Article Overview

This support article explains GoKollab's Community Affiliates program, an internal referral system enabling paid members to earn commissions when they invite new paying members to their community.

Key Sections

Program Basics:

The article describes how "paid members receive personal invite links" and earn commissions "when an invitee joins and pays for membership."

Benefits Highlighted:

• Word-of-mouth growth through trusted member recommendations
• Lower customer acquisition costs compared to paid advertising
• Enhanced member loyalty and engagement
• Owner-controlled commission rates and payout management
• Clear attribution through personal invite links

Commission Structure:

Commissions are credited when new members use a referral link and complete paid membership. Community owners set the commission percentage globally.

Payout Control:

A critical distinction: "Payouts are managed directly by community owners, not by Kollab," giving owners flexibility in timing and payment methods.

Dashboard Features:

• For Owners: Revenue tracking, payout history, referral status updates, and CSV export for member banking information
• For Members: Account balance displays, earnings summaries, and individual referral status

Access Instructions:

Members reach their affiliate dashboard via their profile icon, while owners access settings through Kollab Studio's community menu.
