You need a Cinema Set Free account to join.

The terms

What you earn and how it's counted.

30% for 12 months

Every payment a customer makes in their first year counts. That includes monthly and yearly plans, upgrades and credit packs.

A 30-day window

If someone clicks your link and signs up within 30 days, they count as yours. When two affiliates sent the same person, the first link wins.

Your own page

Your link, your code and your numbers sit in your Cinema Set Free dashboard: clicks, sign-ups and what you've earned.

Banners and clips

Logos, banners, screenshots and short demo clips, plus a few lines to paste under a video or into a newsletter.

Paid through Stripe

Stripe sends your money to your bank. Each commission waits 30 days in case the payment is refunded. Then it goes out with the next monthly payout. The minimum is $1.

The shoot schedule: six days with crew, cast and set times, a scene strip on day one, and lunch and wrap on the clock

Why customers stay

The script, the schedule, the call sheets, the crew app and the edit all live in Cinema Set Free, so a production keeps using it. You earn on those payments for a year.
