Affiliate Program

You can get paid by referring paying customers to us. We pay $14 USD per customer, and you can withdraw the money to your PayPal account 45 days after they sign up.

Getting Started

You'll need to create an account with us. Just go to our homepage and get a free trial. You can delete the game server immediately if you don't want it. Then go to Account > Referral Program and you'll see details about how to start referring people and getting paid.

Magic Links and Promocodes

We will give you a magic link, something like https://arkservers.io/?r=abcdef. It has a special code at the end which is unique to your account. When a user follows this link and later signs up, we will know that you sent the referral. If you're running a review site, this is your best bet.

If you're a streamer planning to refer people by talking about our service, the magic link won't work well because it's hard to give out verbally. You'll need to create a promocode instead. A promocode is a short, all-upercase string like MYSTREAM. If a user puts in your promocode when they sign up, they get 20% off their first monthly payment and you get credit for referring them.

Regardless of which method you use, you can keep track of your referrals through our website to see how well your promotion strategy is going. For magic links, we show you clicks as well as paid signups. For promocodes, we can only show signups which used the code.
