GoDaddy
World’s largest domain registrar with universal brand recognition and a flat 10% on qualifying sales.
About the GoDaddy affiliate program
GoDaddy pays a flat 10% commission on qualifying sales with a 45-day referral period, per its CJ program terms. Several categories are excluded entirely, including aftermarket and bulk domains, auctions and charity round-ups, and auto-renewals earn nothing unless the customer clicks an affiliate link again before renewal. Applications are reviewed manually and the trademark policy is strict. CJ reported a three-month network EPC of $76.62 when these terms were checked in September 2026.
