Your partner account is free and takes a few minutes to create. Two steps are easy to miss: **verifying your email** and **choosing Join programs**. ## 1. Sign up Go to **[affitor.com/signup](https://affitor.com/signup)** and create an account with Google or your email. ## 2. Verify your email If you signed up with email, open your inbox and click the verification link. You're signed in and taken to the welcome page, or straight back to the program you applied to if you started there. :::note You must verify your email before continuing. If the message isn't in your inbox, check spam. ::: ## 3. Choose Join programs The welcome screen asks **How will you use Affitor?** Choose **Join programs**, then **Continue**. :::warning Pick **Join programs**, not **Run a program**. Run a program puts you on the brand side, where you set up your own affiliate program. ::: If you started by applying to a program, signing in takes you back to that program to finish your application; the setup below can wait. ## 4. Finish partner setup Setup has three steps and opens right after you choose Join programs. You can leave with **Save and exit** at any point. Setup opens by itself once. After that, partner home shows a **Finish setup** card with how many steps are done and a **Continue:** button naming the next one. 1. **Your profile**: your name, prefilled from sign-up, and an optional photo (an existing account photo shows when there is one). Your partner code is shown here; programs see it on your links and it does not change. 2. **Get paid**: add a payout method available for your country and currency: Wise or a bank account (ACH or SWIFT). **Skip for now** is fine: you are asked again before your first withdrawal. 3. **Pick your first program**: find a program on the Marketplace and apply from its page. Invited by a brand? After you accept the invitation, **Finish your profile** opens the same setup. ## What happens next Your next move is to **browse the Marketplace and join a program**; your links and earnings build from there.
