Describely Affiliate Program
Yes, Describely runs an open affiliate program that pays 30% on every sale from a customer you refer, with renewals included and no cap on earnings. A referral counts if the customer buys within 60 days of clicking your link, anyone can join without being a customer or owning a website, and the program runs on Post Affiliate Pro. The catch is the product's pricing: Describely now sells pay-as-you-go credits at $0.75 per product rather than a monthly plan, so "recurring" only pays if your referral keeps buying more products.

Recurring commission on a product with no subscription
The affiliate page was written for a subscription business. It promises 30% "on all referred sales, including subscription renewals". Describely's pricing page today describes something different: "pay-as-you-go at $0.75 per product, with no subscription and no long-term commitment", with the first 5 products free.
That changes what a referral is worth. There is no monthly charge to take 30% of, month after month. You earn when the store you referred buys another batch of product credits. A shop that writes descriptions for its whole catalogue once and then only tops up for new SKUs produces one sizeable commission and then a trickle. Treat the 30% as 30% of every purchase the account makes, not as a predictable monthly income line.
What 30% comes to at $0.75 a product
The arithmetic is simple because the price is per product. A referred store that buys descriptions for 100 products spends $75, and your 30% is $22.50. A store at the 500 product ceiling of the self-serve tier spends $375, which pays you $112.50. Data enrichment ($0.55 a credit) and image processing ($0.05 a credit) are also sold, and the page's wording, "all referred sales", suggests those count too, though it does not list them by name.
Above 500 SKUs Describely moves the customer to custom pricing through a sales call. Those are the accounts worth the most, and the affiliate page does not say whether a deal closed by Describely's sales team after your click is still credited to you. If your audience is mid-size retailers or agencies, ask before you build content around them.
What the page leaves out
Describely's affiliate page is short, and the site's Terms of Use contain no affiliate clauses at all. We could not find a published payout threshold, payout method, payment schedule, refund clawback rule or paid search policy. Those terms presumably sit inside the Post Affiliate Pro account you create at signup, so read them there before you invest in content.
What is published is generous on access: no customer requirement, no website requirement, and a starter kit of logos, social graphics, ad copy and testimonials.
Who this suits, and the alternatives
This is a niche program for a niche product. It fits people who write for Shopify, WooCommerce, Wix or Squarespace store owners, eCommerce agencies, and catalogue managers, because those are the only readers who need bulk product descriptions. General AI writing audiences will convert poorly.
If your readers are broader content marketers, the subscription writing tools pay more predictably. Writesonic pays 20% of every payment for up to 12 months, and Frase pays 30% recurring for 12 months, both on monthly plans that renew without the customer having to buy again.
