Interaction Design Foundation, commonly shortened to IxDF, is a design education membership for people building UX, UI, product design, and AI-related design skills. Junior designers, product managers, career switchers, researchers, developers, marketers, and design leaders use it for self-paced courses, master classes, career programs, certificates, community forums, local groups, job matching, and design resources. The product has been operating since 2002 and is positioned around membership access rather than buying one course at a time.
IxDF is useful when someone wants a structured design curriculum plus a professional community. A career changer can start with UX fundamentals and portfolio exercises, a working designer can add AI or human-centered design material, and a manager can point staff toward role-relevant certificates. The library and community also give publishers several specific angles: UX career paths, design certificates, AI for designers, local design networking, and practical materials for people who work near design even if their job title is not designer.
IxDF documents an in-house Educational Partners and affiliate flow in its FAQ and terms. Logged-in partners use referral links that add an `ep` parameter to IxDF URLs, then promote courses, membership, career programs, master classes, or other IxDF pages to an audience interested in design education. The public FAQ explains referral code behavior but does not expose a separate public application URL for new publishers.
The official FAQ says IxDF uses first-click attribution with first-party cookies that last 2 years, and that another campaign should not overwrite the first referral cookie. It also says partner commission is uncapped, available once the balance is over $100 USD, and commission requests are processed every Friday. IxDF's terms add that commissions are calculated net of refunds and chargebacks and are requested through the payout method on file. The exact public commission rate and payout rails are not stated, so those fields stay blank.
