What is the Creator Program?

The Creator Program from Framer is a system where you can promote Framer through your published content or influence and earn revenue. Once approved, the Links tab in your dashboard will be unlocked. There, you can create Affiliate Links to track user conversions and monitor your earnings. Simply put, it’s an official program where introducing Framer can seamlessly generate income.

How to Participate

There are three ways to join the Creator Program. For all three, once approved, you can use links issued from the Links tab.

1. Publish Templates, Plugins, Components

   • By uploading your templates, plugins, or components to the marketplace and getting approval, you're automatically registered.

2. Become a Framer Expert

   • If you're a certified Framer Expert, you can join the program without applying separately.

3. Apply Directly

   • If neither of the above applies to you, submit an application form from the Links tab in the Creator Dashboard. Your application will be judged based on your existing content and its relevance to Framer viewers.

Affiliate Link System

The Creator Program includes an Affiliate Link system. Here are some guidelines:

• If someone signs up for Framer through your link and upgrades to a paid plan, 50% of the first-year subscription fee will be your earnings.

• You can freely use the link in blog posts, YouTube video descriptions, Twitter, tutorials, etc.

• Note that purchases of your templates or plugins are not tracked. Affiliate Links only track upgrades to Framer's paid plans.

Earning with Templates

Publishing templates is the most popular way to generate income. Please note that commissions are only paid for upgrades to site plans, editors, and locales.

Features of Template Revenue Structure

• You can upload free or paid templates to the marketplace.

• When you sell paid templates, 100% of the selling price goes to the creator.

• If a user upgrades to a Framer paid plan through your template's Remix Link, you earn a 50% commission.

Earning with Plugins

If you're a developer, publishing plugins for revenue is also recommended.

Features of Plugin Revenue Structure

• You can upload them for free or for a fee on the marketplace.

• For paid plugins, you take 100% of the sales revenue.

• Plugins do not apply any commission based on Affiliate Links or Remix Links, similar to templates.

Earning with Components

You can earn by sharing reusable interactive components.

Features of Component Revenue Structure

• You can register them for free or for a fee on the marketplace.

• For paid components, you receive 100% sales revenue.

• Like plugins, components are not subject to commissions based on Affiliate Links or Remix Links.

Application Review Process

If you submit an application directly, the review criteria are as follows:

• The quality and originality of your existing work

• Your plans on how to promote Framer through your content

• The size and engagement of your current audience

Results are typically available within a few days. Once approved, you’ll get access to the Links tab. If your application is rejected, you can update and improve your content and reapply.
