Partner program
Send a founder. Get paid for a year.
Thread Otter turns Reddit, X, LinkedIn, and Bluesky threads into customers. If your audience is founders hunting their first users, you earn 30% of every payment your referrals make for 12 months, tracked in a live ledger you can check any hour.
free to join · no customer minimums · payouts monthly
30% recurring. No fine print.
The 12 months start when your referral first pays, not when they sign up, so a long trial never eats your window. Attribution holds for 90 days after the click.

Three steps. Then it compounds.
01
Apply
Two minutes: who you are, who you reach. Referral applications get a decision within a day, from a human.
02
Share your link
Approved partners get a personal code that works on any Thread Otter page, plus a dashboard that updates as clicks land.
03
Get paid
Commissions accrue on every invoice your referrals pay, clear after a 30-day hold, and pay out monthly to PayPal or Wise.
Your audience asks “how do I get users?”
The program pays best when your people are early-stage founders doing their own GTM. That usually means:
Newsletter writers + creators
You publish about customer acquisition, build-in-public, or founder-led growth, and your readers ship products.
Community operators
You run the founder Slack, Discord, or accelerator cohort where 'how did you get your first 100 users' comes up weekly.
Consultants + coaches
You advise early founders on GTM and want the tool you recommend to pay you back while it does the work.
Run growth for clients?
We take on a small number of agencies hands-on: terms shaped per book of business, and the founder sets up your first client with you. Straight talk: there is no self-serve agency console yet, which is exactly why early agency partners get direct access.
Two minutes to apply. A year of payouts per referral.
Every application is reviewed by a human, usually within a day. If it's not a fit we say so plainly, and the door stays open.
