Referralmeter

The affiliate program that fills itself.

Your coding agent installs it in one prompt. We prove it tracks with a live test referral. Then our Recruiting Agent finds the creators who'll actually sell your AI app.

> Read referralmeter.com/agents/install.md, install Referralmeter with key pk_8fK2… and verify it end to end.

Works in Claude Code, Cursor and Lovable. Free until your affiliates bring in $1,000 a month.

Most affiliate programs launch, get sign-ups, and never make a sale.

Usually for one of three reasons: the tracking quietly broke, the affiliates never had an audience, or the commissions don't fit how an AI app charges. Referralmeter fixes all three.

1

Install

Paste one prompt into your coding agent. It adds the script, passes the referral into checkout and connects your billing provider. Then we run a real test referral and issue a certificate you can check.

How a 30% commission works on a $20 credit pack or a metered bill: commission on credits and usage.

Your agent can run it, not just install it.

Everything in the dashboard is reachable from Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client. One line holds for every route: no agent, API call or MCP tool can mark money as paid. That stays a signed-in click.

MCP server

Check stats, approve affiliates and run the verification from your agent. Writes ask for your approval.

REST API

Programs, affiliates, referrals and commissions with scoped secret keys.

$ curl https://referralmeter.com/api/v1/stats -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_…"

llms.txt

The whole docs index in one file, so an agent with web access can read it in one go.

Questions founders ask before switching.

Something else? [email protected] — a person answers.

Do you hold my money?

No. Referralmeter calculates what each affiliate is owed. You pay them from your own PayPal or Wise account with the batch file we prepare, then mark the batch paid. Money never passes through us, and no agent, API call or MCP tool can mark a payout as paid.

What if tracking breaks after I ship a change?

Run the verification again. It sends a test click, a signup, a test-mode payment, the commission and a refund through your real setup and issues a fresh certificate. The dashboard also shows when we last saw the script on your site and the last webhook from each billing provider, so a silent break is visible.

Is this cookie-based tracking?

Only for the first hop. The script remembers the affiliate click in first-party storage on your own domain, never a third-party cookie. At checkout the referral is written into your billing provider's own record, and every commission comes from a signed webhook. Once a customer has paid, a blocked script or a cleared cookie can't lose the commission.

Can I import from FirstPromoter or Rewardful?

Yes, on Pro. We import your affiliates and their referral codes through the old tool's API, and the script understands their link parameters (fpr for FirstPromoter, via for Rewardful), so links your affiliates already posted keep working. Step by step: from FirstPromoter, from Rewardful.

Do I need a developer?

If you build with Claude Code, Cursor or Lovable, your agent is the developer: paste the install prompt and it adds the script, passes the referral into checkout and runs the verification. Without an agent, it is one script tag and one billing connection, and the docs walk through both.

What does the Recruiting Agent actually do?

It researches creators, newsletters and YouTubers who already cover your category or your competitors, and gives you a shortlist where every name comes with the evidence (a link to the video or post) and a fit score. For each one it drafts a personal note. It runs up to 2 times a week on the Growth plan, then tracks each person from invited to joined to first click to first sale.

Do you email creators for me?

No. You send each draft from your own inbox, edited as much as you like, up to 15 a day. Personal mail from a founder gets answered; bulk mail from a tool's domain gets marked as spam, and that would hurt you and every other customer.

What counts as referred revenue on Free?

Free until your affiliates bring in $1,000 a month. That's live payments from customers an affiliate referred, minus refunds, in the current calendar month (UTC). Test-mode payments and verification runs never count. Tracking never stops at the cap — only payout exports pause until you upgrade. The cap resets on the 1st of each month.

Can I cancel any time?

Yes. Plans are monthly. Cancel in Settings → Billing, which opens the Stripe billing portal; you keep your plan until the end of the month you paid for, and your data and affiliates stay on the Free plan.

Paste one prompt. Get a certificate. Then go find your sellers.

Free until your affiliates bring in $1,000 a month. Then $49, flat, however much they sell.
