When someone you refer becomes a verified Stay Staged member and places their first purchase, your revenue share activates. Your first 3 activated referrals earn 12% of everything they purchase through Stay Staged each quarter, per program rules.*
All additional referrals earn at the standard affiliate tier rates: 8% on referred member quarterly volume up to $49,999 and 10% on $50,000 or more. Tiers update automatically as your referrals' purchasing volume grows.
There is no minimum purchase requirement and no deadline for when a referral must purchase. Revenue share activates the moment your referred member makes their first purchase of any amount.
Revenue share paid quarterly on net sales. Q1 pays May 15. Q2 pays August 15. Q3 pays November 15. Q4 pays February 15.
Every approved Founding 50 member must make their first purchase within 30 days of approval. Members who do not purchase within 30 days convert to standard membership and their spot is released to the waitlist. This ensures all 50 founding spots are held by genuinely active buyers.
Go to staystaged.com and apply for membership. Select the level appropriate for your business. If you were referred, identify your referring partner in the application.
Stay Staged manually verifies all B2B applications. Once approved you will receive confirmation and access to your member dashboard.

Apply for Access* Revenue share applies for the life of the referred buying member's active membership, subject to Stay Staged program terms and the 180-day referred member inactivity policy.
** Revenue share is calculated on net sales: gross merchandise purchases minus returns. Sales tax, shipping, logistics fees, and other pass-through charges are excluded. Return terms, including restocking fees and return shipping costs, are set by each supplier and are not controlled by Stay Staged — these are the responsibility of the buying member and/or deducted from the return amount before it is applied to the net sales calculation.
