Refer other merchants

Share your affiliate link, and see the stores created through it in your dashboard.

If YNS works for you, the odds are you know someone else it would work for. The Affiliates page gives you a personal referral link and tracks the stores that sign up through it.

Open Affiliates in your dashboard. You'll see your profile with your referral code, your affiliate link, how many referrals you've made, and how long you've been a member.

Copy the link and share it wherever it fits — your newsletter, a community you're part of, a conversation with someone who's outgrowing their current setup.

Track your referrals

Once someone creates a store through your link, it appears in your Referred stores table with the store name, its domain, and its currency. The page shows a running count of how many stores were created using your link.

Tip: Referrals land best with context. "This is what I use, here's why it suits a store like yours" does far more than a bare link.

Who to share it with

The people most likely to stick around are the ones with a real product and a real reason to move — someone launching a shop, someone fed up with fees elsewhere, someone whose current platform can't do what they need. A referral to someone who was never going to sell anything helps nobody.

FAQ

I don't have a referral code.

The page will tell you if no code has been issued to your account yet. Get in touch through Get help and support.

When does a referral count?

When someone creates a store using your link. Referred stores appear in your table as they're created.

Can I share the link more than once?

Yes — it's a permanent link tied to your account, and there's no limit to how many stores can come through it.

Does my referral get anything?

Share the link and they land on YNS with your referral attached. Whatever's being offered at the time applies to them like any other new merchant.
