Pixian AI Affiliate Program
No, you cannot join the Pixian AI affiliate program today. Pixian is one of four sites run by Cedar Lake Ventures, and Cedar Lake's affiliate page states that the program has been suspended and no new signups will be accepted. Affiliates already in it can keep referring, subject to admin review, under terms of 20% of a referred user's revenue for one year with a 30-day cookie.

Suspended at the Cedar Lake level, not just for Pixian
Pixian does not run its own program. Affiliates sign up with Cedar Lake Ventures, the company behind Pixian.AI, Clipping Magic, Vector Magic and Vectorizer.AI, and one account covers all four sites. The notice on that page now reads that the program "has been suspended and no new signups will be accepted".
So this is not a Pixian-only change you can route around through a sister site. None of the four tools is taking new affiliates. Cedar Lake gives no date for reopening.
What existing Cedar Lake affiliates still work under
Current affiliates can keep referring, but the notice adds that they are subject to admin review and should make sure their URL and description accurately reflect their affiliate operations. The terms they operate under are unusually generous on paper: 20% of net revenue from each referred user for 12 months from account creation, both subscriptions and license purchases counted, no minimum payout, and monthly PayPal payments.
Two details are easy to miss. Earnings only start once three or more referred users have completed a transaction, followed by a two-month hold-off to evaluate chargebacks. And the two documents disagree slightly on timing: the page says payment 25 days after the end of the month, the agreement says 30.
Why Pixian commissions were small even when open
Pixian is cheap by design. The web app offers free low-resolution use, and paid use is pay-as-you-go credits with no monthly fee, starting at EUR 4.62 for 250 credits. At 20%, a buyer of the smallest pack earned an affiliate under one euro. Heavy API users buying 100,000 credits for EUR 1,347.66 were the referrals that mattered, and those are developers rather than the general audience of a background-remover review.
Programs to promote instead
If you write about AI image editing, look at programs that are taking signups today. Palette.fm pays 30% on its photo colorization payments, and Secta Labs pays 20% on its AI headshot packages. Design platforms with broader audiences, such as Kittl and Leonardo AI, have their own pages in our directory with verified terms.
If you are an existing Cedar Lake affiliate, nothing published says your current referrals stop earning. Keep your site description up to date, since that is what the admin review looks at.
How to join the Pixian AI program

- Existing affiliates can log in at cedarlakeventures.com/affiliates and update their URL and description as the notice asks.
- To be told if the program reopens, check the Cedar Lake affiliates page periodically, since no notification list is offered.
