Who should consider becoming a Vendasta affiliate?
A Vendasta affiliate is someone who—in exchange for commissions—shares their love for Vendasta. As an affiliate partner, you'll receive an industry-leading commission for every referral to Vendasta who signs up.
In order to be successful, affiliates should have a strong and engaged audience, along with a passion for sales and marketing.
“Traditionally affiliate marketers are the ones pushing out content online. They have their own blogs, they already have an existing website. They may have multiple different affiliate links there as well,” says Vendasta Director of Partner Alliances Kass Naicker.
“But we’re also looking for affiliates who have an audience and just want to try something a little bit different. No matter where your audience is, whether it's on your website, blog, TED Talk, Instagram, Tik Tok or Facebook. Affiliates are able earn commission by tapping that audience so we can bring them into the Vendasta ecosystem.”

With a focused approach on sales-led growth the Vendasta sales division is an affiliate’s secret weapon, according to Vendasta Director of Partner Alliances Kass Naicker.
Our affiliates can focus on what they do best, putting out the proper content and getting unique and qualified referrals to us. We take it from there and close those clients, so the affiliate can collect the commissions.
“We pay those commissions out monthly, and as Vendasta continues to close more and more referrals that monthly recurring revenue stream for our affiliates continues to climb. It’s a new and exciting concept for us here at Vendasta. We’re really making the investment to bring those leads in and develop meaningful affiliate partnerships.”
