Benchmark Email Affiliate Program

Benchmark Email is a straightforward email marketing tool with a drag and drop builder, automation, landing pages and an AI writer, available in nine languages with support teams around the world. It suits small businesses that want something easier than the big platforms, and its free plan brings in a lot of first time senders.

The affiliate program pays 30 percent recurring on every monthly payment a referred customer makes for 30 months, and a one time 30 percent on annual plans once the customer has stayed 60 days. The cookie is 30 days. Tracking runs on Trackdesk, which issues your affiliate ID and reports referrals and commissions. Payouts are monthly around the 15th for the previous month, once you have at least $30 in commissions, which is one of the lowest thresholds in the category. Applications are reviewed and the full affiliate terms are published on the site.

Thirty months of recurring is shorter than lifetime but longer than the twelve months most email tools offer, and the low threshold means small affiliates see payments quickly.

Benchmark converts from beginner email marketing guides, multilingual content in Spanish, Japanese and other supported languages, and small business tool comparisons where simplicity is the selling point. It is a reliable secondary recommendation alongside the bigger names.
