Getting Started as Partner

Create your partner account, complete Stripe onboarding, join campaigns, and understand earning states.

Create your account

Partner registration supports both Google OAuth and email signup. The onboarding flow itself is split into required and optional steps.

1

Choose Google or email signup

On /for-partners, you can continue with Google or register with email and password. Google is supported, but the app also ships a full email path.

2

Enter the required minimum profile

The required field during registration is display name. The next step for sport, country, bio, and channels is optional and can be skipped.

3

Improve the profile later in settings

The full partner settings page supports avatar, bio, primary sport, country, website, social channels, audience size, and audience summary. The product also shows a profile-strength indicator based on those fields.

A stronger profile matters most on moderated campaigns, because organizers can review profile information before approving access requests.

Complete Stripe onboarding

Stripe onboarding is the practical gate for marketplace participation. Without it, the API blocks join, request, and invitation acceptance.

  • Joining an open campaign requires stripeOnboardingComplete.
  • Requesting access to a moderated campaign also requires completed Stripe onboarding.
  • Accepting a private invitation requires it as well.
  • Profile settings surface whether verification is pending or complete.

The dedicated setup flow is documented separately in Payout Setup.

Find and join campaigns

The partner area exposes marketplace browsing and campaign relationship states.

Explore

The Explore page fetches active marketplace campaigns and shows event basics, CPA net to partner, privacy, cap pressure, and relationship state.

Open campaigns

Open campaigns allow a direct join action that creates an approved tracking link immediately if cap and onboarding checks pass.

Moderated campaigns

Moderated campaigns create a pending request plus a pending partner link. Organizer review decides the outcome.

Private invitations

Private campaigns are joined through invitation tokens. Approved acceptance creates the partner link if capacity allows.

Promote with your tracking link

Approved relationships expose the BibSync tracking link and campaign-specific promotion constraints.

Tracking link format

Approved links use the BibSync tracking domain and a per-link slug, for example https://bibsync.link/r/your-slug.

Promotion rules

Each campaign exposes which channels are allowed: social media, email marketing, SEM bidding, and coupon sites.

Media kit visibility

Media assets are always visible to approved partners. Open campaigns also expose them before approval on the partner-facing side.

Campaign detail access

Approved and revoked relationships can open the partner campaign detail view. Pending and rejected states are redirected back to Explore.

How earnings work

Partner metrics and payment timing follow registration status and organizer payment cycles.

1

Registrations are attributed to your link

Registrations can appear as pending review, approved, or paid depending on organizer and billing state.

2

Organizer review decides billable status

Rejected registrations never count in organizer metrics and do not create payable earnings.

3

Payment happens after organizer checkout

Partner transfers happen only after the organizer has paid the cycle and transfer processing succeeds.

BibSync tracking attribution uses a 30-day click window. That affects whether a later registration still belongs to your original click.

Common questions

Can I sign up without completing the full profile?

Yes. Registration only requires display name. The richer profile fields can be added later, but they matter for moderated approvals.

Can I join campaigns before Stripe is ready?

No. The marketplace APIs block join, request, and invitation acceptance until Stripe onboarding is complete.

What if a link is revoked?

Revoked links still redirect visitors to the destination page, but new traffic stops generating attribution and commissions.

Do all campaigns show the same assets?

No. Media-kit visibility depends on approval state and campaign privacy.
