How referrals count

Someone who opens your link and makes an account within 30 days is your referral. If they opened another affiliate’s link first, they are that affiliate’s.

The 30-day window

Opening your link leaves a cookie in that browser for 30 days. If the person makes a Cinema Set Free account in that time, in the same browser, they are your referral.

  1. If the browser already holds another affiliate’s cookie, the first click wins and yours doesn’t replace it.
  2. An account made before the click is not a referral.
  3. Every customer belongs to one affiliate, for good.

When a sign-up is credited

The sign-up is credited the first time the new account opens the dashboard in that browser. That happens right after sign-up for almost everyone. If they buy a plan before they make an account, the checkout carries your link with it and the sign-up is credited when the payment goes through.

A sign-up from your own account, your own email or your own card is not credited. See the rules.

The Results table

The Results table in your Affiliate tab has a column for the Last 30 days and one for All time.

Row What it counts
Clicks People who opened your link. The same person on the same day counts once. Search engines and link previews don’t count.
Sign-ups Accounts credited to you, by the day they were credited.
Paying customers Those sign-ups who are on a paid plan or have bought a credit pack.

The numbers are counted again each time you open the tab.
