Carrd

Carrd is for people who need one good page, not a whole website project. A creator might use it for a profile or link-in-bio page. A founder might use it for a waitlist, product teaser, or early landing page. A consultant, designer, or small business can use it for a portfolio, event page, newsletter signup, or simple branded web presence without dealing with hosting, plugins, or a larger CMS.

The product is lightweight, but it is not only a toy site builder. The free plan covers simple sites, while Pro adds the parts that matter when a page becomes public-facing: custom domains with SSL, forms, embeds, widgets, analytics, larger media uploads, password protection, redirects, meta tags, custom fonts, and more site slots depending on the plan.

That makes Carrd easy to recommend in practical content. It fits tutorials about launching quickly, template roundups, creator toolkits, and comparisons for people deciding whether they really need a full website builder. The affiliate angle also matches the product: visitors can try Carrd with very little friction, then upgrade when they need a custom domain, form, embed, or more polished launch page.

Carrd's referral program is free to join from a Carrd account dashboard. After opting in, publishers get a personal referral link and a code they can share in tutorials, templates, newsletters, launch checklists, or creator resources. Carrd credits the referral when someone visits through the link or enters the code while upgrading or renewing a Pro plan.

The commission is 30% of the amount paid toward that referred user's next eligible Pro upgrade or renewal. Referral codes are single-use per user, so the same customer does not keep generating commission on later purchases. Earned balance can be used inside Carrd for upgrades or library items, or requested as a PayPal payout once the available payout balance reaches $25. Carrd says PayPal payouts are generally issued within five business days of request. No standard public cookie window is listed.
