How does referral tracking work?
PropShopTrader uses a 12-month tracking window.
When someone clicks your referral link, any eligible purchases they make within 12 months will still generate commission.
Once a trader registers through your link, they remain connected to your affiliate account for future eligible purchases.

What is the commission structure?
We use a tiered model based on your total referred revenue over a rolling 30-day period. Commissions start at 12% and scale up to 17% depending on performance. Affiliates generating $200,000 or more in referred revenue within a 30-day window may be eligible for custom commission rates.
Are there minimum requirements to maintain my commission tier?
Yes. All commission tiers require at least 5 new customer referrals every 30 days to remain active. If performance drops below this threshold, your tier may be adjusted based on recent results.
Additionally, if your referred revenue falls below the required amount for your current tier over a 30-day period, you may be downgraded to a lower tier based on average performance or current earnings which will be communicated in advance to you.
Will I receive commission for existing leads?
No
If a lead already exists in the PropShopTrader system or was previously referred by another affiliate, commissions will not be awarded.
Commissions are only paid for new customers who are first introduced through your referral link.
Can I have more than one affiliate account?
No, each individual or entity is allowed to maintain only one affiliate account.
Creating multiple affiliate accounts may result in suspension or termination.
