CanvassLite Affiliate Program: Earn 30% Recurring Commission Referring Door-to-Door Software

Feb 9, 2026 7 min read

We just launched the CanvassLite Partner Program — and we deliberately built it to be one of the most generous affiliate programs in the SaaS space. If you work with door-to-door teams, run a consulting business, or simply have an audience that could benefit from CanvassLite, this is worth your attention.

Here's the full breakdown: what you earn, how it works, and why we structured it the way we did.

The short version

You get a unique referral link. When someone clicks it, signs up for CanvassLite, and eventually upgrades to a paid plan, you earn 30% of every payment they make. That's not a one-time bonus — it's recurring. If they pay monthly, you earn monthly. For as long as they stay subscribed.

Example: You refer a team that signs up for the Growth plan at $199/month. You earn $59.70 every single month they remain a customer. Refer five teams on Growth and that's $298.50/month in passive income.

What exactly do you earn?

CanvassLite offers several pricing plans. Here's what your 30% commission looks like for each:

PlanPriceYour commissionFrequency
Starter$99/mo$29.70Every month
Growth$199/mo$59.70Every month
Pro$399/mo$119.70Every month
Campaign Pass$399 one-time$119.70One-time
Campaign Pro$699 one-time$209.70One-time

The math gets interesting quickly. Monthly plans mean monthly commissions, so a single referral can earn you hundreds of dollars over a year. And there's no cap — refer as many teams as you want.

How it works, step by step

1. Sign up (takes about 60 seconds)

Go to the Partner Program page and click "Become a Partner." You'll enter your name, email, and PayPal address for payouts. That's it. No application process, no approval wait, no minimum audience requirements.

2. Get your unique referral link

After signing up, you'll land on your partner dashboard. You'll see your personal referral link and referral code. The link looks like:

canvasslite.com/signup.html?ref=YOURCODE

Anyone who signs up through this link is permanently attributed to you. The referral cookie lasts 30 days — they don't have to sign up in the same session.

3. Share your link

How you promote is up to you. Some ideas that work well:

The key is authenticity. People can spot a forced recommendation from a mile away. If you genuinely think CanvassLite is a good fit for someone, say so. If it's not, don't push it. The best affiliates are the ones who recommend products they'd use themselves.

4. Track everything from your dashboard

Your partner dashboard shows you real-time stats: how many clicks your link gets, how many people signed up, how many converted to paid, and your total earnings. No guessing, no waiting for monthly reports.

5. Get paid

When you're ready to cash out, hit "Request Payout" in the dashboard. We process payouts via PayPal within a few business days. There's no minimum payout threshold — even if you've earned $5, you can request it.

Why 30%? (And why recurring?)

Most SaaS affiliate programs offer 15–20% commission, and many only pay once per referral. We went with 30% recurring for a simple reason: we want partners who are invested in the long term.

When you earn recurring commissions, your incentives align with ours. You want the teams you refer to succeed with CanvassLite, because if they stay, you keep earning. That means you're more likely to refer teams that are genuinely a good fit, and more likely to help them get started. Everyone wins.

It also means your income grows over time. Every new referral adds to your monthly earnings, and existing referrals keep paying. After a few months of consistent referrals, the compounding effect is significant.

Who should consider joining?

The program is open to everyone, but it works especially well for:

You don't need a huge audience. A single well-placed recommendation to the right person can result in a referral that pays you $60+/month for years.

What CanvassLite customers get

It helps to know what you're recommending. People you refer get the same deal as everyone else — a 14-day free trial with no credit card required. During the trial they can import their address list, set up their team, and start knocking doors immediately.

CanvassLite is built for small to mid-size field teams: door-to-door sales, political campaigns, non-profit canvassing, and community outreach. It includes GPS tracking, territory management, real-time team chat, visit logging, and a management dashboard. Plans start at $99/month with no per-user fees.

The product sells itself once people try it. Your job as a partner is just to get the right people to try it.

Frequently asked questions

Do my referrals get a discount?

They get the standard 14-day free trial. We don't currently offer referral-specific discounts, but the trial is generous enough that most teams know whether CanvassLite is right for them before they pay anything.

How long does the cookie last?

30 days from the first click. If someone clicks your link today and signs up 3 weeks from now, you still get credit.

What if someone I refer cancels and re-subscribes?

As long as they were originally attributed to you, you'll earn commission on any payments they make — including if they come back after canceling.

Can I be a partner and a customer?

Absolutely. Many of our best partners are active CanvassLite customers. You can't refer yourself, but you can refer other teams.

Is there a limit to how many people I can refer?

No limit. Refer one person or one thousand — you earn 30% on all of them.

Ready to start?

The program is free to join and takes about a minute to set up. No approvals, no minimums, no hoops to jump through.
