About the Pluralsight affiliate program
Pluralsight runs its affiliate programme through CJ Affiliate, which handles applications. The rate card is unusually granular: $1 for every free trial signup, 30% of the purchase price of the first month on monthly subscriptions, 10% of the purchase price of the first year on annual subscriptions, and 5% on team subscriptions up to a maximum of five seats. The binding constraint is the attribution window, which is just 7 days from the click — among the shortest of any programme we list, and a serious problem for technical content where readers research over weeks before buying. The 50% commission widely quoted for Pluralsight has no source on its own page.
