starts with an application on Rytr's affiliate page; once accepted you receive a unique tracking link. No separate affiliate terms document is linked from that page, so the FAQ is the only published rulebook.
- An accepted application on rytr.me/affiliates
- A PayPal account to receive commission
Who this is best for
