How creators get paid on haulune
Sixty percent of confirmed commission, a 60 day hold, a $20 minimum, and no recruitment bonuses. The full money flow, plainly.
The creator program is deliberately boring. You buy a product, film it honestly, attach the product card, and when the affiliate network confirms a sale you get 60% of the net commission. There is no recruitment bonus, no downline, and no lifetime binding to a buyer.
Here is the whole flow.
What counts as commission
A merchant pays an affiliate commission when someone buys through your tracked link. haulune keeps 40% to run the catalog and review queue, and pays you 60%. If the order is returned inside the return window, the network reverses the commission and the ledger entry is reversed with it.
We only pay for sales the network confirms. A click is not a sale. A view is not a sale. An estimated CSV row is not a sale until a human reconciles it.
Why the 60 day hold
Marketplaces allow returns for 30 to 60 days depending on the country and category. Paying creators on day one would mean clawing money back later, which is worse for everyone. Every commission enters the ledger as pending, with a hold_until date 60 days out. When the hold passes and the order has not been reversed, finance can approve it. Approved commission becomes available for payout.
The payout rules
- Minimum payout: $20.
- Methods: PayPal, Wise or Stripe, set in your creator profile.
- Schedule: monthly, after finance reviews the batch.
- Refunds and chargebacks reverse the matching ledger entry, even after approval.
Payouts are processed by a person, not an automated wallet. That is intentional at this size: it keeps fraud review and tax details in one place.
What gets a video rejected
The review queue is looking for four things: prohibited products, medical or efficacy claims, counterfeit or branded goods without authorization, and music you do not own. A clip with a great product and a chart-topping song will be rejected. Upload it silent or with licensed audio.
We also reject clips that never show the product, hide the price, or read like an advert. The point of the catalog is that the creator paid and formed an opinion.
What we will not build
No multi-level recruitment. No "earn while you sleep" dashboards. No promised income. If a network cannot confirm the sale, we do not pay for it, and we will not pretend otherwise.
If that sounds fair, apply once. The review usually takes a day.
