How we ranked these programs

Programs are sorted by headline commission percentage on recurring revenue first, then percentages paid once on the first payment, then flat fees (a fixed amount per signup or sale), because the three are not directly comparable. We only list programs with an official signup page, a published commission model and at least two sources checked within the last 180 days. Read the full methodology. Logos and brand names belong to their owners. Being listed does not imply a partnership with or endorsement by Scoutner.
