Affiliate program
Earn 20% commission on every payment your referral makes in their first 12 months. Our 90-day attribution window means you still get credit if they sign up weeks after clicking.
Powered by Refersion. Sign-up takes a couple of minutes and your links work immediately.
Note on the sign-up link: our affiliate portal is still hosted under our previous brand name, Craftybase. Stocksmith was previously Craftybase, so craftybase.refersion.com is the correct destination and tracking works exactly as expected.
We are looking for people who genuinely help product businesses run better operations, not people who drop links.
You will do well here if you publish regularly for people who make and sell physical products, and you would rather earn on a customer who stays than on a one-off click.
Why we care about fit: we would rather have ten affiliates earning real money from recommendations their audience trusts than a hundred earning pocket change from traffic that never converts.
Three steps, and nothing to wait on.
Create a free Refersion account. You get your unique tracking link and a dashboard showing clicks, conversions and commission in real time.
Blog posts, video descriptions, newsletters, client recommendations, community answers. Talk about the actual problem: multi-level inventory, accurate cost per unit, production that does not run on a spreadsheet.
You earn 20% of every payment your referral makes in their first 12 months, for as long as they stay subscribed.
20% of every payment, across the referral's first 12 months. Monthly subscribers pay twelve times in that window, annual subscribers once, so the twelve-month total is the same either way.
| Plan | Monthly price | Your cut per month | Total over 12 months |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pro | $24/month | $4.80 | $57.60 |
| Studio | $49/month | $9.80 | $117.60 |
| Indie | $99/month | $19.80 | $237.60 |
| Business | $199/month | $39.80 | $477.60 |
| Growth | $349/month | $69.80 | $837.60 |
Annual subscribers pay for the year up front, so you earn 20% of that single payment: $48 on Pro, $98 on Studio, $198 on Indie, $398 on Business, $698 on Growth. Commission is earned while the subscription stays active. Current prices are on the pricing page.
Operations software is a considered purchase. If someone bookmarks your link and signs up two months later, the commission is still yours.
Plans run from $240 to $3490 a year, so 20% is a number worth having rather than a rounding error.
Once a business has its materials, BOMs and production history in one place, it stays. Retention is what makes the twelve-month window worth something.
14-day free trial, no credit card. Built specifically for businesses that manufacture, which is exactly the gap generic inventory tools leave open.
Our best-performing affiliates have one thing in common, and it is not reach. They explain the problem before they name the tool.
Payment terms are set in the Refersion program and govern in full. The affiliate agreement covers everything else.
Anything else, email hello@stocksmith.io.
20% of every payment your referral makes during their first 12 months as a subscriber. On a monthly plan that is twelve payments: Studio at $49/month earns you $9.80 twelve times, so $117.60. On an annual plan there is one payment in that window, so Studio at $490/year earns you $98. Commission is paid provided the referral stays subscribed.
Payouts go out via PayPal on the first Friday of each calendar month, once your balance has reached $20. You can watch the balance build in the Refersion dashboard.
90 days. If someone clicks your link today and subscribes any time in the next 90 days, you get full credit. This matters more than it sounds: inventory software is rarely bought on the first visit.
Stocksmith was previously Craftybase, and our affiliate portal still carries the old name. It is the same program and the same account, tracking and payouts work normally, and we are rebranding the portal separately. Nothing about your commission depends on which name is on the door.
We review applications to make sure the site is a reasonable fit and does not fall foul of the restrictions in section 2.1 of the affiliate agreement. Most applications clear without any back and forth.
No. You can promote Stocksmith without an account of your own. If you do run a product business, the 14-day free trial needs no credit card, and knowing the software firsthand makes for much better content.
Anywhere you publish: blog posts, video descriptions, newsletters, podcast notes, social profiles, community answers, client recommendations. The one hard line is paid search on our brand terms, which is an immediate ban.
You may not bid on "Stocksmith", "Craftybase" or similar branded terms in paid search, place our offers on coupon or discount sites, use cookie-stuffing, parasiteware or deceptive pop-ups, send unsolicited email, or present yourself as Stocksmith or an official partner. The full list is in the affiliate agreement.
Yes, and this is one of the strongest angles in the program. Bookkeepers, accountants and operations consultants working with inventory-carrying clients are recommending it into exactly the problem it solves.
Inventory, costing and manufacturing software for small-batch product businesses and small manufacturers.
