How many creators will you refer?
$81/mo recurring · ~$2,920 total over 36 months across 10 referrals.
Based on 70% weekly / 30% annual subscriber mix. Per-referral: $7.50/wk × 25% = $1.88/wk on weekly subs, $247/yr × 25% = $61.75/yr on annual subs. Commissions paid every month for 36 months while they stay subscribed. Founding 100 affiliates earn 35% (not 25%) on customers acquired during the 90-day launch window.
Anyone can promote a free tool. Only someone who actually pays for and uses Cook can authentically tell the story. That's the entire reason this works.
The personas below are illustrative scenarios, not real affiliate testimonials. Dollar amounts describe commission math (25% × subscription × 36 months), not actual or typical earnings. See the Earnings Notice at the bottom of this page.
"My kid is making $800/mo telling friends at school about it."
Pays $30/mo. Brings in 12 friends. Earns ~$3,500 over 36 months. Everyone wins.
"I finally found a way to make money selling software. So easy even a grandma can do it."
Posts on Facebook. Friends sub. She earns. The story is the marketing.
"I started using Cook to land brand deals. Ended up selling software instead."
Real customer journey. Real video. Cook's product becomes its own promo.
"An old woman who doesn't know what she's doing is making more than her grandkids."
Universal "if she can do it, I can" hook. Affiliate's authentic story sells it.
It keeps the tire-kickers out. It makes every promoter a real customer. And it means every video promoting Cook is true — because the person making it actually uses Cook. That's why the videos convert. That's why the program will scale.

FTC Affiliate Disclosure
As a Cook affiliate, you must disclose your affiliate relationship in any content promoting Cook. Use #ad, #affiliate, or "affiliate link" in posts, stories, videos, and emails. This is required by 16 CFR Part 255 and the FTC Endorsement Guides — it's not optional.
Earnings Notice
Cook's affiliate program is new. Any specific dollar amounts shown on this page (e.g., "$290 per referred customer") describe how the commission math works (25% × subscription price × 36 months), not what any specific affiliate will or has earned. Most affiliates may earn nothing. Earnings depend on factors including audience size, content quality, posting frequency, and platform algorithms — none of which Cook controls. Cook will publish an Income Disclosure Statement with median, mean, and distribution data once the program has 30+ days of payout data. No income is promised, projected, or guaranteed.
Not a Pyramid or MLM
Cook's affiliate program has a single commission tier. You earn only on customers you directly refer — there are no downlines, no recruitment of recruiters, no "ranks," no quotas, and no products you have to buy and resell. Commissions are capped at 36 months per referred customer. Cook is a real software product that affiliates use; promoter status is gated to active paying customers specifically to ensure recommendations come from real users.
Tax Responsibility
U.S. affiliates earning $600+ in a calendar year will receive a 1099-NEC from Cook (or its payment processor) and are responsible for reporting affiliate income on their own tax return. Cook does not withhold taxes. Consult a tax professional with questions.
Refunds & Clawback
Cook offers a 7-day money-back guarantee on all subscriptions. If a referred customer requests a refund within that window, the affiliate commission for that customer is reversed (clawed back). Repeat refund-abusers are blacklisted from re-subscribing.
