Earn by sharing
IT education.
Introduce parents and guardians to ElyIT's IT certification courses. Families you refer get 5% off tuition, and you earn a commission each time one of them enrolls a student — the first course and every course after it.
Who can join
You must be 18 or older. Because commissions are paid through Stripe, you'll also need to complete Stripe's identity verification and provide US tax details (a W-9).
No minimum audience
There is no minimum follower count required. A 200-family co-op email list is exactly the kind of audience this program was built for.
Who this is for
Homeschool co-op directors, microschool leaders, newsletter writers, parent-group organizers, tutors, and creators who reach families of teens.
How it works
- 1Apply below. Tell us how you reach families — a co-op, a microschool, a newsletter, a parent group, a social audience. We review every application personally within 3–5 business days.
- 2Get your link & code. Once approved, you'll receive a unique referral URL and promo code to share with the parents and guardians you reach.
- 3Earn commissions. You earn a percentage of the tuition each time a family you refer enrolls a student — and every later course that student takes credits you too, with no code or link needed. Paid monthly.
Commission tiers
Your rate is set by how many different students you've referred, all-time.
Students 1–25
Counted all-time, not per year
Students 26–50
Counted all-time, not per year
Students 51+
Counted all-time, not per year
Each distinct student counts once, however many courses they take. When you cross a boundary, the new rate applies to commissions earned from that point on. Commission is calculated on tuition paid after the 5% affiliate discount, excluding the $35 application fee and taxes.
What that looks like in dollars
Take a $500 course as an illustration. A family uses your promo code, so they pay $475 after the 5% discount — and $475 is the amount your commission is calculated on.
At 5% (students 1–25)
$23.75 per course
At 7% (students 26–50)
$33.25 per course
At 10% (students 51+)
$47.50 per course
Tuition varies by course — see current course pricing to work the numbers for the courses you'd actually mention. If that student later takes a second course, it earns you commission again at your then-current rate.
5% off for the families you refer
Your promo code takes 5% off course tuition — including enrollments paid with Arizona ESA funds through ClassWallet.
Vests at 60 days
A commission vests automatically once the student's 60-day refund window closes. Nothing for you to chase.
Paid through Stripe
Vested commissions go out on the 1st of each month via Stripe Connect, after Stripe's identity and tax verification. No minimum payout threshold.
Credit that sticks
Links are tracked for 30 days after a click (best effort — subject to browser settings). Your promo code always credits you, and once a student is credited to you, they stay credited.
