The affiliate programs allow all ArtStation users the opportunity to earn extra income.
ArtStation Promotion Program
If the product is discovered with no referrer on the Marketplace or via an ArtStation promotion or marketing campaign, ArtStation acts as an affiliate and retains the 15% commission.
Self-Promotion (For Sellers)
To self promote your product, and earn extra income, you can either copy the special link on the published product page or click on the link for the product you want to promote on your manage Products page. This will copy the special link.
Just share the link and all sales made through the link will earn you an extra 15%.
Community Affiliate Program (For Sellers and Non-Sellers)
To take part in the community affiliate program, simply copy the special link on a product page and share it.
All sales made through the affiliate link will earn a 15% commission.
Contract Affiliate Program (For Sellers and Non-Sellers)
Partner directly with sellers to earn higher commissions. Sellers may work with influencers or ambassadors to expand their reach and increase sales.
Contract affiliates can earn anywhere from 20% - 80% on each sale.
As a seller, to create a contract,
-
Go to your Store section in the dropdown menu and select “Seller Profile”

From there, go to Affiliate Contracts on the left side menu and click “Create Contract”
-
Make sure the affiliate partner you are working with is on ArtStation and search for them to select the user you are creating the contract for.
-
Set a commission rate of anywhere between 20%-80%. This is how much they’ll make on each product they recommend.
-
Specify whether you want the contract to apply to all your products (including future ones) or select specific products as part of the contract.
If you want to change any of the terms of the contract with this partner, you will need to cancel the contract and create a new one.
