How do I synchronize my posts with TAC’s official schedule?
When TAC announces new courses or events, affiliates are expected to share the news simultaneously. You will receive early access to event details, and promotional materials will be updated in your toolkit. To ensure your posts align with TAC’s schedule, it’s crucial to plan and schedule your content in advance.
How much can I earn?
Tier A affiliates have earned upwards of $5000 in a single week with new event sign-up partnerships in the past. Your earnings will depend on the level of engagement with your audience, the success of your promotional efforts, and the revenue-sharing slab you are assigned to. For membership sign-ups, earnings can range from $100 to $500 per referral.
How many types of revenue-sharing categories are there?
We offer three standard shared-revenue categories—Tier C (10%), Tier B (20%), and Tier A (40%). There's a special "Pro-Creator Category" that scales up to 50% —Your placement within these categories is determined by the potential value your profile brings to the partnership. To maximize your chances of being placed in a higher tier outright, please complete all questions in the onboarding form thoroughly. However, your performance will ultimately decide whether you remain in your current tier or move up—or down
For example, if you start with Tier C and generate less than 20 paying referrals in the first month, you'll stay in Tier C (10% slab), 20–50 paying referrals will move you to Tier B in the 20% slab, and more than 50 paying referrals will elevate you to Tier A, with 40% slab. These thresholds are reviewed every month.
You can start small and scale big within a month, potentially moving to a higher slab. Conversely, if your performance doesn’t meet the sales expectations, you may be moved to a lower slab regardless of your social presence. It's all merit based.
What is the minimum payout?
The minimum payout threshold is $100. Once you reach this amount, you’ll be eligible for a payout based on your selected schedule.
What happens if a customer returns a course?
If a customer returns a course or cancels their purchase, the commission for that transaction will be reversed. However, exchanges or replacements will not affect your commission.
When will I get paid?
Payouts are processed based on the schedule you choose: daily, weekly, or monthly. If you choose PayPal, payments are instant. Bank transfers may take 3-4 business days, or sometimes longer, depending on your bank. Please review the full terms of use for more details.
