Most lead-list affiliate programs pay once. ListRiver pays 25% of every monthly payment from a subscriber you refer, for as long as they stay subscribed. Refer a customer once and get paid every month.
The product: New Business Monthly
Every business newly registered across 12 states, delivered as one file each month, for $399 a month. No repeats, and subscribers can cancel any time. Your commission is $99.75 for every month each referred subscriber pays.
What it adds up to
| Subscribers you referred | You earn each month | Over 12 months |
|---|
| 1 | $99.75 | $1,197 |
| 5 | $498.75 | $5,985 |
| 10 | $997.50 | $11,970 |
| 25 | $2,493.75 | $29,925 |
Examples only, assuming each subscriber stays the whole time. You are paid on months a subscriber actually pays; refunded payments earn nothing.
Who subscribes
Anyone who sells to businesses in their first months: the owners are choosing providers for the first time, so a fresh list every month is a steady pipeline.
- Insurance agents: new businesses need liability coverage before they sign a lease or contract.
- Payroll providers: payroll is chosen around the first hire.
- Merchant services: card processing is picked at launch and rarely revisited.
- Accountants and bookkeepers: new owners face tax and entity decisions within weeks.
- Banks, lenders, web designers and marketing agencies looking for businesses that are just starting out.
If you already work with people like these, as a consultant, coach, agency, association or newsletter, one introduction can pay you every month.
The details
- Your link sets a 90-day referral cookie. If the visitor subscribes within that time, the subscriber is yours.
- Each monthly commission becomes due after the 30-day refund window and is paid by PayPal or Cash App, reported on Form 1099.
- No fees, no minimums, and no cap on how many subscribers you can refer.

What is a recurring commission?
A commission paid on every payment a customer makes for as long as they stay subscribed, not just on the first sale. ListRiver pays 25% of each monthly payment.
How long do I keep earning on a subscriber?
For as long as the subscriber you referred keeps paying. There is no end date and no cap.
What if the subscriber cancels?
Commissions stop when the payments stop. If a payment is refunded before its commission is paid, that commission is cancelled.
Do one-time orders pay too?
Yes. Custom lists and one-time files earn the same 25% of what the buyer pays.
