Invite-only · Launch-window terms locked for v1 creators

30% year one. 10% forever.

For fitness coach-creators whose audience already includes working coaches. Recurring commission, real attribution, and terms that don't get re-written when we scale.

Approved creators get a branded share link, a live dashboard, and payouts via Stripe Connect.

Is this you?

Who this program is for — and who it isn't.

We review every application by hand. Checking yourself against this list before you apply saves a week of back-and-forth for both of us.

A fit for v1

Apply
  • 10k+ on IG, YouTube, or TikTok — or a smaller audience that is specifically other working coaches.
  • Your content lives in fitness, nutrition, transformation, performance, or coaching-business education.
  • Coaches already DM you asking which platform to use. Your inbox has that pattern.
  • You actually coach, or did. You know what a weekly check-in, a photo log, and a payments chase feel like.

Probably not a fit right now

Skip for now
  • You’re still building audience and working coaches aren’t in it yet — apply again when that shifts.
  • Your niche sits outside the coach orbit (generic lifestyle, finance, comedy). Great channels — just not where our signups come from.
  • You want bounty-style affiliate math — one big payout per click, high volume, low trust. That isn’t this program.
  • You wouldn’t personally put your name next to a coaching tool. Neither would we.

On the fence? Apply anyway and tell us the edge case in the "why TrainedBy" box — we'd rather read it than guess.

Why join

Built for coach-creators, not affiliate farms.

Most affiliate programs pay you once and forget you. TrainedBy pays recurring because coaching is recurring — and the coaches you send us stay for years, not weeks.

Recurring, not bounty

30% of every paid invoice for the first 12 months, then 10% for the lifetime of the subscription. Earn while your recommendation is still earning for them.

Legacy-locked terms

Launch-window creators are locked into v1 commission terms. Future program changes don't touch your rate — your split is your split.

Peer-level product

TrainedBy is built by a coach for coaches. When you send people here, you're recommending a tool you'd actually use — not a landing page stitched to a CRM.

What you get the moment you're approved

Every piece already ships in production today. No "coming soon" tiles.

Your branded share link

A creator-branded landing page at trainedby.fit/r/<your code>. Prospects see your name, your photo, your endorsement — then land in checkout with your code auto-applied.

Live attribution dashboard

See every coach who signed up through your link, whether they've qualified, months active, cumulative paid, and exactly what you've earned — per currency.

Payouts on your schedule

Connect Stripe once. When your pending balance clears the currency minimum (£40 / $50 / ₹4,000), request a payout — admin reviews, then Stripe settles to your bank.

Founder / legacy recognition

Launch-window creators are the v1 cohort. Your terms are locked. You keep your spot through every pricing change we ever ship.

The product you're referring into

Coaches you send here sign up, pay, and start running their business the same evening. Photo-first meal logs, weekly cockpits, client signup flows, payments — in production, in use.

    Watch the dashboard. Once your balance clears the currency minimum, request a payout. Admin reviews every request, then Stripe settles.

FAQ

How do payouts actually work?+
You earn a commission on paid invoices from coaches who signed up through your code. Those earnings show up in your dashboard in the currency the coach paid in. Once your balance for a given currency clears the minimum (£40 / $50 / ₹4,000), you can request a payout. Admin reviews every request manually, and once approved, Stripe Connect transfers the funds to the bank account you connected during onboarding.
When do earnings become available?+
A referred coach's paid invoice starts showing up in your dashboard as earnings. Payouts are still reviewed manually before money is released, so creators always have a clear human review step rather than an instant auto-payout. Your commission terms stay the same: 30% for the first 12 months, then 10% for as long as that subscription stays active.
What happens after someone signs up through my link?+
The visitor lands on a creator-branded landing page at trainedby.fit/r/<your code>. If they click through to pricing, your code auto-applies at checkout. Once they sign up and pay, they're attributed to you in your dashboard and their earnings activity starts accumulating there.
Are my terms locked, or can you change them later?+
Launch-window creators are locked into v1 terms — 30% year one, 10% forever, per currency. We may launch future cohorts with different terms, but yours don't move. Your locked version is visible in your dashboard.
Can I apply if my audience is outside fitness?+
We're prioritising coach-adjacent audiences — fitness, nutrition, transformation, performance, health. If your audience is elsewhere but includes working coaches, tell us in your application and we'll take a look. We're deliberately selective so approved creators refer people who actually convert.
Do I need a certain follower count?+
No hard minimum. We care about audience quality and fit more than raw numbers — a 5k niche audience of working coaches is worth more than 100k generic followers. Tell us what you know about your audience in the application.
Is there a contract to sign?+
No paper. When you accept your approval email, you accept the v1 creator terms (visible in your dashboard). We can both end the relationship at any time — we pay out everything owed through your final referred invoice.
