About Webflow
Webflow is a visual website builder and CMS with hosting, sold as Site plans per website and Workspace plans for teams, with Enterprise above them. Its affiliate program is aimed at content creators, influencers and bloggers, and pays 50% of a brand-new customer's first Site or Workspace subscription: each monthly payment for up to 12 months from account creation (stopping earlier on cancellation), or a single commission on a first annual plan. Enterprise plans, templates, add-ons such as Optimize or Localize, extra seats and apps earn nothing. Attribution is first-touch with a 90-day cookie, and commission is paid through PartnerStack to PayPal or Stripe by the 15th of the month after a purchase is approved. Affiliates who bring in 25 new paying customers in a calendar year reach the Pro tier, which adds 10% for up to 12 more months when a referral renews after year one; Premium, at 100 customers, adds 15%. Client referrals by freelancers and agencies are excluded and belong in Webflow's separate Partner Program.

Attribution window. Webflow states a 90-day cookie with first-touch attribution: the first affiliate link a new visitor clicks gets the credit if they buy an eligible plan within 90 days. The help center adds that the cookie window shown in the Affiliate Tool applies, and that cleared cookies can lose the referral.
Promotional rules
What Webflow allows and forbids before you promote it.
- Media buyers are accepted only with pre-approval, and ads must send clicks to your own website, never straight to a Webflow domain.
- Bidding on Webflow marks, variations or misspellings is banned; terms such as "webflow", "web flow" and "webflow cms" belong on your negative keyword list.
- Coupon and deal sites, loyalty or incentive sites and sub-affiliate networks are not accepted, and links may not go on coupon websites.
- Promotional emails must follow CAN-SPAM and be sent to Webflow for approval beforehand, or copied to Webflow.
- Client referrals do not earn commission, and you cannot buy through your own link or for anyone at your organisation.
- Business names, domains and social handles may not include "Webflow", and you should call yourself a Webflow Affiliate, not a Partner.
- A breach forfeits accrued commission, and any termination ends the right to outstanding commission.
- Webflow can change the commission component at any time.
Requirements
Webflow reviews every application and weighs audience size, content and design quality and fit with its customers; the PartnerStack form says it is currently prioritising creators who reach Enterprise audiences. The affiliate page and help center say reviews usually take 10 business days, while the PartnerStack form warns of several weeks, and no answer within 30 days counts as a rejection. Accepted affiliates must complete onboarding and publish a piece of content within 30 days.
- Application review
- Typically within 10 business days
- Be a content creator, influencer or blogger who owns the sites and accounts you promote on
- Keep content recent, generally published within the last 60 days
- Publish a piece of content within 30 days of acceptance and accept the program agreement
- Register with PartnerStack to receive payouts
Who this is best for
Good fit
- Design and no-code educators on YouTube or blogs whose viewers launch their own sites and buy a Site plan
- Template and component-kit creators, a strategy Webflow names among those its affiliates use
Poor fit
- Freelancers and agencies hoping to earn on client builds, which Webflow routes to its Partner Program instead
- Coupon, cashback and loyalty publishers, which the application page lists as rejected applicant types

Frequently asked questions
Does Webflow pay recurring affiliate commission?
For up to 12 months on a monthly plan: 50% of each payment until 12 months from account creation or cancellation, whichever comes first. A first annual plan pays one 50% commission at purchase.
How long is the Webflow affiliate cookie?
90 days, with first-touch attribution. A new visitor who clicks your link first and buys an eligible Site or Workspace plan within 90 days is credited to you.
Can freelancers and agencies join the Webflow affiliate program?
Only as content creators. Client referrals never earn affiliate commission, and the affiliate page lists freelancers and agencies building Webflow projects among rejected applicants, while the PartnerStack form lets them apply if they create meaningful content. Client work is meant for the Webflow Partner Program.
What do the Webflow Pro and Premium affiliate tiers pay?
Pro, at 25 new paying customers in a calendar year, adds 10% for up to 12 months when a referral renews after their first 12 months. Premium, at 100 customers, adds 15% on the same basis, and only these two tiers can earn challenge rewards and performance bonuses.
