Limited
Commission for X months (e.g., 12 months)
Lifetime
Commission on every renewal forever
Example:

With 12-month recurring: $120 total over the year
Different Rate for Renewals
You can set a different rate for recurring payments:

Attribution Priority
When a sale happens, PromoteBoost attributes it in this order:
Coupon code — Always wins if used
Checkout metadata — Referral passed to Stripe
Cookie — Last click wins
Payout Settings
Minimum Payout
Affiliates must reach this balance before they can be paid:
$0
Pay any amount
$50
Standard (reduces transaction fees)
$100+
High-volume programs
Payout Term
Commissions stay "pending" for this period before becoming eligible for payout:
Net-0
Immediate payout eligibility
Net-7
7 days after the payout cycle
Net-15
15 days after the payout cycle
Net-30
30 days after the payout cycle (default)

This protects you from paying commissions on refunded sales.
