Calculate your affiliate income target
This is a planning estimate, not a forecast. It assumes a steady number of new paying referrals each month and a constant cancellation rate. Most new affiliates earn far less than a full-time income, and nothing here is a promise of results. Your inputs stay in your browser and are not sent anywhere.

How many referrals do you need?
The simple answer
Divide your goal by what one referral pays you each month. For a $1,000 monthly goal, that means about:
| Plan your referrals buy | Active referrals needed |
|---|---|
| Startup ($10.20 a month) | 99 |
| Webinar ($28.20 a month) | 36 |
| Unlimited ($58.20 a month) | 18 |
Active referrals means people who are currently paying. The calculator rounds up to whole referrals.
Why it takes more than that
Some referrals cancel. If 5% of them cancel each month, you have to keep adding new ones just to stay in place. The calculator works out how many new paying referrals you need per month to reach your goal in the time you choose, then turns that into a rough number of visitors using the sign-up and upgrade rates you enter.

Questions about Systeme.io affiliate income
How much does Systeme.io pay per referral?
The affiliate page lists 60% of what the referral pays. That is about $10.20 a month for a Startup referral, $28.20 for Webinar and $58.20 for Unlimited, paid every month the person stays subscribed.
Is the commission recurring?
Yes. The page describes it as lifetime recurring: you keep earning each month the referral stays subscribed. If a referral cancels, the commission stops.
When do I get paid?
The page lists monthly payouts with a $30 minimum. Check your affiliate dashboard for the exact schedule and payment methods, since these can change.
Do free sign-ups earn me money?
No. A referral on the free plan pays you nothing. You earn when that person upgrades to a paid plan, which is why the calculator asks what share of sign-ups upgrade.
How many referrals for $1,000 a month?
Roughly 99 active Startup referrals, 36 Webinar referrals or 18 Unlimited referrals, before counting cancellations. The calculator adds cancellations and a time frame.
Is this income guaranteed?
No. It is a planning tool. The sign-up, upgrade and cancellation rates are your assumptions, and real results depend on your audience, content and traffic. Most affiliates earn little at first.
