Per-member euro pricing and what 30% of it pays
Submagic prices in euros and per team member. On yearly billing, Starter is 12 euros a member per month, Pro 23 euros and Business 41 euros, billed annually; Starter is 19 euros on monthly billing.
At 30%, a solo creator on monthly Starter is worth 5.70 euros a month to you. A yearly Starter customer pays 144 euros, worth 43.20 euros a year; yearly Pro pays 276 euros, worth 82.80; yearly Business pays 492 euros, worth 147.60. Because the commission has no end date, each of those repeats on every renewal.
Teams multiply it. A three-person agency on yearly Pro pays 828 euros a year, so that one referral is worth 248.40 euros every year it renews.
The promo code is the real tracking tool here
Submagic credits any purchase made with your promo code to your account, whether or not the buyer came through your link. For short-form video creators this matters more than the link: viewers on TikTok, Reels and Shorts rarely click through from a description, but they will type a code they heard in the video.
It also covers the gap left by the missing cookie window. Submagic does not publish how long a click is tracked, so a code is the only attribution method whose rules are stated in full.
No paid traffic at all, and PayPal as the only exit
Most programs ban bidding on the brand name. Submagic goes further: "Paid ads are not allowed." If you use paid advertising, your commissions are not paid, and Submagic says it runs regular checks and may ask for proof of how you generated sales. That rules out boosting your own Submagic review or running ads to a comparison page.
Payment is PayPal only, once you clear $50, on the 7th of the month. If PayPal is unavailable or expensive where you live, factor that in before you build a channel around the program.
Submagic against OpusClip and CapCut
OpusClip, the other big AI clipping tool, pays 25% for up to 12 months on Essential and Pro plans. CapCut pays up to 35% recurring on CapCut Pro through Impact, but only in eligible regions. Submagic's 30% for life is the strongest long-tail deal of the three for any customer who stays more than a year.
Where OpusClip suits long-form podcasters who want clips cut automatically, Submagic sells on captions, B-roll and auto-edits for creators who already shoot vertical video. Pick the one your audience actually uses; with lifetime commission, retention is worth more than a higher first month.
