What Is the TrekMail Affiliate Program?

Overview

The TrekMail Affiliate Program is a performance-based partnership that pays you a commission on every paying customer you refer. Unlike the standard referral program — which gives existing TrekMail users free months for inviting friends — the affiliate program is designed for publishers, agencies, content creators, and marketers who actively promote TrekMail to an external audience.

When someone clicks your affiliate link and subscribes to a paid TrekMail plan, you earn a percentage of their subscription revenue for up to 12 months. Commissions also apply to Email Verifier credit purchases, so there are multiple ways to earn from a single referred customer.

What you are promoting

TrekMail is a multi-domain email hosting platform with three key product areas:

• Email hosting — custom-domain email with flat per-account pricing (no per-seat fees). Domains, mailboxes, SMTP, forwarding, filters, aliases, catch-all, and DMARC/SPF/DKIM configured automatically.
• Custom webmail client — a full-featured browser-based email client (contacts, calendar, rich text compose, dark mode, schedule send, message templates, identities, PWA installation for mobile). Included on all plans — a strong alternative to Google Workspace webmail or Roundcube.
• Email Verifier — bulk email list verification with 25-check trust scoring, including SMTP mailbox probing. Credit-based, available on all plans. Commissions apply to both plan subscriptions and credit purchases.

The strongest commercial angles are flat pricing versus per-seat competitors (Google Workspace, Microsoft 365) and the full-featured webmail client as a standalone reason to choose TrekMail over bare-bones email hosting alternatives.

How it works

The program operates on a simple model:

1. You apply, get approved, and receive access to your affiliate dashboard.
2. You create tracking links and share them in your content, ads, or community.
3. When someone clicks your link, a 30-day attribution cookie is set in their browser.
4. If they sign up and convert to a paid plan within that window, a commission is recorded.
5. Commissions are held for 30 days to account for refunds and chargebacks, then become available to withdraw.
6. You earn a share of that customer's subscription for up to 12 months.

What you earn

Your commission rate depends on your tier:

All new affiliates start at Tier 1. Tier upgrades are reviewed individually based on conversion volume, traffic quality, and consistency over time. There is no automatic threshold — upgrades are a deliberate decision.

How this differs from the referral program

The referral program is for any TrekMail user who wants to invite people they know. It rewards you with free months of service.

The affiliate program is a separate, application-only partnership with cash commissions paid in USD. The two programs can run side by side — your referral link and affiliate links are independent.

Who the program is for

The affiliate program is a good fit if you:

• Run a blog, newsletter, YouTube channel, or podcast with an audience that includes agencies, teams, or solo operators
• Manage an SEO or comparison site covering email hosting, productivity tools, or SaaS products
• Work in web development, hosting, or IT consulting and can recommend TrekMail to clients
• Build developer or AI-agent tooling and can reach a technical audience
• Create content about browser-based email clients, Google Workspace alternatives, or productivity tools — the webmail angle opens a large comparison-intent audience
• Run paid advertising campaigns and want to promote a product with a proven commercial angle

There are no hard requirements around audience size. Every application is reviewed individually.
